Michael is so sweet! As usual, he came in to visit me before class but this time it was even more special. Michael, like I've said before, is not huge into PDA, but he came in and gave me this really sweet kiss and my favorite meal, cold sesame noodles from Number One Noodle Son. I was a little confused and I said "why the kiss and the noodles?" But then Mr. G told Michael to leave because class is starting. COME ON, at least let us talk! Oh well maybe it would be more fun if I just kept it a mystery. Hopefully World War three won't break out at lunch between Lilly, Boris and Tina. Oh no.... Just after I thought we were finished with the FOIL (first, inside, outside and last) method. Mr.Gianni is telling us we need to review it for some "Presidential exam" that every ninth grader has to take. Joy. As if final exams aren't enough now one more.
E.g. #1
Factor down 2x(3y²+8xy)+y (2³xy-5x)
Well lets see... 10x(4y²+9xy)? There is NO way I'll ever use this in real life.
E.g. # 2
When there is a trinomial, what are the steps to change it BACK to two binomials?
DO I CARE? ... NO. I bet Paris Hilton never had to do algebra. Good, the bell just rang.
