Everybody Have Fun...

Hi Everyone!

I'm currently listening to I'm not that Girl from the musical Wicked.

So, my 18th birthday is coming up really soon. I am very excited about it. There is a local 18+ store, a bit on the naughty side if you know what I mean, and my friends and I are going there. It will be Twin, Mediterranean, Platinum (another really close friend of mine), and Manhattan. The only thing is that Manhattan is not 18. So I feel sort of bad because she isn't going to be able to come to that part of the celebration. When I brought it up to her she said that it was better because she thinks it's stupid and she wouldn't want to be seen there. I mean, to each their own, but that sort of hurt. I mean, we are going there to have a good laugh, nothing weird.

Oh, but afterwards I am going to a semi-local video store that has a 18+ section and we are getting some "sensitive materials". I am looking forward to it. I think it will be really funny and I think it'll be a good time overall.

Enough about that. I know that I haven't written about my 'book' in a while. I have started working on it again. Twin is a writer as well and she was talking to me about writing some stuff out of order and since I don't know how to connect the part I'm on now with where I want it to go, I am writing the future scene and going back to connect later. I hope all works out. I am having Twin read part of it tomorrow. I am really nervous because she will be the first person to read it. AHHHH! So, yeah, that's my life.

Oh, wait, River and Ginger are amazing. I'll tackle them one at a time. (Oh and I need to talk about Noodles too!) So River is amazingly funny. I feel like he is one of the most brilliant men I have ever met. He seems to have a neverending wealth of knowledge. I find myself wanting to talk to him all the time because I feel like he inspires me not only to be a better student but also to incorporate my intelligence into everyday conversations. However I feel like a fool because I feel like there is always something I say that makes me feel like an idiot.

Ginger has been having a hard time with our class. It's not his fault, the class is out of control. He is really doing his best and he is an amazing teacher. (oh, and not that I was looking but he has a really great butt as well) He is moving seats tomorrow and I have a thing about sitting in the front of the classroom so I waited after class to talk to him. He seemed so dejected, it broke my heart. I asked him to try and take into consideration that I like sitting in the front and he said that he could do that. He then proceeded to tell me how much he appreciates me in that class. I thought it was really sweet because it's stuff like that keeps me behaving. He's a great guy and I feel bad that the class is so awful.

Okay, now, since I was just talking about moving seats... Noodles moved our seats and so now I'm not sitting next to Puck anymore! I'm definitely sad. Puck and I talked and he is sooo sweet. Now I won't be able to talk to him as much... =( Silly Noodles...

Mehhh

Hi Everyone!

I'm currently listening to How Did I Fall in Love with You by the Backstreet Boys.

So... Stone's a hottie. I'm mad at Manhattan. Twin is gorgeous. Noodles is very funny. Ginger is quite possibly the coolest geek nerd teacher EVER. River's classes are the best. This is a short post.

Ginger with some WAS-AAAAA-BEEEEEEE!

Hi Everyone!

I'm currently listening to Gone Forever by Three Days Grace.

Instead of lamenting about my sucky life right now, I am going to talk about something I think is really cool. So, Friday I went to talk to Ginger after class. Considering we both have a free period it works out really nicely. I wanted to take the time to tell him that I really enjoy his class and the material that we are covering.

So I tell him this and how excited I am about the class. He goes on to tell me how flattered he is and how sorry he is to ME. I was so surprised. He said that he felt bad because he knows that the class is rude and disrespectful. He was telling me that I was one of two students who he feels are taking the class for the right reasons. (The rest are taking it as a blowoff) I thought the whole conversation we had was really cool.

I thought it was nice to see a teacher coming to realize how he needs to control a class. So many teachers these days just let kids get away with way too much.

School's Back

Hi Everyone!

I'm currently listening to Daughter to Father by Lindsey Lohan.

So, school has started and back to the grindstone once again. I sort of just want to talk about my life events right now.

First period I have AP English IV. The teacher, I shall call him River. Well, River is what every teacher should be like. He is so smart and really gets me excited for class and learning, well, him and the material. This one guy who I despise is in the class, but so is one of my really good friends. So I guess it's a bit of a give and take situation.

Second period is my history class. The teacher is constantly cracking jokes and just being nice. I was really looking forward to this class because there are so many people who I don't actually know, but today we worked in groups and of course the teacher paired me up with three girls I knew. I was sort of frustrated, and I think I took it out on them. Whoops. Well, they were being apathetic, and I hate that.

Third period I have NOTHING. It is a nice break in my day. I have definitely been taking advantage of it.

Fourth period is my AP french class. The teacher I shall call Noodles. Well, Noodles is soooo nice. I had her my fresh and soph year, so we have a great rapport. Also, a nice boy is in my class (I am naming him Puck). So Puck sits close to me and he is really funny and super nice. I hear from my sources (his ex) that he is like my ex, a good friend and a bad boyfriend. Oh well, it's always nice to have a bit of eye candy.

Fifth period I have astronomy. I am really interested in this class. I will probably try and take another course in college. However, because it is a low level elective many students in it look at it as a blowoff class and just talk and disrespect the teacher. (I'm calling the teacher Ginger). I am probably one of three people who are respectful. I don't like that. But I love the class.

Sixth is nothing again.

Seventh is my computer programming class. I am the ONLY girl. UGH! I only know one boy in there, luckily he is really nice and we're friends.

Eighth I have River again as my teacher. I love this class, it is a class that analyzes media. I am loving it already, right now we are thinking about music and I have to pick five significant songs. It has turned out to be quite difficult to choose five.

Then last is gym. uggh, don't even make me talk about this.

=)
