in November 13th, 2006 @ 20:34Homeworkins-must find notes on interview for journalism, cuz story majorly sucks without them. Seeing as the story’s kind of based on the notes. Yeah.
two more chaps of FOOF due tomorrow
got a 96 on math test. really happy b/c haven’t been doing so well in math. not much time for it.
sry for complete lack of grammar. brain is dead.
science vocab way overdue. because i *coughcough* forgot about it *coughcough* from the day i was absent. she’ll probably take a couple points off. gaspe.
[insert fav explitive here]. think notes might be due tomorrow. history. haven’t started. deeply screwed.
way behind in nano too. yes, nano is hw. work+home=nano=hw
*hallelujah chorus* notes not due tomorrow. Oh happy day. I should start them anyway…
so, ve have! in order of the periods, since that’s how i do my hw. english-FOOFy doofy woofy (sry, the name FOOF amuses me) journalim-draft due tomorrow, somewhat difficult due to lack of notes. history-notes due tomorrow band-PFFFFT like everybody doesn’t get an A+ in band anyway. we don’t have hw. lunch-(aka study hall) eat science-vocab (whoopsies
) and notes math-some q’s, not too long, not too hard. so far anyway. and latin-(aka study hall #2) i think there’s a quiz tomorrow or something. who knows…And yes, i’m procrastinating.
Except now i’m off to start nano, because that’s the highest prority (of course)

i’m a MOFYO
13-you mean like y=mx+b and all that? i have a vague idea…meaning no, i fail at math. XD although i did get a 30/31 on the last test but that’s because it was uber-easy and most people got more than that cuz of extra credit.
i can do point-slope though. yay for me! y-y1=m(x-x1), right? Do say yes, because if not it means i can’t do point-slope and that would make me sad.
still faced with the problem of writing story whilst missing half the notes. And i have to turn the notes in too. for points. so i can’t get higher than a B+. i think. possibly lower. And that’s if i have a good story. which i won’t.
lessee, what other than that? more FOOF, he thought my thesis was ok so that’s all good…the essay’s not due for ages anyway, we haven’t even finished the book. still have about half of my history notes…not bad seeing as usually on the day they’re supposed to be done i’ve only done about half anyway. so some of that to do…FOOF, story, notes, no science, math i can do during science…need to do my latin or i’ll like fail. haven’t done latin hw for like three days or so and i think i just failed the quiz. Meaning i put “wine soaked with honey” for three of the vocab words and didn’t know how to conjugate at all. declining, sure. conjugating, no.
nutte bade, nutte bade
i went to the ‘brary after skool to get a book for theater, since basically all i do is move a chair and splash billy (and then monica and i get to take the clothes up to the dryer in masy’s room and make up random secret handshakes. We slap hands, throw arms in the air and shout “it’s a test!” then wave them down and say “yes!” It’s a long story. anyhoo) but i was wandering around and almos is like “can i help you elizabeth?” and i was like “idk, i’m just looking for a random book.” and nolan’s like “random book? How about the next book club book!” so he gave me Frankenstein: Prodigal Son which is our January book. then i was like “now i’m going to have them all read months in advance and forget everything that happened!” and he was like “better than staying up all night the night before and then falling asleep” and i was like “true, true”

in November 15th, 2006 @ 22:03Gack. I felt like I was going to faint during Chem yesterday and couldn’t breath because all the air is recycled and therefore contains 3% oxygen. Managed to maintain conciousness and get notes, but I don’t understand any of them. Today some kid brought applesauce in because he broke the criss-cross-applesauce rule. (If you don’t criss cross, you buy applesauce for the whole class.) My english teacher totally dismisses my modestly brilliant answers, for example, someone will answer with 17 likes, 14 ums, and a vague answer, and she’ll clarify. When I say an enormously more intricate and well thought out answer, along the lines of “Because Scout grew up in a house where her main role models were mail and her best friends were male, she has a mentality in which being a “girl” is percieved as a bad thing. Psychologically, she has been raised under the immpression that “girl” is a derogatory term.” To which my english teacher responds with, “Thats the same thing [blank] was saying with the whole tomboy thing” I want to hit my head against the wall. GETTING BACK TO THE ACTUAL SUBJECT… Anyone know how to balance chemical equations and can explain in lamense terms? I need help!

