Life After AP

<p>So what are you doing in your AP classes now that they (some) are done with?</p>

<p>Lit: Working on Senior Project Presentations
Calculus: Playing Ping Pong for an hour and 30 min everyday
Gov’t: Not sure, but getting a 1 on the test.</p>

<p>physics: two tests and a bunchhh of labs
lit: writing a novel and reading a fiction novel
econ: project</p>

<p>Krishna, we have a physics project too. Well last year’s kids had one, so I’m guessing we’ll have one too. =[</p>

<p>Lit - same as the lady above
Spanish - Project
Art - 1 1/2 more projects
Calc - Project</p>

<p>gov - field trip
bio - projects…what a beeze
spanlang - video projects
lit - acutual work. ***?!
calc - chess/jenga/music videos/bruce lee quotes</p>

<p>Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend.</p>

<p>Lit: Sudokus and flipping backpacks
Econ: Some government project
APES: Preparing for the final, field trips, etc.</p>

<p>my favorite…</p>

<p>Question: What are your thoughts when facing an opponent?
Bruce: There is no opponent.
Question: Why is that?
Bruce: Because the word ‘‘l’’ does not exist.
A good fight should be like a small play…but played seriously. When the opponent expands, l contract. When he contracts, l expand. And when there is an opportunity… l do not hit…it hits all by itself (shows his fist).
Any technique, however worthy and desirable, becomes a disease when the mind is obsessed with it.</p>

<p>Statistics - Playing bridge (the card game) and having a tournament
Psychology - Random movies (Monte Python and the Holy Grail is first)
Lit - Analyzing literature from perspectives aside from formalist (the type we’ve been taught all year – to analyze at face value) such as psychological, historical, mythological, etc.</p>

<p>Go figure, and my other two classes are beginning guitar and student aide (so basically not really classes). Just when I thought I’d be free of all work… my lit class keeps going =/</p>

<p>Yeah, lit is horrible. It seems like everyone else’s lit class is doing some kind of project. But even some other classes are still doing work. Weird. So how bout that gov’t test. I 1’ed it.</p>

<p>WHAT?? I thought it was honestly one of the easiest AP tests I’ve taken (including French!!! and i SPEAK French!!!)</p>

<p>But no worries, I cancelled my Stat test and am not anticipating amazing things from Environmental Science tomorrow…</p>

<p>I’m actually not too worried about APES, the curve is really low for that test. Don’t let the low pass rate worry you.</p>

<p>Calc BC: chapter test on polar/parametric equ.
Bio: Party, Party, Party. We have a banquet this Friday…Yay :stuck_out_tongue:
Chem: ‘fun’ labs</p>

<p>Stat: after this fri’s final (ugh it should’ve been before the AP test)- Movies, movies, movies
Lit: Poet Presentation
Gov: Presentation on “Money Makes the World Go Around” by Barbara Garson
Enviro: Endangered Species project</p>

<p>my classes don’t meet after the aps</p>

<p>econ: go onto some macro (its the micro class), write a paper, take final
calc: hyperbolic stuff, other useful calc knowledge not on ap test, final
physics: take final, project, no more class
not in gov anymore =D</p>

<p>so i’m glad to hear that i am not the only one with more lit work to do. i have to do a shakespeare project. read the play and do an imovie or something like that. 12% of our grade.
but in gov, we are playing war games. it’s this super involved game my teacher made up where you are a country and you have to fight wars with other countries to get what you want. you win by rolling dice. lol.</p>

<p>sorry, but i don’t think he invented that game lol. I played it in 6th grade. We were empires?? We had hero’s, soldiers, and wizards I think. My teacher said we could steal so thats what we did. It’s a really fun game though. I wish I can bring back the days.</p>

<p>haha. he obviously didn’t come up with the idea. but he invented the countries, the scenarios, general playing techniques, etc. </p>

<p>we played when he was our teacher 2 years ago for world cultures, and he even included spies that no one knew about. only the spies knew. i guess they did their job the right way. lol.</p>

<p>isnt this war game supposed to be like risk? haha</p>

<p>mmmm. sure. why not.</p>

<p>i would have no clue because i have never played. im sure its similar though. minus the board.</p>
