Damn, well, I'm pretty glad I finished High School. I hated that place. I'm not sure if you knew that my High School burned down before.

Two more crappy years of high school for me though.
The graduation project crap is annoying.

I remember my 9th grade year that there were rumors spreading that some gang was going to bring guns or whatever. All of people didn't show up for class lol.

I like how we lie to our parents about what is going on in schools; quite the habit of every student these days.

Schools over here are pretty uptight too, so we don't usually face such incidents.

Anyway, my arm muscles are so sore and heavy after my workout I can barely type this post right now. Gaaah >_>

Wow, reading these things about what goes on in school, I'm glad I remained a social hermit throughout high school. It's kind of shocking to me that stuff like this is so rampant; there were cliques at high school, and I saw the occasional hallway fight. My favorite one was when a small teach tried to break up a fight. One of the guys pushed her aside--unfortunately for him, an SRO officer saw him do it. I didn't see it, but I heard it when the officer pinned the kid against a wall. Apparently, from eye witnesses, he did it with one arm, too.

Exciting stuff, but I still wish it didn't have to come to that. Crazy teenagers.

Four days until school and I still can't wake up early nor sleep at night. I still need to get some copybooks to photocopy them from Shadow and I have no stationery at all; not even a pen. It seems I am well prepared this year...

Wednesdays are my happiest school days! First period is at 8 AM, followed by second period. I then have five periods free, and as a result I go home until 2:15, which is the time that English starts~

Lucky you, I have the same 7 classes every day.

Fortunately right now I have a 90 or above in every class except US History AP...which is a 65. I am screwed. ._.

Ugh. I hate Geometry.
l can't seem to get myself to pay attention for more than 30 seconds. l'm always off doodling or dozing off, then l find out l missed the steps on how to do the homework. l hope this phase goes away soon, or I'll be failing math, which has always been my best subject...

I have also developed a liking to US History. I think it's my teacher, 'cause he makes it sound so great the way he teaches us about exploration and such.
I shouldn't be worrying much. lt's only my second week.

I find my odd period days really dull and uninspiring (Algebra II Honors, Chinese II, Computer Science AP, Marching Band), probably because there never is much worth my attention, but my even days are more interesting, probably since it's more difficult (Algebra II Honors, Math Tutoring, English II Honors, Physiology). Today was an odd day, and too hot, and thus, incredibly dull.

Today was club sign-ups. How club sign-ups work is you are put into a database. Every student is. As soon as sign-ups are over, the database emails you a list of academic, atheletic, and service groups you signed up for. Well, my email came in inconclusive, meaning I did something wrong. After contacting my principle, the database doesn't come conclusive unless you are between 2 and 10 clubs. I signed up today for 13.

So I downloaded today my IGCSE Biology, Chemistry and Physics Syllabus for 2012 examinations. The good thing is that we already covered more than half of the syllabus. The bad thing is that what is remaining is the hardest.

In Biology, I will be learning Classification of Living things, Dichotomous Keys, Sexual Reproduction in Plants, Growth and Inheritance, and then an easy part of Food Chains and Energy Flow, and some environmental topics.

As for Chemistry, I have got Stoichiometry and Organic Chemistry.

In Physics, the topics are Electricity and Nuclear Physics, which should be relatively easy due to previous knowledge in Chemistry.

In terms for the other subjects, I didn't care much about printing the Syllabus, but I have got like 365 pages of English Literature, Biology, Business and ICT to photocopy.

By the way, has anyone tried buying books from Nelson Thornes?

Interestingly, geometry and algebra are my favourite divisions of maths.

If it's anything like what they do at my school (possibly even through the whole county) it's some sort of Co-op program. For the first half of the day, students take classes at the school. Afterwards, they go to the community college for college classes. And because we operate on the block schedule (four classes on "A-Days" and four other classes on "B-Days" with lunch in the middle), there are two different versions of this. One is every day, and one is every other day (where participants only have to go to school every other day).

But who knows. I could be wrong.




