Just in time


Yes, getting the blog in on time. Would've been up sooner, but Carie wants to have life??

So for the past two days (hence why I'm missing a Thursday and a Wednesday), we've had ice days. Not snow, ice. Well...Thursday was pretty clear, not gonna lie.

Anywho, today.

The half day.

Without finals.

Hey everyone, let's go to all 8 classes for 20 minutes each.

B1-Pointless
B2-Pointless
B3-Pointless
B4-Pointless
G1-Pointless
G2-Pointless
G3-Pointless
G4-Pointless

Sorry that it has to end on this note, gaiz.

See you next semester.

<3 Peace

Scapegoat to rock the boat, yea, we need someone expendable


Title is from a song called "Locking Up the Sun" by Poets of the Fall. Check it out. Also check out "Roses" by them. Great band. Haven't found a song I don't like yet.

Woke up this morning, joyous of lack of ice on car. It was beautiful.
Japanese was Jeopardy! styled. Last Japanese class ever, and it was Jeopardy! Ouch...
Followed by that, was my last High School Match Class ever. Even though all we did was review, it was awesome. Going to miss the people I hung out with in there.
Lunch was alright. Our school needs to get better food. Stupid funding and lack of care for the American Schoolchildren.
Earth/Space was straight up boring. Nothing in that class.
In Creative Writing, we spent the entire time writing a short story. Our final is going to be analyzing that story. I took the "Red Horse" virus from NIN: Year Zero and wrote about a girl as she experienced the symptoms until her eventual death.

After school, went to Anthony's for a bit. Then went home. Fell asleep. Woke up at 8:42.

Woo.

<3 Peace

88? 94??? WHAT THE HECK??


I almost spaced typing this which would've caused me to go back to being behind quite epically.

Woke up this morning, on my AP Psych book. First time I've fell asleep doing homework, I tell ya. Weird experience. Followed Sammy most of the way to school too.
W131 was cool. IO got to do her presentation and her group was pretty awesome, especially the clips. They had a good topic, and they used that to their advantage.
In English, we had a sub, so essentially nothing was done. Hilarious. I did find my schedule for next semester though, and have three classes with IO, with two of them being third period, therefore having lunch with her. No math too. Next semester will rock.
AP Psychology was boring. After turning in work, we had the period to ourselves. It was boring, simply boring.
German was awesome. I really wished I had taken it my Freshmen year and continued from there. Apparently, I'm a natural with it, and I simply love the class and the language.

On Friday, I found out that there are only 88 days this semester. So to have the 180 day necessary, we'd have to have 92 next semester. However, when someone was counting next semester, they said 94 days. So if this becomes a 182 day blog, so be it. But I'm not changing the name. Let it be a misnomer.

Postscript: Saw Cameron after German. Got the camera from Carie and took this shot, Sammy came out of nowhere.

I CAN HAS TITLE???


Woo! I get to write in present time again. Sa-weet.

Woke up slightly late. Took forever to scrape my windshield. Thanks to mom for scraping my normal windows for me while I was still upstairs.

Japanese was fun. Played a bunch of random card games after work was completed. Benefits working with Billy at translation. Sensei began teaching me how to play Euchre, but the bell rang early, we forgot about SSR.
Algebra 2 went swimingly. It was another work 'til you drop things, but the conversations are always fun in there.
Lunch was boring. There were three of us at the table. Quite empty today.
Earth/Space sucked. I hate rocks. Minerals. They can all go melt in a volcano, and become a different kind of rock.
Creative Writing, we read from our notebooks. I got to read my take of dissection, and the reactions from people was awesome.

After school, I cleaned up backstage while IO began painting the last cutout. We kept going to the German Club Party to get food to bring back. We eventually finished and decided to bring them to Frau, who loved them.

After this, IO and I went to go see the remake of "The Day the Earth Stood Still" which was awesome. Apparently Keanu does say "Klaatu barada nikto" but they played it backwards and it was at the beginning when Klaatu gets shot.

Then we went to Mozzis with some people, and as we were leaving saw another person we knew, Allison.

Then I went home.

Yay

It's been awhile since I've gotten to write a full one. That was fun.
<3 Peace

Postscript: You can see my awesome cutout work as IO is painting it. She is excited as well.

Thursday. You'd think it would be more burned into my memory, being yesterday, but you would be wrong.

Actually, I do remember it.

Filler space=win

W131. Presentation. We went after the awesome one. Not fair. We did good for what we set out to do, so meh.
English, watched the PBS Scarlet Letter. Horrible. And we get to continue next time.
AP Psych, some talked out finishing touches to our project. All actual work to be done at home.
German? AWESOME. I made a Christmas card that had a pair of bloodshot eyes that stated "St. Niklaus ist Wachen Du (St. Nicholas is watching you).

After school, I helped (and by help, I mean do all) IO cut out her picture things for Frau Clements. A few cuts, a few splinters, a bruised hand, but it got done.

<3 Peace

Postscript: I had the camera on zoom by accident. Frankie ws closer than the camera thought.

Wednesday.

Still not feeling that well.

Gold day though.

Japanese. Did work, then played cards.
Algebra 2, strictly work period. Kind of.
Lunch was hilarious for some reason.
Earth/Space sucked. I hate rock work. it's so boring.
Creative Writing, finished Freedom Writers. At the beginning, Mrs. heck said that the she didn't like the white kid's role because he seemed holier-than-thou compared to the non-white students. And she's wrong. The kid had his own problems. He was the slacker of his group. He was afraid, and he was shy. There was no "I'm better than you." Our test was a takehome test though, so that's good.

