To Mordor I assign Prom season and all the stress thereof: hair appointments, expensive tickets, drama with friends and their boyfriends, my own lack of a boyfriend (which could be conisdered a blessing, actually in the light of some of the drama I've been subjected to), and in general the whole overblown shebang. If it wasn't so much FUN last year when I went, I certainly wouldn't bother.
And while I'm at it I might as well assign the entire age group of guys from junior and senior years for being so darn hard to understand and harder still to ask for a date.
Sheesh.
Ok, rant over.
Oh, and while we're on the subject of pronounciations made by chem teachers, let's add this to the book. I know it's just a regional thing but it drives me CRAZY when my Chem teacher pronounces nuclear as "Nukulur", nucleus as "nukulus", etc. It's just one of those things that is so irritating in a small, niggling way that it makes me want to tear my hair out. Ok, maybe not quite that severe as that, but it definitely makes me lose my will to take notes.
