Hello ladies, it's Monday. I had planned on filming my first punishment today, but when I got home, I felt sick. So instead of punishing myself (and I say that in the most sane way possible), I finished a book. More on that book later, but for now: A Brief Introduction to Gaby's Second Semester
Literally, the start of the second semester is the most exciting part of my life right now. Well, that's not completely true. Within the last 24 hours, I have found out that my coworker is 1/4 Mexican, my homeroom teacher's first name is Wheldon, my friend's middle name is Webster (Daniel Webster. He promised me he wasn't lying. He's five times as cool now), and my mom's cousins are moving to Philly from Costa Rica on Friday. All of which is clearly very exciting.
But anywho, during the second semester, I must pass math and physics (physics will kill me, I'm sure) and take an AP exam in both Government and French. AND I started two new classes for this second half of the year. I'm taking technical photography, which seems fun. I say fun and not fascinating because even though I like photography and an interested in it, some of the other kids in the class don't take it seriously. Which makes me feel worse about liking it and wanting to geek out about it and more inclined to slack off in that class.
I have also started my exploring cultures through literature class, which is OHEMGEE soexciting because my favorite teacher is teaching that class and I missed his room. I practically lived in his classroom last year. But today, I walked into the room (I was the first one there. **nerd as usual**) and sat down in the front row because that's my desk and I like it there. But when other people came in, they sat down as far back as possible. So once again, my nerdiness is being discouraged.
It's only 8:30, but I'm tired and not feeling well still, so I'm probably going to go to sleep.
Comment Questions:
1. How cool is the middle name Webster?
2. Did you ever take any AP exams in high school? Or did you take IB's, which I hear are similar? Is there a British equivalent?
3. Have you ever gotten stuck in a class with people who don't care about it?
4. My sister is having a crisis because she's lost her phone twice in the past 24 hours. Do you misplace things often?
5. Do you take naps ever?
Jez, we'll see you tomorrow!
school,
