Moon Festival

September 26, 2007

Yeah, so today’s the moon festival, I guess, or yesterday, as it were, since its past 12 and all. Family came over for dinner, and I decided to take a nap while they ate because I was fuck tired. We have like I think 4 tins of moon cake. I think that’s a lot, though I don’t remember the number from previous years. The moon was hella bright when I woke, it lit up the backside of the house O_O.

So, today, the Current Events room got usurped by the San Leandro Association of Mahjong (wow that’s fucking official there), which kinda sucks, since no one knows about us and our room and time got usurped. That’s pretty much as low as you can go…I think. I went along with it, since I want to be in the Mahjong club, so yeah. So now it’s been moved to Monday, though it’s not like many people care…this really sucks.

I had to rewrite a Timed Writing last night. She couldn’t read my handwriting. Oh god English is going to horrible. And it was still shit after I completely started a new one pretty much. Seriously, I really think this is all overanalysis, maybe, just maybe, the author was trying to write a story for the hell of it. But of course there’s more crap behind it. Bleh.

And then there’s that news report about how sleep deprivation AND oversleeping is horrible for heart health and will shorten life and crap. Boy am I screwed…

Before I Go Back to Work

September 24, 2007

So, it’s been pretty good, I guess. I’m one of three (I think, maybe my hearing is going? I’m pretty sure of it) people who got some sort of recognition for doing somewhat well on the PSAT. But not well enough to get the money for college. Pity, all I get is a rectangle of paper with something on the back saying “You did good, but not good enough!” Oh well, I’m sure it amounts to some sort of credit for college.

In other news, I seem to be the only unaware of my ascension to the post of secretary for CSF until around this moment. My speech was along the lines of “Hi everybody, my name is Gary, I’ve been in the club since freshman year, I don’t know a single shit about this shit, so vote for me!”, so damn, I must be lucky or something. I still don’t know a single shit though. This is going to be great, man.

Listening to: SoundTeMP-Supercooled Girl, from the Granado Espada OST. I REALLY like this song, that I do.

You know, I accidentally pushed publish before I thought of this shitty ass title

September 20, 2007

Today has been an alright day. We had a sub for English that allowed us to listen to music, I read 1984. That book I can actually read without getting bored at, although I did fall asleep a bit, but I am pretty damn tired. Last night was horrible. I went to take a nap at 1 for around 20 minutes, although I hadn’t finished my biology outlines, woke up, still felt tired, so I decided to sleep till 2. Decided I was still tired, continued to sleep. Then the alarm clock started waking me around every 10 minutes or so (I don’t know, I’m half asleep) so I kept getting up to shut the damn thing up. I think I kept on pressing snooze instead of the power button. I have no idea what the fuck happened, but I decided to just go to sleep.

Physiology today was good. We did a skit on some skin disease. We got boils. So I got to be the patient, they used a large green balloon marked “boil” since we didn’t have anything else more realistic. I had a large green balloon attached to the side of my face for a good while, which isn’t exactly the most comfortable, but it was a humourous situation. I almost said “shit” in front of the teacher lol. I curse a bit too much, we were doing it improv, so that wasn’t too good. It was funny though. I enjoyed it a lot.

The other classes were rather uneventful, but recycling there was a rather poor turnout. Five people, even though it’s a early out day *sigh*. Two of our number had some unknown important crap to attend to, and one of our number wasn’t feeling well, to whom I wish a most hasty recovery. Everyone’s going to start getting sick though…

D&D was good today, even though I have a shitload of crap to do. I killed a wolf in one shot with a crossbow. I feel accomplished. We had cans of Vault. Energy drink my ass, I’m still tired as hell, either Vault isn’t a great energy drink or I’m numb to caffeine’s effects. I even ate a chocolate donut and a good amount of those tube wafers that are teh awsumz. Plenty of teeth-corroding sugar there. Still don’t feel anything. Oh well.

