Speaking of phones, we were talking about sound and how, as you get older, you can't hear some of the higher frequencies that you used to be able to hear when you were younger.
And my teacher brought in this thing that plays at different frequencies, and as he went up higher and higher (I think it was 15,000 Hz), he couldn't hear it anymore, but everyone else could surprised I could only hear up until 17,000 or 18,000 Hz though .__.
But anyways, this has to do with phones, because there was this one kid who set his ringtone to this high frequency thing, which the teacher couldn't hear, but everyone else in the class could.

Yupp I know about that. It has to do with the fluidity in your ears that deteriorate as you get older or something. There's actually a frequency test of that sort on The Oatmeal.

I was pretty satisfied with myself that I could hear it. q:
By the way, some teachers can still hear it. And most phones don't even play the sound in the right frequency.

xD I was relieved. Because I always thought my hearing was dysfunctional or something q:
Well, at least there's something good out of my cell phone always being off/out of battery.

It wasn't the hearing tests that made me nervous in school. It was the eyesight tests >< But I think I always passed them perfectly.
Until last summer at the doctor's office D: My right eye went from 20/20 to 20/25. It must have gotten worse by now.
xD There's an app for everything. I love playing the Moron Test :]

It's a very funny test that's more challenging than you might think at first :]
It can be kind of frustrating though in the beginning ^^;

Okay so my friend bought and we were messing with it during Government after the test and it turns out it's really quiet. We were planning on messing with the whole class and in English when we were going to watch a movie but that wasn't going to happen.
