@xNotUnderstood:

lol!! i bet they do, when finals are so close XD they're keeping track of everyone so you pass and don't come back to bug them!

@jikosangel:

well now in the school year...they know if we skip XD

@xNotUnderstood:

lol! yes, it is good to learn what you need to know, but i think skipping once or twice a year is acceptable. just don't make a habit of it! your grades will mean something soon :D very glad to hear you changed your wicked ways!! XD

@jikosangel:

well i skipped my Keyboarding class and he skipped his wellness class. but we stopped skipping classes now that we realized how important they were

@xNotUnderstood:

haha as long as it's not important :D i mean, if it's like gym or somethng, there's no real reason to be there XD just focus on the grades that will mean something in college, and you're good to go!

@jikosangel:

lol ur so evil >w>!! like we would skip or 7th period classes and just hang out side and stuff

@xNotUnderstood:

LOL YESSSS someone called me evil! that never happens >.> I only ever skipped study hall in high school, and even then, it was only twice, when i was emotionally unstable and needed my bestfriend. don't skip too many classes! but once in a while it's good to get outta the routine and feel like a badass XD

@jikosangel:

lol ur so evil >3

when i started my 9th grade year me and som friends skipped classes sometimes

@xNotUnderstood:

XD this is about the extent of my rebellion: i skipped my evil math class (signed up for a class below my level by accident) and my lit class (wasn't gonna be allowed in w/o the book, anyway) a week ago to chill with my best friend who I never ever see. i had a great time!!

and hahaha we all need those moments, so that we can feel badass and enjoy being ourselves. otherwise, we get so stuck in the usual routine that we get fed up with our normal life. and who wants that??

@jikosangel:

ah, well have fun OwO
i rebel a lot XD

@xNotUnderstood:

XD lucky! i'm only checking things while skipping math class to finish a project for lit >.< and rebellion is good in moderate doses. we all need our chance. i had a few moments in my day

@jikosangel:

lol im always on. Time to rebel XD

@xNotUnderstood:

haha hey there! you're online :D and definitely, we all have to take a turn causing trouble and getting it out of our system! otherwise it'll be bad. so if you're a troublemaker right now, that's totally ok!

@jikosangel:

lol exactly!!

@xNotUnderstood:

lol that's not necessarily a bad thing! we all have to cause some trouble sometimes.

@jikosangel:

i am a very nice and kind person, but once i show more of myself, im a trouble maker XD

@xNotUnderstood:

^_____^ good!! that's always nice to hear, especially when you're used to being compared. i think you're super kind and friendly, so i don't see how you could ever be the "bad sister" or even the less impressive one! keep being great, and people will see you for your amazing self soon!

@jikosangel:

thats what i think. but sometimes im told "i like you more than your sister. Your Funnier" XD

@xNotUnderstood:

haha yeah for some reason people think it's normal to compare us to our siblings. but you know, just cuz we're related doesn't mean we'll be similar. and even if you're "worse" than her according to the people around you right now, that doesn't mean you're bad, or troublesome, or that you're not as good. it's just that you're different, and that will be good later. i promise!

@jikosangel:

well people compare me to my sister all the time. then they get know me...yeah im worst then my sister XD

@xNotUnderstood:

haha well that's to be expected. in a family, there are no matching personalities. one is calm and one is not. and a million other comparisons. that is the pain of having a sister, ne? i may have gotten all the "good" comparisons compared to my sister, but that didn't pay off until after i left home, honestly. even as the smart one, the kind one, the friendly one, it did me little good at home until i moved out. so hang in there! comparisons are usually not as important as we think they are <3

@jikosangel:

i get in trouble a lot. im not as calm and sweet as my sister XD

@xNotUnderstood:

haha rebellious? in what ways? and it is good to have some rebelliousness, and to get it out young so you can lean on your parents when you get outta high school and actually need them lol!

@jikosangel:

lole im good but rebellious XD! i hope it does

@xNotUnderstood:

awww you're such a good kid ^___^ keep working hard, sweetie, and it will totally pay off one day!

@jikosangel:

yes, i will remember that as well ^w^

@xNotUnderstood:

haha thanks, sweetie! i hope you do really well :D just remember that the ACTs are for YOU, proof of your intelligence among peers, and a tribute to all your hard work and studying!

@jikosangel:

when i take the ACT in my Junior year, i will differently be thinking about u ^^

@xNotUnderstood:

sounds like a perfect plan!! watch you go and get a 20-something and impress them all :D if you can manage that well in school, you'll do just fine! (oh and take the extra writing portion, it gives you extra 12 points to work with compared to others. some places it's mandatory but others it's an option, so take it!) goood luuuuck!!!