I’m going to go off now and finish my biology outlines and economy work. Then…personal statement. T_T

Looks like a green balloon, don’t it? It’s actually a boil. You can tell by the big words written on it, “boil”.

Work work work

September 15, 2007

So much work, I barely have time to sleep. I suppose it’s due to my own negligence of work until is a bit too late, but bleh. Bio’s not too bad, econ is the annoying bitch it has been for the last month or so, physiology is adding on some work, but it seems to be english that’s piling it on. Goddammit. The Stranger has made complete sense on a literal level; I understand what happens, when it happens, etc. But the analysis and all that deep crap, @_@ I fail at analysis. Absolutely horrible. My eyes have been hurting like hell. Not as bad as that time my eye bled though, that was horrible, don’t know why it did, but it couldn’t have been good.

Smart has been a horrible teacher. I have a B in her class, but that’s my fault for doing poorly on that 2nd test, though that circular flow model crap was confusing as hell. She is really nitpicky though, and her answers are really stupid. Everyone, or near it, got a question on the pop quiz (immature git) wrong due her idiocy. It was about demand: what is not essential to demand: a. a desire for the product, b. producers to produce a product, c. a willingness to buy product, or d. an ability to buy product. The book defines demand as the desire, ability, and willingness to buy product, so obviously it should be b. But the git says a. Producers are of course not needed for demand; there could be no producers of Coca Cola left after a nuking of the world, but the last survivor can still have demand for it. It could have never existed, the more imaginative people could think “hmm I want me some sweet bubbly dark colored drink….” I’m going to do rather poorly on the AP Gov test, I’m sensing…

Fuckin Personal Statements

September 10, 2007

Really taking the mickey out of me. I can’t think of any good personal qualities, accomplishments, contributions, anything, for that second prompt. Everything of mine seems to be negative and bad and poor and a big failure. Everyone else has some talent, something they’re strongly dedicated to, I don’t. I’ve nothing. I don’t see how I’m going to get to college on this…

Listening to: Hans Zimmer-Wheel of Fortune, from the Pirates of the Carribbean: Dead Man’s Chest Soundtrack. My music is the only thing good right now.

Not yet, at least

September 8, 2007

This week has ended up A LOT better than last week. Much better. Nothing too catastrophic of a loss besides my loss of sleep and fumbling up various questions. Seminar on Crime and Punishment was horrible, I did an absolutely abysmal job of bullshitting there, did not properly revise my essay on the book since I ran out of time, but the week was not as bad, it seems. Not too many things of a physical nature bothering me, I suppose. Haven’t had much time to play games sadly, though I’ve been able to deal with that. Somehow still procrastinating though, by reading articles and webcomics and other things *facepalm*.

For English, we’re going to start The Stranger by Albert Camus. It’s amazingly short…so there obviously is a catch. How exciting…the other classes have been easy going, but TEDIOUS! Lots of work, but the ideas aren’t too hard to grasp. Physiology has been annoying, since while the teacher isn’t Collamer, Holcombe is much like a Collamer Jr. – he assigns the stuff Collamer’s typed out for his classes. What we have is a somewhat more charismatic and younger person teaching us…

You know, the people I know all seem to drift away from me…

Could this get any worse?

September 3, 2007

So the end of the school week rounded out poorly, I got a nosebleed in English, fucked up my essay on Crime and Punishment, which seemed way too short and shitty, found out i got 40 something questions right of 60 something questions done of a total of a 100 solid questions, which is really poor, haven’t nearly gotten enough sleep, and was basically another day in the crapper. Not to mention a boil or something in an extremely inconveniencing position making my sitting and walking a pain in the ass, or as it were, near the ass. Bleh. Only good thing it seems would be sleeping from 5pm to 8am Friday afterschol, which was awesome. Yesterday I had to deal with relatives, and today, homework. Senior year has started out crappily, I can only hope it gets better, though I don’t think I’ve gotten to the point where there is no worse it can get, so…bleh…
