Woodshop is awesome. You can lots of stuff there. I was going to make a sword when I had woodshop in the 9th grade but I didn´t have enough time to finish it.

The easiest class I ever had (out of both high school and one year of college) would be Computer Applications. I think that's the name. The entire course literally consisted of learning how to use Excel and Access, with a couple tests and one exam thrown into it as well. Coupled with the fact that it was quite easy to take the work home to do, and that most of the spreadsheets took at most, 45 minutes to complete The room the class was in was also arranged in a way that it was easy to have other stuff open at the same time without the teacher noticing. That was a course I had in college, as well.

As for the class I found to be the most fun, it'd be Grade 12 English, which was obviously in high school. I enjoy writing (although I haven't recently), which was a major part of the class, as would be expected. We also had more out-of-class work than in class, but only a bit of it was outside of the school. The journal entry we had to write each week was nice to do as well. The idea behind it was to list some things about the book you were reading at the time, such as new characters, interesting plot twists, and other such things, as well as being able to write stuff that didn't necessarily have to do with school. Each entry had to be a page long, which didn't pose a problem, as most of mine spanned two sheets, and sometimes more I still have it at home, in my room. It's rather funny, seeing that I failed Grade 9 English, and barely wrote anything in my journal at all, while in Grade 12, I passed with about an 85% average at the end, and got a 50/50 for both stuff about the book I was reading, and extras in my journal

The only other class that comes to mind as being fun was Grade 10 Geography, mainly because me and another person threw Joe's (one of our friends at the time) pencil case out the window He did that plenty of times to me as well though, so don't think it happened without revenge

There are other classes I've taken over the years that I've liked, or have been exceptionally easy, but the above are the ones that stand out the most

I'm just going to run off all the ones I saw and a few extras...

English: Piss easy for me. Course I probably hold the record for longest post on here anyways. It wasn't always that way, though. Not until 12th grade did I really get a feel on writing out the English language as I should. Just sucks that the teacher, who taught me all of what I pretty much use now, died only a few months ago.

Computer Class: Gee I wonder how people will score on a forum dedicated to ROM Hacking...

Physical Education: Back in the day when I was a stick, oh god...nowadays, though, I might be better off. Just wish I didn't have the tendency to get asthmatic at every little thing.

Chemistry: Why do people think this is hard when it's really not? Only when you get into ORGANIC chemistry does it start taking off. When you have to start diagramming disaccharides, run. But seriously, I must've tutored YD and several others over the past year in the course and it's really not that hard...which makes me wonder about the teachers...

Math: Ugh. It's really anything geometrical that I fail at. Unfortunately, that's Calc for the most part.

Biology: Not too bad, not too dull, not too great either.

Band: Back in the day, pretty much top of the class. Top of the class happened to be below average, period. Oh well, breeze course then.

History: History, Gov, Politics period I just plain hate relating too or even learning. I really don't know why but I'll take a guess that it was a lack of application, lack of caring, and a lack of intellectual teachers in the subject since the third grade for me.

Psychology: I probably should be better at this, but I'm really not, and the only reason is that I don't really recall going through terms or I'm not one to effectively analyze what brain disease someone's suffering from, etc. I may psychoanalyze, but not to the degree where it's nuts.

Philosophy: Arguably the suprise course for me when I came into college. I really can't believe that I'm nailing the courses like I am, but then I guess it's really how far you can use your mind past what you know. Is the light on or is there no light. Is there spoon, Neo?

Any language course: Let's face it; contrary to my original name, I've never once had a Japanese -course-, they just aren't taught here. Spanish was all I had and I pretty much sucked at it.

Physics: Ehhh...probably my area of low tolerance in general. Once we get to electrical circuits, however...

Speech: Probably the turnaround class for myself, period. Don't think I'd be as vocal had I not had this course in college or just outgoing, at least. Still kinda shy, but if I had to picked to be leader again to do a 45 minute speech with a group of four very nervous people about something to solve and debate it, I could. Surprising that I got lead role there when everything else in high school landed me dead last most times.

That's about it, I think.

English:

Computer science: - When I had this in grade 7, the teacher gave me a fixed mark 1 (=A) at the very beginning and allowed me to ... use the internet in computer classes. Reason for that is, in grade 6, I applied to a Saxony-wide Informatics contest for grades 7/8 and made first place. (Dead easy, again.)

Maths: Being good at them and stuff.

Music: Had piano lessons since I was three, and I have a quite good sense for melodies. Hence this is quite easy for me.

