Is Mah Blog

Is just a blog. Whatever happens to spew from my mind at the time will wind up on this blog in one way or another.

    I was sitting in homeroom today working on my chemistry homework. I got stuck somewhere and asked my teacher a question (he's my homeroom and chem teacher, convieniently), and he explained to me what I was supposed to do. As I was working, however, a thought struck me. A few underclassmen had stopped in for extra help in Bio Lab and they'd overheard me. I wonder...how bizarre my conversation with my teacher must have sounded to them. I also remembered being a sophomore myself, and listening to him talk to Juniors about chemistry, and how I wished I knew what was being said. It was like they were speaking a different language. But now it sounds so normal - for the most part, I do know what he's talking about - I wonder...were those sophomores thinking the same thing I did last year? Or do I just think too much? Ha-ha. Could be either, I suppose.

    As far as that lab that was never turned in goes, my teacher's going to let me make it up, but it really makes me mad. He told me I can turn in the write-up, but I don't have a copy of anything that's supposed to go in the write-up (save for one sheet of calculations that I can't seem to decode. Zach possesses all the important documents), and I didn't even know how to do it the first time! But not only that, it wasn't my fault that it wasn't turned in! It was my stupid lab partner's, and now my grade's hurting for his carelessness. I don't want to make it up. I shouldn't have to. I have enough stress as it is! The last thing I need is this to worry about! I'd have to do the entire lab all over again, and I just don't have time. I have to finish this stupid project for my art class that I'm probably never going to get done, but it looks like crap anyway so I don't care. Our town simply does not support the arts. I'm doing this painting, and the paints are total crap. It sucks. I hate my city. I hate my school, and I reeeeeaaaaallly hate Chemistry. I should have taken Bio II. But no. I'm stupid. I fail at life...and Chem.

We had a snow day today! Come now, dance with me! I can't believe it! For once, I plead for a snow day, and it finally shows up. How cool is that? And not only did I get the day off from school, I also got to prove a point to a handful of stupid people. They were under the impression that, just because our school is under a system of using 2 hour delays now, we were no longer going to have snow days. That is absolute bull, as well as crap. So nya. I was right, and they were wrong.

I really need to get to work on my secret santa. I don't know what I'm going to do yet. And I have to have it in by...sometime next week! This sucks. I have to color it and everything. And it's gonna look awful. I'm sad now. I wonder who got me? Hum.

Uhh, let's see. Well, there's the usual stuff. Blah blah blah, my dad's an asshole, blah blah blah...uuhhhh...oh! I was playing around with some of my writing stuffs yesterday. And I got all sorts of stuff done. Who knows? Maybe I'll get the patience to write a book or something. That'd be cool, right?

What else? Mmm...I dunno. I can't think of anything. So bye!

I made some minor changes to my poem, "Requiem of Lost Love". Now it's called "Fade to Grey". I still don't like the title, but I'll survive.

I have another sonnet I'll be posting sooner or later. It's just a matter of getting off my lazy butt to do it.

My eyes...HURT. Like, unbelievably. My right eye's really itchy. And it sucks. A lot.

Hmmm...is that it? Oh, In about an hour and a half, I'll be going to my English class. I can't wait to see what my teacher has to say about that letter mom had me give her. MWA HA HAHAHAAHAAAAA!!!!

*ahem* And now I am composed.

I wish I had a roleplaying partner again. My usual partner lost her internets again, and now I am alone in the world. I've been venturing about in Yahoo! Chatrooms, but haven't found anything quite as...good, as my other partner. It's sad. If you're reading this, and you're interested, PM me. Pweeze?

Maybe I'll post a forum thread about it. I don't know yet.

Ooh! I found some old CDs with a bunch of music I don't have anymore on it! I was soooo happy. I'm gonna put them on my cruizer sooner or later. Can't wait! Whee!

Aaaaaand...I think that's it. Gosh, is there anything I didn't think of? Not yet. I'll let you know how my English class goes, though. Next chance I get. Mwahaha.

I got a bit of extra time. Let's see how much of this letter I can type up:

Dear [name withheld]:

While I applaud your efforts to educate yours students as to the importance of an American classic such as To Kill a Mockingbird, I'm appalled that you consider "A Time to Kill" an appropriate film to show high school students. An English classroom is hardly a suitable setting in which to be showing movies in the first place--aren't you in the business of promoting reading? Pedophilia, child sexual abuse and racial violence are not subjects that should be included in your curriculum, and while the book does include those themes, To Kill a Mockingbird fails to offer the gratuitous violence displayed in A Time to Kill.

