ITS FINALLY FRIDAY!! all week has been so sloow....im so happy to be out...

today wasn't too bad tho....mayn...i did find out i failed that calculus test....40%....uh-oh.

This should be a nice weekend tho....going to the mall/movies w/ some friends tomorrow.....sunday i got a scheduled pool practice from 2-4pm..

i got some homework, but this weekend is light compared w/ last weekend: all the college applications....my chapter 2 for RP....

Speaking of RP...Avondet left today. he was my RP teacher... The school system was screwing him over. He was one of those retire/rehire teachers, but they quit his retirement pay and all this other stuff for no reason, and now he needs more money cause he can't live off of what he has now, so he has to quit teaching. we had a lil party in RP today. im mad he had to go...he was a nice and good teacher. i tell ya....the school system is seriously f***ed up. They fire all the good teachers, they have no one to replace them; and yet the sucky teachers who CANT teach are still here. I just got one thing to say: im glad this is my last year of high school...its not gonna be able to last much longer...it is so horrible. American Education sux...we got no books, no money, a crappy run-down building that is literally falling apart...teachers that can't teach...crackheads hangin out in the halls...its just so messed up....i have seen so much in these 4 years in high school...its just crazy...

o well...its the weekend...school is NOT in session! :)

mayn...i cant wait til this weekend. i want a break...im sick of school.

We had a super hard calculus test yesterday..mayn...i dont think i got ANY problems right. i hate math...i KNOW that at least half the stuff i'm learning now i will never use in my life again after school. its so pointless...

Today was pretty blah... Had a quiz in calculus....a QUIZ!! We JUST had a test YESTERDAY!! i didn't finish so ima go in there early tomorrow to finish it...i actually think i was doing the problem right.

Yesterday was a GLOBE club/medical club meeting. im in globe. we had food, talked about envirathon...drew names for our secret santa thing for our Christmas party. fun meeting.

nothin else happened today or yesterday...classes are so-so...AP Psychology is still funny...i really like that class. But then productions or whatever that tech. class is is pissin me off...some pple in there really get on my nerves. i have just about no friends in there so its boring...and then theres a few pple who get on my nerves everyday....im like...shut up and go screw yourself or somethin..get outa my face!!! i HATE juniors!! well...certain juniors...some of u guyz are cool....

mayn....they were makin me sad today in math. Someone said somethin about a dog, and that made me sad. i forgot to blog about it, but my dog died last week on wednesday (the 5th). im still sad about it. and sometimes, i say stuff that im thinking that i dont mean to say...well...when someone said somethin about a dog, i said w/out thinking "my dog died last week." and like the whole calculus class turned and was like..."really??" and Constance was like..."you didn't tell me she died!!" i 4got...i told a few pple, but i 4got who. then everyone was all like..awww... i felt bad...i miss my doggie!! i sorta want another. i mean...i dont wanna just replace Penny...but i miss having her always there. it feels weird. and sometimes im still looking for her. like ill get home from school and open the door expecting her to be waiting, but she's not. Or when i wake up ill open the door to my room to let her in and shes not there. and sometimes when i leave for school i 4get she's gone and am like "bye Penny." i really miss her.....

hey all....wowww!! Its tuesday! where did monday go?? o well...mondays suck anywayz...

Today was a pretty decent day of school. In RP we got in trouble, cause we dont do anything. Its basically a free period where u can work on ur RP project (something i SHOULD really start doing..). well...apparently another RP teacher makes her class do lotsa busy work, but the other teachers dont and she got mad. no biggie. my teachers cool, and was like no more card playing and cd players and stuff, but he wont give us busy work or anything so...yeah...its all good. Though...his last day is friday i think. Hes quitting. They stopped paying him, so he has to get another job. that sux...hes actually one of the better teachers in school. Someone needs to fire this new superintendent. They all are the same: they make promises they can't keep, they are all broke, nothing gets fixed, and they make the few good things we have get worse. why do we even need them??

2nd period AP Psych. is goin great. i like that class...learn some real helpful stuff in there. Though, half the time we dont learn psychology...its more like "How-to-get-through-high-school"/"College 101." u learn all the tricks about how to survive high school (all the stuff i kno tho...i am a senior afterall...duh..lol). But the college stuff and tips is pretty darn helpful....AAHH!! I cant believe i will be in COLLEGE next year!! so exciting.....

