::Yay!!! AP testing is OVER!!!! {kicks history Baron's book aside}::
yes! the TORTURE is through! Now all i gotta worry about is the june SAT! and finals...and ima take the ACT the beginning of next year...o well...at least i got a few tests outa the way.
Yesterday was the history test. Actually...i am happy!! I think i might have done good! I can't get into details on the test....its highly secretive..but the DBQ and the other 2 questions i was like...YES!!! I knew about them and i think my essays were great! I was cheesin like crazy doing those essays cause i was sooo relieved!! lol...so if i get lower than a 3..its cause of the multiple choice. I mean..i dont think i did too bad on that part...but i skipped and guessed on more than i should have. So...yeah...hopefully that wont kill me....multiple choice alwayz kicks my @ss....darnit. :) But after the test i went to Friendly's and got some ice cream to celebrate. yup yup..good stuff. There, i saw choi!! Well, not choi mei, but her sister; with some guy. Im guessing he was her fiance...aww! lol. i waved. Then yesterday, the Matrix came on FOX, so i watched that...a bit confusing...but good. Now i can go w/ all u guyz to see Matrix Reloaded!! whoop-whoop! lol.


Today, i went to Towson University on a campus tour. It was nice...thats my first choice skool as of now. At first, i really wanted to get outa here....but really...i just wanna get out of this ghetto and broke @ss county...the state is fine. Plus i like MD...theres ocean and mountains, farmland and cities. And theres soo much! DC is rite there..and i luv DC...and Baltimore...its great too...then its in the eastern seaboard...so its connected to all those other cities...Boston, New York City, Philidelphia...lotsa places. So...i changed my mind...maybe i wanna stay in MD. Plus Towson was cool. It has all sorts of majors id like to try....my top is Mass Communications- Journalism...but im also looking at Electronic Media (w/ a focus in film or t.v.), Business Administration (marketing focus) and Advertising. yup. And Towson has all that. The campus is nice...i like how it looks, and it looks nice and residential and cozy...yet if you drive for like 10 minutes or so, you can be rite in the Inner Harbor (Baltimore) which is sooo cool. And i can get home easily...the drive is about an hour and fifteen minutes from mah house...which is close enough to come home but far enough away. And i dont even need a car to get home! Just take the bus (theres a stop on Towson campus) to the train station in Baltimore. Then take the train and get off in DC near a metro station. Then take the metro back up to my place...theres a metro stop just like a 5 minute drive from my house. yup yup. And there seems like enough stuff to do on campus. Plus, i hear Towson's a party school...which is cool w/ me....but not a huge frat scene...only 7% of the pple are into greek things...which is nice cause im not a drinker, nor do i care for the frat/sorority drama. NEVER will u see mee in a sorority...i would go CRAZY if i had to be w/ those girls for that long....AAAHHH! lol. 2 much drama...nuh-uh...no sir...not for me. :) But yeah...towsons cool. now all i need is to get accepted and a scholarship...or two...


Tomorrow im goin 2 VA. My mom was like...for mothers day..she wants us all outa the house....so thast what we're gonna do!! lol. we're goin to grandmas!! whoo-hoo! yeah! they got a new pool table!!! peace!!!

Hey guyz!! Yay!! no skool tomorrow!!! well...cause ima be taking the AP US history test...at 8am..but im not going 2 skool! yay!! lol. ok...now that ive got all the problems w/ my blog outa the way (long story...dont ask) i can finally post a new entry!! So here i go! First off, tuesday was the AP English Lang. test. It wasn't to bad..i think i got a 2 or 3 on it...hopefully a 3. I can't really go into big details cause the test is under wraps...but all i will say is the last multiple choice and the last essay passages blew me!!! i was like....wtf? but the rest wasn't bad...i think my first essay was actually really good! :)

