So, school started today...
And it got off to a lovely start. My friend got me an Inuyasha plushy, with a little Tetsusaiga and everything! So cute! And I got a mix CD, which I really like. Pretty good songs therein. Though I still need to go to the college and download some more music...
I got to see some of my really good friends, and one of my friends is now a freshman. I so proud! *weepy happy face*
So, we have a new principal this year, and I've heard good and bad, but I won't judge. Though I wish he'd talk a little clearer... I got the wrong homeroom today, got a bit lost. Yes, I'm a senior and I still get lost in my high school. It's changed every year I've been there. So what?
This year, my school is offering French I through distance learning. Makes me happy anyway. So this is this semester's schedual:
1-French One
2-College Algebra
3-Chamber Singers (Elite Choir)
4-Advanced Placement Liturature
5-East Lab II
6-World Geography
7-Student Aide
Now, today's happenings:
First, I got the wrong homeroom, and I ended up sitting next to this chick who had plastic surgery over the summer when I got to homeroom. I still need to get senior photos, don't want to, and won't ever take antihistamens as a sleep aid again. I was still tired. And the first three classes were whacked.
Second, French was interesting, but there was some idiot that didn't understand that the teacher could see us and hear us when we aren't on mute. That dumb... Gonna stop right there.
Then, in Algebra, I got called out (along with 3/4ths of the class) to change my schedual. I'm in there for over an hour just to find out that I really have no options for a different 5th class. I missed day one of Chamber Singers for that?! Sheesh. I wouldn't have minded missing AP lit though.
I wasn't sure I'd get in that class so I didn't get the work. I don't think she's going to let me make it up, either. So I'm plowing through Macbeth and Hedda Grabler. By the way, if you ever need a quick, footnote enhanced play to read, Hedda is good for that. Unless you want to avoid mentions of death. 'Cause several people die in it.
My friend who gave me the Inuyasha plushy takes vo tech, so he leaves during lunch. The meany leaves me... J/K! Before 4th period, I got a 25$ gift card for Wal-Mart for my ACT Grade, and a 50$ check for improvement. So I'm a happy woman... maybe I can go to Hot Topic...
Fifth period has an extra 15 minutes tacked on for remediation, since it's a state law that we have to remediate people who are less than proficient in some subjects. Which makes our school day end at 3:20. Lovely, ne?
Sixth period I have with another friend, and there's not much to say about that, except it's the same teacher who taught my 9th grade civics and AP History last year. She's really lightened up.
I got to help in the office today 7th period, so I have officially reached a new low. I am... Drumroll please... The Glorified Go-Fer! Yeah, errand girl to the establishment. Lovely lovely... Someday, they'll pay! For being so damn confusing! Yeah, that'll be the day monkeys type the complete works of Shakespeare and speak coherent english too.
I remembered today exactly why I never wear skirts as well. I'll only say that it has to do with the wind and a terrible, unwanted, unintentional Marilyn Monroe imitation.
So, anyone going to see Corpse Bride when it comes out? I intend to, looks funny.
Oh, one last thing that sucks about my state? They've made it a law now that we can't have sodas at lunch! Or at least the school can't sell them. I'm gonna have to bring my own caffeine then. Drat it.
I think this is the longest post I've ever written, the stupid character sheets included. Well, laters!
