50 Fun Things For Professors To Do

2006-12-14T00:04:00.000-08:00

hahahaha, this post is all thanks to darkshine! we were sitting in class and she saw it online:) while we were readint this, both of us had tears in our eyes from laughing and our stomaches started hurting. REALLLLYY funny. enjooooyyyyy

This is a list of fun things professors can do to for fun on the first day of class.

1. Wear a hood with one eyehole. Periodically make strange gurgling noises.
2. After confirming everyone's names on the roll, thank the class for attending "Advanced Astrodynamics 690" and mention that yesterday was the last day to drop.
3. After turning on the overhead projector, clutch your chest and scream "MY PACEMAKER!"
4. Wear a pointed Kaiser helmet and a monocle and carry a riding crop.
5. Gradually speak softer and softer and then suddenly point to a student and scream "YOU! WHAT DID I JUST SAY?"
6. Deliver your lecture through a hand puppet. If a student asks you a question directly, say in a high-pitched voice, "The Professor can't hear you, you'll have to ask *me*, Winky Willy."
7. If someone asks a question, walk silently over to their seat, hand them your piece of chalk, and ask, "Would YOU like to give the lecture, Mr. Smartypants?"
8. Pick out random students, ask them questions, and time their responses with a stop watch. Record their times in your grade book while muttering "tsk, tsk."
9. Ask students to call you "Tinkerbell" or "Surfin' Bird."
10. Stop in mid-lecture, frown for a moment, and then ask the class whether your butt looks fat.
11. Play "Kumbaya" on the banjo.
12. Show a video on medieval torture implements to your calculus class. Giggle throughout it.
13. Announce "you'll need this," and write the suicide prevention hotline number on the board.
14. Wear mirrored sunglasses and speak only in Turkish. Ignore all questions.
15. Start the lecture by dancing and lip-syncing to James Brown's "Sex Machine."
16. Ask occasional questions, but mutter "as if you gibbering Simps would know," and move on before anyone can answer.
17. Ask the class to read Jenkins through Johnson of the local phone book by the next lecture. Vaguely imply that there will be a quiz.
18. Have one of your graduate students sprinkle flower petals ahead of you as you pace back and forth.
19. Address students as "worm."
20. Announce to students that their entire grades will be based on a single-question oral final exam. Imply that this could happen at any moment.
21. Turn off the lights, play a tape of crickets chirping, and begin singing spirituals.
22. Ask for a volunteer for a demonstration. Ask them to fill out a waiver as you put on a lead apron and light a blowtorch.
23. Point the overhead projector at the class. Demand each student's name, rank, and serial number.
24. Begin class by smashing the neck off a bottle of vodka, and announce that the lecture's over when the bottle's done.
25. Have a band waiting in the corner of the room. When anyone asks a question, have the band start playing and sing an Elvis song.
26. Every so often, freeze in mid sentence and stare off into space for several minutes. After a long, awkward silence, resume your sentence and proceed normally.
27. Wear a "virtual reality" helmet and strange gloves. When someone asks a question, turn in their direction and make throttling motions with your hands.
28. Mention in passing that you're wearing rubber underwear.
29. Growl constantly and address students as "matey."
30. Devote your math lecture to free verse about your favorite numbers and ask students to "sit back and groove."
31. Announce that last year's students have almost finished their class projects.
32. Inform your English class that they need to know Fortran and code all their essays. Deliver a lecture on output format statements.
33. Bring a small dog to class. Tell the class he's named "Boogers McGee" and is your "mascot." Whenever someone asks a question, walk over to the dog and ask it, "What'll be, McGee?"
34. Wear a feather boa and ask students to call you "Snuggles."
35. Tell your math students that they must do all their work in a base 11 number system. Use a complicated symbol you've named after yourself in place of the number 10 and threaten to fail students who don't use it.
36. Claim to be a chicken. Squat, cluck, and produce eggs at irregular intervals.
37. Bring a CPR dummy to class and announce that it will be the teaching assistant for the semester. Assign it an office and office hours.
38. Have a grad student in a black beret pluck at a bass while you lecture.
39. Sprint from the room in a panic if you hear sirens outside.
40. Give an opening monologue. Take two minute "commercial breaks" every ten minutes.
41. Tell students that you'll fail them if they cheat on exams or "fake the funk."
42. Announce that you need to deliver two lectures that day, and deliver them in rapid-fire auctioneer style.
43. Pass out dental floss to students and devote the lecture to oral hygiene.
44. Announce that the entire 32-volume Encyclopedia Britannica will be required reading for your class. Assign a report on Volume 1, Aardvark through Armenia, for next class.
45. Ask students to list their favorite showtunes on a signup sheet. Criticize their choices and make notes in your grade book.
46. Sneeze on students in the front row and wipe your nose on your tie.
47. Warn students that they should bring a sack lunch to exams.
48. Refer frequently to students who died while taking your class.
49. Show up to lecture in a ventilated clean suit. Advise students to keep their distance for their own safety and mutter something about "that bug I picked up in the field."
50. Jog into class, rip the textbook in half, and scream, "Are you pumped? ARE YOU PUMPED? I CAN'T HEEEEEEAR YOU!"

