BLOG: The other other other white meat...
So I'm alright, back in school and everything--trying to resestablish my groove. HA. Well, trying to -make- one... I didn't really have one for the entire second semester of last year.
Things are swell, really. =) Although, I do missing being with friends as often as I was this summer. That, and the mass amounts of sleep--I kinda got used to those.
But after many schedules and schedule changes, I'm set, and, like I said--trying to establish GROOVE.
1st Hour-- College American History: This is my favorite class! It's a satellite class, so I get to set at a table in a swirly-leather chair, and pretend I'm an astronaut--talking into a microphone and watching someone talk to me via a TV. So laid back! I cross my legs indian-style, eat breakfast, and take notes over interesting stuff (Right now, the Old West =) )! NO homework, a handful of essays spread out over the -entire- year, a test every 3 weeks, and a research paper with -our- choice of topic. My topic? Wyatt Earp. Oh yeah. =D If this is what college is like--COUNT ME IN!
P.S. Boy, did we white folk fuck over the indians.
2nd Hour-- World Literature: God. And I was really looking forward to this class--even ripped open my schedule just -for it.- This teacher sucks! She says to expect to do an essay a week, in addition to any assigned in class. Also, we have to read a book a month, (Writing a 'Book Review' over that as well--aren't I bit old for book reports?!) in addition to whatever is assigned in class. Bleh! Not to mention that from what I can gather, this lady is her very own hero/favorite person ever.
3rd Hour-- LIFETIME SPORTS: That is, at least starting tomorrow--THANK GOD. I originally had Body Conditioning this hour, and for the past two days have regretted every 49 minutes of it--not to mention the hour afterwards that I'm -shaking-, and/or nauseated. Not to mention the pain of hobbling around/squatting/rising from a chair/walking et. al.! Gah--I know it's in me somewhere, but that's not what I took the class for, I took the class for exercise--and from what kids had said before, it was mild exercise, despite the name. So, psuedo-reluctantly (But absolutely NO regrets!) I dropped today for this lighter workout regimen--for instance.. croquet!
I am -so- happy. Did I mention that I got the last slot in the class?!!!
-So- happy.
4th Hour-- Calculus: Wow, why am I in here again? At least I love the teacher and have Paula to help me (Thanks a million, doll!). I know I can do this, I just gotta do the homework. =P
Lunch-- Heheheheehe. So, this isn't really a class. But I'm a senior--I can officially cut in the lunchline now. MAN does lunch feel -so- much longer now! =) ...Just thought I'd bring it up...
5th Hour-- Spanish II: Will be easy more or less. Some hard projects and a lot of homework--but the homework is really the only trick, it's in the same boat as Calc. As long as I stay on top of things, I should be ok. This is my class with Dawno and I sit -right- behind her! =D
6th Hour-- Teacher's Assistant: Did I mention I am the only one in school? I had to write an essay to the principal to be able to do it--otherwise they aren't allowed--to let her know that I wanted to know more of what it was like to be a teacher, etc. It's alright, I don't really do much. But it gives me time to chill and get homework done--call me lazy, but it is really nice.
7th Hour-- Mythology: Peice of cake. Gotta love those Aztecs--they just wanted to kill everyone, especially pregnant ladies. Also, I have Paula and Jessica. =)
I don't really have a lot else to say/going on. Mom's been working nights and sleeping at Richard's, so I've been living by myself effectively. It's ok--but it gets kind of lonely. To compensate, I have been exploring the world of cooking... and, ya know, since I'm the one that has to do it now. So far I have bested seared porkchops, bacon, pancakes, tacos, and tons of steamed veggies. Additionally, I might add that I have been eating a lot more healthy--every day since school started I've had 5 fruits/veggies a day! And I officially eat whole-grain -everything- now. Baby steps I guess--but everyday! Plus, I've been drinking milk and orange juice a lot--and water (Raspberry flavored Dasani is DELICIOUS).
Owwwww, the longer I sit down--the more it hurts when I get up... *sigh* 1 4m w34k.
Shout-outs to Adam--he needs them right now.
Word to Cizzle--much love your way.
