A Long Three-Something Days, and I'm TIRED!!!!
Start: 9:35 PM CST
OH MOMMY!!! I DON'T WANNA POST!!! I WANNA SLEEP!!!
The longer I stay in this school, the more miserable I am! I have to wake up at 5 AM, then I get home at 9 PM! Then I stay up all late to do homework, and I never have time for computer, T.V., or even SLEEP!!! *cries*
Monday/Labor Day (After Posting)
Remember I told you that Alex wanted to go biking? Yah, well, Diana and I changed really fast and biked to the school in front of Nickkie's house! At first, I thought she wasn't there...
So she had to call her mom to tell her that Vy and Nickkie were there! Problem was: Vy was at a party at Chi's house, where they were enjoying the food! So I had to pretend to be Vy, and Diana had to pretend to be Nickkie. I wondered why she always had to lie when we hung out. I found out that it's because her mom doesn't like her hanging out with younger people. (I'm a year younger than her, and Diana's...three years younger?)
So lots of laughing, giggling, and stupid stuff at that corner, where we tried to disguise our voices. UGH, I can't sound like Vy! And when Alex told Diana to do Nickkie's voice in a high voice saying "Hi!", she went and said, "COOKIE!!!"
Good thing Alex's older brother picked up. *sigh*
So as quickly as we could, we biked off to Burger King! Diana was biking SO SLOW!!! So we switched bikes. OH...MY...GOSH. This bike is so HARD to pedal! (No wonder she's always slow!!!) The even more horrible thing was, even using MY bike, I was faster than her. (Isn't that sad?)
Well, we DID make it to Burger King, and I ordered food. Diana only wanted fries, so I ordered food for me and Alex...with Alex's money. *sweats* Eh, after getting our food, I thought that I wanted a separate drink and fries from Diana. (We were gonna share, but eh...) So I bought more. And so, we tried to eat as fast as we could, and even, in the end, we had a TON of fries left over! (So I stuffed them inside a paper bag, rolled it up, and put it into my Nike bag!)
So as quickly as we could, we biked towards Alex's house! (She had to be home at 7-7:30 PM EXACTLY.) And Diana's bike--my old bike--IS SO SLOW.
On the way back, we were stopped by a Vietnamese man who was walking around, looking for a street called "Prairie Oak"... Hmm, I don't recognize ANY of the streets around there... *laughs* So in Vietnamese, I said, "I'm sorry, I don't know." and we biked off...
Alex got home, but when she did, she realized she lost her watch!!! (NO!!! How come EVERY time we go biking together, we always end up losing something?! A cell phone--got it back, a hat--got it back, and now a watch?!) Hopefully, we get that back too.
So Diana and I biked off home...and I was tired after that. Showered, and headed to bed.
Tuesday
Headed back to school. NOOO... DOOM.
In Digital Graphics and Animation, we worked more on our fruit Photoshop picture, and he told us a story about a man who had brain damage. He was very smart, but he couldn't recognize faces after the accident. He couldn't tell who his wife or his kids were. So when scientists did an experiment on him, and showed him a picture of his wife, they asked, "Who is this?"
Guess what he replied? "I don't know. Is it a hat?"
I'm not KIDDING HERE. You see, as humans, we tell the difference between ourselves MOSTLY by our faces. Same with animals and their stripes, spots, etc.
Oh...the class on the other side of us was being REAL LOUD. Lots of screaming and stuff, and some people thought it was because people were dying! *laughs* We thought there wasn't a teacher in there, so our teacher sent one of our students to check, and guess what? They were doing a skit. *laughs* A very NOISY script with lots of screaming...and killing? *bursts out laughing*
We went to Advisory after that. Hehe, it was so quiet, and then when one girl at the end of Advisory asked, "Can I have a piece of candy?" (There was a plate of candy in the middle of our table filled with Life Saver Cremes and black-colored peppermint candy.) I asked too and got one, but all the other students just grabbed ALL of them until there was only three pieces left. *laughs*
WEIRD. After asking one of my friends, when I asked her about English homework that day, squealed to one of her friends and said, "He's so cute!" (And her friend replied, "Yeah...a boy with glasses and looks like a nerd. How cute." And this was a boy saying this... *laughs*)
Oh! In Geometry, I almost got late, but the bell had run early. Our regular teacher had returned back from her maternal leave! Um, we graded all our work from the past weeks, and yeah... Lots of grading. Plus, we had a test... NOOO...