zeeshan..

2006-12-05T12:08:00.000-08:00

i have been thinking about writing about zeeshan for quite some time now but i just havent been able to gather up enough courage to put it down in words. actually, im not even sure if i would be able to...ever!

well, its almost gonna be a year on december 20th. he died in a car accident and they say it was not his fault. i had known him ALLL my life!!! god, soo many memories with him.

6th grade: got to know him for the first time in 6th grade thru a friend (haris). apparently he wanted to ask me out and back then i HATED guys. well, i mean most 6th grade girls hate guys anyways:P it obviously came to me as a shock since he was the first guy ever who wanted to be my 'boyfriend'! i remember walking with him to the bus and being all pathetically shy and not being able to tell him that i was 'so-not-interested'. that was it. didnt talk to him for the rest of the school year
7th grade: we took urdu together but we always managed to sit at opposite ends of the class and tried our best never to make eye contact. but one day out urdu teacher made us sit together and he couldnt resist cheating off me on the test:P hehehe, that sort of got us started talking again but we still had that awkward thing between us.
8th grade: we got reallllyyy close since he was dating my best friend and i was dating his. i remember those times the 4 of us would hang out together and skip classes and all. FUN! everytime id be upset id always go to him and he would figure stuff out for me. he was SUCHH a jaaaan (sweetheart, i guess?)

after 8th grade, he left saudi and went to pakistan and i left for states. we would talk once in a while and it would be just SOOO much fun. he would flirt around, crack stupid jokes, tell me im the most pathetic girl hes ever met and yet make me feel SOO special, talk about old days, bitch about our ex-es:P, and a whole lot more. then, one summer when i went to pakistan we got REALLLLYY close. id talk to him every single day for hours! and every day he would say "sarah, just admit it! no ones gonna marry you and i know ill end up marrying you" and id tell him, "id rather die than marry you" hehe. he was SUCH a flirt but thats exactly what i loved about him! everything was soo much fun with him! anyways, i came back to saudi in august and he was getting ready to go to canada in january. we would talk every once in a while, and hed be the same stupid person he was:)

the last time i talked to him was a couple days before he died(sunday, 18th december 2005). he was telling me how hes gonna be in dubai for new years and i should go there so we could party together. told him that wasnt possible since i doubt id get permission to go to dubai for new years:P hehe, so he made me promise that if he could come to bahrain, id take a day out for him and i agreed.

the friday after that, 23rd december 2005, i was online and this friend told me how she heard on orkut that zeeshan has passed away in a car accident. i was SOOOOO MAD at her. told her NOT TO GO THE F*** AROUND TELLING ME MY FRIENDS DEAD! i was sooo upset, went offline and was gonna call him to make sure he was okay. i told myself that its stupid, i KNOW hes fine and i dont need to call to make sure. so, i just left it there and went to eat. i couldnt stop thinking about what that girl told me and WHY would she tell me something like that. but then, i knew he was FINE! he wasnt about to leave us!!! but it kept bothering me, i HAD to call him and talk to him once before i jumped to conclusions.

