Now I remember a friend taking a statistics course in high school. Hmm. This is all for a pretty throwaway line in something I'm writing, so I'm not sure how much it matters, but thanks, all.
My math courses were algebra I, algebra II remedial, and I think that was it. I managed to get away with some completely bullshit math survey course freshman year of college -- we read
Flatland
and the annotated
Alice in Wonderland,
and didn't actually ever *do* a math problem, if I remember right. My math phobia was pretty hardcore.
I'm with Steph on thinking about good things. The sun! IT IS SHINING.
Don't bogart the sun, man.
I want a wearable bed!
Isn't that what Jennifer Lawrence wore to the GGs?
Happy birthday, msbelle! I will think pink all day in honor of the occasion.
So, Emmett has been accepted into three colleges already. So he's going somewhere next year.
That is AWESOME! except for the part where I am in complete denial of EMMETT BEING OLD ENOUGH TO GO TO COLLEGE! WTF DARTH TIGGER!!???
That's great! Is there one in particular that he really wants to go to?
My math phobia was pretty hardcore.
I'm pretty sure my mother took Greek instead of math in college.
I feel like there was some probability in there, but my college-track HS math classes back in Olden Tymes were geometry, algebra II, pre-calc, and calc.
I went to a different lunch place and chose wrong. But the place has potential!
Congrats, Emmett! Where does he want to go?
Don't bogart the sun, man.
Is this where I make a joke about needing the D?
I had Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, then an invitation-only advanced math thing that I don't remember why I was invited to and I didn't realize that my invitation meant I was good at certain parts of math. Hooray, midcentury stereotypical "girls can't do math" mindset.
