Maths For Real Life, Period 1, Class 8 [3/3]

[notanactualfairy]

Jean-Paul looked happy today. His happy look was especially distressing when one considered the large stack of papers at each student's desk. "Today is your midterm," he said cheerfully. "You may hand in your completed tax forms and begin. You may collect your graded tax forms at the end of class; use my corrections to file with the IRS before April fifteenth if you are indeed subject to the United States tax code." Then he sat back in his seat behind his nice desk to watch the fun. It would only take him about ten seconds to grade their tax forms, after all.

((There was going to be an actual midterm until I got a whole bunch of stuff due in the next three days dumped on me all at once, so, uh, just assume the midterm is A) practical and B) kind of evil and handwave a grade.))

Taxes!

[notanactualfairy]

Hand in your tax forms. Handwave how you did on them.

Midterm!

[notanactualfairy]

Take your midterm. Handwave how you did on that, too.

Teacher!

[notanactualfairy]

Talk to Professor Beaubier. Whine about taxes or the midterm. If you do, he will laugh and laugh.

OOC

School hates me and wants me to die.

Liir had double and triple checked his paperwork since he wanted to do well (and it's not as if his boyfriend was going to distract him other than requiring more cilantro).

Math!

...Liir dug in happily, every so often scritching the bunny sitting on his desk.

Jeff was frighteningly diligent and dedicated-- about pretty much everything in this class. Which is also how he had set to work and finished his taxes.

They were very important.

All things considered, he probably did well. Even if the forms smelled subtly of fish.

Re: Midterm!

[scary-jeff.livejournal.com]

Jeff enjoyed math a whole lot.

Jeff even enjoyed math midterms. And doing them well.

Weirdo, Jeff. Weirdo.

Michael had... tried. There were probably quite a few self-corrections and mistakes, though.

Re: Midterm!

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

Michael did not enjoy math.

He scowled at the paper, but set to doing his best.

Makoto had spent most of yesterday evening going over them, double-checking all his work. He probably did pretty well on them.

Re: Midterm!

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

It was, really, too early in the morning for him to feel anything but a bit of resignation over having to do this much work.

That being said, he was pretty good at math. Even half-asleep and wishing he was still in Mexico.

Robin

Re: Taxes!

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Robin did fairly well. A few errors, but nothing to warrent an audit.

Re: Midterm!

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Robin did well on the midterm. About 85 percent.

Re: Taxes!

Taxes bored Adah intensely, but she'd done them quickly, done them once, done them well, and had to dig them out from a bunch of other things she found more interesting when she got to class today. They were dog-earred and a bit wrinkled by now, but the work was all entirely correct.

Re: Midterm!

[ecirpnellehada.livejournal.com]

Considering how it was mathematic, Adah probably couldn't have done poorly even if she tried.

Knowing this and not liking to fail anyway, Adah let her math-minded brain do its thing, finished early, but with a perfection that especially annoyed her.

Re: Taxes!

Harry turned in his forms. He was still sort of half hoping that he might live a tax-free life from here on out.

He didn't think he'd screwed up anything on the forms, so they were probably at least mostly correct.

Re: Midterm!

[harrydresden.livejournal.com]

Harry was again going to do an okay job. Not great, but nothing he was going to need to hang his head in shame about either.

He would probably have done better if he hadn't been so distracted by his sneakers. They kept sighing and he kept stomping, hoping that would help. It only made them sigh louder.

Re: Taxes!

Cedric's forms were very neat, precise and double checked. There might have been a few minor errors but they were, overall, very well done.

Re: Midterm!

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

Cedric took the midterm and was surprised at how easily things were coming. He still probably made a few mistakes considering numbers were confusing but passed easily.
