I love music

i want to listen to every song out there. I may not like it, but i'll hear it once so i'll know when to run out of the room when i hear it.

im asking my friend "have you heard any local music at a bar or the street that sounded really good? " Im not expecting an answer =p

Teaching

I gotta say for anyone who professionally teaches, i applaud you. helping someone understand the combined gas law for example. where in a substance the amount of molecules are stable but the temperature of a substance , the volume of substance and the pressure its under are all changeable variables. volume and pressure are multiplied and divided by the temperature.

Now to teach this you don't have to assume your students know what your talking about. but your banking on the fact that all your students are listening, taking notes and present.hence understanding the curriculum

for the most part i've been there in class more then most of my school. I listen usually but notes arent my strong point unfortunately, but i can say for sure i understand and retain most of the general concepts lessons laws ect. that were taught to me.

The law of conservation states that energy is neither created nor destroyed but transferred.

Mercury & Bromine are the only elements to hold a liquid form when in room temperature. hydgrogen is composed of 1 neutron 1 proton and 1 electron and has the atomic mass of 1 si.nitrogen is the most common element in the atmosphere.

The president of the united states runs the executive, has the power to approve or veto a bill. Federal courts such as the supreme court is the judicial branch in which they interpret constitution in law, deeming what is and is not legal. congress and the senate together are the legislature. This is called checks and balances used by the United States.


Everyone should know this, Should you not?

Critical Thinking

I told a friend once I'd imagine they'd a start making a clinically stupid class just to balance out the people who fail Critical Thinking. My guidance counselor changed my piano to this mysterious class.

I did not take that well one bit. I will probably pursue music in general for the rest of my life

I soon discover after 5 minutes sitting in that this college class called critical thinking comes with a middle aged abrasive teacher, thus rendering it an intense style to run a class. I cant help but like this guy, can't say why. This self proclaimed loud mexican called me out when I gasped at his opening monologue about his grading policy. particularly when he talked about collecting our notes.


WHAT?


since when do teachers do that?


Is the gap between high school and college really that big?


Still I like this class. The name itself I find appealing.
but the homework. Oh the homework, I have to write down reasons why I would apply for a scholarship to a certain college why should i apply for a full scolarship to a college? So I wont have to pay for college and get the education for free. but what else I want to be educated but I dont know what I want as a job exactly. College is a plethora of anxiety for me

I'm thinking about teaching music because i love teaching anything I know to someone else. Watching my students face when they play a beloved song makes it all worth while.

or being a professional musician being that I've been playing guitar for 2-3 years almost everyday.

or a character actor trust me I'm a natural.

be or a cook. or writing scripts or I just don't know.
i'll be saying that too for the rest of my life . I Don't Know. But how often?
I hope i can stay interested long enough to pass the class.
