MissyMurphy Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Maybe I wasn't looking well enough but there's no post on IB quotes..! And by IB quotes, I mean, funny, goofy moments.. that happen because of sleep-deprivation, brain overload, sugar/coffee high (or low).. or just generally because you're in the IB.. "Me: *looks at diary* Maths test on thrusday.. alright I'm too tired now, but I can revise tomorrow night... -Next Day in Class- Me: Have you revised for tomorrow's test..? I'm so screwed, I'm going to have to revise all night.. K:*odd stare* Erm.. I have to agree you are screwed... today is thrusday and we have maths now..."

Afterglow Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) I'm a quote freak and have loads of funny quotes collected from school - mainly from teachers to put them in the yearbook and etc This one from my chemistry teacher when explaining the rules in laboratory. "There are three sets of rules that you should follow in this laboratory room. The first set is the general school chemistry lab rules. The second set is the IBO rules. The third set are other kind of rules such as the law and etc." Edited October 18, 2007 by Afterglow Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 23755 Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Not really a quote.. but you probably all know that you pretty much have to automatically explain that "tok" means theory of knowledge. NOBODY seems to know it... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitlin Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Hah! A couple of the girls in my Maths class have taken to writing down anything hilarious people have said in our classes over the last two years. They have pages of them now... we're going to make it into a book when IB's over so we can remember all the good times. *sigh* Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dooga Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 (edited) Hey if you guys have quotes, submit it to http://www.ibquotes.com ! I'm helping my friend with that site, and hopefully we can get more global IB quotes other than the inside jokes of our school Edited October 24, 2007 by Dooga Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruan Chun Xian Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Hey if you guys have quotes, submit it to http://www.ibquotes.com ! I'm helping my friend with that site, and hopefully we can get more global IB quotes other than the inside jokes of our school I added a couple. I guess it doesn't show automatically but will be added manually later? Because I checked latest quotes and mine aren't showing. Oh btw, I think you should have a place where you can view all quotes instead of just latest and random and top quotes. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterglow Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Nice site. I remember just now one ToK teacher: (insert here a long, poetic and prestigious definition about what mathematics is). I think however that math...is a broccoli. Oh and this one can be found in last year's yearbook. year three = year two in DP as we count with pre-dp. "In year three you have to be like wine bottles - mature" Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruan Chun Xian Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 This isn't really an IB quote, more like a blonde moment from me. So my friends and I went out for sushi last night (the kind of buffet thing) and the different types of sushi with different prices were colour coded by the colour of the plate. In the end the waitress would come and count the number of plates of each colour on our table and calculate the bill from there. We also ordered 3 bottles of Aquafina mineral water. Anyway, when the bill came, there was this list of plate colours (in both english and vietnamese) and then at the end it said Aquafina. I was just looking at the bill and the english colours and then said, "Aquafina? What colour is that?" Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
