So I won the speech contest. Everyone saw that coming (except apparently my mom, which makes absolutely no sense).

Anyway, in more important news, I have about three days to do four photo project. Haha, oops. (I have the same three days to finish my Zexion thing in art, but I'm halfway done with that, so I'm not too worried.) Yeah... and I don't ( Read more... )

I got Mrs Lake to let me type up the (probably) final version of my speech. It's only two pages now! (Well, at 11pt font instead of 12pt it is.) Which... is good.

So we were supposed to go practice in Ms Santillon's room. I forgot. So did Melissa. But I asked other people! (During the film Mrs Lake was showing, which was not Empire of the Sun, so ( Read more... )

So during advisory period I tried drawing something kind of based off of the pose Josh does during lvl3 fusion, but I totally screwed it up, so I ended up throwing it away. I'll probably try drawing it again later, like during art or maybe lunch (but I'll probably be too busy playing TWEWY, so probably near the end of art).

Speaking of TWEWY, I ( Read more... )

Oh boy, it's a sub. d.___.b I wonder what movie we're watching?

Anyway. Mrs Lake declares that the PBL committee has decided this morning that only eight students will be presenting their speeches at the exhibition. She claims they've already been chosen, but she didn't tell us who they were. (Which is annoying, because, really, we're the class she' ( Read more... )

So Ms Padilla showed everyone their grades from the in-class speech presentations, only she didn't show the people who were presenting because she didn't want them to think "OMG I got a bad grade woeeeeee". And then she ended up showing us anyway. I got a B-. Which was apparently the highest grade in the class. (Seriously, Ms Padilla, if most of ( Read more... )

I guess I've figured out how to not get into the speech competition. Ms Padilla informed us today that when we present our speeches to the class, we are not allowed to use our essays. We get notecards that can have, you know, notes, but that's it. Since my speech isn't about what I'm saying so much as how I'm saying it, if I'm reduced to merely ( Read more... )

Factual errors? In my heavily-researched paper? It's more likely than you think. (Though, honestly, it's my fault for not properly going through what I already had - at least, I think it might have been. Could have been? Anyway, it's fixed now.)

Part of me is amazed that my mom showed it to one of her coworkers, and part of me totally expected it. I ( Read more... )

I now have forty pages of research for this stupid PBL essay. I now know a lot more about the Constellation Project than I ever thought I would. And I still haven't beaten freaking Pi-face. Yep, just another day in my life ( Read more... )

There's a girl in my photo class who's carrying around a birthday cake. It's taking rather a lot of effort to not make a Portal joke ("That cake looks great, I bet it's so delicious and moist.") Also, this is the one day that I really probably should have brought my camera. Oops. (Come to think of it, wasn't Sammi carrying around a cake yesterday, ( Read more... )

Okay, so it's nearly ten-thirty in the morning, I'm still drowsy from Benadryl, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have major cramps later today, and first block just started. Welcome to Career Day, people ( Read more... )