On another note, should I purchase the 3DS? The red one comes out tomorrow and I'm seriously considering it. The thing that I'm worried about is the set of games it has. Is Ocarina of Time worth buying (I played the original)? Are there any other games you would recomend?

Oh, I just noticed her signature. In the beginning, I thought she was telling us that she was afraid of fighting her. Now I understand, and those punishments are pretty much hard.

In my school, fighting causes you a suspension for 3 days up to a week sometimes.

Because it was a first defense, it was either 4 days suspension, academic suspension (get a zero on evey assignment for 4 days), or that.

Golf never interested me, as I view it as boring. More than that, I couldn't understand a term of what you said.

Tomorrow happens to be my first day of school. I will be a senior this year with my international examinations in June, so it is going to be a really hard year. Currently though, I am hoping to be in the same class as my friends. I really hate being in another class, as if I am a new student again.

I'm in that same situation, barely any of my friends are in my classes because they aren't taking AP or honors courses. I do see them afterschool a lot though, so its not that bad.

Same here. I have almost no friends in all of my classes (except for my three, soon to be four, music classes).

It's so weird trying to group up with people you barely know, then the experience you get out of it is crap.

I have mixed feelings towards school staring tomorrow. On one hand, I feel excited to meet my friends again and see the changes which happened to our school. However, on the other hand, knowing that this year is going to be my toughest so far is putting pressure on me. Plus, waking up early is not my favourite part of school. =/

In other unrelated news, we had a two-day vacation in a neighbouring country with my two uncles and their families. It was a fantastic stay and our hotel apartment overlooked both the sea and the swimming pool, but the road trip got me really 'car sick'. I don't think I'm physically able to withstand long hours in any sort transportation...

I don't like cars either, especially when reading, as I get a stomach ache. My worst transportation is ships, as as soon as I ride them, I lose all sense of direction.

I can't say I've ever been car sick. Though I have felt queasy before while riding a car, but that was because I ate a lot and we were heading down the bumpy, mountain road.

Same deal with me. If I eat alot and go on a very bumpy road, than I get car sick. I hate getting car sick -_-.

No the woodwinds have this really insane feature, and the brass has some insane marching. So we're thinking if one group could do both, they're the superior section

Currently posting from the IT lab in school.

So today happens to be the first day of school, and so far it is all well. I turned out to be in the same class as my friends afterall. The bad thing is that I will be taught by some new teachers, which I really hate. Plus our timetable sucks a lot. Except for Tuesday and Thursday, everyday is so boring. Quite a disappointment actually.

By the way guys, did anyone watch the latest episode of America's Got Talent? If yes, then what do you think of the finalists and who do you support? I'm personally rooting for Poplyfe the most, since they can become the Jackson 5 of today. However, Team iLuminate comes in very close second position.

Today I had to go buy a camera for a photography course I am taking. I already have a digital one, but for the class I need one that takes pictures and records it on film. Since in Berlin just about every store is closed on Sundays, I had to go to a flea market that was about an hour away by bus and train. It was pretty cool, since they had furniture, clothes, dishes, electronics, and of course the camera I needed. I bought one made in the USSR in the 50's. Not bad! Also, the amount of original Game Boys and Super Nintendos was astonishing.

I'm actually rooting for Landau Eugene Murphy Jr. Really though, I don't care who wins. Poplyfe is pretty cool, but I don't exactly love their genre. And then the Silhouettes...meh, I'd rather see something else.

- Today, we started fitness testing, and i ran a 8 minute, 28 sec. Mile. Is this good for a 13 year old?

- I did a beastly defense in our soccer scrimage today. It was just our team split in half and stuff, but i defended on the best player on their team, took the ball down, and scored.

- Also, I FOUND MY WRESTLING SHOES!!!

Not bad, but everyone on my basketball in freshman year was 14-15 and we did miles in 6-7 minutes. That's what you should shoot for.

It sucks how we are having an English Language test and it is still the first week of school, but I guess I can't help it. Topics so far are proving to be harder than last year's, even though we barely started. I have started to get annoyed from this situation and worried too.

