Things to Talk About While Sitting in Class
 

You know, when you're at college in class and supposed to be paying attention?

Yea well I can't read any of the shit my professor sticks on the board so I've decided Im'a fail, and talk to you as I do so.

You ever slack off in class?

... I was drawing while in class... I never paid attention in physics... and still passed with a B

Well I hate learning how to read music. It's the most boring thing ever. And it's been what's on the board since this semester started.
So boring.
So.. boring.

Music? understand I am in Jazz appreciation... I dont get it at all when he gets to the technical stuff

I'm just not a fan of learning music, listening to it, yea.. reading it.. nah..

I like listening to it but jazz... it puts me to sleep... and then he gets all technical and I try not to pass out.

But on to happier things...

Still learning to read music, there are no happy things. ಠ__ಠ

What type of class is this?

Cause I learned to read basic music in band.

Introduction to Art. I joined for the art. Not the reading of music.

Music is a form of Art... but making you read music... Icky.
Some people can't read music well it all gets jumbled to them.

I've never taken any sort of music class aside from band in junior high. I suck at sightreading music so I quit. :B I was pretty good at understanding the technical concepts when I took piano lessons as a kid, but reading the music just screwed me over.

I play Pokemon when I'm bored in class. Sometimes actually going through the game, but usually Battle Tower stuff. Grinding through a bunch of battles doesn't distract me completely from the lecture, so I find I absorb enough information to get by. Much more than I would taking a nap, at any rate.

I was just playing some minecraft. xD

I had a class a couple of years ago about using electronic resources for library research. The class was in a lab, it was really easy, so I just messed around on Gaia most of the time >.>

I'm currently grinding my way through a Master's degree in Library Science, but I sort of suspect it's mostly just going to leave me with a lot of student loan debt...

I've had classes like that. Freshman year I had a two-hour block world history class at three in the afternoon on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. When it became inevitable that I would always sleep or draw through the whole class, I stopped going. I passed the class in the end, but just barely. If you're motivated enough to keep up with the material outside of class, you can afford to goof off a bit during lectures. I'm not really like that, at least ninety percent of the time. :/

I used to play violin and percussion in high school orchestra and band, respectively. I also played in college pep band and concert band during my first year. And I never learned how to sightread. I am an incredibly slow reader. I ended up memorizing all my music. It was pretty manageable for, like, bass drum, but I never really got a chance to develop as a violinist, even though I played for six years, because every time I practiced, I just focused on memorizing my music and didn't get a chance to work on my technique. It also doesn't help that I skipped sixth grade and missed the training year for middle school orchestra. :/

As an undergrad I wrote a LOT of dirty fanfiction in class... well, and other stuff. But mostly dirty fanfiction.

I always draw in class. Occasionally I fall asleep...that used to be every single Calc class in my junior year.
