I think it’s Gylenhaal.
I think maybe it’s Gellynhaal.
OH, MY GOD, YOU IDIOTS, IT’S GYLLENHAAL! WOULD YOU TWO STOP PASSING NOTES AND FREAKING PAY ATTENTION? DO YOU WANT TO ALIENATE THE ONE TEACHER WHO ACTUALLY MIGHT TURN OUT TO BE ABLE TO TEACH US SOMETHING USEFUL?????—L
What’s Lilly’s problem today?
Um. I don’t know, exactly. PMS?
Oh, sure. Anyway. So Maggie’s brother’s the one who went out with Kirsten Dunst, right?

Okay.
I can do this. I can totally do this.
Converse:
The converse of a conditional statement is formed by interchanging its hypothesis and conclusion.
Contrapositive:
The contrapositive of a conditional statement is formed by interchanging its hypothesis and conclusion, then denying both.
Inverse:
The inverse of a conditional statement is formed by denying both its hypothesis and conclusion.
So:
Logically equivalent:
A conditional statement: a b
The contrapositive of the statement: not b not a
Logically equivalent:
The converse of the statement: b a
bThe inverse of the statement: not a not b
I’m sorry. WHAT?
Okay, once again, I have managed to prove to be the exception to the rule. If people who are bad at Algebra are supposed to be good at Geometry, then I should be the Stephen Freaking Hawking of Geometry, but guess what? I don’t understand a WORD of this.
Plus, Mr. Harding? Yeah, could he BE any meaner? He already made Trisha Hayes cry over her isosceles triangles, and that’s virtually impossible, since she’s one of Lana Weinberger’s croni
es, and also I’m pretty sure she’s a female cyborg like in Terminator 3.
He’s being totally nice to me, but that’s just because one of his colleagues is my stepdad. Oh, and the princess thing, of course. Sometimes it actually doesn’t hurt to have a six-foot-five-inch Swedish bodyguard sitting behind you.
