So I thought last semester sucked. Apparently this semester is gonna suck by x40. 3 out of my 4 teachers are one year away from retiring. So you can expect what classes will be like - slow and dull. Except for Shapiro's class cause he's eccentric like crazy and scared the fuck out of me in class today. My English class went through 2 changes. On my original timetable I was supposed to have Martinez. They forced us into the mosh-pit that was the cafeteria this morning to pick up the school schedule which lists Wills as my new teacher. Then I get to the class and apparently my actual teacher is Ms. Nestor. Confusing much? Ms. Nestor is this very old, conservative South African woman. Which means I probably won't get away with any of my oddly profound, albeit somewhat disconcerting, papers on whatever it is that we do. Not to mention, she probably won't appreciate my gay poetry either. Times like this I actually miss Mr. Tsai (Gay poem? For me? Yay!).
My science teacher, Mrs. Brunkley has been teaching at Northview since BEFORE I WAS BORN. She can BARELY move. She makes Patterson look like a freaking pro athlete.
Drama teacher isn't that bad. But I usually hate my drama teachers (except Mrs. Speedman because her brother has connections [I mean - god forbid Scott actually got all those roles because he had talent ]). But Migliorre-Brennan was away today so Carla and I spent the entire class fangirling RENT. (I might actually start hanging out with her cause she fangirls nicely unlike Allysa and LeHanna [although LeHanna is good for the Lee Williams stuff]).
Shapiro - no complaints there. I love the man. I actually learned stuff in his class which is more than I can say for most of my other history teachers. (Well from Morgan - I learned that the Bay company are greedy bastards but thats a given considering how much things are in that department store).
But honestly - this is gonna be the semester of the suck.
