I'm off to play the piano so I don't have to work on my history homework.
Sorry about the short post.

FCAT Week
FCAT... A standardized test that is required according to the Sunshine State Standards. Also a test that the teachers want to kill.
And burn.
And rip apart.
For the poor kids who are at the line between fail/not failing, this is everything to them. It's the factor between if they are held back.
Except... If you DO fail it... Well... Maybe you NEED to be held back.
So it's good.
Right?
Wrong.
If you get really sick and can't make it to school, then you might "fail" it.
If ONE PERSON'S cell phone makes noises during the test, then the ENTIRE class is disqualified.
ONE PERSON.
Uggggh.......
Two+ hours of boring passages.
The only passage that people liked was "Spelling Yiff-niff". Which was disappointing because they never told you how it's spelled. I know it's not a world, but still.
Hey, guess what... I'm on the FRENCH REVOLUTION in history!
It's sooo boring. The people here love making fun of the French because they never won any wars and yada yada yada.
I just find them boring because it's my history homework, so that's my job.
Don't you just rejoice in finding out that a creepy person lives less than two blocks away from you and that s/he could easily walk over to your house, walk along the side of your house, turn into your backyard, look into the nearest window, knock on it, and find themselves looking into your room as you do your homework, solve your Rubik's Cube, or work on your grenades? I personally find that scary. Not the grenade part, though.

ATTN: People who leave comments
Please tell me who you are when you leave a comment. You may use a "code" name, as long as I know who is using the name.
This is because sometimes, I want to reply to your comment. But I can't do this if I don't know who you are.
If you don't want other people to know who it is, then just email me.
If you are reading this blog and do not have my email address, then chances are, you should not be reading it.
If you should be reading it, then you can always ask me or someone else who happens to know it.
And finally, if you don't want me to know who you are, and you still want to leave a comment, then just use your good judgement to decide whether you want to actually leave one, because sometimes, I will stop at nothing to figure out who it is. By then, if you lie to me, then you might regret it. This especially goes to the people who actually (and unfortunately) go to my school.
Sorry for the inconvenience!!!
And I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Cramming is the only option.
Our sponsor got pretty mad because the entire school practically died during the last math competition. None of our teams placed, and sweepstakes was "unheard-of". So, in two weeks, we have to get ourselves back together and dominate at the Regional, which actually takes place at OUR school, so "there will be no excuses" because we don't have to be there until after 8:30, and we'll be in our own "environment".
Then, two weeks after that, we are supposed to go back to Buchholz and get first place sweepstakes at the "UF" Invitational, hosted by Nu Alpha Theta.
We'll see how that goes...
Back in December, I used about one and a half weeks to add most of the Algebra II concepts in our textbooks to my brain. Now, everyone knows all of the concepts. At this point, it's really more about knowing exactly what you're doing, using your time efficiently, not making ANY mistakes, and being more intelligent than any other fortunate mathematician. Of course, knowing more tricks always helps too.
Basically, if this weekend hadn't happened, most of us would be a lot happier.
For me, the discomforting part of the trip was not the competition, even though I failed miserably, disproving my chance of actually being good at MAO. I didn't even get 36th place. I don't know what I got, though, and I honestly do not want to know.
I ended up learning a lot more about everyone else in the process of two 6-hour car rides and an endless, detailed conversation with Diana until around 1:30 in the morning the day before the competition. We decided that our immediate world is a very scary place[, and especially mine..].
As of yesterday, I am officially in the Gifted program! Too bad... I didn't acquire any magically Gifted prowess.

Life-enriching Experiences
Walter labeled the second one that after I told him about it.
1) I found out what a certain thing is that certain people use in certain situations, thanks to William, who was nice enough to expose me to the scary outside world.
2) I was recommended by a person on the internet who said that his friend needs a girlfriend. They live in OHIO! >.<

AAAAAAAHHH!!!
Oh no...
I haven't studied...
I'm scared!
WE'RE LEAVING FOR TAMPA ON FRIDAY AFTER SECOND PERIOD AND NOT COMING BACK UNTIL SATURDAY NIGHT!
I'm really excited, but really nervous.
Because this is my chance to "prove" that I belong on team one.
Which isn't happening if I have to do math.
Which is kind of important, considering how the whole thing is about math.
If I had to decide, I'd want it to come, though, since I'm so tired of normal school and stuff.
As of today, I am OFFICALLY finished with semester one of World History! My teacher sent me a Hallmark E-card congratulating me. It made my day so very interesting.