Latin:

Physics: It's a breeze. And with a teacher like ours (I remember how he once had us answering a certain question in a test which could have two different results (one of them, of course, was false) and had both of them taken for correct.), it becomes even easier.

Chemistry: Interesting, thus easy.

Arts: It is a total riddle to me how I manage to be good at that. I mean, I SUCK at anything but drawing with pencils.

I took music classes from 4th grade til high school, playing flute and sometimes a few other instruments. I used to be okay on the piano, but I've lost all talent there. My stepdad is a musician, all piano for sounds, and he taught me. But that was a long time ago.
I always got an A in my music classes. In fact, I went all through school until 10th grade with all A's every year.

Blah, my schools were poor and didn't have music classes. Well they never gave it to you. It's like you'd ask for a class and then they wouldn't give it to you and gave you some other crappy class . In HS I never had enough room on my schedule for anything

I like Social Science the most but the class I know will be the easiet in terms of exams is Managment.

I have History and Spanish which I know full well I will pass with a C.

I detest History and Spanish, well the Professor talks too much bull for me to give a damn.

Overall, English has been easy for me as well as a few Sciences (Astronomy, Physics, and others)

History (Any of them) make me puke.

Math, well if I apply myself it is a breeze but really...apply myself in school, come on.

I just found out my course list today:
  • Business (bleh, but not much choice)
  • Parenting (more about taking care of yourself than a kid I don't even have a kid...)
  • Philosophy (could be interesting)
  • Undeterminted (schools around here really got their stuff together )


Seems survivable (and then NO MORE SCHOOL... until college ), but nothing I would have chosen. I just wish they had Japanese and computer courses that weren't piss-easy (beginner's Visual Basic... I confused the teacher constantly, and he wasn't what I'd call slow in the head* ). Something I actually want to learn and/or don't already know.

*Actually, I'd say idiot. But he wasn't.

I didn't start liking history until about Sophmore year when my teacher did decent activities that actually did help me learn and get the highest grade so History I liked as time went on. Back in Middle school it was okay just something I passed and said whatever to.

Math classes have always come pretty easily to me, along with english, I just never seem to do my work because it's so tedious. Only when I'm actually interested in what I'm writing about (see: Story Forum) do I really put forth any effort.

My current class roster...

Calculus 141: Easy as hell: I took the class two years ago.
Writing 106 (for technical and field manuals): Also easy, I just better get myself a decent topic that I'm interested in.
URI 101 (changes and transformations): A waste of my valuable time.
CSC110 (intro to computer programming in C++) : Pretty fun, I get along well and I understand the way things work really easily. Algorithms are fun to look at.
CSC201 (intro to computer programming in VB) : Long and boring, but at least I'm learning some syntax stuff.

I remember gym always being kinda hard for me until about senior year or so, when I started running and playing handball. That was something I was actually good at...

Languages are easy to learn, but I prefer just speaking english and translating french if I have to.

Music owned. I made most of my friends in my band classes, and music is always going to be a part of my life, for sure.

My sciences were simple, too... Chemistry took an explanation or two, but it all came out in the end. Physics, now there was something fun and easy for me. I love kinematics. And Bio... well, it was my freshman year. I just took the course work a few years too early, is all. I got a B- in the course overall, at least.

Now that I'm in college, I think I'm going to start actually liking school again.

In school (6 years ago...wooo, so much time ):
Math: TOO easy
Physics: Interesting and easy
History: TOOOOOOOOOO boring. Hated it, because i don't read so much
Physical Education: I sucked at it. Being ashmatic didn't help
Biology: Interesting, sometimes hard, sometimes easy. just the normal guy
English: Easy, but not too interesting except when we have to chose a free topic to talk about and expose it
Psychology: Just the normal guy, it was boring, but NOT as much as history
Music: Mediocre.
Arts: Good, but i didn't like it so much. But it was better than being in music having bad marks.

Now, in collegue studying Information Technologies Engineering (how can things change so much )
Math: It can't be compared with school. In that way schools sucks. Got stuck with integrals, series, differential equations of 2nd grade, Hessian matrix, Lagrange multiplicators. Barely made it through Green, Stokes and Gauss theorems, Multiple integrals and the worst of the worst...P.D.E's (partial differential equations)

Operations Investigation: Making models for optimizing functions (Linear programming), PERT/CPM models, NLP, Binary LP, Integer LP, Stepping stones model, etc.

