Well...the last week has been pretty uneventful.....I dropped my 0 cuz it was killing me and im a baby so i cant wake up thaat early....especially when laker season rolls around...and i also dropped ap art. So now i go 1-6 for first semester but i'll have no 5th second. So i guess this was the best possibly scenario for me overall....
I MIGHT BE GETTING A NEW TRUCK NOW! lol, yes that would be my 3rd brand new car of the yr, after first having a dodge dakota last august, and now a 2002 civic......but it's not like spoiled thing, cuz my mom approached me cuz she doesnt kno if she feels safe with me in such a small car anymore. The visibility in civics suck tho! I like the car a lot, it's kinda a Jeff car. So i might be getting a new tacoma or frontier or something.....we're gunna go to a dealer and check em out this week. If i dont do that tho i think we're gunna get like seat covers cuz i hate the pattern on the seats i have now...we'll get some cheap leather simulation seats so that'll be cool and then also no matter what, a lakers license frame/custom plate.
Um, I've kinda been getting a lot of hw, especially from math. It sux.....! My new econ teacher is Mr. Chen and he's this lil rat tatty bald chinese man....and he's really strange and hard to understand. I dont get it yet. He's so weird. But the class is a frickin breeze so ill get over it. Art is boring now cuz im in an actual PAINTING class, not indep. study like i was doing 2nd period. So im with all the weird freshmen morons....and i dont kno a single soul in there lol. it's pretty sad. I like my math teacher, Ms. Atkins, but she's a crappy teacher. All she does is write notes on the board. Sux. I want godette back so bad! Um, I have decided to forgive willet for being a witch the first day of school to me haha.....i like her now tho. She talks incessantly tho, which is great cuz the period's over like that. The class may be kinda hard tho, i dunno yet. And Spanish is well, spanish. Same old same old tubby and im with everyone i kno so it's a lot of fun. I really am starting to like newspaper too. At first i wasn't sure but now nuz is really cool and we're gunna have a really good paper...i designed a T made up of college logos for center and it came out all cool lookin, better than i expected. Yah, I still have all my hw to do today tho...eek...like 3 hours worth :-( I'm gunna do it in a lil bit and then go get a haircut cuz my hair is frickin long right now.
I met with a counselor at the college and career center on wednesday....im meeting with her again this week. We went over my essays in detail.....and one of em, thankfully it was my really long one, was excellent. But my other 2 were too similar so i'm rewriting em with all new topics....im gunna do that today also. We also went over my college choices/options and finalized my app list....i'm now applying to...(in order of where i wanna go most)
1) USC
2) Northwestern
3) UCLA
4) Univ Colorado
5) Arizona State
6) Arizona
7) NYU
8) Chapman
Now, northwestern and ucla are pretty much gunna be rejections...but if i can pull off a 30 on my act, and a huge huge improvement on my sat 2's then who knows, i'd at least be in the ballpark for northwestern.....ucla doesnt even have journalism tho, but they have enough related stuff that i could do it there if i wanted. So this wekk im starting my massive studying for the ACt on the 27th....im probley gunna do it with bliss cuz we did over the summer. Um, she told me USC was a really good fit for me tho.......all around, and that i should probley be able to get in, so that was somewhat reassuring...that's the only school i really REALLY wanna go to. But i now feel like i have some attractive backups that i would actually like going to. I kno ariz state, ariz and colorado are like in the top 5 party schools in the nation, but that doesnt bother me....cuz as Heather (counselor) said....i need to be looking more at how strong the journalism school AND big college sports presence than the university's rep itself. And i am totally comfortable with arizona as a whole....cuz i've been there a kagillion times and colorado is also sweet. NYU is just there...for the pure heck of it....Chapman in case i randomly decide to change my major to film...and they have the best film school....well second to USC. I'm gunna wait to fill out all my apps till AFTER my ACT scores come back......since i havent taken it before.
Ok, um what else has been going lately...hmm....o the whole issue with Katrina. I had lunch with Molly and Bliss last week at baja fresh to discuss what we should be doing about her, then we met with her on thursday i think it was afterschool at starbucks in rsm to talk with katrina. After 3 hours of "intense negotiating" we got her to agree to go to a special hospital place for depression/eating disorders. Molly and i looked some up that were local and they seemed really good. On fridya during tutorial, bliss and molly went into ms. stillwell....the psychology teacher at tesoro...and talked with her about it. And then katrina randomly agreed to go talk to stilwell friday afterschool which is strange cuz she wouldnt even talk to the 3 of us. So molly, bliss and i ended up staying there for over an hour afterschool waiting for katrina to come out and it was really good cuz she really opened up to stilwell....and we all agreed not to tell katrina's parents about her wanting to go to a hospital until we talk with her more. Katrina's meeting with stillwell again on monday during lunch...and so molly and bliss r gunna talk to her also. But this is a major breakthru cuz katrina is ACTUALLY opening up to someone, and not even her own shrink that her parents PAY for...so good news for now on that front.
O wow, on friday after all that went down....i drove away from school and i somehow left my backpack AT SCHOOL lol....so bliss was following me home and i get home and im all where the freakin heck is my backpack and i started to panic...so i go back to school with bliss and thank god it was still there in the same spot. Wow im a frickin retard space case. haha....it was funny tho....i got a lil psycho with bliss tho...when i was panicking...cuz i had my license, wallet, books, hw...everything....so it would sucked but phewwww
Wow, that was a long entry. It's so sooooo hot today! For the 4th day in a row, it's like 100 here...ridiculus...it's hotter now than it was all summer i think. I'm tired after being incredibly hyper and anti-tired last nite. My stupid lil bro woke me up at like 7:30 after going to bed at 2....eeeeeek. Blah my dad's evil gf is here right now. :-( We actually got along lats nite tho for once, truly amazing. I feel kinda bad tho cuz i havent been paying much attentiont o my angels lately. :-/ im feelin a lil guilty. I really wanted to go to the doubleheader yesterdat at the Ed but it didnt work out. booo. Alright, enough. I wrote a poem today about the lakers which is now in my profile...well the edited version anyway lol...hahaha. I was bored. Bye.
