Not even sure where to start.(rant)

/post exam rant

I hate exams with 5-10 problems. I often overlook small simple things on exams that I catch immediantly on homeworks.

I just got out of my calculus test and while the test was ridiculously easy for the most part(7 of 9 problems) I somehow let trig identities float out of my head and right after the test saw my mistake and wish I could go back in and fix it.

Here is the mistake:

Find the limit as x goes to zero.
tan 3x
----------- = 1.
tan 4x

which it isn't. the answer is 3/4.

I'm not even going to go into how I got the stupid answer. Lets just put it at sin 3x doesn't equal 3sin x. I should know this. It is simple. But retarded.

That cost me 5 points. I probably lost another 10 for the other trig ident problem.

I'm frustrated because this is the 2nd test where simple math errors have cost me fairly major points.

I slow down and double check my work but still missing things. want to kick face self beat angry.

Guildless.

By
Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.

On being Horde.

By
Obviously we no longer play Horde side. Wulfa has a 70, 45, 32 and numerous other alliance alts now. I've got a 63, 46, 20, 16, 11, 8, 8 Alliance side(all my alliance alts are new since we moved over to Kael'thas, wulfa's playing two characters that already existed before our horde characters were started). But we are two and a half ORCS. Not two and a half random alliance characters. This makes it hard sometimes when I see links to my site or I see a horde shaman etc. It is kind of like going back to your home town and seeing people you used to know and they ask you how your ex-girlfriend is doing. They don't know you split up. You don't really want to talk about it. Etc. Sometimes I think fondly about getting on my Horde shaman and leveling a bit. Nothing ever comes of it. And even less will in the future as I get further and further away from wanting to play those toons. There are things I like on the Alliance side. I like the Dreanai. A lot. Even th...