all i had to hear was his brother answer his phone for him, and i was a wreck! i burst out crying, couldnt even talk to his brother (which i probably should have since he was in the worst place) i dont even remember how long i cried for! at that time i knew i could only talk to one perosn who would understand EXACTLY how i feel and that was abeer! (thanks hun *HUG*) called her up and we both just cried on the phone for 15 mins. for some reason it made both of us feel better. but it wasnt over. i couldnt stop thinking about it! the stupidest thing would make me cry. if someone told me i was pathetic, i would cry just cuz it would remind me of him. i couldnt even go to the vending machines since they would have a drink named 'shani' (his nickname). it was SOOO hard. id look at my phonebook in my cell and know that hes never gonna call me again or hes never gonna sms. i knew that a lil window in my msn wont ever say "shani has signed in" i knew i would never hear his AWESOME australian accent EVER. it was just reallly hard.

ever since december started, i couldnt help but think its almost gonna be a year! i wont say i have thought about him every single day of the year, but i have thought about him ALOT! there was sooo much that would remind me of him. everytime i pray for my nana (mom's dad) and my phopho (dad's sister) who have also passed away, i pray for zeeshan. everyday before aftaar this whole ramadan, i would pray for him. whenever id get the chance, id pray extra 'nafil' for him. only cuz i know he needs it:( lets just hope he rests in peace now. may Allah give him the best there.

zeeshan-you know i loooove you! and you cant even imagine how much i f-ing miss you!

this isnt even half of what i feel and im not great writer to put it in excellent words. just tried to make myself feel better. and like i say, a part of me has died with him whereas i try to keep a part of him alive with me.

i prolly dont make sense, so just ignore this.

lets see, this week has been ALOT better than last week:) and thank god for that. hmmm, didnt do much yet. ooh, actually i did:D today saud and i went out killing time and we ended up in front of this ice skating ring and bowling alley. i dragged him with me to see how thier ring actually is and if women are even allowed to skate (like mall of dhahran, only kids??) hehe, it was soooo nice:D i cannnt wait to go there with FUN people. and i repeat FUN! anyways being there made me miss those times we would go ice skating every weekend with nikki (misss youuu girl) she tried rlly hard teaching us but that apparently didnt work out. we even went with samia once and thats was also fun. the best part is falling down and then laughing like crazyy and then trying to stand up and then falling again and then laughing and on..:P hehe, miss those crazy times. which reminds me i need to post about skiing too:D oh welll...

oh well.. didnt really have class today. just sat and talked to the masoud in class and complained:S was pathetic until this friend of mine walked into class an hour late. and it made me go like "*gasp* HOTNESS" hahaha, seriously he looked super hot today. i liked his style and all anyways but whaaaooo, the whole saudi look with thoob adds to it:P and then of course there are those 3 streaks of dyed hair (dyed by his sister, i might add), and the pierced ear:P hahaha, NO i dont obssess over him and stare at him. its just that when i was helping him with one of the assignments i noticed these things. hahaha, oh well.. randomness!

what else? oh, theres this guy i have to stop talking to and i cant get myself to tell him that =\ hes actually a friends friend. well, WAS a friends friend and thats how i got to know him. and now they dont talk so i dont rlly feel right talking to him. thats one thing i dont like about myself. i can NEVER say anything mean on anyone's face. ill sms/email, but cant ever on the phone or in person. for that matter, i cant even say 'NO' to anyone :S i have gotten myself into sooooo many situations where i end up doing stuff i dont want to only cuz i cant say no. let it be going for coffee with some wierd guy or going over to a random persons house to study! oh well, thats just me:P

hmmmm, oh im gonna skip school tom! *yayyyy* hahaha
anyways, time to go spend some time with the tv (he rlly misses me:P) hahaha.

welll, this week was pretty blah
sunday- just one of those stupid regular first-day-of-the-week. well, sort of got into a fight with a friend but it really wasnt a fight. i thought he was mad at me but then all that apparently was a figment of my imagination:P

monday-i think i had an exam that day. ooh, yeah i did! interactive system. went okay.. did something VERYYYY pathetic but then again. thats just me:P hahaha oh, and i was begining to think it was already thursday:( but it wasnt even CLOSE to that

tuesday-had an open book exam with masoud. he still managed to screw all of us up. god, that guyyyy needs to go kill himself sometime VERY soon.

