31/8/21 Lymond 18

To add onto Meg’s school DUAN post from last night – what were your favorite subjects or accomplishments on your educational journey? Although, English was my favorite subject, I won a chemistry award in the ninth grade.

MJ was so adorable.

What did y’all like to learn? As always, thanks for your support of DU!AN and DS.

  1. I liked English(Beat) but when it came to homework I’d rather Save It For Later.

     

    • One of my favorite videos of all time. I still dance like that, including the “drying the hands” move (the blonde woman at 1:35.) 

      “‘Bliss it was in that dawn to be alive

      But to be young was very heaven.”

      –William Wordsworth (who, by the way, was born in a town (city?) that never fails to evince a chuckle from me: Cockermouth.)

  3. My best subjects were English

  5. I suck at Math, still. Don’t ask what I do for a living.

  8. Aesop Rock, “Molecules” 


    QOTSA, “Better Living Through Chemistry” 

    Primus, “Poetry and Prose” 

    • This was far from my favourite course, but it must be included. 
      Lil Timmy Tim, “Statistics” (Timothée Chalamet) 

      • Ah, yes, statistics, worst grade I got in college, and I took it as an elective.

        The study of probability, or chance. Which seems more probable about this opening: they were influenced by the opening of The Brady Bunch or Hollywood Squares?

  9. For my English major, I had to have a “minor” in a humanity. Something like 12-15 hours. I chose philosophy.
     
    The Crystal Method with Richard Patrick – Trip Like I Do
