Leaving for a Bit

Post by Stion Gyas on Tue Oct 06, 2009 6:26 pm

I don't know why, but I'm really struggling with precalculus. It could be that my previous learning in mathematics didn't quite cover it, or I'm just dense. I don't know. But, until I get my grade back up, I won't be logging into this place again.

For those who are RPing with me.

Sephiris:
Digital_Muse: I hope you don't mind, but control of Tuula goes to you.
Silvone: I hope you don't mind, either, because I'll be giving control over to you.

Kalon, if neither Silvone or Digi can handle the extra load, feel free to let my characters disappear for a while.

Back Alley:
I'm out.

Honor Amongst thieves:
I'm out.

So, sorry for the sudden disappearance, and this is good-bye for now.

Good luck with PreCalc. You aren't dense, it's not easy Sad

Holy crap man! You better hope I don't make Barthon eat your character alive! And then feed the little bits to Simion!

Good luck though! I know what it means to struggle in math, though personally I would give up math before FOG...but thats just me Very Happy I'll do my best with Brenard...but I'm not very good at describing his style of fighting, so he may be on the back-burner for a bit.
Anyway, good luck. Hope to see you back soon!

Just do some research on fencing, I guess. Very Happy

Good luck with math, Stion! Homework

Don't forget to go to your teacher for extra help so you can get back here quicker!

I'm sure you'll get the hang of it in no time!

It took me two years to learn I was never going to get the hang of Math Analysis. The second year I finished the class with a record-breaking 20%...

I kind-of like math, though it's not my favorite.

The only two things I don't get in math are Proofs and Imaginary Numbers.

Graphs are my least favorite part of math. There is nothing more evil than a graph. Except for polar graping. Polar graphing is amazing. AMAZING. I could stare at polar graphs for a long time >>

Good Luck, Stion. I'll do my best with the twins.

Math is evil. That is all.

Good luck with Pre-Calculus, Stion. We'll miss you. I wasn't very good at pre-calc, either. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't raise my grade above an A-... Science was definitely worse, though... ._.

Best of luck in your class, Stion. I never took calculus or pre-calc, but I've always struggled with math myself, so I imagine it's not easy. Hang in there!

Thanks for your encouragement, everyone, but I'm now officially POed. The short story is difficult to comprehend without knowing the long story, so I'll forgo the former, and describe the latter.

All during my sophomore year (last year) at high school, I basically worked my ass off to complete a college registration form (Basically the whole deal, with some stuff added in). The hard work proved to be well worth it. My ACT scores sky-rocketed, the form was without mistake, and I somehow crammed all sorts of information into a 250 word essay they wanted. Two days after submitting my registration, I got the phone call. Come in next week for an... interrogation. (I forgot the actual word, just now.)

I go in, get interrogated, and am told not to be polite. (Don't call me "ma'am.") I leave rather shaken, it's my first college interview, and I think I failed miserably. I go home, stare at a TV screen, and then blunder through a day or two of school. Until I get the call. I'm proud to inform you, Cody Ander, that you have been accepted to attend Florida Gulf Coast University.

*fast forward*

My parents aren't liking my exam scores (Neither am I), and send an E-mail to the lady that founded, and runs Collegiate High School (What I'm in). We talk, she's disappointed, I'm POed. She tells me that she totally, definitely does NOT think we can bring my C up to even a B. It's totally impossible. I mean, I only have two-thirds of the semester to do it.

Yesterday, she appears suddenly behind me. Tells me that she is disappointed and has contacted the Officer of the Registrar, or what not to drop my class. I'm shocked, stunned, and POed, yet again. Still, the likelihood of my class being dropped is pretty low. Until I read the E-mail this morning.

So, I'm officially out of PreCalc, and officially, totally, and completely pissed at the counselor. My counselor who plowed ahead, and, without asking for my own counsel (It's a two-way system, because it affects my life to no small degree.) drops my class. Yay.

To mark my return, an equation.

Where:
Lenore = Precalculus class

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak October,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow-sorrow for the lost Lenore-
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore-
Nameless here for evermore.




Without further ado, I return to the FOG.

That's total crap... People are stupid. I'm sorry you had to go through that, but I'm sure everyone is glad that you're back.

YOU TOLD ME YOU WERE 15!

Spoiler:
Ah what the hell, in case you people haven't figured it out yet, I'm really 19. xD


Anyway, that really sucks, dude. What were you needing that class for anyway? Studying to be a physicist or something?
