(no subject)
The weeks have been going by very, very fast. Monday through Friday seems to happen in one moment. Weekends seem back to back, with a little in between. I don't know about everyone else, but my weeks have been flying by. My sister introduced a decent theory, a first if you can believe it. She said that because we're accustomed to high school and don't have to make a considerable transition (ie elementary school to middle school), our time passes over us without any hesitation. She said that, being a freshman, the week goes by at a considerably slower pace as compared to my week because of her transition from middle school to high school. This concept of time passing by is a subjective matter and probably varies for each individual, but her theory seems to make sense. Does it seem valid for you?
On another note, I have given up my 'boycott' on homecoming. I sacrificed it for the hope of having more fun. I'm going with Emily and a lot of other people, 18 in all is what the latest count is. I think it will be a better time overall than either last year's homecoming or the alternative (though i don't know what the alternative is for sure). I must admit i was committed to not going to homecoming at all, and when i told my friends in English class, i had 2 forces pulling me - The guys (Keith, Chewy, Mostrom, Oof) and some girls (Alisha and Compton). It was memorable, despite the event leaving me disconcerted and unsure. But, in the end, I gave up my homecoming pledge and reneged.
One thing that has left me furious is what happened in my Psych class. It's an online class, and I don't know why I'm taking another one of these nightmares, so naturally I hate it. I hate guessing on people's behaviors. I hate doing the stupid assignments that ask you to analyze someone's behaviors with next to no information provided. But above all, I hate that my teacher won't let me see my tests when I get a question wrong. That is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard. It may not seem like much to some, but to me it matters. My teacher's reason for not letting me see the test is "to protect the integrity of the questions and that the online course already gives you feedback." WHAT THE FUCK!!!! I actually would like to say that when I previously said teacher, i was wrong. Dead wrong. I don't have a teacher, i have a dumbass evaluating my work. Needless to say, I'm seriously considering dropping that class.
