HA!
Do you know why I'm still in Geometry in 12th grade when it's supposed to be taken in 10th? I failed that much. I'm like the biggest f[I]u[/I]ck tard in the world when it comes to math. I'm 17 and I still count on my fingers. Hell, I still can't recite multiplication tables beyond 1's,2's, 5's, and 10's.
There is no way I'm going to be able to prep for the Math B and pass it in two months of summer school.

Teehee. Double post.
I hate you, MX.

what's some "customer friendly" music that i can bring into work? so far i have tool, porcupine tree, the beatles, and gogol bordello. anything heavier than tool isn't really playable. and i gotta have my daily fix of gogol bordello.

any more suggestions?

RushHourSoul 02-09-2006 03:22 PM

Didn't like audacity.. ah well, no recording for me.

Tool might be a bit heavy for 'customer friendly'.

id reccommend the shadows though.

where you work?

[QUOTE=Corkofski]where you work?[/QUOTE]
sbarro's at the airport.

and tool is teetering on the edge of customer friendly, but the bosses have no problem with it. the music isn't insanely loud, but it's audible throughout the restaurant. below talking level, i guess.

Plan B. 02-09-2006 03:26 PM

Tool?!

:lol:

I'm sure "Prison Sex" would go over well.

RushHourSoul 02-09-2006 03:27 PM

So tomorrow i'm going to be recording.. Grace, Mojo Pin, Last Goodbye, Eternal Life and So Real (all by Jeff Buckley) as well as (maybe) a solo for mx, and some drums for a friends composition. Woo.

Well he could just make a CD of Tool's softer stuff. 46+2, Parabol/Parabola, Schism, Disposition, Reflection, Triad, Eulogy ect..

Win A Rabbit 02-09-2006 03:32 PM

i've only brought in lateralus so far. there's nothing too extreme on lateralus, really.

RushHourSoul 02-09-2006 03:35 PM

Holy ****. Just swapped around my tom heads to have Coated Emps on batters. God it looks amazing. I tuned them pretty high and they sound almost 'jazzy'. I've had deep, low rock sounds for ages now, time to try something different. I also thought i'd try out the 5 piece again and i'm feeling it so far.

Blank 02-09-2006 04:26 PM

Try a 4 piece buddy!

How did you manage to fail at GCSE level? English was a piece of piss anyway.

Corkofski 02-09-2006 04:40 PM

i didnt work for 2 years. easy...

Der Meister 02-09-2006 04:41 PM

Jezen 02-09-2006 04:42 PM

Do they make the mocks alot harder than the real ones?

RushHourSoul 02-09-2006 04:43 PM

[QUOTE=Blank]Try a 4 piece buddy![/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=British Boy]Do they make the mocks alot harder than the real ones?[/QUOTE]

No, usually its the year before's paper.

[QUOTE=British Boy]Do they make the mocks alot harder than the real ones?[/QUOTE]

Generally, yes.

They definetly do in Scotland, and it makes more sense as it makes you study for your final if you think its gonna be hard.

RushHourSoul 02-09-2006 04:45 PM

Ooh, conflicting statements. :)

Der Meister 02-09-2006 04:55 PM

yep

I completely messed up [I]all[/I] of my mocks, but in the actual GCSE exams I didn't get below a C in anything, despite doing absolutely no revision for either. Haven't a clue why.

To be honest, GCSEs you can survive without working, as long as you're fairly intelligent. A levels are where you need to work, or else fail.

tru dat, A level were a real kick in the arse for me. I got an U in my first History and Biology practice tests and I was just like oh shi...

Now I'm at a estimate for A for history and a B for Biology :cool: dunno what my ICT one is yet

styler 02-09-2006 05:12 PM

Der Meister 02-09-2006 05:16 PM

Yeah, in the mocks I did awful, like all Ds, Es etc. In the actual GCSEs I didn't do too bad, got two Ds but the rest where Bs, As, Cs.

A level is much harder, but a lot more interesting I think.