Thi managed to finish it. Oh! I headed over to the Robotics Club, and I found Janice and Chi! Well, I hung out with them and sat down and listened to the rules, and signed up! We split into groups where Janice, Chi, and I went into the programming section. Most of us knew HTML (Chi didn't), but for this, we had to study XSL... ARGHHH... THE PAIN! I worked with some CSS tables and stuff that I used to do on MyOtaku, and a lot of people were amazed by what I could do... *laughs*
When I was sitting in the class, I kept thinking, "Wow, there are so many nerds here!" (Don't take that offensively, but that was the first word that popped up into my mind! *laughs*)
Well, after a long decision, Chi took Janice, Vy, Kai, and I on a ride home, with her mom driving. BLAH, I was so carsick that day. I kept thinking, "I wanna get out and walk home instead..." (My head was spinning...)
Hehe, Kai fell asleep. Poor Kai... *sweats*
That day, I got home around 6 PM, I think? I ate some cookies and found my mom upstairs, watching old videos from the past. WOW, was I annoying when I was little. *laughs*
Later that day, Kai asked if he fell asleep. I replied:
"No, Chi, Janice, Vy, and I knocked you on the back of your head until you were unconcious, dragged you into the van, and did naughty horrible things to you."
(Of course, I was being sarcastic. Oh, and I was about to write "naughty", but "horrible" seemed less...weird. *laughs*)
Oh! I know where Kai lives now! And I FINALLY heard him speak Vietnamese! Of course, I felt weird speaking Vietnamese to Chi's mom. I hate my Vietnamese speaking.
Wednesday/Yesterday
Umm...I don't remember exactly what happened. I kept saying, "I wanna go back to bed." Even after I changed my clothes, I hopped into bed ans slept 20 minutes away... *sweats*
OH! Anita said she might move out of the school, and Brad's moving...to a "white school". Eh? Actually, he's moving to another house too, somewhere else... He's going to Hawaii for a week, and when he comes back, he'll be in a new house. He's leaving...by the end of September.
In IPC, we did an experiment where we tried to dissolve Jolly Rancher candy inside an acid. (We measured if more surface area would increase the dissolving.) Of course, it was VERY loud, with everyone mixing and banging the glass OVER AND OVER AGAIN. K.K. and Rehman were in my group...and we wore aprons and "pretty" goggles. Heh.
Uhh...busy. TOOK TOO LONG. The melting/dissolving, I mean. TOO LONG. (We dissolved it in a Coke/Sprite mix. We could've used a stronger acid! LIKE VINEGAR!)
It got BORING after a while...
And we cleaned up--me being a neat freak--packed up, and left. Of course, I had Transition there, so I went to my locker, came back, and washed my hands. (My hands still smelled like the chemicals from the lab.)
Well, Laura and I used the computers to type up some of our reports. (I had to do IPC and English reports.) We had a little trouble printing with the printer at first... *sweats* (I helped Laura.)
OH! Our regular teacher, Mrs. Johnson, was in the hospital at that same time having her baby! YUP. So we had a sub! Laura (I didn't find out her name until today!), me, Bianca, and a few other people were just talking about our old school and stuff. Bianca was talking about how she was being stalked on MySpace (that's common now, for some reason...), how snakes, ants, cockroaches (our IPC teacher just said "Ew." when she heard that word), and a bunch of other critters crawling around her old school. She said they found a snake in the food once! But since the food was cooked with boiling water (school food cooked with boiled water, yes), the snake couldn't survive, and it died. EW, what weird/gross stories we told. But it was fun, ya know?
In Geography, we had to do a packet. OH! And we found out our homework? It wasn't for a grade! After we did our homework, he said we could THROW IT AWAY. WHAT THE...?!
In Lunch today, I kept looking for Chi and Jonathan. A senior (or junior) in line asked me if I was smart, and what my GPA was... I told him I didn't know, but he responded that it was probably higher than his. (Eh???)
I found Chi, and she didn't get in line. I told her I would share my food, so she grabbed my burger... H-hey! *sweats* She didn't really eat that day, and Jonathan was being...WEIRD.
I went into the bathroom to wash my hands, and this guy kept staring at me... (Why did everyone that day stare at me? Was it my clothes? I was wearing a black jacket with a black T-shirt and blue jeans. Does that make me weird? *laughs*)
My mom said that my jacket smelled like smoke earlier in the morning. She even asked if one of my friends SMOKED. (Ugh, no way!)
Oh! One of the Indian girls that sits behind me told me I looked like Harry Potter. (I get that so much. Dunno why.)