But...yeah. Skool itself is getting pretty routine....things seem to be winding down a bit...or maybe im just getting lazier...hmmm...o well. Today i stayed after skool for Adkin's for the last time...the AP US History test is tomorrow...i hope i do ok...but i really just wanna get it over w/...then all ill have to worry about is the SAT. Oh yeah...our outlines for our 4th quarter history projects were due today. For the 3rd time, me, steph, craig and choi are doing a video. This topic: the Watergate Scandal. At first i was really, really against this topic, cause its such a huge and important issue. When we told the teacher the topic we chose...he was just like..."ok...why?? but....u can do that." and im just like...crap..that means its gonna be hard. And gathering info was bad too. Theres lotsa info on Watergate, but i dont care much for politics, and thats what its all about....politics and the media. So...yeah...we did our outline last night...i kno i kno...we waited til the last minute...but things have been very busy lately. Though, while we were working, there was a thunderstorm going on and all these severe storm warnings..and we were typing the outline. The whole time, we were saving our stuff to floppy disks every 2 minutes and praying that the power wouldn't go out....we woulda been beyond screwed if it did... But anyways, we finished our outline at 10:15pm...we had started at about 5:30 or 6pm. Watergate is a HUGE issue....our outline was 7 pages long...and 23 scenes!!! My longest video before was about 14 scenes....so this one is gonna be super long. Well...we wont have to worry about whether or not we got our necessary 15 minutes of tape....ours will be a freaking feature film!!!! We'll turn in a 2 hour long tape...lol. But the outline changed my view on Watergate...i think we could actually make a real good movie on it. I even want to start on some of the scripts cause i have such great ideas! (shocking...) so...yeah...thats been about it. well, ima do some stuff now....ttyl & peace out.

OH!!! guess what guyz....i currently have a 102% average in physics!!!!!!!!!! I am TIED w/ IYEN!!!! We have the SAME grade rite now!!! im like...HAHA!! YES!! lol...sorry...im fellin smart rita bout now...

hey guyz!! mayn...was yesterday FUN!! lol. saturday sucked...but sunday was great! lol. I did my psychology report in the morning...not bad. I did Erik Erikson..he was actually pretty cool. And i find psychology interesting...as long as u dont get into the actual science of the brain or anything. I just like seeing how people think. NEwayz..then i went to the mall....some great sales! I got a new light blue windbreaker from Old Navy, then 2 cute shirts and a pair of pants from JCPennys. All that for $50! wow! When ya do the math, thats a bargain! Then, me and stephanie met up w/ Constance and Meery at the movies and watched X-Men 2. It was GREAT! Only thing was, it was opening weekend so the theater was packed...we ended up sitting in the second row...but i had 25 minutes of previews to get my eyes in focus, so it wasn't that bad. lol. The movie itself was great...4 out of 5 stars. Though the plot and all the characters had me confused a bit, i got it straight. Plus, there were so many real tight special effects and action sequences..it was cool. and so many hot guys in it! wow! lol. but...yeah...i want the dvd when it comes out..real cool. O! it was SOOO funny! in the theater, it was stephanie, meery, me, constance, constance's lil brother, then at the end of our row there were like 5 guys or somethin. I think they were younger than us...like probably middle schoolers...but they were sooo annoying!! ALL through the movie they were makin loud comments, like (sarcasrically) "That was SEXUAL!!", or "No, Jean!! Don't do it!" and all this retarded stuff. Me and Constance would be all like..."shut up...." we never said it directly to them but we were loud enough for them to hear us. But it was SOO FUNNY! cause, there was this pair of adults in front of us...probably husband and wife...and they sat in the row in front of us. Well, towards the end of the movie, the kids made some other stupid comment, and the man- he didn;t even kno the kids- turned to them and was like "SHUT UP! I better not hear another God damn thing out of any of you!" The boys all were quiet and looking all shocked! it was so funny! Me and Constance looked at eachother and was like....daym!!!! We were laughin so hard but trying to be quiet about it so he wouldnt say somethin to us...lol. it was great!
But yeah...then we went to Uno's since the food court at the mall had just closed. Good food...we were all talking and coloring on kids menu's that Constance took from the front. yup yup...we gonna havta do it again. :)


And today was skool...nothin special...i was tired most of the day. Tomorrow im not goin to school...gotta take the AP english language exam in the morning...yuck. Im a little nervous...i wanna 3 but i dunno if i can get it..ima try tho. But im not too nervous...really, i just wanna get these tests over with....
