IT ALL STARTS WHEN..
prettyweasel64: you know, i bet we have spent at least half a year of our lives on homework already if it was all added up
prettyweasel64: perhaps a year
tare x pandabear: more...
prettyweasel64:
prettyweasel64: year and a half?
tare x pandabear: okay lets do this mathematically
tare x pandabear: how long do we spend on hw daily?
prettyweasel64: um lets say 4-5 hours
tare x pandabear: okay lets go with 4
prettyweasel64: well i was including daily studying
prettyweasel64: but ok
prettyweasel64: 4
prettyweasel64: now 5 days a week
prettyweasel64: so 20 a week
prettyweasel64: around 66 weeks of school...
tare x pandabear: really?
prettyweasel64: yeah
tare x pandabear: i thought there were like a lot less
prettyweasel64: oh wait
prettyweasel64: heh never mind
tare x pandabear: xD
tare x pandabear: about 30 weeks
prettyweasel64: its 58
tare x pandabear: 58?
prettyweasel64: mhmm
prettyweasel64: cause theres 72 weeks a year
tare x pandabear: we spend 10 months in school
tare x pandabear: and each month has like umm 4 weeks
prettyweasel64: and we get 10 weeks off for summer, and 4 more for all breaks
prettyweasel64: so 72-14 = 58
tare x pandabear: how in the world are there 72 weeks per year
tare x pandabear: need some math polishing, my dear
tare x pandabear: so maybe 35 weeks of school..?
prettyweasel64: NO WAIT I MUST FIGURE THIS WHOLE THING OUT
prettyweasel64: >.>
prettyweasel64: <.<
CALCULATIONS:
K-6
10 hours a week
30 weeks of school
300 hours a school year x 7
2100 hours for elementary school
7, 8 grade
20 hours a week
30 weeks of school
600 hours a school year x2
1200 for 7 and 8
9 grade
20 hours a week
9 weeks of school
180 hours so far
1380 + 2100 =
3480 hours spent doing hw
8760 hours in a year
3480/8760 = 0.397
40% of a year
just guessing --
9, 10 grade
20 hours a week
30 weeks of school
600 hours a school year x 2
1200
11, 12 grade
25 hours a week
30 weeks of school
750 hours a school year x2
1500
2700 + 1200 + 2100
6000 hours entire school career up to high school
6000/8760 = 0.685
70% of a year
[edit] dont read if bored.
oh dear. more statistics
tare x pandabear: we spend 25% of our waking hours doing hw
tare x pandabear: and 38% of our waking hours at school
prettyweasel64: that means we have barely any waking hours left to...to...to live!
tare x pandabear: which leaves us 37% of the day to live
tare x pandabear: we have 6 hours in the day to live
tare x pandabear: :D
prettyweasel64: hah
prettyweasel64:
prettyweasel64: wheee
tare x pandabear: 4 hours doing hw, 6 hours at school, 6 hours alive, 8 hours sleeping
prettyweasel64: oh
tare x pandabear: it sure doesnt feel like theres 6 horus alive
prettyweasel64: i dont sleep 8 hours
tare x pandabear: whatever
prettyweasel64: i slee 5-6
tare x pandabear: its just hypothetical
tare x pandabear: xP
prettyweasel64: sleep
tare x pandabear: and theres like 2 hours in the morining
prettyweasel64: 4 on a bad day
tare x pandabear: so really theres only 4 hours to live
prettyweasel64: ??
tare x pandabear: and one you spend eating dinner
tare x pandabear: so theres only 3 hours to live
prettyweasel64:
prettyweasel64: we have no lives...
tare x pandabear: and one you spend waiting at school to get home ish u know
tare x pandabear: so 2 hours to live
tare x pandabear: woah
tare x pandabear: and if you have a sport team or other activity, those 2 hours are GONE
tare x pandabear: therefore, you dont live
homework is taking away my life. ;o
