Fish Life

So it's been what...almost 2 weeks of school?
The first week of my Freshman hs year ended, and it took FOREVER, too. (By the way, I never understood why they called us "Fish." I mean, I guess "fresh" sounds like "fish", but it's not like they call seniors "sharks" or juniors "jelly fish," so why us? Really.

Anyways I'm just gonna rant out my thoughts of high school: It's not as good as I thought it would be. Which isn't a big surprise, right? I mean, I've already talked about how I'm always disappointed, so why should this time be different?
Lol me and my drama...Actually, high school isn't that bad. It's gotten much better after the first few days. :) What surprises me is that the 1st day, I wasn't tardy AT ALL. :O Can you believe that? I guess my sense of direction has gotten better. But then again, I've gotten spazzier, too. So I guess it's even.
Our school's main hall is so crowded. There's like no personal space. And so many people just stand there and talk! How do they find the time? And I have to walk through that hall quite a few times, too. So I just push everyone out of my way, lol. Or if I have my violin, I just stick it in front of me, and people usually stay out of my way then 'cause they don't wanna get knocked over by my instrument. :) (So I'm guessing some people are mad at me right now..)

Speaking of instruments, my Orchestra teacher is crazy. She's good, but crazy. Lol however it makes for fun times, and I think she likes me! :D (She smiled at me twice!) Even though she still doesn't know my name, since there's so many Jenny's in our class. She likes to..vent out her excitement, I suppose. We're having a car wash, and get to play for baseball teams, and next year we get to go to AUSTRIA!! If I make Symphony.. so I have a lot of stuff to look forward to! :) (And then get disappointed again...lol.)

Well, anyways..now that I've ranted on her, I'll just rant on my other teachers worth ranting about, too.

So my Geometry teacher's cool. She works everything out very clearly, so I'm like, never confused. My World Geography teacher is really precise, and even though he's a guy, he has a girl last name. o.o lol. Plus he makes us number our spiral really weirdly. Instead of every page being a different number, he makes every assignment have a different page number. So like..our map would be page 1, and notes would be page 2, even if the map takes up 3 pages. o.o That confuses me very much.

COMPSCI. OMG our teacher goes on SUPER LONG RANTS about the book's author, and how he's stupid, or how the college board is power hungry, and stuff like that. And he just goes over this powerpoint, and adds a rant here and there, so every day I have to go home and re-review everything over again by myself. >.< It's very confusing. But I think it's just me, since I suck at computers to begin with. He said that some people will get their program running in 3 minutes, and others will take a week...I'm pretty sure I'll take a week, if not more. Sad, isn't it? Especially when I live in such a technological age.

But hey, I'm improving! Now I know how to switch between bases! :D I was all excited and told my vegetarian friend, and then he was all, "You didn't know that? Wow, you're stupid." You know what?!?! SHUT UP.

Anyways, lol. English is SO WEIRD. Like our teacher seemed SO MEAN the first few days, and wore ONLY BLACK, but apparently that was just to weed out the lazy people so they'd drop out. Now she's a bit nicer, and wears like pinks, whites, and reds. :)

Anyways apparently in her class we're not allowed to say "yeah," since it's disrespectful, and in formal papers, we can't use contractions, since that's slang, and on the second day I was tardy after lunch (I have B), and she got kinda mad at me. Like not mad, just..disappointed, I guess?

'Cause I took the wrong stairway, since I tried to take the shortcut but messed up, and so I had to run all the way across the school, and right as I was outside the bell rang. =.= And she was all, "How can you take the wrong stairway? All you have to do is take the main stairs! Or just take this hallway, and it'll bring you right up here!" Well. I couldn't talk back, so I was just like, "sorry." But I think she likes me now. :)

I have Spanish 6th period! We're just reviewing right now, but my teacher's from Spain, so she speaks mostly Spanish during the class period. =.= Anyways I can still follow her pretty well, but I still think last year's class and teacher was muuch better. :) Last year's Sr. was cool. Man, he should've moved up with us..and I should've been put in his class. >.>

Anyways last I have Biology. My teacher is really funny. He's always like sarcastic, and makes us feel stupid and crazy, lol. But I have a few friends in this class, and I made a new friend! :D He's nice.

So in the end, school's ok, I guess. There's too much homework. >.< I bet I'm gonna gain some weight this semester, since I'm not really moving around...Pah. Wish me luck?

Mi Horario!

LOL hi guys. I realized that most of you barely even know my first period, let alone..my others? So..I decided to give my thoughts on my classes.

OH! and btw, the title of this is "my schedule" in Spanish, in case you don't take that class...

