I'm behind in a bunch of classes. Mrs. Earls seriously hates me. I need extra credit in religion and need so badly to get a good grade on something in English. My grades aren't even terrible... they're just not good. She shot me down again today in AP. I gave my interpretation of a poem we read, she looked at me like I was stupid. Handed in my paper... I tried really hard, and it probably sucked. What can I do. I'm getting frustrated in that class because I never see the point of overanalyzing a poem that was crap anyway. And on top of that, she pisses me off in regular English because she spells out the word coincidence for us and asks us if we know what escalate means. We are seniors in high school. Give me a break.
Anyway, I want to dress up my little sister as something that Dan suggested, but I doubt it's going to get approved by Mrs. Lytle. I'm going to try my hardest, though. I guess that's next week... hard to care about Freshman Initiation when my top choice college's application is due that day.
I wish I could just make lists when I write these journal entries instead of rambling so much. There is so much stuff that has been pissing me off, yet at the same time, there are definitely a lot of good things. I got chosen to audition in NYC late November for Jeopardy... cool! It was a lottery thing based on an online test, but still. Pretty sweet! Mrs. Leonard laughs at my super lame calculus jokes. Awesome. Dan's really great, even if I complain about how he and I fight over milk or Powderpuff or how he won't stop talking about Harvard. Well, I won't shut up about a lot of things, too. Love and learn.
Union College came to my school the other day, and the meeting went really well. It's definitely a great school, and I know I would thrive there. It's still not a top choice for me just because I love the city so much. Hopefully I will get a chance to visit there at some point if I do get in. Tomorrow evening, I have an interview with an alumna in Medfield, but I'm really not worried about it.
Let's see. I covered all the basics - Mrs. Earls hates me, I'm nervous about college, MIT application due next week, Jeopardy, more college, still nervous... Dan loves me, and honestly, it makes me feel better about everything. I don't care if it's pathetic or stupid, I love it that he loves me, and I feel better about being a shitbag sometimes because he's still here for me even if I screw up.
