retrospec | (no subject)

I know we've all been a bit distracted lately, not only from the abrupt loss of two colors from the spectrum, but all the usual school madness that occurs in June. Grades are coming in, summer sessions are about to begin, and that's an understandably stressful time.

[To say nothing of sleep loss. Rosalind certainly looks exhausted as she glowers into the camera. Behind her, chalkboards are filled with equations, and someone with a particularly clever mind might be able to spot a trend towards space and time.]

However. Let me give a few of you a piece of advice. I know several of you are in university right now, or about to graduate high school and enter into it. If you ever send a professor who failed you something like what I'm about to attach, you will not change their minds. Point in fact, they'll be even more determined to fail you. I know I certainly am, and I'm not even the one dealing with this right now.

Honestly, I preferred the bribes to this.

Oh. That's pretty sad. They definitely should have tried harder than because I bet what you and the others teach is super cool!

I've been to a few classes here and there in the university. So far from what I've seen has been aces!

How old are you, precisely?

[ immmm- ]

I guess I'm old enough if Retrospec thinks it's a good idea to put this app on my phone.

Ms. Teacher Ma'am.

Eleven, then?

I'm actually ten! You really thought I was older?

[ that's, like, a compliment to him. ]

[Oh, good god.]

I did. What on earth do you have a cell phone for?

Lots of things! Keep in contact with my mom and brother. Keep in contact with friends. Take pictures. Write notes. Film funny videos.

I didn't think I would use a social media thing so much but here I am! I try to make sure I didn't use it in class at least. That would have been pretty rude to my teachers and they're really cool so yeah.

Yes, don't do that. You'll end up with chalk thrown in your direction.

[Probably. Maybe. She has no idea what a public elementary school is like. Although--]

I don't suppose you've skipped any grades, have you?

[ his old teacher mr. shurber would have done that 10000%. no mercy run. ]

No. And I don't wanna if the chance came up, to be honest. Why skip the chance to learn just cause you think you're smart enough to not learn the stuff anymore? Who knows? Maybe the teacher has a neat trick to learn it or you learn something else long the way.

Like I get it means people who do it are like super smart so great for them! That's neato but I guess it's not my glass of soda is all. [ he knows the proper idiom is 'cup of tea' but he doesn't like tea so nyeh. ]

[Glass of soda . . . oh, no.]

You're speaking to a woman who attended high school at age thirteen, I'm afraid.
