school and such

so next years junior year, and all i ever hear is how important that year is and how colleges look at how you did that year, so i had to make the decision of taking english honors 11 or AP US history. it was bothering me all day. i took english honors this year and im doing good in it (granted we've had a permenant sub for awhile, i did good when the real teacher was there) but if i were gonna take that class id have to write an essay and then they'd see if im good enough for it. AP US is with this teacher who favors guys and its tonsss of booknoting. plus, its basically you teaching the class, and its a lot more memorizing than thinking. and well, i dont have a memory. so i went with english and stayed after to write their stupid essay. it was about this book i read last year and i barely remember it, but hopefully they like my bull shit. i just dont really like the thought of not getting accepted, i dont take rejection well, and that essay was somewhat unfair. cant expect me to remember something from a year ago when i dont remember what happened 1st period today. oooh well guess ill just hope for the best. im taking french 4 too, which is considered an honors course. and i reallly like that class and the teacher. school just bothers me in general lately though. im absent like once a week cus i simply cant stand it. half the people there are annoying, and i dont like having to take subjects that i dont care about and probably wont need much of in the future. say, geometry -- tell me how a psychologist is gonna need to know that a triangle's angles equal 180 degrees. i do well in school, regardless of my lack on interest, i just don't like how we only get a say in our electives. we should be preparing for our futures, not the typical persons future. also, we started our new electives this week. i have health now, seems like an okay class but i dont sit anywhere near my friends which always sucks. and i have culinary arts, which will be okay. except the only person i really know is laura provost. but i can deal. sadly, my school is only one floor, so the walk from health, to science is about a quarter mile. and then i have to walk back to the health hall for culinary arts. its a pain. i bought a few cds the other night. havent listened to them all but so far im happy. 1-hoobastank 2-the juliana theory 3-led zeppelin 4-dashboard 5-brand new 6-mars volta and sugarcult. yay! so im hoping brina will come over tonight and curl my hair. and maaaaybe we wont have school tomorrow due to this shitty new england weather.
