   Almost done...

I am sooooo ready to be out for break. I need time to just slack off for a while. Azure, in response to your comment on my last post, my school does have exemptions...only with a few catches: 1. you must be a senior 2. It is for 2nd semester exams ONLY 3. you must have a 3.0 GPA atleast 4. You can only miss like...3 days of school during the second term. They all make sense. I can't wait until I don't have to take exams. I took my english exam today, with its two AP format essay questions. It was so hard. She let us make outlines for each of the essay prompts (yeah, we got to see the prompts) then we could use those on our exam. I took mine from Johnny, this incredibly smart asian guy in my class. But I also made a few of my own too. She said when she was grading the essays from yesterday, she almost cried they were so good. Then she had to go through and check over our outlines before we could use them (for cheating, etc.) and she said she could've cried when she looked at mine! She thought they were wonderful, except that they bordered on being a sentence outline, which we aren't allowed to have; we can only use phrase outlines. I was just really happy she liked them. We got 1.5 hours to take the exam, and I was on the beginning of my third paragraph for the first essay when she said we had 20 minutes left. She let me stay 10 minutes after class to finish my last essay. The first essay I wrote was so good! But the second one sucked because I wrote it in like...15-20 minutes. >__> I'm confident though. I know I told ya'll that I would have the new layout up and running by now, but I still can't use my computer. Everytime I use it it dies. >__> My mom said we are gonna take it to get looked at soon enough. I got my class ring on Tuesday! I am so excited about it. It is gorgeos. I got a small "traditional" ring with a peridot stone in the midde. The stone is absolutely wonderful. Check this out. Gatsby's American Dream. I really like them. I just happened to type the name of their band in on Google when I was looking for help with my essays. >__< But they are pretty good. The site design is pretty nifty. The shirts rock my face off. Give 'em a listen. I love Adam (not founder Adam, but my friend Adam)!!! He bought me the first and third books of Angel Sanctuary for Christmas. I am soooooo happy. ^__^ The book store didn't have the second volume though, so he said he was going to get it for me later. *squeels* So wonderful. In return, I bought him Final Fantasy VIII. I hope he doesn't already have it. I bought Chase this incredibly hilarious book that I will have to borrow often entitled Michael Moore Is A Big Fat Stupid White Man. How crazy is that?! It is basicly this book pointing out all of the contradictory things Michael Moore says/does. Chase loathes Michael Moore so I'm sure he will love it. And now I leave you with an excerpt of the book from above: Seven Questions. Seven Answeres After leading off Dude with fourteen pages of Mike's woes, we finally get to Chapter 1, comprised of seven questions directed to George W. Bush. Although President Bush has yet to reply to Moore (a few trifling presidential duties keeping him busy and all of that) we can imagine the answers he might provide to Moore's seven questions. Question No. 2: What is the "special relationship" between the Bushes and the Saudi royal family? A very special one, Mike. In case you haven't heard, Saudi Arabia is the top supplier of oil to the United States, the site of several of our key military bases, and our ally in both Gulf wars. Do you want a president who is on a first-name basis with their international leadership or not? I suppose you'd be happier if el presidente was, instead, on a first-name basis with the president of France, you know, Jacques what's his name? Sorry Mike, but we need oil more than we need cheese and canned garden snails. *dies of laughter* ^__^