in November 15th, 2006 @ 22:1613- That would be like slope? Maybe, if it’s below graphing-calculator level. Y=MX+B, M=slope, B= Y-intercept. If it’s below or possibly at ninth grade level, I might be able to help.
Finished HW before I went online, but now it’s late.

in November 16th, 2006 @ 16:2523-their lives sucked? how detailed an answer do you want? if you want extra practice you can do my history notes…*puppy dog eyes* because you know you want more practice.
actually i’m almost done w/them but whatev
A-what’re the european formulas? i won’t understand them anyway but i is be curious. and what’s that thing called grammar? and OMG speaking of which i failed the latin test, which was the same as the last test, which i also failed. of course. BLECH! i don’t understand it! ’tis sad!
I don’t have much tonight. science, history, math…i have to do the graph for the lab pretty soonish cuz leeny was kind of freaked that we didn’t get it done…she’s like a really good student that doesn’t enjoy procrastination. but she says she doesn’t know how to use excel. i’m like “how on earth not? it’s so easy” so anyway, must do that.
Oh in latin today doc said that the first done w/the test had to do something for him, and i was first done because i made it all up and then i went to get a drink and came back and was like “what did you need?” and he’s got the comp moniter just sort of looks at me and then goes “help me put this on the floor” so i do and by then alex is done so he turns to alex and says “can you get this hooked up?” so i go back to my seat wondering why he didn’t just ask me and then alex says no (don’t know why, it’s not hard, but i guess it looks a bit intimidating) and doc’s like “come on,” and they go back and forth for a bit so i was just like “ok doc what do you need?” and i sit down and they’re all colour-coded and all so i just plug everything in and he was sort of like “oh, ok, thanks”. Hmph! he didn’t think i could do it! betcha anything! but i did. And i discovered his mini fridge in the process. I asked if i could have a bagel for helping him but he said no. They were good bagels too, we get the same kind. Oh, and then he had a contest with josh to see who could whistle through their hands better. that was amusing.
anyhoo, off to do hw.

in November 16th, 2006 @ 16:42You could write about how your family’s traditions have evolved over the years and generations, as people have been born and moved around and raised families and died. What do you do? Where do you go? Who does what? What has stayed the same (home towns? recipes?). What has changed?
Every family celebrates Thanksgiving differently. For example, my father hated football, so we never watched it except when we were visiting cousins who watched it. My mother never liked to clean up right after big meals (she thought it spoiled the fun), so we always left dishes in the sink until the next day whenever we had Thanksgiving at home. Again, our cousins did things differently.

in November 16th, 2006 @ 21:0738- How do you get homework in homeroom?
I have a first year teacher for geometry. She has never taught before. She has some very interesting ideals, such as all homework is extra credit. This means that I never have to do my homework.

in November 17th, 2006 @ 16:05homework for homeroom? Homeroom is where you DO the hw. Even though you get like 5 min.
Not bad this weekend cuz of OSU (i swear, stupid obsessed buckeyes. although the lack of hw is the one thing about osu/u of m week i’m not complaining about
) like 4 math problems (long ones though), a bit of skience, and history.

