Pity Party Time

[miss_skippety]

Anyone remember my crazy French teacher? The one who kept changing the date of a test I had to do? 
Well she gave me that test back last week when I got back. I did pretty well, and I ended up putting it somewhere (read: throwing it out) because no matter what any teacher says, I will never use that test again. Once it's marked it's pretty much

That's trash.. Or at least when comparing it to some of my teachers. If they didn't record a grade, or lost it... Sure, they may ask for the test back, but that's usually right away--especially if they were just letting you view the grade. Most teachers try to give you the benefit of the doubt, excuse you, or at least let you retake it when it's their own incompetence that led to a mission grade.

Kinda interesting they're letting a student construct a presentation on female anatomy for boys. I guess they'll look over it. I hope you aren't the one presenting. That would be rather awkward. Interesting idea though, letting a female peer put together the whole thing though. Sorta lets them see it through the eyes of the beholder.

I sometimes get pestered to work. Not so much now. I only have a couple months left until I'm on my own. At the same time, my parents are well of -- they just want me to be responsible so I'm ready for college. You should try talking to yourself in the mirror or in front of stuffed animals if a day comes where you do have a job interview. It's gonna come sooner or later. Or even, just make a bio about yourself and read it to your friends. Just gotta build up your confidence.

In the world of sociology, it's always good to mimic your interviewee's body language. Don't cross your arms.(It shows that you're in a defensive state, that you have fear) If he/she cross legs, do the same in a subtle matter and similar things. They will like you for some reason, but won't know why. If you don't think mimicking body language isn't anything, you should check out a group of friends that are comfortable with each other.. Or even, your class room. Look at an area of a class room and take note of how they're sitting. You may catch them sitting in similar positions throughout the period! (The "leader" tends to be the "trendsetter")

How are you confused on your sexuality at the moment? Are you referring to your orientation? Your sex drive? Sex in general. You're probably the majority of people of your age group to feel that way. You could even feel the same way about yourself in general. Since you like psychology so much, it's good to know there are the "struggles" we go through or also known as our developmental stages. Adolescence is identity versus role confusion. And it sounds like you're trying to get in touch of who you really are, even if it's mostly the sexual aspect right now. :)

I remember a Jump Start Game.. I forget what grade, but there was a weighing activity were you would weigh items using other household items such has bricks, basketballs, rulers, etc.

Sorry for the long comment. :X

I think I was chosen to present that project cause the teacher feels really awkward talking about girly things. He always ends up stuttering and turning red when he tries, lol.

That's very interesting about the body language thing. I think I might have noticed that before, but I never thought anything of it. Hmmm. Good advice too.

Mostly I'm confused about my orientation. My views of who I like and don't like keep changing, and it's getting frustrating. :(

ah, a male teacher. I remember my friend got out of getting in trouble of being late by saying, "I had to get a tampon out of my locker for Kelly." She said the teacher got red and just told her to sit down instead of punishing her.

I can see what you mean when it comes to your orientation. Sometimes a person can wonder how much he/she likes a person. Is it like or some sort of lust? I don't know where I am emotionally, to be honest. I call myself bi, or maybe just bi-curious. My friend had the term pansexual, pan referring to everything/everyone.

In my thoughts, I guess I don't always separate people. I find both men and women appealing. I wouldn't be surprised if I could find myself getting emotionally attached to a female beyond friendship. To me the person is a person. They love and engage in sexual activities. The only difference is that we aren't biologically made for one another.

And again... I'm not TOO sure about it emotionally. I a lot of the girls I meet, I kinda shy away from unless they're really awesome.

I think you got a bullseye on what I'm feeling right there.
