I HATE SCHOOL. I respect and admire all you geniuses who study and all that stuff that gets you your good grades, but seriously, I hate school. Especially my Electric Circuits class. Gee-zus I hate that class. The following is a rant which you can skip reading.



I have no plans of using what I "learn" in this class any time in the future. Never. Never ever. Other classes I can see having some use for, but this class, I seriously doubt that I will have anything to do with it when my college career is over. And it can't be over soon enough. Sweet mother I wish I were done with this class already. Firstly, the professor I have was not my first choice for this class. I was unable to get the "good" professor when I registered. At first I thought he was cool. He looks like Mr. Miyagi. And he sure does explain things thoroughly, which is good. But even his practice midterm looks like it wants to kill us. I showed another person who's in the "good" professor's class and he said, "Your professor is a sneaky bitch." Apparently, my professor hides stuff so you have to analyze the question and all that stuff. Fun.



Secondly, I thought this only happened in grade school. Mr. Miyagi likes to call on everyone in class. He starts at some arbitrary point and circles the room. No matter what, I always get called on. Always. Damn it. ALWAYS. Some people get lucky and never get called on because class is over. I'm not lucky. Maybe three times already, class was almost over but lucky me, I get the last question. It doesn't matter where I sit, I get called on. And pretty much always, too, I don't know the answer. And then he gives this disappointed look or something and I'm thinking, you should know by now, professor, I am a dumbass. I think a classmate was being nice when he asked me "You ever notice how he asks the both of us the hardest questions?" This classmate doesn't always get his answer right, but he will on occassion. So what happens in a typical class?



"Daniel. What do you think?"



"... [thinking look]... uhm..."



"Daniel. Can you help me out here?"



"...[thinking "Damn it, professor! Why don't you help me out here!?"]..."



"What if we do this [explains some stuff]?"



"... [thinking harder] ... is it ..."



"How about this?"



"...[thinking "man. this sucks. move on to someone else already]..."



"Daniel?"



"...[thinking "if this chair weren't permanently attached to the ground, I think I'd throw it at you"]..."



"Ok. Anyone else know the answer?"



Fun. Always fun.