3/4th period in English was pretty pointless today. We thought we had to sign our "senior contracts" today...whatever that is...so we went to the library. But the lady there sent us back saying our day isn't til tomorrow. So we took our good old time walking slowly back to class. Then the teacher told us to read this chapter in out textbook for the entire class period. Now...i didnt mind the reading...it was a pretty helpful chapter actually....but i did have a problem w/ the reason why we had to read all period to ourselves: the teacher, who also happens to be the school newspaper supervisor, was working w/ like 2 students on finishing the newspaper. He said that they were already past deadline, but is that OUR fault?? This is an AP English Literature class...NOT newspaper. now i know we have to read from books every now and then...but its the principle of the thing....i though that was pretty wrong.

Lunch was okay....lets see....6th period productions class was....i dunno. Its not a bad clas...but i dont care for it...it just goes by way to slow. And alot of the pple there get on my nerves!! Almost the whole class is juniors...they can be so annoying!! Its like the whole freakin football team clique...they can act so rude and immature. its sorta irritating, but most of the time im in my i-dont-care mood, so i just do whatever i have to to get my A, then chill the rest of the period.

7th and 8th calculus we did classwork to help us review for our test tomorrow. Oh....my....God....those problems were HARD!! I got like....1 right!!! I am SSOOO gonna fail this test!!! AAAAHH! ive studied some already...for almost an hour straight. ima study more a lil later, but i need a break right now or ima go crazy. i hate math... i HOPE i do okay on the test....a C is all i ask for....

Guess what!!! I turned in all my college applications yesterday!!! Yayz!! I had finished all the essays/applications/etc. over the weekend. Before 1st period i got a senior information sheet from guidance and filled that out during class. Then, i ran around gathering my recommendations from teachers before lunch. After school, me and Lindsay went to get our recommendations from our AP English Lang. teacher from last year. She took forever getting to her room...it was cool tho cause i dont see Lindsay much in skool anymore, so i talked to her and joked w/ some of the drama club pple who were meeting in her room. Then, she gave us our recommendations...omg...all the ones i got are so great!! They make me sound so nice!! lol. i almost want to ask all my teachers for recommendations, just to see what they all really think of me. haha. But yeah...then we ran down to guidance and turned in all our stuff.

I am done w/ college!! Just gotta do the FAFSA form when that time comes, and look for scholarships. And wait....thats the hard part...lol.

I only applied to 3 schools, all in Maryland. University of MD- College Park, Frostburg State University and Towson University.
Pple were scaring me saying i should apply to more cause i might not get into them...but im like...why?? tell u the truth, i will be very shocked if i dont get into Frostburg or Towson. College Park...ehh..thats iffy. They have sorta high standards...but not too high. its just that, from what i have seen, they pick their students weird, so i wouldnt be surprised if i didnt get in...but the other two....im hoping im hoping....lol

hey all!! geez..i havent blogged since wednesday???? geez...

catch up time: thursday was theme day...nuthin real big. question: how do u dress up like the Temptations?? a few pple wore like...suits and stuff....nothin real crazy tho..

friday was school spirit day. i went to the pep rally after swim practice in the morning. school finished off so-so for the week....nothin real great, but it didnt suck.

Saturday was Homecoming. I had a doctors appointment in the morning...had to get my physical...boo...not bad. one shot...no biggie....shots dont bother me.

Then i went to the homecoming football game. we lost horribly...i knew we'd lose...our football team is i think the worst in the county rite now...nothin new. But come to a basketball game and we'll whip yo' @ss!! lol. We lost 32-0....it was funny..we all were cheerin like..."Just make ONE touchdown!!! Just ONE!!!" lol. but it was still cool. hung out w/ Antionette and Lejato...we saw ashley, sherrelle and angela there and talked a lil bit. it was cool but very cold!! i think i got sick from stayin out there that long! our band was real good tho. they put on a good halftime show, and at the end, they put on a lil show outside the bandroom door. that was cool 2.

NEwayz...i didnt go to the homecoming dance. i feel a lil bad, cause ive never been to homecoming, and that was my last chance. and i like dances...its just...i dunno. i could have bout a last-minute ticket at the game...but i was lazy and didnt get up to get it. ive been sorta out of it lately.....in one of those i-dont-care-screw-the-world-let-me-hurry-up-and-graduate moods. hmm...not good. i dont even kno why. i mean...sure this isnt the best year...but it doesnt suck...im just...i dunno...i dont care anymore.

I just finished RP project chapter 2...that shiz took me ALL DAY!! and i stll got college applications to finish...must get it for tomorrow...AHHH!
