(no subject)
I used to get mad at my school
The teachers that taught me weren't cool
You're holding me down
Burning me round
Filling me up with the rules
- It's Getting Better All The Time, The Beatles
So...Monday. Yeah. English first out, which was basically us going to the library, getting our book and then reading it. Actually, for some reason, my teacher told me that if I found the book too "simple" or "trivial" then I was welcome to finish it and then read a harder one. Our book is called A Single Shard and it's..uhm...well it's kinda good actually. It isn't the best I've ever read, but it's definitely not the worst. It's about this Chinese orphan back in the ancient times called Tree-Ear (Alexandra laughed a lot at that name) who lives with a guy who has weird legs called Crane-Man. And so uhm he goes to secretly watch a potter, Min, work. He isn't there, so he goes into his workshop to look at his pieces. Tree-Ear accidentally breaks one and has to work nine days for the old cranky potter (almost automatically wrote 'Potter' with a capital P).
Swedish was as usual. Our Swedish teacher has a one-man comedy show but doesn't know it. Alexandra and I came to a conclusion about his dressing style. He looks as if though he slept with his clothes on, woke up and went "Hello everybody! Let's go to school without making sure our hair looks presentable or our clothes are ironed!" Sigh. But he's funny, we laugh at him when he's said something funny because it would be kinda mean to just outright laugh at him when he bumps into things.
In Math we didn't do anything special, just talking about the course in general (I'm reading the fast course, as in I read Math A and Math B in two semesters, and then taking Math C in year 2 and maybe even up to Math E in year 3 if that's what I have to do for admission to med school.) and the book and whatever.
There's another gay guy! I mean, wow, surprise, but still, kinda cool though. What's even more un-surprising is that he's the only male dancer in our year. And has done ballet. Gay? Yes. Hot? Naaaah....he's more cute. But I'm not fond of his nose though.
Musical theory went alright, our homework was to bring audio examples of different times. Like 4/4, 3/4, 3/8 and what not. I brought Stravinsky's Rite of Spring which changes time like...well, all the time (aren't I a scream?) and after a minute or so no one of us had found a time for it so we took the CD back. XD
Now I've got computer science in twenty-five minutes. Our textbook in that subject is totally behind. I mean, what kid at age 16 doesn't know what ;) or :) means? The book was like:
;) :) :-)
Rotate the book 45 degrees to the left and you'll find that the signs above make out faces, the first one with the twinkle in it's eye.
HELLOO?
Jesus.
I want icecream. Or something. Or chocolate. Maybe. Idunno.
Seeya!