in November 17th, 2006 @ 17:43We don’t have homeroom in our high school. We had it in 7th+8th grade but not this year. Hmm. I supose it’s okay because I have two study halls(we had to exempt out of gym for marching band, but now that part of band is over so we get another SH instead) so I have time to do almost all my HW anyway.
What’s really suprizing to me is that I actually understand grammer this year. DO,IO,PA,PN all that. O.o It’s the apocalypse! RUN!! But I did really badly on todays math quiz/test. it was supposed to be a quiz! Like 10 questions! Not a two-page thing for 60 points!I did really bad…*groan* There goes my B…at least it’s a weighted class. *sigh*

in November 18th, 2006 @ 09:1543 We only have homeroom when we get new schedules, have standardized testing *shudders* or when… um I don’t know. We don’t have homeroom a lot.
Guess what???!!!! For two, yes two, wonderful days I had no math homework!!!!!!! Amazing, if you’re in my algebra class. *happy happy happy!* Not only that, we are doing very simple equations!! (y=mx+b) Really, a question might be like: the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 5. Put it in slope intercept form. y=3x+5 ha ha!
Yes, I know that made no sense. I ‘m not awake enough to type.
I have,on average, about two hours of homework every day. It stinks. And next year when I’m in high school (where I plan to take as many ap classes as they let me) I’ll probably have more.
Darn it-I just realized that my partner and I will probably have to stay after school for my tech class. We have to finish some of the lessons, which would have been finished if *cough cough* the teacher didn’t talk for so darn long. See it’s fine that he talks for about 30 min. about colleges and career paths and all that, it’s just that then he expects us to get a lesson done in 20 min after he’s done talking! Each lesson takes about an hour, if you do it right. And he wants us to do a lesson a day. It’s impossible! :X

in November 18th, 2006 @ 14:19Yay. My first blog post. But anyways. I hate my health teacher. He gave an incredibly stupid and depressing assignment. We have to pretend that we died in an “alcohol-related car crash”, and that we are writing a letter to our parents from the “afterlife”, saying that we are sorry for drinking at a party and being an idiot and getting in a car with a drunk driver. THIS IS SO STUPID. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO IMAGINE A SITUATION LIKE THAT? Anybody have some advice?

in November 18th, 2006 @ 15:43well, which car had the drunk driver? Yours or the others? I suppose you could point out that it could have been worse- he could have been on a cell phone (there’s been multiple studies that show that talking on a cell phone while driving is actually _worse_ than driving drunk), although that wouldn’t exactly sooth a grieving parent.. and that you’ve discovered that the afterlife isn’t all it’s hyped up to be, and you really think they’d be better getting in their kicks while they’re alive..
or something.

in November 18th, 2006 @ 15:5246: You guys have health teachers? People who tell you how to stay healthy? wtf??? In any case, you could ask your parents to be active against alcoholism. Also mention how you met Jesus in the afterlife and he’s actually chinese. Or something like that. Or maybe invent a whole story beginning with an abuse-induced booze trip ending with alcoholism. Or maybe the drunk driver was Mel Gibson and you can say he’s sorry for hating jews.

in November 18th, 2006 @ 16:3448-yeah, it’s pretty sad. you take health for like four years to get “the talk” four separate times-and then your parents do it like three more times anyway. and some people don’t get the message anyway, so what’s the point? it’s as pointless as gym. Like seriously, who actually exercises in gym? Nobody, that’s who. Except the jocks who ALREADY exercise all the time.

in November 18th, 2006 @ 17:5546- well, you could say that now you understand why they have those laws. Tell your parrents to tell everyone they can not to drink and to show people the letter. Say something all sad and all like, “I had so many plans to help people in my life, and now it’s all ruined, all because of alcohol and drunk drivers. Oh, woe is me!” (you might want to leave out the ‘woe is me’ part, unless you want to be really corny)
almost forgot- pies with newbie pie!!!!!!!!!!
48- health teachers in my school are the people that wanted to be gym teachers, but weren’t good enough (that was a bad insult, no one get mad. Until this year, I have had an incredibly low opinion of gym teachers, they always pick favorites, the athletic and rich kids. All through middle school I always got a 93% which always brought my average down a couple points, if I tried hard or not.)