Additionally, the lead character's actions in that movie cannot compare to the courage of Atticus Finch, the America Film Institute's "greatest hero of American film." Finch is nearly a folk hero in legal circles, and has done more good for the self-image and public perception of the legal profession than any real-life lawyer.

If you feel your lesson preparation skills are so inadequate that you must show a film in class, perhaps the 1962 classic, "To Kill a Mockingbird" would be more appropriate, especially considering that the students are actually studying that book and not the John Grisham pulp fiction version of a similar murder trial. My daughter does not have permission to watch the film you selected. In the future, I would prefer that she actually study English and American literature instead of watching movies.

...I love my mom. xD

Well, probably not. But it comes close. I got paid Tuesday (fifty bucks!) and I got a new cell phone yesterday.

ALSO yesterday (which is where the 'best day ever' bit comes in), I was given a permission slip by my English teacher (whom I hate. A lot. No, more than that) to give to my parents to see if I can watch an R-Rated movie (A Time to Kill, I think it's called. I've never heard of it. Maybe you have). Well, according to my teacher, the movie pertains somewhat to the book we're reading, To Kill a Mockingbird (REALLY good book!).

Well, I told my mom this, and she went and looked up the movie (she'd never heard of it, either.) And apparently, it's a really violent flick. With like, rape and stuff. And lots of not-niceness. And after discussing it with me, Mom decided to not only deny me permission to watch this movie (which I'm totally okay with) but also wrote an angry letter telling my teacher...well, how dumb she is. I don't think I have enough time to tonight, but I'll try to post what she wrote in another blog. Hopefully Mom still has a copy. If not, I is sorry. Yesterday was seriously great. And my cellphone is cute!

Wow. I'm really bored. My Chemistry class is slowly getting hard again, but I think I'm bringing my F up. I think it went up three points, but that's not enough. I still need to bring it up like, another four or five. *sigh* I feel really crappy. It could just be because I'm tired, though. And my stomach hurts.

I have a DJing gig tonight! I'm gettin' paid fifty bucks! I can't wait. I'm gonna go buy me a new cell phone (my old one went missing long, long ago. I figure it's gone for good. I didn't like it anyway).

I'm thinking of getting a Go phone from AT&T, but I'm not sure yet. I can't find any mildly cheap ones that I like. And I can't find any stores nearby that sell them. I'll have to research s'more.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

I'm SO pissed right now!!! Wanna know why? I'll tell you why. It's my stupid chemistry grade (I know. How old is this getting?). Last week, my lab partner and I were doing this lab and he wanted to do the write-up (we usually do a write-up for our labs, just a report-like thing of what we did. I don't know how other chem classes work. >.>;; So I thought I'd fill y'all in). He PROMISED me he'd get it done. And I believed him, showed him how to do it, and set him on his merry way.

Well, the day it's due, he shows up late, which scared me out of my mind because I thought we wouldn't be able to get it turned in (luckily for me, my chem teacher said he'd give us another day in case Zach didn't show up). But, he did, and he said he had the paper done. I told him to turn it in, and he said OK. Then, he did nothing.

Well, the class went by and we took a quiz. I saw him walk up to turn the quiz in, and told him to turn in the lab while he was up there. He said OK, and, again, did nothing.

Well, now, about a week later, I find out that the lab was NEVER turned in, and my grade dropped four percentage points because of it. And of course, Zach wasn't here today (which is for his own good, because I would have ripped him a new asshole if he was). I'm REALLY pissed! Now I'm SEVEN points away from a D and I'm gonna go NUTS if I fail. I've never failed a class before in my life! But then again, I've also never had to depend on someone to get my work done for me before either. I let my laziness cloud my judgement. But no more. If I have to do EVERYTHING from here on, I will. And I'll tell my chem teacher, too. That Zach's a lazy bastard that only does grunt work because I tell him to. He's not dependable, and I'm never going to put MY grades in HIS hands again. I learned my lesson. I don't f***ing care anymore. I'm NOT going to fail because of someone else. If I'm going to FAIL, it's going to be my OWN damn fault!!! ...Wait. NO! I'm not going to fail at all! Not if I can help it!

AARRRGHHH!!!! I HATE...STUFF!!!

