Another week gone by....IM SOOO HAPPY!!! Spring Break is the week after next...and i can't wait!!! Skool is too much....way too much work..this year is really, really hard. Im hoping next year...SENIOR YEAR (yay baybe!!) will be easier...i hope i hope...
Im really worrying a bit about AP tests...i signed up (and paid 80 bucks a piece...) for the AP English Language and the AP U.S. History tests. Im not too worried about the english one...im pretty good in that area so if i time myself well ill be fine...its the history im kicking myself for. My teacher has been holding after skool classes mondays and wednesdays, and will start doing it 4 days a week soon so he can prepare us more...its just...AHHH!! i mean...i love the class, the teacher and i find history is interesting..and im not bad at it...its just thinking that the AP exam will be on
all of history. I mean...im cramming for tests now...and they are only on 2 chapeters a piece!! The AP exam is on our ENTIRE book!!! I just dont see how i will remember it all! Then i feel bad...wasting my parents money...those tests are expensive....and between me and my sister they had to fork over $320....wich no guarentee if we'd get high enough marks...o yes..im having a serious guilt trip here. I am gonna be doing some HUGE studying over spring break...no relaxation for me! Im gonna be going down to Myrtle Beach, SC for the break. But ima be working down there...job training for my summer job there, since ill be down there all summer. So on top of working a job, ima have homework and maybe even a project for school...then ima be studying and practicing for the AP tests....and then reviewing and studying for the June SAT test....along with catching up on some school work i've fallen behind on. yup...sounds fun. ...now
thats what i call relaxation!!
After skool on wednesday at the afterskool class for history, we all were talking about the test...i think we all have doubts. Then we started talking about all night study sessions...lol...interesting. This guy Paul said that theres this soda called Jolt Cola that works 100 times better than coffee or chocolate. He said he took one sip and couldn't sleep all night. Now
that sounds like mah stuff...lol.. But he said he doesn't think they sell it in stores anymore...though you can ALWAYS get stuff online! lol..i luv the internet black market. lol. j/k. Then this other guy was telling us all about this web site that sells all these products w/ caffiene in them...everything from soda to snacks...even soap!!! Now...caffiene soaps a bit extreme...i dont wanna kno how
thats supposed to work..but i might check it out...gotta find out the name of the site. I tell ya...these guys got the hook up!! lol
Speaking of history, we had an Adkin's Test on...uh...what day was it....i think wednesday. I thought i did bad but amazingly i got an 80%. I am SO UNBELIEVABLY CLOSE to having an "A" in that class its not even funny!!! I can smell it!! no...i can TATSE IT!!! I am STANDING ON THE STEPS....KNOCKING ON THE DOOR!!! no....the door is OPEN!!! I HAVE ONE FOOT IN!!! And then.....im stuck there...cause i dunno what my grade is now. The quarter officially ends tuesday, but most teachers were doing grades today. Its all up to my group's video project on the "Camp Grant Massacre." I think we deserve an "A" on it...it was funny, informative and etertaining. But...i dont wanna jinx it. Tho...i think i need an "A" on this project to get an "A" in the class...ive NEVER been this close to an "A" in there before!! (for those of u who dunno...an "A" in Adkin's is a remarkable thing...save that report card, frame it..then hang it on your wall. heck...on the only test in his class that i got an "A" on..i have it stuck to the refridgerator!) I think Craig's in the same boat..he said this morning we need an "A" on our project. So now we wait...its all up on the project...theres nothing we can do now....
While im talking about grades...i might as well talk about Archetectural Drafting/Engineering Graphics. U know that model house i built and was talking about? (refer to the previous blog entry...dated 3/30/03) well...it was due today. It looked messed up. Wanna kno what it looked like? Lets turn to what pple said:
WHAT MY HOUSE LOOKED LIKE
1) A bombed Iraqi hut (comment made by: my dad)
2) A bombed Iraqi warehouse (comment made by: my sister...she says it was too long to be a house)
3) A rat house (Comment made by: Choi)
4) A crack house (Comment made by: McClain)
5) our high school (Comment made by: some boy i dont even know...and trust me...something looking like my high school is NOT A COMPLIMENT!!)
Other responses were "Its so ugly!", "What the hell is that?," "Its not...that bad.....i guess....no...its not that bad...," "I bet someone else's is worse," "You tried...," and my absolute favorite: "Megan...DONT become an architect." thanx...i think ill take that advice...
:::peace:::siging off::: oh! and good luck to Lindsay, Sharis and all u other pple taking the April SAT tomorrow!!
