I had the big Georgia Govornor's Honors test thing today. I just barely finished within the time limit. All in all, I thought that test was not too easy but not too hard, just slightly above normal difficulty. I ended not missing all of 5th period, so I copied all the classwork with that opportunity. Uh oh, two tests are working their ways up on Friday!
Not much news other than that.

School again. Wow.
I've been much more forgetful this week. Forgot to do two other assignments. One, the teacher gave me until the end of the day to finish, and the other one... turns out it's due tomorrow. I almost exploded before I figured that out :<
I finished The Wind in the Willows today. At least I have another book off my back, heheh. Still gotta take that book test and finish my presentation that's due in two weeks.
Starfox Command kind of stinks. Its main weakness is that flipping time limit. Gets me all jumpy because I have five seconds left, and my hand's not exactly steady on the Touch screen to begin with. Oh well, at least it has Wi-Fi. Now someone get it, so I can show you my awesome outdated skills with the Control stick =D
I wish they had come up with Wi-Fi in the days the N64 was around. Then I'd kick a few more behinds, haha.
There's approximately a million games coming out that I would like now, too, haha. I guess it's time for me to catch up on my Mario games a bit.
Which reminds me, in P.E. today...
Our coach is awesome at volley ball. And I guess his skill rubbed off on me a bit now, too, because I can actually serve. Halfway decently.
Anyways, he likes to jump serve. Our class has taken to calling it the "Super Mario Jump Serve" whenever he does it. When he hits the ball, we all shouted "Bing!"
...Yes.
And I figured out what I wanted to be for Halloween. My sister burst out in laughter, my brother looked confused, and my mother gave me a strange look. But I can probably make most of it myself, so I'm happy. Very happy, haha.

Today was over-all an interesting day. Morning I woke up at 6:20 to meet a friend at school to work on a project. Some project on the Bahamas. Anywho, I had to make a brochure to hand out to the class so they didn't have to take notes. Efficient... Later I had computers. Practised motion tween and made another little anymation (no typo  ). So now I've got a badly done soccer player, a flying apple, and zoro. They all look pretty neat... except the soccer player... and that took me a week... Then came English, we had a sub, and I was feeling tired. I finished the first handout, and the second was a poem, so I looked over it, jacket on the desk, and pretended to read... for an hour... the same poem. Hey, I needed the sleep. Math, oh man, I HATE math... well, I like Geometry, but our class is crazy. Our teacher is just so frustrated. There are THREE quiet students in the class. EVERY time I've had a math class this year, it's been LOUD. Instead of assigning us problems 1-6, 9-13, 22-32, and stuff, he just said "screw it" and made it go from 1-56. A kid broke a pen today in class, everyone was playing a joke on him and talking right when he explained the problem. I threw the broken pen at him when he was asked to leave... I feel guilty now. AND SO after school, I watched another conspiracy theory movie on 9/11... and this one made me topple from confused to conspirast. It's made me realize you can't always trust people... like when people rip you off in runescape... or when there's propaganda. In fact, there's a BOOK called propaganda that's all about psychology, and I want to get my hands on it... Ran three miles today... that's 12 times around the school's track. We always go near 5:30, and the football team trains in the middle of the track, takes my mind off the cramps. Current homework assignment: Make a family tree. I interviewed my mom and what she knew about her parents. Apparently most of my maternal family has been addicted to smoking, eating, and coffee. Good day  |

School, the most evilest place ever. Except when there are people to brighten up everyday. School has been a hassle, I'm been staying up until 11 to finish homework but I'm coping with it. I just wonder if we could do more work in class than at home, WE HAVE LIVES TOO!! I know math and science are my strong points but when it comes to ILA... I die from exhaustion. I just don't like writing essays, yet I like writing fictional narratives. The things that surprised me in school is my classmates. Like today there was kid who had a macaroni box in his boxers and kept shouting "Teh shapes!!" I hate being on the outside of inside jokes. There was another student who randomly drank the substitute's snapple green tea, got a lunch detention, and left a loogy on the bottle cap. Later the substitute left a note saying that they owe them a drink. XD I love my class. Nothing says bonding like backwash! XD Just had to get that out of my system... I. Am. Bored. School... Sucks. Bleh... |

...Am I missing out on some anti-educational opportunity or something?
So far, up to this last day before autumnal equinox, school is a blast for me, even in PE (which is a miracle since PE is my least adored subject). The only class I'm not too excited about is English; English has never been a fun class for me anyway. History is a bit boring too; gotta love those monotone lectures.
Spanish rocks, though. Everyday, I manage to find some way to laugh in that class. Pre-Calc is among my favorites this year as well. Those TI-92 calculators sure are fun... Business Law is quite interesting and extremely easy too. Same with Chemistry.
I could use a cell phone to play with in Band, though (but not Jazz Band). And ASR is... well, ASR.
Friday is my birthday. Nothing says "Happy Brithday!" quite like two study halls and talking about Bob Vila in Spanish. Seeing Bill Engvall on Saturday should be fun.