1st Period-Science, Coach Mac
Ok, so...this class is ok. But my lab partner's Nar, since we had to switch seats.. ANYWAYS. I'm not gonna be mean. Ok...so..this class is pretty funny, thanks to Coach Mac's dry humor, but I really don't like how first period always misses all the cool experiments. Like, melting crayons, or the graham cracker thing. IT'S NOT FAIR!! I mean, on Friday, Coach Mac overslept and came 10 MINUTES BEFORE THE END OF FIRST PERIOD!! So I was all happy, 'cause I thought we could just blow off the whole period, but NOOO. We had to do friggin' VOCAB. WORKSHEETS!! That would "help us in the long run". Ok, what long run are you talking about?? The test is on TUESDAY. We don't even need to know vocab. that much. And I highly doubt all of us are gonna be geologists one day, Mrs. Carswell. So BACK OFF.

Anyways. You know how Coach Mac has a Pacemaker? OMG just FRIDAY had I connected all the dots! He has a pacemaker, which equals to fake heart..which makes him a ROBOT!! :D THAT'S WHY HE HAS NO EMOTIONS...AND HAS DRY HUMOR!! AND IS ALL SMARTICLELY! :) OMG I just made a very important discovery..

2nd Period-Spanish, Sr. Wasserman
Ok, this class is SUPER FUN. I get to sit next to Yanan, and we act all stupid...Then I can like, mouth words to Michelle, and Claudia's next to me, and Mary, mi awesome amiga, is close by. :) I like this class, well, 'cause of the friends, but Sr. Wasserman's cool too. He's like, my favorite teacher, I think. :)

OMG. On Friday, it was crazy hair day, right? Ok, so Sr. Wasserman has that scary rocker wig, and Claudia walked in the door. Then he jumped out at her with that thing on, and she screamed SO LOUD. IT HURT MY EARS, AND IT WAS LIKE, VIBRATING!! And then she collapsed against the door, proceeding to have a possible heart attack. LOL, sorry Claudia, but that was SO FUNNY! :D

So...me and Yanan have our own stupid jokes, like...jellyfish, and stuff like that. And we do this weird rap thing and then we're all like COMO! :D It's hilarious. (BTW, for those of you that don't know me, I'm not mental. I'm AWESOME. Just saying. ;) )

3rd Period-Orchestra, Ms. Victor
This class is cool, too. :) I got Rohan, Michelle, Joyce, lil Michelle, Helen, Joseph, Alex, Anmol, David, Chelsea, ....and lots of other people in this class. :) Rachel, Amy, Claire, David Z., etc. So anyways, we just hack away at our instruments in this class...it's pretty fun. :) And I especially like Ms. Victor's expressions when someone's playing. If they're good, (KEVIN ZHANG cough cough), she'll be like, all serene and peaceful. And then if someone kind of messed up, and they're out of tune, she'll look like she ate like, a warhead or something. (OMG we SO have to get her to do that one day..Fiesta? :P)

Yeah...she also tells us weird stories about like, refrigerator heads and whatnot. :P OH! And she teaches us new vocab. words, like...onus... HA.

4th Period-PE, Coach Butters
LOL I LOOVE this class! :) We have so much fun...Ann, Rachel, Ariel, and Mariana all goof around and sing stuff in the locker rooms, and then during class, Mark, Joseph, Gary, and Kevin merge in with us, so we create this huge azn circle.

So anyways...a typical normal free day in PE would be...Ariel desperately tries to hug Joseph, Mark and Joseph do perverted things, Gary sits off to the side looking embarrassed, I talk to him, Ann, and Rachel, and Kevin, Alex V., and Kevin Sun act stupid and sing Yellow Submarine songs. :P Yuup..life is good.

5th Period-Algebra, Mrs. McCutchen
This class is cool. I sit next to April, and we pass notes, while Gary plays games on his calculator. XD Lol..you're so cool Gary... And then Kevin would try to be cool, too, and play games..and then he's rant around and advertise his blog/server/website, or whatever it is.

Then Kevin Sun messed around with Ralph and gets in trouble, while me and Nidhi and Busola wave weirdly at each other.

OH YAH! AND JEFF! He does perverted movements, and I try to ignore them, but that's hard considering he's right next to me. :P

6th Period-ELA, Mr. Robison
I like this class 'cause MICHELLE'S in it! :) And so's Uttara! Then Alex is here, and Kevin... Lol, but it's fun listening to the conversations around me, 'cause this guy named Harsha's always talking about this girl that he likes, and how everything about her's perfect. :P It's SO FUNNY.