Oh God, did Poplyfe plain suck last night. The background vocals were terrible and Kehlani missed quite a number of notes, even singing off-key in some parts. I think taking on Queen classics proved to be too big for them, and I have to say I'm really disappointed at their performance. =/

As for the winner, I'd REALLY like it to be iLuminate - no act screams "Vegas!" more than them (and their latest show was a flashy, electrifying extravaganza). Landau is a good singer but he's really not that great, and even though I don't listen to Frank Sinatra, I heard Landau is nowhere near as good or dynamic. The concept behind Silhouettes is original and their ideas are inspirational, but their repeated patriotic themes kinda made them look manipulative in my opinion. I'm so glad they didn't do something related to 9/11 in the finals, but I still personally believe that I can't sit through an hour of their show.

After my DCI tryouts, I went to the beach with my friends Tricia and Neal, and we had an arguement over if I'm a secret Asian. Blonde hair and blue eyes are not Asian qualities, but math skills, empathic impulses, articulation on words, and and joining every club I can apparently are.

So I've decided to enroll in boxing this year instead of trying out for soccer. I wanted to try something new, and I could use a break from soccer for once.
Classes start in two weeks and I can't wait.

Drawing is something that comes and goes to me. If the atmosphere around me is annoying, I will never be able to draw even if I want to. Plus, I left traditional drawing for a while as I tried the digital way.

I'm thinking of starting a new club with some of my friends. Well, not exactly a club, it's more of a group project.

Musical Writing Club. My plan is to make a musical parodying famous (and not so famous) Broadway showtunes in a musical about the pit orchestra of a musical. The orchestra will be playing and singing

I need to find an article about 9/11 for my English Language class, yet I can't find any. If anyone has got a link to an interesting article, then please send it to me today.

I still have a long Maths homework to do...

What kind of article you need? One from the actual event 10 years ago, or a recent one from the past year?

It doesn't matter if it is recent, as long as the topic itself is regarding 9/11.

Strangely, this statement also seems to apply for me. Before starting grade 8, I was really interested in learning how to draw. Beyond grade 8 through grade 10, art wasn't exactly something on my priority list, even though I always wanted to learn it for assignments and posters. Now, however, I find myself wanting to become good at digital art, especially after seeing PRS' most recent works.

Since I have the same assignment, I would actually prefer a recent article since it would be less awkward.

Pacquiao is one of my favorite boxers, but my top one is Oscar De la Hoya. Sadly, he retired a couple of years ago.

I dislike Mayweather 'cause he has a big mouth. I've lost even more respect for him now that he raged at the HBO reported. I loved the reporter's response though. "If i was 50 years younger, l'd kick your ass!"

I know a few Phillipino people.

I guess l'll play the race card too and say l like De la Hoya because l'm Mexican. :0
My dad even knew him growing up actually. Both went to the same school, and they lived 3 houses apart.

He's partly what inspires me to start boxing. He went from living in a ghetto neighborhood to being such a great boxer. I doubt l'll ever be as great as him or the other boxers, though.

Ugh. The school is piling us with work every single day it's becoming pretty annoying. Our Biology teacher just talks and then gives us huge homeworks that essentially involve you covering a whole new chapter by yourself. The Religious Studies teacher expects us to do long, research questions which we normally never do. We're also required to do an English Language test every week, a Literature test next week and English/Arabic journals on a weekly basis.

I'm sorry if I sound whiny, but it's still the second week of school for us and we're already getting exhausted. When will teachers ever realize that students are not machines?

We got our first English Literature essays today and the highest mark in our class didn't exceed 64%. The essay was about comparing two love sonnets in a very complex way, which proved to be really hard. It is frustrating to see such a result when this year is my IGCSE year. I guess I need to improve...

Okay then, stop deleting my posts and maybe I'd consider bothering stirring up conversation in a thread that's appeared rather stagnant for awhile now.

EDIT: In case anyone actually, you know, reads this: Hi I'm back in college now and don't (read: shouldn't) bother with the internet anyway. Don't mind me.
