We have to write a 3 page long essay about stuff that's going on in our lives right now. Like who we're interested in stuff, which for me is a big no one. I also have to write stuff like "one good deed you did that not many people know about". We get this paper back in senior year.
Bleh. I hate health.
Health is the best class. EVER. Last Health class we played with Lego. And the one before we went on the internet and did personality tests. =D And next we're learning about good food choices. Which is something that we have to do in Health every year. And then we cover smoking. And drugs. But we learn that every year until graduation. >>
And we're getting into Sex Ed in January. But until then... *fiesta*

Ew. Sex Ed was terrible.
We've had a couple fun classes. One time we got to all lie down (big classroom) and she put on soothing music. We were allowed to doze off. That was a couple years ago.
We had a class a couple weeks ago about stress. We got comfortable in our chairs (small classroom) and she put on soothing music and told us to relax 'n' stuff.
May the Triforce be with you.

Yo. Still obsessed with WoW. Rand my alt through Shadowfang Keep and got sum phat loot. w00t.
Also, this weekend was Canadian Thanksgiving (FOUR days off! Woo!) and we had a big party with turkey and dinner buns and green beans and fruit salad and banana bread and Timesplitters and Super Smash Bros. Was fun times.
Ah, I remember this computer class I had to take freshman year. We had to do assignments we'd done over in 8th grade, so we finished them in no time and raced each other to beat Bubble Struggle. I was the first to beat Bubble Struggle 2
That sounds like an awesome Thanksgiving, Doodleshark! I haven't got to play the new Super Smash Bros as we don't have a Wii.
Yep, my brother is playing WoW right next to me, and is about to turn level 40. He needs about 200 more xp.
Heso! Ah, Sex Ed... I spent two days in that class. Some jerk in the back of the room couldn't go five minutes without saying something perverted. I went home and wrote an AP English-quality essay about why the whole concept of giving teenagers an excuse to talk like that is absolutely insane, got my mom to sign a note saying she agreed, and I never had to go back again :)
I'll never understand why they don't just drop the three extra letters and let 'Hel' class use the name it was obviously intended to have...
Aaand now I've got 25 minutes to write an essay before Gurren Lagann comes on. Crap.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate." Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Ahh sex ed, a class I literally never attended. I got the flu that year. Really, REALLY bad. I missed about 3 weeks of school I think, and when I came back I found out that I had completely missed it. I'm sure there's a statistic out there saying that I have a higher chance of getting someone pregnant or something. Also, Nordic Mythology for the win. You're going to love the ending of Gurren Lagann Silver, it is truly epic!
Konbanwa.
Hm...sex ed...closest thing I ever had to that was "family life" in sixth grade where all the other girls had to have "giggle breaks" every five or ten minutes. I didn't find anything worth giggling over, since I already knew everything they were teaching us (I blame that one CD-ROM I had lying around at home that detailed all the body systems, including reproductive). After getting into middle school, everything was purely biological, and the Biology Honors/AP Biology textbooks don't focus on it much. Too busy detailing the functions of the mitochondrial inner membrane and other wonderful things like that.

But since I can't build a sukkah here or anything, it's probably not going to change much for me. I'll go to a service or two and skip school a couple of days, but that's about it. Apartments kinda limit Sukkot observance.
And this is why I like my college, religion isn't a good excuse for skipping exams
Tell that to people who have to skip days sometimes cause of religion. No way I'm getting failed on a test because I couldn't go that day.
Hi! I was homeschooled and we didn't do a sex ed class. If I remember right, I think I just looked up the details in the encyclopedia one day. I totally agree with Silver though, the whol concept of a school class just seems like a bad idea. Besides, these days TV and the internet teach kids all about that stuff, whether they want to learn or not.