In Fitness, we sat down and took roll. Our coach was here today. OH! That day in class, Raul went up to Kai in first period and said, "You smell like cough drops." The guy sitting behind Kai said, "You're queer..." (He called both of them queer...?) And Kai said, "I can imagine HIM saying it, but not you..." ("HIM" is me.) That sounds like an insult! And he said, "That's like saying, 'Kai, you smell refreshing!' or 'Kai, I want to eat you!'" (We had to explain to him what medicine was...)
Later in Fitness, we had to WALK on the track field! The track runners, at first, were telling us to get out of the track field, but we had to stay out of their lanes. GAH. In that stadium, when it's REAL hot (I mean, you can even see the air bending!), the track field smells like burning rubber...
So I talked with Kai and Raul. Kai and I just walked and talked, and Raul just went...doing a lot of exercises for the coach.
Oh! I just realized Terra was in my Fitness class!
After coming in, Kai bought a drink from the soda machine, and we waited for Raul... (Ugh, his backpack is so heavy!!! A black messenger bag, so ya know.) Some guy asked me to exchange quarters for a dollar, and so I agreed. BUT! When I went to the machine, they didn't accept my dollar!
Also, some girls were talking about how skinny guys were sexy, and were talking about a boy wearing a backpack. (I think they were talking about Kai??? I was waiting for Raul on the edge...)
Well, in the end, I found out all the soda machines in the school were EMPTY. And the soda machines stole TWO of my dollars. GAH.
Chi said she saw me and Kai walking together in the Art hallway. Vy replied, "Such friendlyness!" *bursts out laughing*
On the bus, Vy and I sat together...sleeping... Yah.
Oh, I spent 9-10 PM that night making sushi! I promised Chi and Vy I'd make sushi...and so I did.
Thursday/Today
UGH... SLEEP. That's what I needed...IF I DIDN'T WAKE UP SO LATE! (I woke up 40 minutes before the bus came! I'm LATE! It sounds weird, but yes.) Actually, I wait for 15 minutes, so yes.
So my mom cut up the sushi, and I biked to the bus stop, where I rode to school...sitting on half of the seat. That's PAINFUL. Especially when you want to sleep! Plus, the guys on the right of me were trying to yell random things to the people driving in their cars. UGH.
OH! While I was biking to the bus stop, I noticed that the moon was a gold color today. OH! The Moon Festival is coming up!
Eating sushi and cookies in the morning with Aaron and Janice. Janice likes the sushi.
In Gym, I played basketball with Akeel and Brett. Brett was trying to show me how to shoot a basketball correctly... *laughs* But after shooting for a while, I got bored and went to hula-hooping!
Eh, this might not be common, but usually, I'm picked on by Hispanic guys who do the "ching-chong" thing with me. Hehe, I started speaking Spanish to those people in P.E. and they were surprised... They didn't talk about me after that. (Since they were afraid that I'd understand! MUAHAHA!!!)
Well, for lunch, I sat with Christian, Charles, and their group. I tended to finish lunch late again, and I ate some of the sushi I brought along.
OH! We had a test in English! I didn't finish, so tomorrow, I'm going there during Transition to finish it. Of course, waiting for a pass for tomorrow takes a long time...and I was late for Geometry.
Of course--I was able to sneak into the class! (See, in my school, if you're caught in the hallways when the tardy bell rings--you're going to Saturday detention. YUP.)
So I studied and guess what? I GOT A 60 ON MY LAST TEST!!! WAHHH...
I went with Kathy today to the Drama club, and it seems SO FUN! I really wanna join!!! We signed up in the sheets, checked for shirts we wanted to print for the club, met the people. (One of the leaders, Amanda, is really funny! Can't remember what she said though... *laughs*) Terra was in the auditorium then, but she seems so quiet... She's really nice, but she seems shy around other people... Anyways, Kathy headed home with her mom.
Well, after that, I headed over to Robotics with Nam, and we did programming! GAH!!! NOW IT'S XHTML AND CSS!!! (I know CSS already. And XHTML is basically HTML.)
I bought popcorn from two girls who came into our classroom to sell popcorn to raise money! They didn't have change for a $10 though. *sweats* And other people brought in big bucks, like $20, etc. One of the girls said, "Damn, why do you bring big bucks up to school?"