A Satisfying Feeling
I finished my exam! FINALLY!
The timer had four hours, and I think I used one hour. That hour went by really, really quickly. I think there was 38 problems.
The password FINALLY worked. The browser said "Thank you!" instead of "Error" this time. It was nice.
I answered all the multiple choice/matching questions correctly because they're automatically graded. If I have no points on my last assignment and do not answer any of the hand-graded questions correctly, then I will have an 88%. So I should have an A for the class :)
I'm really excited because this is the half-way point.
I will be learning about the Enlightenment after this...
And I'm reading "Night" by Elie Wiesel towards the end of the second "semester".
We have three days of school this week because today is Presidents' Day! My MVC might only have two days if he goes to the tennis tournament on Wednesday because it's all day.
Tennis... I need to practice that.
I also need to practice MAO. I saw the last Middleton Invitational questions. They were hard. Not THAT hard, but kinda hard... I don't know.
I just hate coordinate problems. Like conics and lines and abscissas and ordinates. Blah.
I'll hate radians next year, too.
Binomial expansion and logarithms are okay, I guess.
I'm not quite sure what my favorite type of math is.
I'm rambling (again).
Yadayadayada.
I feel like going somewhere fun.
Probably because I don't ever do that unless there is a MAO competition. I really like them because they differ from the normal routine of school. And we get to annoy Diana for 12 whole hours on the coach, not counting the time we're there, of course.
Wow, we're going to Tampa.

Happy Day of Writing an Essay!
2007 is YEAR OF THE PIG! CHUN JIE KUAI LE!
The pigs are dancing on Google.com. It's kinda weird.
I get to write an essay on how the Renaissance began and how it changed Europe because I decided that it was the easiest prompt out of the five choices.
Yesterday, we FINALLY played tennis again.
I want to do something fun today. It's the biggest holiday in my culture!
If only I had the cunning ability to write essays really quickly... I really need to focus. I'm getting this ADD feeling because it's taken me an hour to write a three-sentence "introduction with a clear thesis(the one senence that explains what that paragraph is about)".
Here are the instructions for writing a five-paragraph essay given by Florida Virtual School:
1. Tell them what you are going to say (Introduction)
2. Say what you are going to say (Three Body Paragraphs-one for each supporting point)
3. Tell them that you said what you were going to say (Conclusion- which never introduces new points of evidence)
If I wanted to get kids to write essays, I don't think this would be very interesting... It certainly doesn't capture my attention. Can you imagine a kid who, after reading this, genuinely saying, "YAY! I WANNA WRITE ONE!"?
...
LOL- At least the steps were very accurate. After all, that is exactly how you write one.
:EDIT: YES! I FINISHED THE ESSAY IN TWO HOURS!!!!! I AM SO AWESOME! LOL! NOW I "GET TO" GET THE PASSWORD TO TAKE THE EXAM!!
AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!
I'm scared. It's 20% of my grade and I have to pass......

CHINESE NEW YEARS EVE
Hey everyone! Happy Chinese New Year's Eve!!!! =D
I just finished my last assignment of Semester 1, and am going to write an essay about the Renaissance for the exam... I don't know whether I should start it today. I guess I find some good websites or something.
Well, actually, technically, the last assignment is the exam.
This morning, I FINALLY went to Deerlake! It was so wealthy.
I guess this would be a good time to study MAO for once......... About MAO- I don't know why I can't take easy tests. Anyways, when I study, I don't learn how to do those problems. At Buchholz, I could rearrange logarithms, but when it came to subtraction, I did the opposite.
It's because of my stupid frontal lobe that I got kicked off the team.
The teacher chose Diana over me to be on team 1 for OWC, which is next Saturday.
We get to miss school on Friday!! I'm so excited! We get to sit on a coach and annoy Diana for six whole hours, throughout the competition, and six MORE hours when we come back on Saturday! I'm so excited! LOL!
However, this competition is personally very important for me because it's my chance to prove myself again. I have to own both Diana and Jack to ensure a place on the team again. Also, since I'm doing Theta Open, I'll be up against two of my cousin's "angelic" friends. My cousin is on team one for Deerlake :) He's the only guy... Weird, huh. William said I have to "get first place" because I got second place last time. Those evil Rickards people...
Well, I can't wait for the awesome bus ride! Oh yeah, we're stopping at the mall in Gainesville which is apparently where David and Jack entered Victoria's Secret in 8th grade or something.... x.x