in November 19th, 2006 @ 00:16i dunno about the freshies in geometry, seeing as myself is in a program where almost all of the freshmen take geomtry so my class is almost all freshies. Also, I havn’t had homeroom since 6th grade-they got rid of it in middle school after i went for a year and we have block schedule. sigh. block. forever to adjust to but i not for that i would have a ginourmous backpack. so
now to complain. i have a chock full schedule from zero period @ 6:45 ish to 7th period which some people don’t even have. that is what i get for being an over achiever. you get soooooo much more homework in high school. ok. that was a total lie. some people say that and i look @ them with disgust and wonder about their prior education. funny thing-my sister is in 6th grade and is learning the exact same thing in science as i am, only she doesn’t believe anything not in the same chapter in the textbook is related, leading to some interesting arguments. sigh. i don’t like the amount of semi-busiwork our government teacher gives us. sigh. because i don’t have any passionate feelings about government or anything. so even though i have the highest grade in the class, half the time i’m bored out of my wits. but hey, my geomerty teacher is soooooooooooooo funny!!!!!! i love that class. also, jazz is fun. our teacher is really good. i started bass trombone this year, and went from utter nothingness to knowing all my major scales to a certain degree in less than 3 months! i am very excited. my science (earth science) is interesting, but the teacher goes very fast and furious and actually expects you to be a student. it is intense. but i find it hard to dislike her because she is a nice person and i find science interesting. what else do i take? weelllll…. i mean pues……….. spanish 1-2, dance, english, and o-p symphonic winds, where i play the euphonium. english-anyone else recently read Great Expectations and write a million paragraphs, essays, and short answers on it, as well astake an 80 question final test? oh, and a timed essay? yeah. anyone read “The Lottery” a short story recently. a bizzarre & disturbing story. but all of the stories in that textbook are. soooooooo yeah. i guess that is enough complaining for now. sufficient to say i have alot of homework. although one thing that lends to my program’s reputation of lots and lots of hw is that people in it are usually rather overachieving perfectionists, extremely inteligent and obnoxiously smart (not bragging-truth, ask any teacher there), and involved in about a million activities. leading to a vicious schedule. my thing right now is “the nutcrakcer” for ballet, which takes up mucho time. so really i’m exhausted i ahould be doing hw now. but i just took an hour & 1/2 nap. so i think i will go to bed

in November 19th, 2006 @ 09:54Hm. Homework. If I didn’t have braces I would ask everyone how they blew bubbles, because I would have to be able to for our science experiment. I CAN’T DO IT. I just can’t. I’ve tried for literally years, and I can’t do it. But I haven’t had much time to try, because I don’t chew it very often. Oh well.

in November 19th, 2006 @ 10:0053- I’m in 6th grade and we don’t have as much HW as i was expecting, but it’s really starting. I have eight paragraphs to write for tomorrow. I have a tight schedule, too. Monday-piano. Tuesday-french. Wednesday-italian. Thursday-french. Friday-modern dance. Saturday-art for 2 hours (observational drawing), italian, rehearsals for my dance performance in january, would have tennis but it’s too cold.
That’s just outside of school. I’m also in the middle school play, which takes up TIME. then there’s HW and practicing the piano and cello. ARGHHH!!!!!!

in November 19th, 2006 @ 14:44Ok, I understand that everybody probably skipped my post. So, my question was, can anyone explain balancing chemical formulas? It makes no sense to me that you have to balance one side to equal the other side AND balance the first side! I can’t remember what numbers where mean what. Extremely confusing and my chem teacher insists that it’s not her fault but ours, even though I believe ample evidence, including over half the class failing the quiz, lays the blame on her.

