I could use a little cheering up
Sep. 22nd, 2014 11:11 pmSo hit me with story/art recs, funny links, etc. I'm beginning to think teaching is the stupidest thing I could ever have done. I know we all feel pointless in our jobs from time to time but today was bad. It was the nurses first test in anatomy and physiology and it was the basic cell stuff, diffusion/active transport, organelles, what's a carb/lipid/protein, stuff I learned in SIXTH grade. 69% class average (and that's with 2 people getting 100% if that gives you an idea of how bad these people did). AND I gave the same test to my majors, only harder but still review considering they have to have a full year of biology and most have had a full year of chemistry under their belts. In a class of 9 I had 3 100% and 3 failures (and the rest were all over the a-c range). WTF? I'm gonna be a doctor. No, you surely fucking are not. You're going to be nothing if you can't retain shit a fifth grader should know.
bah. enough of that.
My parents ended up in some strange hotels on their trip. The one in Fort Ticongaroga was very 1970s but check out the fireplace IN their room.

And it's Alban Elfed/Mabon. So have a lovely autumnal equinox. It's beautiful here.

And he FINALLY got up the steampunk pictures. Mine came out (even if I AM sweaty-faced).

And here are all the photos. meet the Airship Athena
There three states that never disappoint me when it comes to the absolutely crazy people that live there, AZ, FL and OH (Texas is a close fourth and IN did have the guy who ate his girlfriend last week). I bring you Total Recall anyone? And this doctor should lose his license. It IS unethical.
Oh and Happy Birthday to

Date: 2014-09-23 11:38 am (UTC)...I want the fireplace. I could roast a body, I mean, a deer in there.
I have no idea what to say to your students. That's pretty sad.
Happy Mabon!

I thought that was bad until my coworker showed me her scores for her nursing class. the average was 41%, Kanda could do better.
and same to you

Date: 2014-09-23 06:41 pm (UTC)I'm sorry your students have forgotten everything they learned in 5th & 6th grade. XD As scary & sad as that is, it could be worse... they could get the same results from an open book test. ^^;
What would you like me to draw for you? :D

Date: 2014-09-23 11:03 pm (UTC)You're welcome. Yeah. If there's something else you'd like better, that's okay, as long as I can find a ref pic or two I can draw it. It doesn't have to be from a fandom I like/know. :D

Date: 2014-09-24 03:25 am (UTC)Okay, I'll have fun with Soma. :D
Oh! I've only seen other people color it in & that's at DA. I don't get why people do it & then act like they this awesome artist cuz they did something most lil kids can do. XD And people praise them too like they're an artistic genius. o.0 I generally report them, cuz I doubt the manga-ka is doing a collab with them. Especially since the same panel often appears numerous time with different peeps adding color. >.>