Ever get the feeling that that "March to Doom" song from Command and Conquer is appropriate?
Quantum Mechanics is going to kick my ass.

Quantum Mechanics? Wow, that's like stuff I only hear about on TV and nowhere else. Good luck with that.
English is... blah. Nothing special. We just had our first paper, an argumentive essay. All the class periods consist of lectures and reading from the textbook. I usually doodle in my notebook.
Geography is cool 'cause all of the grades in that class are based off of online quizzes and exams. No worksheets or anything. I guess there's a downside to that, too. I have to actually read the book, since the lectures don't cover everything.
And my college put me into such an uber easy math class, that I want to stab myself with a banana whenever I attend. It all feels like 1+1 to me. D:
I'll most likely take the CLEP test for it just to get it over with. Maybe I'll take the Spanish CLEP, too, to get some Humanities credits out of the way.

I wish I was in a Math class like that. XD
This morning I had my first midterm in Healthy Life Skills. I feel pretty good about it too, because I stayed up studying for the thing until at least 11:30 at night. Of course I read over my notes like 3 times, because I like to go by memorization. XD
This evening I have opera auditions. Fun fun. XD

School pictures were yesterday and I got my haircut just before. And as always, you just can't get your hair cut and expect it to be close to what you want, my hair is way too short. Anyways, I hope my pictures are as good as they used to be. I'm not a very photogenic person anymore.
I've been up a little too late the past few days studying for tests and stuff. I'm extremely tired, I can almost fall asleep while standing up. But luckily one more day and one more test to go, then it's time for some sleep.

School has been somewhat hectic... In algebra our teacher floods us with homework and assignments, one thime she actually expected us to do like 3 classwork assignments in a half hour!
English really hasn't bothered me so far. In fact, it's one of my favorite classes because it passes by so fast.
Then Lunch, which is good.
The choir room is horribly hot, and trying to sit up while you're sweaty and cramped isn't easy. And our songs have innuendos in them. For example:
-It is called" Parade of the wooden soldiers"
-One line says "Stiff as Starch"
-And the most surprising line says "In the morning, Without a warning"
See what I mean?
But overall it hasn't been too bad.

Well yesterday didn't go very well, the new graphics card that I ordered didn't fit the bus slots in my computer, so I'm going to have to exchange it for one that's compatible. The part that got me annoyed is that: A: I should have noticed this and ordered another card instead 2: I've just gone over bus slots in my A+ course III: I'm supposed to be a near expert with computers (at least compared to everyone else in my school) it's one of the few things I'm great at Four: Now I have to return it and we know how easy a process that is... Needless to say I'm not pleased with myself... Shortly after that the small wind gusts that we had knocked out my internet connection for the evening, which basically cut me off from the world since I live in the middle of nowhere. On to today, my internet connection is back up (obviously, so I guess I can stand down from Red Alert ) the other 2 items I ordered came in and I found a new Graphics Card which will fit in my computer, (I can only hope  ) |

I would of thought today would be awesome, but its just like any other day I guess. It started like this ^^.
My Psychology teacher cancelled class today because of Jury duty. I was totally excited about having less time to deal with school XD. However, I still had my physics class at the time so it was really nothing THAT special ^^.
But then I was told later on that my physics class and Physics Lab class was cancelled today because my teacher was "busy" with some other stuff (he didn't give details). So all my classes were cancelled and I got the day off XD.
I thought it would be awesome, but I was wrong. I woke up, and have been so freakin bored for the last 4 hours ^^.

Something funny happened this morning. I set my alarm for 6:55 this morning cuz I had my only class for today at 8. This morning when I woke up I hit the snooze button and fell back asleep. Then I wake up again, its now 7:42!! So I had to rush to get clothes on and I couldnt fix my hair so I put on a hat. XD But luckily I made it to my class on time. And since then I had music rehearsals all....day....long. XD

Yay, I'm old.
Today was awesome. The only blemish was that I was delayed coming home from school because a train blocked traffic on the street that my bus travels on to get to the general area of where everyone on the bus lives. Hopefully, I'll have my license soon.
...I still haven't signed up for a road test.

I've had a stupid day so far. Lack of sleep has finally hit me. I woke up this morning at 4:28am and after seeing the clock, I shot up thinging about how late I was (I usually wake up at 6:10am). After about a minute I realized that it was the 4th hour, not the sixth. And when the alarm clock went off, I was thinking about how stupid I was for not turning the alarm clock off and that it was Saturday. Again, another minute or two and... *sigh* I had a frapiccino when I got home and I'm running off of that right now. XD I hope I did good on the test today, I was half asleep the entire day.

I was grounded yesterday for not paying attention to my dad while I was reading :<
My parents think I have a C in Spanish, while I actually have a B+. They're still making me memorize half the book over the weekend, because my mom says "She won't know that my grade is a B+ before next Friday." What the heck? My teacher came up to me and told me personally that my grade was a B+ after I had done corrections and stuff today. Gah!
But now I'm bored. I wanted to scan a few pictures (birthday present included), but my scanner doesn't want to connect to the PC again no matter how many times I restart everything like it says to.
