Doraemon
I'm pretty sure I passed my science and math exams. Did I make an A? Ehhh...
Does anyone still remember John Kerry? "John Kerry's maternal grandfather, James Grant Forbes, was born in Shanghai, China, where the Forbes family of China and Boston accumulated a fortune in opium and China trade." So that's how he got rich...

Exam Stress
So English II is probably my worst exam so far. But it's going to get much worse tomorrow. Someone save me from science and math. I've been studying for 5 hours and the cramming isn't even halfway done. I'm just taking a break to complain.
Bush can legally torture children?!
Red Kryptonite turned Superman into a midget. I didn't know that.

Star-struck
It's that time again. Young Author's entries are due tomorrow and I've completed 0 entries for it. Last year, I wrote stuff up on the spot on placed third in all three catergories. You think I could do it again? We'll see soon enough.
I hate the morning talk-show we listen to every morning on the bus. It's completely useless. Nothing you ( Read more... ) -

Less salt, please.
I'm not overconfident in anything because I know that can be my downfall. But I always assumed that I would get into an ivy league college only if I worked hard enough. Now that I know that that's not enough, I'm going to continue to work even harder. And even if I don't get the diamond, it's better to get the cubic zirconium than say, a glass ( Read more... ) -
I didn't die, my internet did.
Merry Christmas. Not "Happy Holidays," but Merry Christmas. You know why? Because Christmas gets us time off school, not the other holidays. The break from school is finally here.
I got my PSAT scores last week. No comment on that, except to say that I'm a bit disappointed. SO close.
I should be giving out my Christmas presents, but none of ( Read more... ) -
Christmas Frenzy (and it didn't even involve shopping)
I've never fallen asleep in class, at least not any time I remember. Yesterday, however, I was so tired that my elbow kept slipping on the desk as I tried to stay awake in math class. Waves of sleep crashed down on my like some sort of giant tidal wave - I fought to stay awake in that class.
Christmas has pounced on me. I heard someone say, "Only ( Read more... ) -
met the mayor
Some people can't handle the internet. Last week, the school showed a video about a 13-year-old girl who was strangled by a guy she met and flirted with over the internet. She knew he was married and 10+ years her senior, but that didn't stop her from meeting him in person all by herself. I thought it was common sense not to overshare personal ( Read more... ) -
Beyond Mediocrity
Oh no, not another
melodramatic teen poem
"life sucks, i'm bored"
No, I want to
grab life
and wring out
the little disappointments
that stain it
The reason I try so hard
Is not to make a fool out of you
I just don't want to disappoint myself
It's like they say
You're your own worst enemy
Your own worst critic
I'm trying to use my faults
As ( Read more... ) -
Fetus in Fetu
Ordering a Subway's sandwich at Walmart last Saturday, I witnessed a group of girls whose soccer team was oh-so-appropriately named "Rebels." I don't know why, but I think it's perfect that rich surburban girls call themselves rebels while they ride around in SUVs driven by their soccer moms who pay $200 for sandwiches. It's like me diving into a ( Read more... )
