Off The Wall / Re: Because I'm teaching...
« on: February 28, 2010, 11:16:22 AM »Buuuuuut whatever this is completely off topic and it's not like either of us has the full story anyway so whatever y'know whatever whatever.
Fair enough. It is off topic, like you said. Plus I like how you mention RPM's own High School Principal up above!

« on: February 28, 2010, 10:02:08 AM »So she's having problems fitting in. And the teacher's noticed this and wants to help. And so you recommend acting like a dick in response to this?
What the [tornado fang], man?
First of all, "fitting in" is overrated, especially in high school, because after it's all said and done she's most likely never going to see those people again, except for those select group of friends she already has and wants to keep in contact with. Second, this is solely judged on her description of what kind of person her teacher is. She said her teacher thinks that everyone should be the same, which suggests that her teacher is a conformist. I personally don't think conformity is a good thing, especially for somewhere as meaningless as high school, for the reasons I stated above. Throughout her posts on RPM, Sakura already seems like an intelligent girl with a good head on her shoulders who's picked on in high school because she is smart and hard-working. I have no idea whether this is true or not since I don't see her offline, so I'm simply judging based on what she's said in the past. If this is true, she'll definitely be fine after high school's over with. Lastly, like I said this is something that "I" would do because "I" am a wise-ass. Sakura's not going to do this. She already stated what's most likely going to happen. LoL, most people are too shy or too intelligent to do something like I suggested. I am not!

« on: February 28, 2010, 09:23:24 AM »It was probably because of the fact that a different teacher gave it to me and she thinks she knows me, as if.
Oh, I'd still bring it up though. Again, I'm a wise-ass. I was all throughout high school and I still am today. What I would do is literally not only bring it up, but FLAUNT the award in her face and state "You say I need to become a 'functioning' member of society, yet this award says 'Outstanding Participation' on it. So according to this award, clearly I'm not the problem here!"

I have at least 3 friends I hope to keep in contct with after college because thier pretty dependable and one of them had a plan to get a house and let me and one of the other guys live with him somewhere during college in the middle of all the colleges we plan to go to. The only down sides are that those 2 are a little religous and obviously I'm not, a few political differences, and the other guy can briefly snap over the littlest thing and gets obessed with the stupidess things.
Let me give you another piece of advice, young one. Living with friends can possibly end REALLY badly. You know those little quirks you just mentioned? Those are quirks you see when you hang out with them either in or outside of school. However, when you hang out with them you have that "buffer zone" which allows you to still remain friends with them and get along with them, somewhat. If you live with them, that buffer zone will be gone. You will be dealing with those quirks day in and day out, and at first it won't seem like much, but then they will start to compound upon each other and soon you might start to see even more quirks. It goes both ways too, whereas they might start to notice your quirks more too.
This is just one of many scenarios though. For all I know, you could be ever closer friends because of it. For me though, I love my friends, but I'd never live with them.

« on: February 28, 2010, 08:35:05 AM »Take me and my Spanish teacher, she's a decent person but the problem is that she thinks that every single person should be mostly the same, I think she's too young to realize that it is most certainly not the case.
For example she says that you should call waiter in a restraunt a server because she thinks it's their proper title and thinks they'll feel a little insulted if you call them a waiter. Now if it was me I would simply refer them as Ms or Mr since that is always polite and it just feels akward to say "excuse me waiter, server, or table server" to me.
Well if she honestly believes that every person should be the same, she's living in a dream world. Also, from my experience, no one calls a waiter a waiter, waitress, server, or anything like that. Most of the time you don't call them anything. Good to know you're polite, young one!

Anyway because I cried my teacher wants to meet with my mom to tell her what's been going on with me and to try and fix it so I can be a "function" member of society or some crap like that. She also said that she wanted to talk about a award that I recently got for "Outstanding Participation" since from the look of things she really doubts my abilities. Luckly my mom won't probably listen to her crap, because she too was a loner when she was growing up in Cuba, Spain, and America, unless it is something viable.
Well that doesn't make much sense. If you just got an award for "Outstanding Participation" then why would you need to be fixed to become a "functioning member of society?" See, I'd ask the teacher that, cause I'm a wise-ass!

Also something in my mind is nagging me that the only reason she became a high school teacher in the first place is because her best years were in high school and she doesn't want to leave it. I mean she went to Spain for a year after College and knows her Spanish pretty well despite being in her late 20s single and has a degree in Spanish and yet she chose to teach at the high schoool she went to and graduated. Not to mention she's the cheer coach so clearly she was definitly a preppy in her high school years. She probably thinks that she can show people that high school is fun despite the fact that it's usually one of the worse and akward times in a person's life but is really deluding herself in that aspect.
Well people become teachers for different reasons. Some do it because they love having summer's & major holidays off. Others do it because they really want to try and make a difference in someone's life. Like you said, high school was probably fun for her because if she's the preppy you say she was, her high school experience was indeed awesome. It can be awesome for some and awkward for others. It really all depends on one's own personality and experiences as well. I mean, technically my high school experience was very good. My best friends are people I met in High School.
I will offer two pieces of advice though, for times after High School:
-College is definitely better, but make sure you go for what you want
-Try your absolute best to get a job/career in the field you want, because when responsibility comes crashing down upon you and you really hate your job, high school will seem like a [tornado fang]ing breeze.

Well one of my favorite things to read in High School, and in general, was Shakespeare. I joined that class and got an A in it, cause I love me some Shakespeare. But that's me, and I understand Shakespeare isn't for everyone.
Well, since it's an English class, and since you're into creative writing, I feel that it'd be best to find out what the students are into, and then have them creatively write about it. It could be a fanfic about Cartoons, a poem about video games, song lyrics to Facebook, or something weird like that. I mean, you can also always go with the classics like A Catcher In The Rye, then show them parts of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex to show the students how The Laughing Man was inspired by Salingers work. 1984 is always a high school favorite. If I were a teacher, I'd try to connect with the students. I've always found that if I like the teacher, I'll actually put more effort into the class.

« on: February 27, 2010, 07:37:47 AM »No it's more than that, Michelle was a member here as well. She was a lot like Hitomi, from what I can remember, but a bit more crass than her. She once started a heated disscussion between her and PB on whether Rasberries or Strawberries superior, Michelle taking the former and PB sideing with the latter.
She disappered shortly after I became a member, back when I...was a n00b. *shudder*
Yeah, that's the same Michelle. Also, I was the one who started that discussion, and I'm still right too. Raspberries are the most evil of berry, and should be abolished!

« on: February 27, 2010, 05:01:11 AM »Also, try firing charged Voomerangs when you get the chance. A lot of people seem to forget that it hits more than once, so you can often get a free combo off.
I do try at times, but a lot of the time I tend to mad rush with him. Heh, probably how I [tornado fang] up the super at times!

Isn't that just SUCH a great feeling?
My first time I got someone to ragequit felt SO good!Relevant:

Joe's short, but he's still vulnerable to a wide majority of combos. Roll's a lot harder to work around, though, as you have to re-design your combos and everything!
Okay, so I'm really glad to know I'm not the only one who has an issue with Roll's height at times!
I plan to. You are the only Joe user I know so I don't have much practice against him. I actually use Roll because of the Original TvsC. I just love her song.
Actually, I think I'm getting a lot better with the Viewtiful Joe. I've just gotta stop pulling out the Big Gun when it's SUPPOSE to be Mach Speed!
Also, you all have not seen fury until you've seen Lou's and my friend JoshMack use Alex.

Okay, I'm back.
Also, Roll's height gives her SUCH an advantage over Jun, as a couple of my combos with her do not work on Roll.
