Day 3: My teachers are awesome

I'm sure that everyone reading this has had at least one of THOSE teachers - you know, the ones that make you fall asleep in class, the ones that don't really know what they're talking about, etc. Luckily, we've all had at least one of THOSE teachers, too - the ones that are funny, goofy, really cool, and just have some REALLY great hair.

This semester, I have been lucky enough to have gotten pretty much all great teachers. My first period (Bio 20) is like THE stereotypical English teacher. Old, obsessed with people being on time, wants you to have a portfolio of every single assignment to be handed in with each test, etc. Luckily, she's not quite as strict as she was at the beginning of the semester, and she's turned out to be rather sweet (as long as you hand in your assignments like a good little minion). Best part? She likes me! :D Dear lord, if she didn't like me, I'd be so screwed. XD My homeroom is Math 20, and the teacher is AWESOME. Definitely one of the best I've ever had, if not THE best. A lot of the classes begin with him paying a few levels of Mario on his Wii, and sometimes he just announces at the start of the period, "You know what? I don't feel like teaching today. I'm too lazy. Let's have a Wii tournament!" And then we legitimately play on the Wii for the whole class. WIN. the best part is, though, he's actually a REALLY good teacher. I mean, I'm good at math, but he makes it seem simple beyond belief. (Even when it's actually not.) He's pretty awesome! 

My Japanese teacher is SO Japanese. She's super cute! She even bows a little, just out of instinct, when she shakes people's hands. She's also SUPER good at teaching. If someone else was teaching Japanese, I don't think I'd be doing nearly as well. My afternoon classes, history and English, are also pretty great. The history teacher isn't outstanding, but he's not bad either, and he makes a real effort to make a class notorious for being dull a little more exciting. We're learning about the Industrial Revolution right now, and he's managed to relate both Frankenstein (yes, the original novel) and Star Trek to this unit. (We watched the episode where they introduce the Borg on Wednesday. Something to do with how people view technology.) My English teacher, on the other hand, is EPIC. He has the most awesome hair I have ever seen a teacher wear, and on anyone else it would look AWFUL, but he manages to pull it off. (I mean, he does look slightly nerdy, but that's forgivable as he teaches classes for freaky smart people and he himself is a freaky smart person.)

Anyways, the parent-teacher interviews were today (technically yesterday), and not only were there DELICIOUS cookies, but my teachers basically just complimented me. I FEEL SO LOVED. Dear lordeh I am lucky.

IN BRIEF: Having many great teachers who assign little homework, are great at their jobs, and like you is awesome, especially when you never handed in a major assignment in history but your teacher never noticed (or if he did, he never commented on it). And cookies are DELICIOUS. Yes, it does happen to be after 2:00 in the morning. What? I party hard!
