No seriously, the school is on a hill

Drove my car for the first time since I got it this morning. I was happy. For the whole, what, 2 minutes it takes to get to school from home?
Anywho, talked to Jake for the first time in forever. He agrees with me that these are getting less detailed, but thinks it's because I don't remember my day.
He said I should have just a picture and a caption for it.
I'm good with the blog.

That being said, I'm seriously seriously asking you for any additions you would like to see added to this. I want to make it more interesting for you and for me.

Anywho, Japanese was fun. We kept making fun of Kenshin and I ended up getting two more people into the Roy-Communist Coalition. Hopefully we'll be in the dodgeball tourney.
Math was great. I don't know why, but it was. The work is easy yet still tests your brains, and Mr. Fortuna is an awesome teacher. Apparently a great person too, but I didn't get to help out on Ryan's house this summer or now, so I'm not in the circle.
Lunch was fun. Card games were less intense. Ellen joined the Roy-Communist Coalition. Matt owed me a pickle. The cough drop fixed everything.

Earth/Space was boring. The only thing decent coming out of it was getting to talk to Rachel Irvine. I like meeting new people, and right now, she, Madi, and Allsion are the closest to that.

Creative Writing, they talked about senior stuff with the conselours again. So, waste of time, no more classes until Tuesday.
Labor day weekend.

No rehearsal, instead went to actual job. Still looking for different job. Arby's is messed up. Oh well.

Broke the apartment key. Need to get a new one. Until then, I have to bug the ladies downstairs to let me in.

Nothing else.
But that's because you haven't suggested anything yet.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Took early this morning so I wouldn't have to carry my camera around. Jake and Brandon. It's all tilted and such.

Roger is watching intently in the background

I tell you now, email me at haisocass@comcast.net for anything you'd like to see added to the blog. I'm starting to grow weary of telling about my day, and as you've noticed, the detail in it is fading.
Keep me interested, we're not even done with the first nine weeks.

Started off today waking up a half hour late, due to exhaustion. Don't know why. I ended up being tired most of the day.
Got to school, talked to random people, didn't do much else.
W131 first. Instead of a class, the counselors came in and we discussed stuff that I already new from either my own applications or hearing them in 21st century scholars meetings.
Eventually, it ended, and I went to English. I think the tiredness makes the day slower for me. English was just sorta boring. I don't remember much, think I did good on a simple test, and left for psychology.
Psychology was great. For the first hour, we took the test over chapter one and the prologue. I think I did fairly well, and I'll find out when the time comes.
Sat outside for lunch today. Nothing really interesting happened.
German was just all around fun. Even the test. The alphabet is too similar and it's so simple figuring out which is which. Also learned more numbers (that I've apparently memorized), and got on with it.
Also, there was a homeroom thrown somewhere between Psych and German. It was pointless. Even more pointless than I first believed.

First rehearsal was today. My cast and I found out that they're missing four pages. So I gotta find Jacobs tomorrow to get new copies.
I like my cast. A few people are a little nervous, plus the editors sucked on some of the dialogue, but they get the gist of it, and I'm confident in their abilities. I hope it goes well. Can't wait to see the others as well.

I got my car back. 'Nuff said.

<3 Peace

Postscript: I didn't feel like taking a picture (even though I had my camera), so I took one of the ones Carie took when she walked in near the end of rehearsal. When we were on one of the four pages we were missing, I had to share my script. The pic was taken near the end when Madi (far left), who plays Christine, and Allison (Far right), who plays Anonymous, ( I was filling in as doctor) wrap up the play. Gotta love it.

Meet My Teachers

Hey, don't forget to read the one titled "8/26/08". I wrote it today, and it tells you why.


So anxiousness wasn't up yet. Not only did I have to wait until 3:15 to discuss anything with any cast members, but I had Comedy Sportz Auditions too. But all's fair.

Japanese was passive for me. I was still wore out from casting, so the class was apathetic.
Fortuna's class woke me up a bit, like no other. Dude is no energetic, you've got to keep up. Graded our tests from last time. 46/50. I liked it, don't feel like retaking.
Lunch was cool. We had another intense battle of B.S. It was so intense, that it took a couple of minutes for people to realize that Ellen had won.
Earth/Space made me apathetic and tired again. Yeesh...
Creative Writing was fun, but it was still blah.
My book is getting interesting, but it's almost over. Gotta get the sequel.

Comedy Sportz went awesome. I loved it, and casting took all of five minutes. Beautiful

Went home, ate steak, went back to school for meet the parents night. It was cool. A few were pointless, but the teachers that could keep it interesting definently did.
Mom got a cookie.
And IO, not only did I get a sticker from Clements, it's one of the coveted shiny smiley face ones.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Picture taken during auditions for Csz. That's Ed. Hi, Ref Ed!

8/26/08

Sorry that I'm late on this one, but I crashed like no other after everything was finished.

