Seriously, my senior class schedule has some conflicts? It's not fair, lemme tell ya. A Capella (choir), AP Music Theory and AP Language are only 3rd and 4th apparently. Cue the tears, really. So what if I'm not going into music and don't really need to take the class--but it would look good to have another AP score lying around, ne?
Wait.
Back up.
senior class schedule?!!@#!#W
Where did all that time go? I remember moving out to the county just before 8th grade ended and thinking later on my first day at Lindbergh "Oh my god, four more years at a new school--cannot handle it!!" It's so long when you start, but then you get to then and it's like, "Rewind, what just happened?" So many things have changed, y'know? I don't look the same! I've changed my hair a couple times (every time I get it touched up I have it styled differently, too...). Pretty much clear face (seriously good), and people tell me I'm pretty/sexy/hot/other strange stuff on a regular basis. Some guy was hitting on me two weekends ago at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. That was awkward. Hey, my grades are even presentable now! I'm disappointed in myself for not doing as well as I'm obviously capable (i.e. passing) in my freshman and sophomore years, but, past is past. I can only look forward and do better. Hey, I still have a boyfriend! Aw, but he's graduating... Yeah, I'm still going out with the same guy. Going on eight months, in May. I don't know what's going to happen when this year (and summer) ends. It depends on where he ends up going to college, maybe.
I got a new desk recently. I think it's kinda cool; it's glass and metal and cherry wood. Odd combination, but I like it. Actually, I broke my old one (thank god!!!) on accident over spring break. I have to pay my dad back for the new one (and my ipod, but that's to my mom. did I mention the ipod?), but it was only $84, so it's not too bad.
ipod=absolute joy in my pocket. All my music and no boring, frustrated hours of silence make Rachel a happy girl. You cannot possible imagine how happy I was to get one, finally. At first it didn't sink in. I'd be at my mom's, where I was usually forced to drag my CDs so I'd have something to listen to and I think, "Ugh, stuck here again with all my music at home." Pause. "omg i r have ipod!!!!!!!!" The first few times I was so happy I could feel it. Seriously. Little tingle. Zing. Self-actualization. (<-- actually, I think it really may have been self-actualization...cool.)
But I'm neglecting my French studying. (Hey, I have Japanese lessons every week now, too~! My tutor is really nice. Her name is Shizumi. ^_^ I also have an email pal named Rina.)
Oh, one last thing. So, the schedule conflict? It may not be a problem. Instead of taking AP Language, my mom thinks I should do dual enrollment and take English 101 or 102 (she thinks I could test into 102). That way, I'd be able to take A Capella, AP Music Theory, and maybe Sociology/Clothing 2 (semester classes). Plus...*groan*...Chemistry because my mom'll call the guidance department if I don't. -_-|||||
Does anyone have any idea what they say in the middle of Godzilla (Blue Oyster Cult)? It some Japanese that I can't make out and it bugs me. *grumble*
Anyway, that's how I'm doing. Hi ya'll. Deafening silence.
