1. Are you going to school this year?
Nope.
2. If yes, where are you going (high school, college, etc.)? If no, when did you graduate?
A very long time ago...1999 University of Calgary, after an impressive seven year stint.
3. What are/were your favorite school subjects?
Geology, Geophysics, Math when it was easy, Ancient History (any time, any place).
4. What are/were your least favorite school subjects?
Human Geography, 45 minutes never lasted so long. And surprisingly, English. But only because I don't buy into a class where every thing's subjective.
I have a story...I wrote a thing in high school english where the girl gets pissed at this guy, and somehow (I can't remember how exactly) she's looking at a picture of them through broken glass in a picture frame. So, my english teacher circles the sentence and in great big bold letters writes "Great Symbolism!" And I'm staring at it thinking; Dude, she was mad and smashed the picture.
From that point on I've thought all English teachers try and see things that aren't there. [/end rant]
5. Have you ever had a favorite teacher? Why was he/she a favorite?
The guy in the story above :) He had a way of finding what you were good at and used it to encourage you. And I could do no wrong with him, which always helps.