But about the class itself...it's kinda hard, 'cause I get all the subject, prepositions, helping/action/linking verbs, direct/indirect objects, and prepositional nouns/adjectives mixed up. (And you can kinda see why I do...) But..I gots a 99 in it! :)

7th Period-US History, Mr. Garcia
LOL this class is funny, 'cause Joseph keeps on messing with (oh gawd that sound wrong) Arthi, and then Uttara and I laugh at her. :P But Yanan's stuck on the other side of the room...Also, Mr. Garcia like to make fun of Ayaz and Sachen. :) So it's all good.

But there's this creepy guy named John in our class, and he was like...EMO! HE STICKS PENCIL LEADS INTO HIS HAND!! AND STICKS STAPLES IN THE WALL! WITHOUT THE STAPLER!! I'm scared of him...and hopefully I don't have to sit next to him. But if Mr. Garcia is super mean and makes me, I want someone I know next to me to protect me, lol..Yanan! :) Or Joseph. 'Cause he's kinda scary...

So anyways, yup. That's my schedule!! :) Anyways, I'm getting a lot of stuff from Alex's blog, http://www.whereblogscometodie.blogspot.com/, and so...I just wanted to give credit. :)

Yaah...also, Chapter 5's coming! I sort of forgot about that for a while...don't worry, I'll give a recap on events before I start the new chapters from now on. And if you guys want to read earlier chapters/posts, you can search it up (there's a spot on the left).

OMG you guys can also search up my India story from 6th grade. I typed it up, but I never told anyone.. :-/. lol I keep on cracking up at it every time I read it. It brings back so many good memories! :)

Anyways, thanks for reading and visiting. Vote, comment, and rate! :) Graccias.

And what now? I forgot what to talk about. Like, I had this whole list, but then I ate food, and it like....washed away. :P

I needa go buy some namebrand clothes..that mall thing with Michelle and Yanan was SO FUN, but I should've bought those jeans. :) I don't know how people wear them all the time, though. Doesn't it make them feel hot? (Like, warm. Not in that other way. :P)

Oh yeah! And Gary's sick! :( I hope you feel better Gary! :D See ya in school tomorrow, I think!!

ATLANTA => ATALANTA

HOLY CRAP!!!!!! ATLANTA IS IN 3 DAYS!!!!!!! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

No! I'm becoming like Claudia and her smiley faces! (no offense, claudia.)

BUT I'M JUST SO EXCITED! I CAN'T WAIT!

However, I know some of you aren't going (well, a lot of you), so I will make it easier for you guys to read this by comparing Orchestra to Greek Mythology.

So as you know, Orchestra is going to ATLANTA!!!!!!!! to perform. But isn't there a person in Greek Mythology named Atalanta?? (I read ahead. :/)
-checking our mythology book *flips pages*-
Ok. I got it. So lemme give you a brief summary of Atalanta:
So she was born (a princess), and her dad wanted a boy, so he left her on a mountain to die. Then a mom-bear found her and thought it was her cub or something, so she raised her.

Then there was this guy, Meleager (stupid name...sounds like eager, if you ask me, but hey....it's Greek!) and Atropos (one of the Fates) visited his mom and said that if this one stick remained unburnt, then Meleager would remain alive. So his mom went all paranoid, and locked the stick in a brass case, which means no air, which means no fire. Capiche?? (is that how you spell it?)

So this prince, Meleager, was "different", because all he wanted to do was hunt, and didn't care about girls because apparently all men in Greece should do choose their wife. Anyways, later he was the best hunter in Greece.

So one day he was hunting this freakin' bear, and he lost track of it, but followed its blood trail. There he met Atalanta, and they started wrestling. O.o. Then Atalanta went unconcious, and somehow she awoke sitting with Meleager under a tree and they fell in love apparently...

Then word came to Artemis and she got mad, so she created this super big evil boar to kill everyone.

Long story short, the boar was killed by Atalanta, Meleager, and a bunch of other great heroes.
Meleager's mom was mad that he fell in love with Atalanta, and he killed her brothers because they made him mad, so she killed Meleager.

Atalanta was super sad, so she went back to her regular home before she was left on a mountain to die. She didn't wanna marry anyone, so she said that she would have a race with people, and if they won, they could marry her, but if they lost, she beheaded them. She was a very nice person, very nice.

But there was this guy Hippomenes (HIPPO!!! HAHAHAHAH), and he was "madly in love" with Atalanta, so he insisted on racing. He prayed to Aphrodite, and she gave him 3 golden apples. (I know, a nice way to win against Atalanta, huh?) But these apples gave Atalanta "memories" (I don't know how else to explain it), and she was distracted enough so that Hippomenes could win the race. Hooray! He wins!

But that's SO WEIRD. ATLANTA => ATALANTA. All you need to add is just an "A"! I wonder if Atlanta is named after Atalanta....that would be kinda weird though. I mean, we're not a very strong Greek country.

But I hope you liked my Greek mythology lesson!