After school, we had an ITS/DC meeting. That took forever. I then met up with my W131 group and we went to the public library for awhile, even though I ended up getting my portion done at home.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Mr. Jacobs talking during the ITS/DC meeting.

12/09


Half day. If it was longer, I would've risked the exempt a final, because I was sick.

W131, first group's presentation. Our group freaking out, promising to meet up the next day after school to work.
English, finished up stupid project.
Ap Psych, still working on group project. I got assigned the boring, drawn out job.
German was cool German is always cool.

This ranks as one of my all time least favorite half days. I was sick, so I went home. That;s it. Didn't hang out with anyone. Just stayed home.

<3 Peace

Postscript: IO wanted to be in the pic, but at the last moment, I took a pic of the guy on the ladder. IO still exists though.

Monday.

Japanese was alright. Kind of boring.
Algebra 2, we took a quiz and then started on the review stuff. Yay for having to do the review even though I'm exempting the final.
Earth/Space. Surprise, we're doing rocks this semester. Crap.
Creative Writing, started watching Freedom Writers. It was a good movie.

Nothing really extra.

<3 Peace

Postscript: I got Ellen to take a picture. I had to be in it=downfall. Worth her smile though.

12/05


Let's see...the fifth...a blue day.
So I can make the assumption and be correct because my blue day classes had been repetitive.

W131, we worked on our projects, preparing to be shown to the class.
English, we worked on our class project.
AP Psyche, we worked on our group project.
German, we talked about conjugating Möchten, the "would like" verb.

After school, saw Scrooge has left the building. 'Twas good.

That's about it. Fear the tiny post.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Light pole that we park by. Isn't it awesome?

12/04


Day started out late. Boring, rather.

Got to school. Did some homework, finished it up.

Japanese was alright. We spent the time making New Years cards. Year of the cow, moo! Learned a new card game too.
Algebra 2 was cool as well. Especially since I get to do the 3 day review stuff, but I'm exempting the final.
Lunch was cool.
Earth/Space was boring. The first half hour went by fast, the second slow, the last in between. Notes.
Creative Writing was alright. We went over beginnings and ends.

CSz after school. Was alright. A few people didn't show and we still had a lot of people, which isn't right. If everyone showed though, we would've split into varsity and jv.

Hung out with Sammy, Anthony, Ryan, Tucker, and Frankie afterwards. One by one we dwindled away.

<3 Peace

Day was slow...I had woken up super early.

W131 was suck, but my group got to go down to the library to work on our presentation.
English was alright. I had all my work done, and had nothing to do though.
AP Psych was alright. We're starting this new project. In our group, we have 2 girls that want to take over, two girls that want their ideas, but get shut down, and me. After a bit of arguing, they finally started asking our opinions, mainly mine, when deciding something.
Lunch was cool. Or cold, rather. Jamie,Jacob, and I sat outside. Sat, stood, whatever.
German was deadbeat. I didn't feel better and spent about 20 minutes in the nurses office laying on one of the beds.

Went home, work called. Canceled for me. Jerks. Went to Anthony's. We went to Family, Fun, and Fitness, and now I belong to it...

<3 Peace

Postscript: Ceiling. Woo...

12/02


My car was frozen. 3 out of 4 of the doors were as well. I opened that door, turned on the car, and took about 15 minutes scraping frost off of the windshields and windows, plus opening the other doors.

Japanese was alright. We're starting on the obligatory essay of the semester, and I pretty much know everything I'm going to write. I'll turn it in early. I also finished our normal homework in there early.
Algebra 2 was alright. Learning imaginary numbers is fun. Everytime. It's a bitter wasteland of awesomeness.
Lunch was alright.
Earth/Space was boring. Rocks suck. Note it.
Creative Writing was alright. We're starting on plot. I wonder if one day, we'll be creative.

After school, I went home. It's so sad...

<3 Peace
~Zaq

Postscript: People don't want to take pics. At least Ellen smiled at the last second.

12/01


First day of December, it was sorta snowy outside. I was proud of nature.

W131 was t3h suck. No surprises.
English was hilarious. Bunnel is supposedly not Bunnel, but Donna Trump, Donald Trump's twin sister, for this project we're doing. It's pretty awesome.
AP Psycholy was boring. Leswing was absent, so we had a study period. Study periods are completely unproductive.
German was cool.

After school, hung out at Tucker's for a bit.

<3 Peace
~Zaq

Postscript: I stopped Sensei Bringerud in the hallway for the pic. Apparently the kid that walked by wanted to be in it as well.

11/26


Half day and still managed to finish Grave of the Fireflies (Hotaru no Haka) in Japanese.
That's skill.

Algebra 2 would've been t3h suck.

Earth/Space was alright.

Creative Writing was sorta fun. We read over someone else's 2nd POV.

After school, hung out with some people at PK's.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Emo boy Anthony

Tuesday...

Blue Day...

Naturally it had to suck, right?

W131 definitely did. I can almost guarantee that.
English would've been alright.
AP Psych was fun. I remember it. We made a bunch of stuff and competed.
Lunch was alright.
German would've been ok.

Don't think I did anything after school except pick up tons of applications with Anthony.

<3 Peace

Postscript: IO had to be in the pic without a sad face. Frankie joined her. Scarf...