i think i'm supposed to be practicing the piano right now...
I'm at lost to what I should say in this post. I suppose I should just type randomnly.
Okay: today, we had "Hearts for the Arts", so random fine arts people performed- drama, orchestra, and choir. There were also 2-D and 3-D artworks displayed in awkward places. The orchestra teacher "condensed" the orchestra because the stage wasn't big enough or something, and also, it sounded really bad. This made some people kind of disappointed.. I felt really bad for them.
March: At least seven people I know are having birthdays in March.
Half the math teams' birthdays are in March, including my ancient friend, Diana.
Some people at school have labeled me as the "stalker"...
That was rEALLy random.
And PARtially correct...
Not really.
I just felt like typing "PARtially" because Diana is in love with golf [scores[like pars[ and birdies [and bogeys too]]]...
She's weird.
And I'm tired of the SAME THING EVERY DAY just like every other kid I know is doing- school, homework, school, homework... I feel sorry for EVERYONE when it comes to this.

Life is so unfair.
Haven't you heard that so often? Usually, the person who says that is dubbed selfish or ignorant.
Well, I was talking to someone, and we both agreed- life really isn't fair at all.
I'm not going to go into detail about the actual person, but hey, if you're reading this, I think you'll know if it's you or not.
And just when MY life was going mediocre-ly-okay, meaning nothing WORSE had happened in the past month or so, although, it couldn't get that much worse without something really weird happening, I am now officially off Team 1. Yup. Shoved off. Booted off. Given the back of someone's hand. Isolated. Assassinated... Whatever you may call it, it's happened.
I'm really glad that my MVC got a chance to be on team 1, though.
But I still feel horrible because I'm mad that I'm not on the team anymore. The next competition is going to be very, very important for me because I have to prove myself worthy [again]. If I manage to beat Diana and Jack, those two may have to compete for the last spot. There's four total people, by the way. I don't think I can do this... I can't do MATH... My life of MAO is full of careless errors. I've only managed to do well on the competitions/tests that don't really count for the school, like the preseasonal, AMC10, and the Nunn test, which I didn't exactly pass, but I still beat Diana (and Ryan on the preseasonal and the AMC10, which I think is awesome because he hates China and/or does it to annoy us) somehow. Why do I care so much? I should be happy that I even had the chance to be kicked off of team ONE... But I'm not happy at all. I'm just really mad at myself for being so freakishly retarted. I'm sorry for using up the entire post to complain. It's starting to sound like one of my earlier posts. Why do I have to be so selfish? Maybe it's human nature to fight for the best for yourself. I've already used "I" way too much in this post. At least I care about other people. But caring isn't going to take you very far in life. I hate being selfish and trying to do things for ME just so I can succeed in HIGH SCHOOL. Why does it have to be like this? If I were more selfish, I wouldn't have this conscience problem, either. But I don't want to be like that... I'm so confused... Oh well- life isn't fair.
And about "I'M SO CONFUSED!", that's what someone says whenever we stand up to clap for anyone from CHS's MAO who gets first place (including teams), and then everyone else says "THINK PINK!!!!" I don't get it.