@jikosangel:

yeah i get good grades if i understand what we were learning. like in my english class i got a 100 on my first exam cuz i remembered all the stores we read and stuff. though i will try my best on the ACT :3

@xNotUnderstood:

but do you still get good grades? cuz as bad as it is to freak out and scare yourself, as long as the grade is good in the end, it doesn't really matter, right? just do your best, and i'm sure you'll get a good score. 20 is pretty average, so don't feel like you have to do much more. a 25 is pretty great, and anything above that is amazing. don't stress it! besides, college wise, your GPA is what counts. ACT score is more for personal knowledge- where you stand against everyone else in the country, intelligence-wise :D

@jikosangel:

im a good student, and i listen and all to the teacher. but when i take tests i kinda start to panic and freak out

@xNotUnderstood:

ahh, don't! if you're good at tests then it's no sweat. and even if you're not, if you've learned most of what you're supposed to learn during high school, then you'll get a good score. only stupid people who don't pay attention and care about school get bad grades.

@jikosangel:

Im scared about the ACT's O_O;

@xNotUnderstood:

ahh, don't sweat it yet, honey! you haven't learned half of what you're supposed to take away from high school yet, so you can't beat yourself up til graduation at least! besides, ACTs are the real show of intelligence- GPA is just your overall behavior and menial work ("homework" and participation), not your intelligence!

@jikosangel:

lol i will try that. my mom tells me thats a really good thing. but then seeing my mom and sisters GPA i feel like a moron -__-

@xNotUnderstood:

if you're giving it 80% effort or more, that is fantastic! and a 3.3 is pretty good, sweetie! some kids can't even reach that, and others don't even try til it's too late. so to have a 3.3 in your freshman year of HS is pretty good!! keep up the good work ^_____^ it will totally pay off later!

@jikosangel:

yeah i know. i work my best in my classes and try to accomplish great grades in my academic classes. like my GPA is 3.3.... thats not all that great really

@xNotUnderstood:

haha "hopefully"? no excuses! hw is a pain, but getting a god GPA is gonna mean something to you in a couple of years, darling! don't have to do all of it, but the classes that count, try to keep up on, you know? i swear, life would be a lot easier if i could go back and tell myself to focus on the important classes.

@jikosangel:

it is O_o. i will get it done...hopefully XD

@xNotUnderstood:

....that is too weird!! wow. and heyy enjoy your weekend! get your homework done then you can chill.

@jikosangel:

i will keep it in mind ^^. did u know turtles can breath through their butt?? XD

yes, off for the weekend...though i still have homework from school -____-

@xNotUnderstood:

haha good! and just keep it in mind! scholarships are gonna be handy as heck in a couple of years, i promise. keep collecting random facts!

and heey done with school and off for the weekend, huh? that's always nice ^____^

@jikosangel:

lol i already know useless and random facts XD. and im only a freshmen so i dont need it yet, thanks though ^^

for me, i had a busy day at school but now im home...and i wanna nap XD

@xNotUnderstood:

it comes in handy, knowing things :D oh! there's some sort of "random facts" knowledge scholarship i saw the other day...only for high school kids going into college. you should look for it! :D

and i'm glad to hear you're having a good day! i got most of the house cleaned, and so far 3 pages more done on my book, so pretty good so far.

@jikosangel:

yes exactly!! i usually always have something logical or a fact to say XD. im having a good day, we finally have great weather =w=!! im glad ur day is good ^^

@xNotUnderstood:

EXACTLY! they can't bug you after that XD facts = safety!! always have a fact available and they will stop bothering hehe. are you having a good day, understood-chan?? i'm having an ok day, but enjoying the sunshine :D

@jikosangel:

hahaha i agree all the way XD!! then my friends will think and go "....NASTY!"

@xNotUnderstood:

XD good point, good point! who wants to drink ocean water by accident when that's where all the ocean animals go to the bathroom?? i mean, that's just gross!!

@jikosangel:

we're all crazy 8D!! "it unsafe and dirty D<! do u know how many animals go to the bath room in the ocean??" thats what i tell em

@xNotUnderstood:

XD glad i'm glad i'm not the only crazy one! people are like "but it's the ocean! go swim" and i'm like "noooo....i'm good" ^^;

@jikosangel:

gotta love it(same, feel as if i would get eaten)

@xNotUnderstood:

hahaha yes gotta love the idea of swimming with dolphins :D (i would never actually go into the sea/ocean. NOT SAFE!)

@jikosangel:

lol ches XD

they are pretty...and wet XD

@xNotUnderstood:

indeed they are!! nothing better than random fun convos ^__^

and yay!! glad that you like them :D they're such pretty animals, right??

@Yammi chan:

Awww thank you ^______^ i'm so glad you like it!! i'll get the whole thing up here somewhere once i finish it (7 pages down, now covers, and the other...20 pages to go!)