She's also thinking of joining Robotics because she says it looks fun, and it looks like you can do anything in the room. But she was afraid because she was the only girl there. (Actually, Janice and Chi were there!) Well, the guy came back with my change, but it was $2 in dimes and nickels! (I don't WANT dimes and nickels! I want $2 in PAPER!!!)
Yum, vanilla corn. Red, white, and blue popcorn. Janice bought some too, and we started snacking in the Robotics Club.
Uh, after the club was dismissed, Chi and Janice went with Chi's mom to a ride home.
I waited outside and ate popcorn and talked a bit with Michelle until Vy and Kai came out. I shared some of my popcorn with them (Kai wouldn't take any!) and Kai said he didn't give a shit about me... It popped up in the conversation. (It's because I'm a boy, right?)
It was fun talking with Kai and Vy. But some of Kai's talks are so depressing... I won't mention any because he threatens to kill me if I tell. (I don't believe he'll kill me though!)
He just decided to go killing on me today. Vy was poking Kai, and I poked Kai, and he said he would kill me. Of course, I said, "I wouldn't count on you killing me, because look who's right beside you." It was Vy. Of course, now Vy LETS him kill me.
But I don't think he's serious... *laughs*
Fishy jello! (He likes the jello Vy--nicknamed Fishy--made for everyone a few months ago! OHH... At first when he said "fishy jello", we thought it was fish IN jello... UGH. *laughs*)
The bus ride REALLY made my head spin. It hurt me, and I fell nauseous.
I found out Kai wants to become an optometrist. (Eyeglasses doctor!) I poined to my glasses and said, "Maybe you can finally fix this for me." (I meant my vision. *laughs*)
OH! We've kinda decided! Kai and I are going as girls for Halloween, and Vy's going as a guy for Halloween! Why? Well, Vy was talking about this Chinese movie/series she used to watch, about a boy who was in the Chinese theater school, and he got a part in a play, but it was a comcubine. So he had to play a girl. In that play, he kept accidentally saying "man" whenever the script told him to say "woman". So if he was in character--a woman, and he was supposed to say, "I am a woman.", he would accidentally say "I am a man." They BEAT him for that. So eventually, he turned into a girl. Even AFTER the play ended. And he fell in love with the guy who played the girl's lover in the play.
It's weird. I never thought you could be BEAT to make someone gay... (Yes, because of that play, he turned gay...)
So Kai started talking about how he was a girl for Halloween and his friend (a girl) was a boy for Halloween. And that's how we all decided to dress up for next Halloween.
OH! The Moon Festival is coming up soon! Kai said he loves mooncakes, but he hates them. He loves them because a friend once made them especially for him, but he hates the taste of them. *sweats* He's so contradicting...
Well, we found out that the bus we took didn't drop us off by our house. The bus driver asked if any of us had a cell phone, but I said that it was okay, since Kai and I were gonna walk with Vy to her house. (Kai lives CLOSE to where we stopped, but he didn't want to stop without her because he didn't want her walking off by herself.) AWWW...
So we were dropped off at HBMS, and we started on the long trek to Vy's house. Crossing a long street, then a long bayou, then more long streets, and to her house. It was quiet on that walk there, and it turned night...FAST. GAHHH... My feet were so tired!!!
Vy's dad was in the garage (which is his office) doing work and Vy asked her dad to drive us home. Vy's mom and Huy came home, and Vy's dad took Vy's mom's car to drive us. So Kai and I were sitting on the edge of Huy (he just got back from shopping) and Vy and her dad were sitting in front. So I directed him to my house, and got off.
Of course, when I got home--no break. My mom said that it was almost 8 PM--the sun had fell a LONG TIME AGO--and that I should've gotten my bike back from the bus stop area.
So my mom drove me to the bus stop. We tried to fit the bike into the back of the van, but it wouldn't fit, so I decided to bike the rest of the way home.
After that, I took a bath, TRIED to eat--couldn't, and now I'm here, posting. It's TOO LONG.
I HATE THIS SCHOOL. REALLY. I have to wake up at 5 AM and I get home from school around 7-9 PM. Then I stay up all night doing homework until past midnight, where I only get 3-5 hours of sleep, and then get ready for the next day of school.
PLUS. I need a digital camera for my Geometry project--WHICH I DON'T HAVE!!! (Most of my work nowadays relies on a LOT of technology--most of which I don't have.) I need my own computer too. My siblings hog it WAY too much and I don't get time to do my homework in time before sleeping. It sucks.
Good night everyone.
End: 11:01 PM CST
P.S. It'll count this post as Friday, but I posted it on Thursday, so you know.
