Time is Running Out
10 English classes, 11 History classes, 3 Career Exploration classes, and 3 chapels. That is all I have left of high school. That's it. That's 39 more hours of school. 39!! Or if I wanted to put it this way that's 2,340 more minutes of school....or 140,400 seconds of high school left. Personally I think that's 39 hours too many. But oh well. I'll live. So this week I have a long weekend because everyone else is going to a theme park on Friday but my sister and I opted out of going because, well quite frankly we don't want to spend an entire day with the idiots we go to school with. And then this coming Monday is the designated Senior Skip Day so I'm not showing up on Monday [which will probably end up with our English teacher being pissed because we're behind in English but, I don't really care]. After the four day week after senior skip day, we'll have four days left. And then GRADUATION. May 28, please come quickly. I just want to be done with high school. I've been told my entire high school career not to "rush it". But I'm sick of not rushing it. I just want to be done. I'm ready to be done. So bring it! 39 more hours. The countdown has begun...
Seventeen Ain't So Sweet....so that's why I traded it in for 18.
Eighteen years ago today I graced the world with my presence. [laughs] So I've had a good birthday so far. Any birthday is good when your mom lets you skip school to go shopping and out to lunch. I got some new books, some shoes, a pretty dress and got to eat lunch at my FAVOURITE Japanese restaurant. It's been a pretty awesome day. I am a legal adult now. I can vote and buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. Not that I would buy either of those, but I'm just sayin'; I could.
Tonight is my last ballet class...ever. I doubt I'll really continue dancing in college or any time thereafter. I might do it for a phys ed requirement for my major but when another alternative for phys ed is swordsmanship Lord of the Rings style, I'm thinking ditching ballet is a good idea. :D
Well it's official.
I'm a college student.
Just got done with Freshman Spring Orientation. I officially have my Student ID and have preregistered for fall classes!!! Holy crap, I'm in college. This is just plain awesome. I've had orientation events for the last two days and it's been amazing! I'm about to go try to figure out how to fill out my residence hall stuff and roommate application and then mess around in town for a little while. This is just so awesome. I'm so ready to be done with highschool. I have 22 days of high school left and I move into my dorms on August 28. I'm so excited!!!
"Son, when you grow up would you be the savior of the broken, the beaten and the damned."
This is it. I’m done. No more, I can’t stand it anymore. I’m so tired of being put down by my classmates every single day. We are currently in the process of planning prom, which is an inane ritual anyway, and every single time planning comes anywhere close to actually being fruitful we hit a wall because the morons I go to school with make it a point to be as contradictory and rude as humanly possible. My twin and I must be the only adults in this school because we're the only ones who are even remotely acting our age. Everyone else are juvenile cretins fueled by the desire to be as offensive as they can be. And I'm tired of it.
This morning, the debate came up about whether or not a certain homeschooler should be invited to attend our festivities. We usually extend the invitation to prom to the homeschoolers in the area that participate in our sports programs, however, the young lady in question did NOT play sports this year because she broke her leg. Supposedly. Let's rewind to back to the summer when I was discussing play sports with this girl. As I recall, she had no intentions whatsoever of playing sports. My sister corroborates this story. Anyways, fast forward to now and she suddenly says she wanted to play. I believe it's just to procure an invitation to our crappy prom. She can come as someone else's guest but I don't see inviting her on her own. Now, let's explore the issue further. There are two other girls who did not get a chance to participate in our sports teams because we didn't have a girl's basketball team this year. They had EVERY intention to play and were upset when the season was cancelled. Do we invite them? I hate to say it, but I say 'no'. I think we should have stuck to our guns to not let any homeschooler who did not play on our sports teams be invited. This upsets me because the two girls who really wanted to play ball are good friends of mine; but I have to look at the bigger picture here and see that we can't compromise our standards just because of this isolated incident. Again, these two girls can be invited by a person who is an eligible guest for prom and come without any issue. I feel that this would be a rather intelligent compromise to come to.
But no.
Pretty much every single one of my classmates, besides my sister, shot that idea to hell. The way they talked to me when I presented my opinion on the matter, you would think I'm an evil hateful bitch that doesn't want anyone to have fun. And, you know what, maybe I am; but I still don't see being rude and hateful to me when I presented my opinion eloquently and nicely. I didn't say that I hated these girls they couldn't come to this ridiculous prom. I said that I would love for them to come, but we shouldn't compromise our standards just for those three peope. But of course I got attacked. Because no one can stand intelligence. Or reason.
Whatever. I'm just done with it. I don't want to go to prom anyways, the only reason I'm going is because I already bought a dress and it seems a waste to just let the thing hang, unused, in my closet. I don't want a date, I don't want to dance, and I really don't want to eat what they've planned for the menu, so I'll put in an appearance and then come home. It makes me sad to think that I've become so apathetic about everything right now; but it's hard to be proactive when you meet so much opposition.
I feel like I've neglected this website...
Because I totally have. I've just been so busy that writing here seems to have taken a backseat to everything else. But I do have some stuff to say, so if anyone is interested, by all means, continue reading!
First off, I'm on Spring Break. THANK YOU GOD. I needed a break. [laughs] So I basically have been sleeping in and goofing off, went to go see Clash of the Titans last night. Which was awesome, you need to go see it. Sam Worthington kicked some major butt, and he did it in a short tunic. [swoons] I'm such loser...
Secondly, I definately need this break, because I've been working like a fiend at the library [Shut up, it's hard work at the library.] I have a PSA for anyone that has ever pulled a book off a shelf at a library: If you take it out of the shelf, remember where you got it and put it back in PROPERLY. PLEASE. Just do it, because my job essentially consists of reshelving books that morons don't put back properly and it's starting to drive me insane. kthnxbye.
Thirdly, I have 33 days of high school left. I've seriously started a countdown. 33 DAYS! How crazy is that! I go to college orientation at the end of this month, which is super wierd and I turn eighteen in exactly 1 month. I'm growing up. That's so bizarre. I don't think of myself as all that old, but I guess I am. I keep getting mistaken for somebody graduating from college and not high school. Pretty much all of the people from the library have asked if I'm graduating from the local college instead of one of the high schools. I don't think I look that old, but I guess I do. I think I look like I'm in middle school still, but that's probably just because I'm 5 foot and I'm as tall as a middleschooler. But I digress...
Fourthly, I don't really have a fourthly. I don't even think that's a word.
Anyways, so I hope all is well here on theO. I've sort of not been reading people's posts because I haven't really had time to come here. T^T But I have an entire week to lay around and stalk people here. [evil laugh]
