Peppers/sauce at Johnnie's Beef...not that hot. Not really at all.
Unless you get it in your eye. Long story short, I had my eye closed for a good 5 minutes, even after flushing it out, because the second I'd open it, I'd be in hell. It still hurts as I type this, some odd 9 hours later.

Summer school's a breeze, but I'm not getting enough sleep. ( Read more... )

3 options for next year...give me your feedback, please. My schedule so far ( Read more... )

Man. I don't even need to blow this situation out of proportion to use it to justify my utter contempt for the group.
While I'm pissed because, well, what happened happened, I'm glad I no longer need to grasp at straws to have a personal reason to hate the whole lot of them.

In a sense, it's liberating.  Other than that, summer's a complete bore.

Well, these past two days have been interesting. I hung out with Logli, which, despite doing nothing but getting wet, was quite enjoyable.  And today I ran into Robby at a 7-11. Man, I miss ye olde journalism staff a good deal ( Read more... )

I grow weary of my classmates. Seems like I can never enjoy myself when I'm in a large enough group of them.
Oy, all I'm good for is help in school, apparently.

On a different note, I need to learn to dance. Nothing spiffy, but just...how to avoid making an ass of myself on the dance floor.  Also, the 360 is operational again, but I've permanently ( Read more... )

Man, I kicked that precalc final's ass. Straight A's again.
For that, I got Guitar Hero 2. Which corrupted my Xbox 360 hard drive. I lost ALL of my game saves, and the 360 gets the Ring of Death now.
Still. Life is good. I've a dance party to go to tomorrow, so that should be fun.

And one HA-HA to all you suckers who took the ACT today. I knew I ( Read more... )

This has been the most stress-free series of finals evar. I end physics and journalism with solid As, I need a -22% or higher on the Constitution test (which I believe I aced) to keep my A in APUS, and I got a 100% on the writing portion of the Spanish final. At this point, I'm worried about Lit to some extent, but also precalc. He finally decides ( Read more... )

Well, I've already got my first journalism story for the next year. Who knows? It might even be the first staff ed.
AP classes are stopping me from taking...well...AP classes.

In short, 3rd period next year is going to be a fucking party. Or a mob scene.

1) Journalism staff might get reduced because independent study might get nuked.  Therefore, we'd lose at least one Opinions Editor, as well as both Associate Editors.
2) No AP Stats for me because independent study isn't allowed.
3) Singleton AP classes (Government, Art History, etc.) are fucking up everyone's schedules, therefore my only options ( Read more... )