wednesday- had another exam. was pathetic got done in 5 mins and then i just sat and looked at people in my class for about 15 mins. dang it, we need more hot guys:P

thursday-YAYYYY!! finallly, TGIH? haha, doesnt make sense but you get the point dont you?? i had ANOTHER/LAST exam that day. it was java. screwed up SOOOO badly. you know im starting to believe.. back in the day, either some really dumb guy (abbas? tehmoore?) OR the girls in my caclulus class(*gasp* fatima? bushra? y-y?) put a curse on me:P and it prolly was something like.. 'once she fails one test, she wont pass AT ALL after that' hahaha, i swear to god:P after that freaking masoud test i failed, im struggling quite honestly:P hahah, lets just hope i manage to survive or else id be left with no other option than dropping out of college and running away to the bahamas with.... dammit, i need someone to run with! *sigh* oh welll, enough of college. sooooo, when we were finalllly done with classes and all we decided to go for sheesha!

sheesha- it needs its own paragraph and special font:P hahaha oh well..it was hilarious! to we ran into our university president at the cafe we went and he was also sitting there and having sheesha:P we OBVIOUSLY didnt wanna smoke in front of him:S haha, was soo funny. then, we didnt get the couches we wanted to sit on:(. but this eygption guy who was hitting on sameera (*wink*) got us a nice place to sit:D we sat and waited for our sheeshas while we watched some arabic songs on tv:P oh welll, may and i ordered sweet melon and saud ordered cocktail. hahaha, and i think may and i have developed a habit of NOT liking our sheeshas and hoggin the persons who takes us there:P saud was nice enough to let us get hooked onto the cocktail:P hahaha, you are the best:D oh well, the only thing was sameera made me feel soo bad:P hahaha, she doesnt smoke and niether does she plan on trying! oye sammy stop making us feel bad/awara:P oooooooooohhh, and you know what the funniest thing is?? if you have some sheesha and then drink some diet pepsi it tastes all spicyy! hahaha, spicy diet pepsi:P

oh welll, the bus ride back was fiine too until mayatee got upset. now, thats one person i NEVER want to see cry/upset. its soo hard:( i swear to god, shes one person who makes me think life IS fun. and its not the big things in life that can make some smile/laugh, its the stupid lil things :)

oh well, this was my week:P take careee

-people yelling at me- i just dont like it when people yell at me. PERIOD. makes me cry. btw, all of the above can manage to make me cry:P
-scary movies- no matter how corny they are, i just can NOT watch them.
-big black guys in downtown philadelphia- im not a racist but they just scare me. i feel like they are gonna smack me:P
-CRAZY roller coasters- yes, i have been on most of them but they sure were scary!!
-deep waters- well, i DID but considering the fact that i cross a bridge over the gulf sea EVERY SINGLE day (twice, i might add), i feel like i have gotten over it:P
-masoud- yes, that freaking guy scares me to death. id rather go kill myself than skip his class:P hahaha

thats it i guess. i mean i certainly hope this is it:P hahaha

man, i was actually excited about putting something fun here. but my blogs already gettng boring and its been what? 3 and a half days (like may would say)? hahaha

oh well, ill try to make it fella!

soo, thursday! you know what the worst feeling is? waking up to go for university and the WHOLE house is asleep cuz technically its the weekend in saudi. and sinceee i freaking have to cross borders i get stuck waking up early and going thru the whole 'cant-be-bothered' stage. (run-on sentence? mrs marcos is gonna be rllly upset with me:P) hehe, anyways so i had two tests todayyy and i dont know whats wrong with me. i cant be bothered for anything other than masoud. i did not study atttt all for either of them. actually i did, i read the first page of my java notes and tried figuring something out until i slept on them(literallyy) and woke up by the *crunch* of it:P hahahaha thankfully, we didnt have that test today. but even if we did, i had a back-up plan..FATIN! *wink* haha. my other test was fiiine. i finished an hour long test in 15 mins. kidna got me worried there but then i was like 'aaah, i dont care:P' and just left the class.