in November 19th, 2006 @ 20:2653- Welll, some fresies take geomitry at our school too, because they can’t all be in Algebra II(although some are in Algebra I. How thay managed that, I don’tt know) but me and about 17 other people are a year ahead in math for our grade. We took A-I in 7th, and A-II in 8th. So technicly I’m in Honors Geo, which you can only be in if you’ve taken A-II or are currently taking it.
Lesse, my schedual…(did I spell that right? I have trouble with that word). Pretty busy.
Monday- Free somtimes, also includes book club and the ocasional flute lesson
Tuesday- Hockey practice from 8-9(We leave home around 7, back home around 10)
Wednesday-Hockey from 6-7(leave 4:40), dryland for an hour(arobics, pushups, sit-ups, ect.) home around 9
Thursday- Flute lesson
Friday- FREE
Saturday- Hockey game/practice, varying times. Dryland first, usually rinning+stairs
Sunday- Practice, 8:00 amSunday mornings are the worst… but dryland is hard too. Example of our last dryland on Saturday-
run a quick warm-up mile, 8 minutes
stairs for 15 min. straigt(sprinting, no breaks)
quick stretch
5o pushups and 100 sit-upsWhat I really hate is that everyone but 6 or 7 of us cheets and only runs around 9 laps instead of 12 for the mile, and cheet on the sit-ups and pushups. Grr.

I have time to hang out with friends, join clubs, get a job, take seminars etc. Really, especially once you get into highschool, having an open schedule seems to be more fun. My over-scheduled friends never have time to go to fun things and they’re always frantically running around.

in November 22nd, 2006 @ 13:18Why is that green? When I drag my mouse over it it says mail to d at *#. What happened?
[Because the string of characters contains “@”, WordPress thinks it’s an e-mail address and generates a clickable link. Clickable links are green. (In fact, that’s what the green color is really supposed to be for. All the tricks for turning text green are just ways of fooling into WordPress into making a link to nowhere. That’s confusing, and GAPAs don’t like it, but there’s little we can do about it.) –Robert]

But anyway, you can do so much more with bows than pizzacato, and get so many more different effects..

in November 24th, 2006 @ 16:21Hi. i’m a newbie. This is my first post. Woot.
You people are all talking about taking geometry as freshies. And i’m taking geometry in the eighth grade! My teacher is really weird. He thinks he’s funny but he’s not. He says stuff like, “What did the acorn say when it grew up? Gee, I’m a tree!” Get it? My friends are really slow about that stuff. Oh well. At least he didnt’ give us any hw.
I play viola. And i’m good at pizz even tho we don’t do it very much. i’m trying to learn vibrato right now and my book has this exercise where you have to pluck with your 4th finger on your left hand and that’s hard. Kind of. And my friend is trying to teach me how to play harp and i’m terrible. even tho i play piano. Nice.

question- my algebra teacher didn’t teach us the standard equation for a line (he tought y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y intercept. but i think it s supposed to be something different. what is it?)

in November 26th, 2006 @ 20:50that’s slope-intercept, isn’t it? standard’s something like ax=something something idk. I never use that one, it confuses me and i can never remember it. but slope-intercept works for those types of q’s.
there’s also point-slope, which is y-y1=x(x-x1) or something, i don’t remember. i’m half asleep right now. and not particularly good at math. But they all work.

My math teacher loooooves standard form. I like point-slope. Gar.
I seriously need to register for the SATs. And maybe a few subject tests. Hoopy stuff like Chem.
I am determined to get a perfect or near-perfect math score this year. Screw critical reading.
Last year, I got a 1980. With a 700 in math and 600-somethings in the other two sections. Not bad, but I’m aiming for much improvement.

Today we looked at three different rocks with fossils in them with a group, we took notes, drew pictures, drew more pictures, looked them up in a reference table, took more notes… we spent almost an hour at this, then during the last 5 minutes, we got pieces of paper and the teacher said, “Now I want you to tell me the coolest difference you noticed in two of the rocks you saw! You need to fill up the whole paper, front and back” Everyone starts grumblng and all, then someone said, “but seriously, there was nothing cool about this whole lesson” Everyone laughed and she got so mad! Anyway, that was the highlight of my very boring day. The End.
