This is the official school post...if any other posts come along on my LJ that say official school post...well, they aren't official...
1st Period : AP English Language
The teacher, Mrs.Richard, is incrediably cool...she was making cracks on Catholic schools like 10 minutes into class...she could be a freaking comedian...constantly cracking off jokes...the class seems as if it will be difficult...I guess it all depends if she likes the way I write or if I have to work at writing the way she wants
2nd Period : Hon French 4
The teacher, Mrs.Dillard, happened to be my 4th grade teacher...she was very mean then...not so much now...class seemed hard yesterday...but today didn't seem so bad...mostly speaking/listening...which I haven't done hardly at all...this makes me a bit apprehensive...but I need to get practice before AP...got an essay that will be assigned on Monday...ughh
3rd Period : AP US history
The teacher, Mr.Jobe, also happens to do YIG...and he is the coolest guy ever...approx. six foot eight he is a giant...he played Basketball for Wofford...he jokes a lot...incrediably knowledgeable...really cool guy
4th Period : Drivers Ed
The teacher, Mr.Dillard, is my french teachers husband...this class will be insanely boring/easy
5th Period : Spanish 1
Probably going to be able to exempt out...to 2nd year
6th Period : AP Economics Micro
The teacher, Mr.Woodfin, is a spitting image of Vicki Alvarez...no, not in looks...in the way he expresses himself while talking...he may even have more facial expressions while talking than Vicki...if anyone believes that...the class is insanely cool because it's a video linked class...he teaches two other classes at two other schools while he is teaching ours...video camera's and microphones everywhere...SO COOL
7th Period : Hon Physics
The teacher, Mr.Locke, will retire at the end of the year...he is pretty cool...strange though...he was shot down over Vietnam...wasn't taken prisoner...he has been teaching physics for ages...he also was a Summer Science instructor which I did 2 years ago...so I know him
Official outlook on this year : This year should be good...a challenge in some classes...but it's better than just coasting through...that's really boring...I'm hoping that taking offically 4 APs this year will look good for college...I will take even more next year...still has the same feel as last year...except new teachers...and new little kids...I do recognize I'm a junior but it really doesn't feel to much different...I've talked to like 20 people total in 2 days...kinda sad...I just don't really care about meeting some new people right now...or getting to know ones that I knew 2 years ago better...maybe later after I get in the swing of things in my classes...looking at probably 2-3 hours of homework/studying a night...I hope I'm over estimating but I guess time will tell...I forgot how good some of the sophmore girls looked...but I don't really think of them as anything more than "eye candy"...and before you girls out there jump on me about being sexist and such...it's because I that other girl...you know the one I can't seem to go a post without mentioning...well, anyway school will be interesting...gonna try to enjoy it more this year...we'll see how that goes