oh well, i was thinking of getting my haircut today during my break but then mayate insisted that i get it cut with her after we get done. i was sort of worried since she is all about WHACKO hairstyles but she promised me she wont say a word to me at the parlour:P hhahaha (i loooove you:P) except maybe convince me to get a fringe. hahaha. which reminds meeee, my hair is oh-so-super long these days. i have never had them this long ever! i was always one of those girls who ALWAYS had short hair and convinced most of the girls around me to cut thiers short too since it looks sooo much better, feels better, easier to handle and blah blah. (god, whats with me and looooooong senteces today?:P) i think ill miss them:P which reminds me, ill try to put a 'before-after' picture up here (like someone asked me to:P)

and OHMIGOD!! today is saima bajis dholki!! i cant believe im going to my best friends dholki and SHE is not gonna be there! :'( its gonnna suckk i sweeaaarr!! i neverr thought this would ever happen. i remember back in the day we used to plan how we are gonna do 'this and that' for her sisters dholki/shadi and all. i remember i went to this one dholki once with her and it was soooooooooo much fun dancing with her (hey, both of us are VERY straight:P haha)!! and everyone was like "ager sarah-yasmin nahi hotey tho dholki per ronaq nahi hoti" (hahaha, ill try to translate it:P 'if sarah and yasmin wouldnt have been here at the dholki it wouldnt have been fun' doesnt sound too right but thats the best i can do now:P) *sigh* i miss you yasmin! i certainly hope no one asks me to dance today. its gonna be soo wierd! :S heyyy, which reminds me, abeer ill prolly get to see your mom and amna tonight!! *yyaaaayyyyyyy* i swear to god, i want my daughter to be as girlie as she is. soooooooo cute!! mashallahh:D

the week of midterms =S

2006-11-13T05:56:00.000-08:00

okayyy, so i have finally figured out how to add posts. and hey, for beginners its not easy to figure your way around. its confusing!! the designer of this website did NOT keep usability goals in his/her whatsoever! [i wonder if i can get kicked out of this website for this:P] eh, maybe its only cuz of the interactive designing class i have this semester. *sigh*

aaah, this semester is SOOOOO crazy! i guess i just have rlly hard subjects. i cant even skip anymore. can YOU imagine?? hahaha! oh well, sooo midterms! im not so sure if i should be depressed or laughing (like i am right now) about my first one. it was control systems *pukes* with masoud! *pukes ALL the intestines out* and yeah, i failed! i got 48.75% and id like to consider it a 49:P hahaha, its actually the first time EVER i have failed :\ and when i got my midterm back today i burst out laughing in class. actually, come to think of it, i think i failed a physics test too back in 12th grade. eh, im not sure. hahahaha its funny but when i think about a D on my transcripts (i know i wont get an F for sure, cuz the prof says he gives a D if you only just show up in class/exams. or else im sure i would have managed to pull an F) it freaks me out. i dont even have a C in college yet. my lowest was a B+ that too in calculus when i was in states (with a freaking chinese prodessor who called me 'sella')

heyyy, you know what i just realized? i liiiiiiiiikke this. i can complain all i want and theres NO ONE to actually stop me or give me those looks:P hahaha *jumps around* now i know where allll my complaints are gonna go. hahaha. oh, this reminds of another thing that pisses the people i talk to off. SHOAIB MALIK! hahahaha, yayyy! i get to write about him too:D haha. and hey those of you reading this and making a face KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE! he HAS been playing welllll for a while now. 69 in the first innings *muaah* hahaha. *sigh* i want him =(

oh, gotta run. have to study for networking tom. i oh-so-badly hope i pass:P btw, its with the same crappy ass professor who failed me.

yalla, byee

p.s. a fewww surprised comments are making me add this to my post. first of all i DID study for the exammm!!! it was just wayyyyy toooo freaking hard. and then, the highest score was a 55. yeah, NO ONE passed! hahaha *phew* i feel better about myself now:P