Physics: Fluid dynamics, viscosity, pressure. Solids, elasticity, Young module and such. Electric fields, Magnetic fields, Alternate current, phasors.

whew, and i only mentioned the subject that i failed (except the one dealing with gauss, stokes and green theorems, multiple integrals and PDE's, but i mentioned it beacuse i barely passed it). Yeah, young fellas (i sound like an old man ), collegue it's a challenge for the ones that want to enter in it. As i stated in many of my posts, enjoy your youth while you're still in school

Violin sounds so purdy , I want to learn how to play that and the sax too they're cool and a few other things..I should take some classes that'll teach me. I don't know if they'll come easy for me

Hmm, due to block teaching I have half as many classes, with twice as much homework in those classes. That way I have to worry about half the subjects at one time.

Science

This is so easy that it doesn't make sense that it's being taught. I just got through the fifth chapter and it's been only 4 weeks, a 5-chapter semester exam is coming up Wednesday for me. Every time I have had a quiz or a test, I have got 100 exept on one quiz, I got a 90, and I have done every singe extra credit project too. Today I spent literally 6 hours typing up a 238 question study guide for the test all by myself, for myself. I am just more devoted to this than anyone else, since I'm looking forward to college.

IMO, everything fits together like a puzzle in science. You learn a new concept, and it isn't that hard to link it with existing concepts and then you remember it. Although my good grades will probably decline slightly after the test, because I have organic chemistry next, and it doesn't look easy.

Geography

Hmm. This subject is SO BORING. This time, it's world geography, about other countries, yada yada yada. I have been through about 2 and a half chapters, I have done all the extra credit, I do have a high A though. Noone likes this subject, including me. This class also includes Current Events, where every friday we write/type up a report that's a few paragraphs long about something in the news, and we discuss it in class.

Apologetics

Apologetics is the study of defending your religious faith. I go to a christian school (and firmly believe in Christianity too), so that's one of the classes, after Geo. We usually talk about what sort of things we would say to people that are troubled, you know. And what we would do if others were saying "You suck because you are a Christian!" So that's kinda what that's about.

Lunch

My favorite subject time of day! My friends envy me, because on Mondays/Tuesdays/Thursdays, the school orders food from Cracker Barrel. On Wednesdays the school orders food from Pizza Hut. On Friday, the school orders food from Chik-Fila. And when I just aren't in the mood for any of that food, my mom makes her own bread that's de-lish, goes great for PB&J's.

Electives

I chose Graphic Arts for my elective. I, along with a 12th grader in that class, am the only one who knows how to effectively use the computer. I do all their transferring of pictures from the camera, viewing them, working with the files, and that sort of stuff. I get to play around on the computer when I have finished my job. I could potentially change people's grades from that computer since I use the admin account, but I'm a nice guy, and I'm not doing that.

P.E.

P.E.? What P.E.? I see no P.E. Oh, you mean the non-scheduled time frame where everyone is forced outside into over 100 degree weather? (heat index is over 100 degrees at least) I call it torture. Sometimes I am lucky and the teacher will let me stay inside. Or the Graphic Arts class might have a larger assignment than normal and I end up working there longer than usual. I always try to find a shady spot and hang out until it is over.

Go home

Here is where my Mom ALWAYS asks "How did it go today?" and then I ALWAYS say, no matter how my day went, "Great, mom." Then, if it weny bad, I say "Actually......." If it's my dad, sometimes he'll buy me a Wendy's frosty. I have mixed feelings about going home, because my mood will reflect on the rest of the day. In the middle of last week, someone was picking on me. I was in a grumpy mood. Last Friday I got 100 on a quiz in Geography and Science, turned in an extra credit project for Geography, and got 30 extra credit points added to a quiz grade in science, I couldn't contain my joy. Then I get home, take a nap, then I start on homework, study for the quiz that I am always having the next day (again, due to block teaching), so to bed, wake up and start again. Yeah, school for me is pretty interesting.

And now my fingers are sore from all that typing.

Paladin is most definitely the easiest class, you can grant invulnerability, do high damage, take a lot of hits and heal considerably, not to mention the ever-popular Seals and arguably best equipment in the game. The most difficult is perhaps Rogue, because no other class requires you to be in a specific position relative to your victim to use your more important and high-damage-output abilities. You also have to buy regeants for all skills in a specific set (poisons), with the exception of the nigh-useless Blinding Powder.

I took Film and Photography for the next two years. thats it,

My day on friday consisted of this:

Lesson one = Free period. I wrote a rap.
Lesson two = another free period. I went down to the pub and got a drink
Lesson three = Photography = I took some photos. Then took some more, while doing some mad-ass dives.
Lesson four = Film. I did filming.
Lesson five = Film. More filming.

Then I went home. Thats pretty much what im doing every day for the next 2 years.
