haha i never want to do math again
What's in your hand, back at me. I have it, it's an oyster with two figures of your favorite Touhou characters. Look again, the figures are now vials of the Hourai Elixir. Anything is possible when your waifu smells like Old World and not a man. I'm a frog.

Math is difficult but worth it.

Language of physical reality and all that, y'all.

NejinOniwa

Not the only language. No, it's not worth it. D2R BITCHEZ
YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS

NejinOniwa

Really fucking secret is what it is

Also, hard to explain without a 3D (at least) drawing board, so not much point in trying. But it does delegate maths to a rather secondary position in the hierarchy, without removing functionality.

@nej: hahaha, noice job fucking with your players' heads. in our case, yesterday, we just punched trees a whole bunch and said a lot of sentences we never thought we'd hear ("eugene the toilet wizard" and (in reference to having killed a treeant) "THAT'LL MAKE A FINE CANOE." come to mind). we were quite lucky to have survived, honestly....especially the bard.

@cockle: natural sugar is good for you. dieting isn't a bad thing (especially since you're a new freshman, perhaps going to eat nothing but junk), but make sure to at least eat, if not eat right. drink some goddamn OJ.

@spence: welcome back, friend. shit happens, so no need to apologize for the absence. good to have ya back. -w-

@SK: if it's not something you're used to, it's not something you're used to. hope it works itself out, though, i can't imagine it should be that hard to figure out. :\

@bells: math is whack. i did well enough in high school and on the SATs to avoid taking it in college, but if i'm (somehow) required to take it when i transfer i'm going to aim for statistics since i have a manga statistics textbook to help me through the basics. >>;;


applied to 10 Joann's positions last week. going to follow the advice of Lacy (former manager, current employee of the Methuen Joann's) and call the stores to follow up with the hiring managers this friday. i'm a bit nervous, but hopefully i can work up the nerve again. ;^;

also, my wig should be shipping in today. ^^

@Kari: Nice on the wig :3
Good luck with the jobs
(Also, I'm a bit rusty on advanced math, so TBH that's one thing I dread about my plans to go to college >_<; )

Not much going on here. Mostly frustrated that for whatever reason, mom's off work today; throwing off my plans >_>;

I almost didn't go to school today because my dad stayed up all night last night. :/

He woke me up, but he fell asleep half  an hour before I had to wait for the bus.

does he drive you to the bus stop? cause otherwise i wouldn't see much reason for YOU to skip when HE'S asleep......

also, are you posting from school? cause it's definitely too early there for you to be out. : p

@pent: thanks, i'ma go get a foam head and some wig caps today, and a wig brush if i can afford it. (if not, i have a wide-tooth comb i'ma use.)

in the event you get into college, i can recommend the manga statistics book to you if you end up there. i could also try to research to see if there are any other comic math books; math is a tedious enough sport without having to review from bland-ass paragraphs of hard-to-retain shit. >>;

EDIT: i'll just leave this here....

my iPhone has such shit storage capacity

Nichi

@Leaf: How much storage does it have? I used to have an iPod Touch that only had 8GB :\

@Kari: Indeed. I suppose part of how I was able to squeeze by with a passing score was likely due to the Algebra for Dummies book I have -w-;

Although, a comic to help go over the basics would be cool; sort of like if Cyberchase was a comic
...and my thoughts drift to the Tandy Computer Whiz Kids for no reason >w>;

Chocofreak13

WHIZZZZ KIIIIIIDS

and now i'm curious as to what subjects you can learn via manga. research will ensue.

@leaf: how big? mine's 32.
