Ten on Tuesday

Math was my absolutely worst subject in high school. It still is. These questions should be fun!

0.01×10^2. What was your best/worst day in math class?
My worst? It would’ve been almost failing Math 12 in order to graduate or getting busted for cheating on a test in Math 11. My best day would be finding out that I got a D on the final exam for Math 12 so I could graduate with enough credits.

20×10^-1. Who was your favorite/least favorite math teacher? Why?
Mr. Colvin, lol. He was younger, so he was easier to relate with. That, and he wasn’t too bad looking either. All the girls had crushes on him, I’m sure.

3×10^0. Is it okay to be bad at math if English is more your thing?
Yes. Yes it is. I’m HORRIBLE at math and English is definitely more down my alley!

0.4×10^1. How does this video make you feel?
I am confused. Are those women for real? Seriously? You don’t believe in math? Kids should have the right to choose whether or they want to take it? SERIOUSLY? Next question …

500×10^-2. What do you like/not like about math?
I like it when it makes sense. Add in letters, and I eventually lose my mind and get confused. What really made me want to die in high school were math proofs. Blarrrrg.

0.006×10^3. What makes someone a nerd?
Being both smart and cool. Or something like that. I have no idea, lol.

7×10^0. Who is the nerdiest person you know?
It’s a toss up between a guy a graduated high school with who’s now being coming a biochemist (or something equally revolutionary) or Kyle’s BFF, who is extremely technically savvy but hip and happening at the same time.

80×10^-1. What is the nerdiest thing you’ve ever done?
I wouldn’t say I did it intentionally, but I learned that I needed glasses because I couldn’t read the dialog box on the XBox game I was playing.

0.9×10^1. Do you think GraphJam is funny?
I had never heard of it until just now, but yes. Yes I do.

10×10^1. Have you ever used math outside of school?
Complex math? No. Simple math like making change, figuring out how many birds are eyeballing me from the roof across the road and hours until the end of the day? All the time.
