Getting to Know You

[Fairywings]

My absolute favorite was my 6th grade teacher. She basically helped me to stop underachieving/work to my full potential, as my self confidence wasn't high. Her class was a lot of fun.

Since then I'd definitely say my GT English teacher. [We're like a family in her class (only 10 kids), so we're open without fear that we'll be embarrassed or that it'll get out somehow] She's very insightful and extremely wise, and thus helps us with any problems we might be having, whether it be understanding why a friend could be acting the way they are or just giving us insights on people in general. The kids are also like me, such as basically having over sensitive senses, so that's another plus.

That's kinda like mine. We have 14 including myself. But I only really felt like it was a family my first year. The past two years just hasn't seemed to have that same connection (there wasn't anyone I didn't like - minus that one guy but most of the time I can forget he's there). I bonded with a few people last year, and I had someone who was already a friend of mine last year, but there were people who annoyed me and it just wasn't the same. It's not the same this year either, again I don't like everyone and I often have the minority opinion so it can leave me emotionally drained at times.

I think our schools do the program the same way for the exception of mine splitting up grades, so it's the same people every year unless someone tests in. And I'm sorry, but I get it. Half the time during discussions I'm the minority, as well.

My English teacher last year was really awesome. She was really zany, fun and kinda took me under her wing.

My US history teacher last year. He is so awesome lol well, we never really did much in there. Ever. We did a bunch of projects, which I love because I am a hands on, creative person. My teacher is a football coach, so that explains why we never did much lol but honestly, I did learn quite a bit from that class. He is the one teacher who thinks I hung the stars in the sky. He tells me all the time i will win an academy award one day because I always used to make up these movies and skits to present ideas with, which he absolutely adored. I bring him a cookie about once a month that my dad makes. They are his favorite. I don't even do that for my best friends lol

My all time favorite teacher was my eighth grade English teacher. She was really nice and distracted us with stories all the time so then class went by faster!!

Do you consider yourself emotional?
Yes. If I had asked this question a few years back I probably would have said not really, but yes, I am pretty emotional, college does that. I wear my heart on my sleeve and it gets me.

 

[Doodle98]

Oh yes. I'm very emotional. I can cry very easily, I get annoyed and angry easily, and I'm hyper a lot. I'm just mental sometimes (a lot of the time) too. I do a lot of art, which helps me seem more "normal". Also, I have a form of OCD where I get really stressed and nervous, so I think that may be part of it too.

Okay so I have 4 I've only really disliked 2 of my teachers EVER but these are my favorite...

My kindergarten teacher i absolutely loved her she was so nice

My 1st and 2nd grade teacher(same person she looped our class) she was so fun and we felt like a big family she always made sure we were taken care of even after we left her class and she moved on to a different school

My 6th grade world cultures teacher was the best we always did fun hands on activities she also made us feel like a family we always had fun and even made the boring stuff fun

My 6th grade rela(reading/language arts) teacher was amazing she always told us stories about her personal life and she was always happy and in a good mood to be honest i didn't like her as much then as I do now here's one of the stories she told us...

so she was talking about how our backpacks would wipe against the the white board and that honestly we weren't that big and even her with her "big hippo hips" (she said that about her self and she wasn't even over weight or anything) she didn't wipe against the board and since she was talking about her "hippo hips" she decide to tell us about how her husband had bought her a juicer even though she had wanted a camera for Christmas but it was probably better that way because of her "hippo hips" she needed to loose weight anyways

I don't think I'm very emotional I mean I'll cry in a movie or about a book but no really about like every day stuff personally I could care less if some one doesn't like me

 

[Cinderella8]

Ehhhh....kinda

But I'm also an Elsa and will cover it up when I do feel emotional

 

[Orreed]

I am not very emotional at all. My sister is the most emotional person I know and sometimes that causes conflict.

 

[MickeyisBeast]

Yes. I cry so easily. I cry over sweet things and sad things and basically all things. I just cry a lot I can't help it I get emotional over things.

Yet at the same time I have one of those "I don't care about anything" attitudes.

 

[disneyanney]

It depends. I don't cry a lot-most pain I feel is sort of only internally, I guess-but my day can be ruined by the littlest things. So I'm sensitive but I know how to keep myself calm. This being said, I'm not emotionless.

 

[LondonUnderground]

Yes. I cry so easily. I cry over sweet things and sad things and basically all things. I just cry a lot I can't help it I get emotional over things. Yet at the same time I have one of those "I don't care about anything" attitudes.

Literally same

Actually strach that. Dating a Marine recruit makes me super emotional. It's tough. He left for boot camp on 3/2 and I haven't gotten a letter yet. And saying goodbye (Only communication is mail, and he doesn't get out til 5/30) was so emotional and hard. Try to never date military, it stinks. I didn't choose it, kinda just fell hard for him lol. He's worth it but dang it's not easy.

 

[Fairywings]

No, I,m not very emotional. I don't cry unless i'm in severe physicsl pain or depressed. I feel sadness but I can be detached about it. Anger ix the one way I can be emotional visibly, because I can't control my temper

 

[grandfloluver]

Yes and no. I hide my emotions a lot, or at least my crying from everyone because I don't wanna burden anyone. I keep a lot of things to myself. But at the same time, I am a big venter. I love talking about my problems. It makes me feel better. Normally, I try and joke about things To divert them from 100% negativity. It's such a cover up lol I don't like crying, so I rarely do it. Some situations kill me and toy story 3 kills me.

 

[GoofyFunyun]

Not really.

 

[softball chick]

Do you consider yourself emotional?
Yes. If I had asked this question a few years back I probably would have said not really, but yes, I am pretty emotional, college does that. I wear my heart on my sleeve and it gets me.

I've noticed the same thing - the older I have gotten, the more emotional I am. I never used to but now the simplest things can make me cry.

 

[1elle2]

Um... It depends on if I'm in math or not XD Last year I kept having hormone swings, but this year it hasn't happened nearly as much. Getting stressed out in math was the main reason for me to flip out, but this year I'm way calmer.

 

[expeditioneverestgrl]

Yes. Mostly I cry about my Spanish teacher (because she is a b****) and homework in math if I am stuck on a problem forever or if I get a bad grade.
