…until i graduate from highschool. people who know me notice that i have a habit of keeping track of the number of days until we’re free from crystal…and im pretty sure it gets sort of annoying after awhile, but HEY w/e.
nevertheless, i am markedly excited for senior year. i mean, besides the fact that the administration is becoming something akin to the WWII Nazi regime (it’s a bad example…sorry), there are some things to look forward to.
but, on the subject of the school administration…first of all, they need to quit with the hypocrisy. they throw a bitchfit about declining admissions numbers and a community image of “oh-that-school-that-is-hella-nerdy-and-has-too-much-hw,” but then they deem it necessary to draw the reins in on school spirit and individual personality.
well, ok. we don’t get senior prank next year. that just gives me an amazing excuse to buy the most outrageous (risqué) costume imaginable to greet the new families (who were obviously so offended by spray-painted cars and caution-taped buildings and who i’m sure will absolutely adore my personal mode of expression).
really, though, this school has stopped surprising me. ive learned in the past months, that as long as you expect exactly what should not happen, you’ll always be on top of things. i’m not complaining though; karma has a way of coming back to you, and overall i’d say that this year has lead to quite a few unexpected changes. for example
- i’ve become more ‘open?’ – im only putting this because several people are convinced that i’ve broadened my world of interaction…i actually have no proof for this. but it’s still an outcome.
- im now ‘friends’ with at least two adults who happen to be on the very same administration (quelle horreur).
- i (this is the surprising one) ran for a position on student council (that’s surprising enough)…and won? that one still has a definitive kick to it. if i had asked my freshmen self if i thought i’d ever do something like that…i would have laughed. but like i said. karma exists. and i, in no way, have been properly repaid (and thanks to the essence of the matter, i never will be).
- i did an exchange in paris with a french girl. and i learned that despite being somewhat proficient in the language/accent in my own lovely apfrenchlang class, i ultimately fail. end of story. but in paris i did manage to start my own GL wardrobe. and that, in and of itself, is a dramatic change.
- harhar, i got my year on my license (four days ago), i.e., i can drive as fast as i want and not have to worry about going to court or seeing my insurance rate skyrocket.
im sure there are other things but HAHA i’m lazy. i wonder what i’ll be like as a second semester senior…well, i’ll definitely not care about APs so much. this year, i basically killed myself with the procrastination-study plan. but you know…one gets by…
btw, my schedule for next year (if things work) is:
AP Physics C
AP Bio
AP French Lit
AP BC Calc
AP English
…and then for fine arts….dance production and vicks chicks yaya
im really looking forward to senior projects. at the moment, im sort of brewing ideas and im stuck between doing something youtube related with a friend and learning how to make clothes (XD…not very original, i know, but it looks really fun/frustrating).
blahblahblah, im just ranting.
to finish off, my summer looks like dis:
-three weeks of being here
-one month at…MIT math/computer/physics program??
-rest of summer home + some ballet or i’ll totally forget how to dance (yeah right)
sounds exciting, right?