Alright, so all day (8/26) was one big block of anxious that just increased as the day went on. In W131, I was pretty distracted with all the work we were doing, as excited about the upcoming assignment. I've always wanted to read about the Stanford Prison Experiment.
English was alright. It want by faster. I don't think I will really be that into it until we get to the Crucible or the Gothic Horror section.
Psychology was amazing as usual. Actually, it was just decent. However, Mr. Leswing just has that charisma to hold my attention, which is awesome.
Lunch with the Japanese students seemed pointless to me. In retrospect, I probably should've just went outside with my friends. But hey, past is past.
Last but not least is German. It was awesome, but I felt so anxious during the class and kept glancing at the clock. It seemed pretty much review-ish anyway.

And finally, One Acts Auditions.

So about halfway through, Taylor, Tucker, and I all had to use the restroom. Yet, we waited and watched. And it was worth it. We've got some nice talent coming in and the old talent as always. Casting was stressful as no other, but we got through it, and I love my cast. I just hope I stay in that mindset for awhile, because we're now stuck with each other.

<3 Peace

Postscript: The lovely Carie McMichael took this picture. Mr. Jacobs is intently watching the auditions, Ashton (non-director) is reading papers. Hannah Irvine is laughing. Michael Tucker is writing, as am I. And Taylor is watching. I made all directors wear hats. Tucker's is off because he couldn't see.

I want a fox named Nightbeak

Concept time. Drop me a line at haisocass@comcast.net, and give me a little info about you. I'd like to know who all is reading this. Also, if you want me to add anything (almost anything) to these blogs on a weekly/daily/monthly basis or one time only, I'm open to suggestions. Until One Acts and Csz get more in depth, these will be primarily about classes.
Japanese was alright. Normal blah blah blah stuff since we have lunch with the Japanese kids tomorrow. Cut up some meishi, spoke some "What is your favorite" and left. Woo...
Algebra 2 was boring. Easy work. Easy quiz. 'Nuff said.
At lunch, we had the most intense game of B.S. ever. EVER. EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Having Earth/Space with Taylor is hilarious. Just great.
Creative writing just made me realize something.
I'm sorry for everyone who is having a shitty year, but it's been great for me. Sure, I have a shitload of homework on a nightly basis, I have to deal with work, csz and drama, and somehow find time to stay sane, but it's still my favorite year so far. Sure, I miss last year's seniors, but they didn't effect my life any. They were just awesome people I got to hang out with. Most of the people that effect my life were younger than me or my age.
After school, I helped jump start a couple of cars. In a row.
Twas great.

Finishing up "The City of Ember". It's amazing.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Japanese. People pretending to work. Sensei trying to get people to work. Hermes being moronic. :D

TERRORISM!!!

I'm going to go ahead and not have a postscript, and tell you now. Christian Barnes was also suppose to be in this picture, but backed out right when I hit the button, making me say, "Great, now people will think I'm taking pictures of random guys."

So, hey, I'm caught up now and get to right about a day that I actually remember. Sweet.
Well, last night, I forgot to bring my W131 book home, so first thing in the morning, I attempted to complete it. Luckily, Oliver wasn't here, so I was able to finish the last bit of it in class.
During our group talk about the papers, Michael and I kept talking about the episode of Robot Chicken where the little kid pledges allegiance to "fart", and then the whole TERRORISM thing after it. It was great.
English was better again, after we got through reviewing our homework. We went into the computer lab and set up moodle and an account on the textbook site. For homework, we have to read Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God by Jonathan Edwards. I like looking into religions, so I think I'll like his blatant description of hell, even if I may not agree with the dude. I mean, who wants to be yell-preached at for two hours?
AP Psych was cool, but Pebz was all sad. It was Lindsey's bday, and Elise was being Elise. There was nothing extra about today's Psych class, but that was cool with me, I didn't feel that well. For lunch, IO helped Haley sneak out to sit with us. Elise and I got interviewed by the cougar news, but apparently McKenna had the mic hooked up wrong, so we won't be on it.
German was hilarious. Thanks to mom, I already know a bunch of German phrases, so die Frau and I will discuss stuff like what I know and such. IO has one more sticker than me, and I must defeat that.

Anywho, I'm out.

<3 Peace

Postscript: My P.S. is about something else! I'm starting to read a book called 'The City of Ember' and a prologue and one chapter in, it's amazing. I'm going to love it and its sequels. Post Apocalyptic Fiction is amazing to me.

8/21/08

And after this, I am all caught up and hopefully won't miss so many days. Yeesh.
Opened with Japanese 1. The Foreign Exchange kids are coming next week and since this year they are middle school girls who barely talk to sensei, me and Branden are plotting ways of making them talk. The best so far is to scope out the alpha female, kidnap her, and make the others talk to get her back.
Algebra 2 was fine. Boring. Maybe I was just down.
Lunch was slightly uneventful. Tony actually won a game of B.S. Nothing else really.
Earth/Space was pointless. Nothing interesting happens. Lastly, we started poetry in Creative Writing. So, fear that.

When drama starts up, there will be a lot more than just classes. Until then, deal with it.

<3 Peace

Postscript: Got a pic of Ellen as she was trying to drive away. Forgot about the camera until right then.