I think I'm getting addicted to this blog. I wanna post a new entry every time I log on. Even if I have nothing to say.

I read the entire Spiderwick Chronicles last night (five books, a little over 100 pages per book. Took me about five hours to read them all). They were really good. Hey, aren't they making a movie about it, too? I'll totally go see it.

Now I'm reading A Drowned Maiden's Hair by Laura Amy Schlitz. It's cute so far, but I'm only like, ten pages in (exactly ten, as a matter of fact)

Chemistry's getting so much easier for me. I think I'm gonna cry. We got this packet that covers the entire chapter, and I was doing it last night, but got really frusterated because on question 11, I had no idea how to do the problem. But I asked my Chem teacher about it today: turns out we haven't even covered that stuff yet. Thank GOD. We're going over it tomorrow, and the packet (according to him) probably won't be due until the end of the week. THAT was a breath of fresh air.

Hm...what else. Oh. The sonnet I wrote for my Shakespeare class is up now. Go check it out! Maybe if I get enough poems, I can publish a book. That'd be neat. I already have someone who'd be willing to publish it, I think (my mom's got connections. Aww yeah). And if I don't, I'm sure I can get it done anyway.

My little sister wants to write books when she grows up. x3 She's six, and so cute.

I think that's all that's been going on.

Hey, guys! Happy December! 22 days until Christmas, 23 until Kwanza and only a whopping 2 until Hanukkah! Happy Holidays, guys.

Well, guess what? Things are finally starting to look up for me at school. I AM failing this term in Chemistry, however, I'm only three percentage points away from a D. AND we just finished a really hard unit, and moved on to one that I think is going to be much easier. You have no idea how happy that makes me.

I wrote a Sonnet in Shakespeare. xD Haww, yeah. I might post it here on PD, too. I like it. It's got a lot of Lewis Carroll stuff in it. I love Lewis Carroll. You should, too. x3

Uuuhh...OOOH! OHOHOHOHOHOOOHOOOOH!!! Guess what?! I painted this picture in my art class, and now it's in an art gallery!! I know! WHEE!! It's in the Eastwood Mall here in Ohio (if you know the Eastwood Mall is, you should totally check it out!), at the...outreach gallery? I forget the name. But it's there! I did a monochromatic painting of Demyx. I is so proud! It's all in blue. ^^

Now if only things would be a bit better at home. Oh well. Can't win all the time, huh?

I'm playing Final Fantasy IX again. I'm so weak. But it's all good. I'm gonna run through it and beat it (I'm almost on Disc 4 now), and then I'm going to get a really in-depth walkthrough and a bunch of other stuff and do EVERYTHING the game has to offer next time around. I've accumulated all sorts of cheat-sheet stuff over time. xD The only thing I won't be able to do is get Excalibur II, but you have to get to Memoria in under 12 hours to do that. That's like, near-impossible. Completely impossible if you're going to go as in-depth as I want to.

I'm also going to be able to play Final Fantasy VII soon. I can't wait. My buddy Steve says I'm going to love it. I hope he's right. I bet I will. I love Final Fantasy.

Uuuhhmm...what else? Hm. OOh! Only two more weeks until Christmas vacation here! Aweeesssoooome! What should I get for Christmas? I was thinking of getting a PDA, but I'm not sure if I want that as much as I want a nice tablet and another harddrive for my computer. If I could get a nice tablet and another hard drive...I wouldn't even NEED a PDA. I wonder. I wonder I wonder I wonder. I'll have to think about it. All opinions are welcome. ^^

But seriously...does anybody READ these? You totally should. I think mine's a real page-turner. Very interesting how my moods are constantly fluctuating. xD If I wasn't a teen, I'd think I was bipolar.

Hm. Here's some interesting philosophy for you. Can crazy people be aware of their insanity? Like, maybe I really AM a nutcase. If I am, would I think like that? Hum. I'm weird.

Hey, here's something else. I heard about this in Homeroom, and got a great laugh out of it. Okay. Global warming. It's supposed to dry up the entire world, and we're all going to die in a big drought, right? Now, is that...before, or after the polar ice caps melt and flood the planet? I mean, you can't have a flood and a drought at the same time. x3 I dunno. Maybe it's not as funny to you. I laughed. The guy who said it's a real weirdo. But he's cool.

Hmmm...I think that's it for me now. See you later?