OWC
I have no time to write a long novel on this because it's kinda late and I kinda have to do my homework. Maybe I will. But it really wasn't very interesting, particularly since my VP and MVC weren't on our bus because this girl made sure the VP was with HER and blahblahblahblahblah. Well anyways, just to clarify things since I found out that Connie and Susan READ THIS (:!!!!!:), my Vice President is June, and my Most Valuable Customer is Jack. Diana is my HOUSE(Head of the Unusual Stalking of Employees), even though I am the real "stalker".
Basically, William got 1st place, Ryan got 7th place, and Jack got 10th place. Diana beat me again. And she thought she wasn't smart... HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I might be kicked off the team, or she might, because Jack is going to be on TEAM ONE because Mr. F said so. He "earned it" or something like that. I agree, because I got onto T1 because I owned those four (William, Ryan, Diana, Shuyao) at Rickards. I'm really glad that Jack is taking this opportunity to got to the Middleton Invitational. He finallly has a math trophy! Poor Diana... William and Ryan are fine, obviously. Mr. F said that he's "not even going to think about it" until next week, which made Diana pretty scared and "spazzatious". Way down here, everyone uses the word, "spazz". It means "to freak out". Or, "Diana, especially at the beginning of the school year when there was a Pre-AP Bio Honors test." Yup. She's in PRE-AP BIOLOGY HONORS. Scary, huh? I don't think this stupid school is ever going to let me take Pre-AP classes because I didn't sign up in 8th grade. -.- The whole Floridian school system needs to die. Well, I'll post the "new" team 1 after I get the information. It's ironic how right after Buchholz, Mr. F said he wasn't "ruining something good" because someone asked him if team 1 was going to change... -sigh-

Scary.
I had to email my teacher my notes, but I didn't put it as an attachment because of my slow internet, so I just put it in the email, and she printed off my notes from her email and made copies for the whole class because the entire class uses each other's notes, and now, MY ENTIRE SCIENCE CLASS KNOWS MY EMAIL ADDRESS!!!! X.X
So this picture would be fitting not only for a casual night stroll, but for a casual day at home in front of the computer.
I decided to just put the picture on here. I don't know why I didn't before, when I had a link that said "Click here".
I just got two emails. One reply was "so did my parents" and the other one was "not really". And that's it. Wow. How descriptive. Jack wrote them. He says that Garfield is his role model because of this comic:
So this picture would be fitting not only for a casual night stroll, but for a casual day at home in front of the computer.

I'm gong to dedicate this 125th post to...
My awesome WI friend, Susan, who jokingly emailed me saying that I should dedicate an entire post to her.
HI SUSAN! LOL!
I remember when I first met you in 6th grade. I think it was in math class- remember Mrs. Wagner's class? "Accelerated 6th Grade Math" that was essentially "The Worst 7th grade math POSSIBLE" AAAAHHH!! I got two 70%'s on a test and then a quiz. The quiz was on similar triangles and I messed up sooo much and she was like, sorry, you can't retake it after I asked.......... But I got A's!! It was so weird. I hated math in 6th grade. I'm sure you did too. Remember when we were trying to get you an AIM account and you FINALLY got one!!! But then we never used it....... LOL!!! And then, one day at lunch, we ate lunch together (well obviously), and you ordered Cheesy Corn Chowder (soup) and you were so excited because of the interesting name :) Wow, I still remember what your winter coat looked like. It was so different when we would wait in line for lunch against opposite ends of the cafeteria (the closer opposites) and everyone had those unwieldy coats so we sat on them while eating lunch... -sigh- Let's see... 7th grade- we got Algebra I!!!! I sat in front of you pretty much the entiiiire year and we'd constantly know what we got on each other's tests and quizzes. Remember Mr. Nguyen and how he'd grade our tests the NEXT DAY?? And if he didn't, it was amazing! Skipping over to 8th grade- the painful year... In the beginning, I had known that I'd probably move... I told a few people including you, and by the end, Arezu STILL wouldn't believe me! LOL!!!! Geometry was so fun!! But you sat too far away :( Because Bryna was in between us. I would laugh at her blonde hair every now and then... I loved Geometry so much!!!!!!!! At the end of the year, we all had our science finals... I can't believed I passed. It was torture.... beyond torture... AP-like torture.................... Yeah, we're gonna stuff this test tube with 6 random THINGS and you have to test what they are!! Ours was so tricky. The potassium dichromate and baking soda were mixed together so we thought we had a yellow thing, but we had water mixed in with in with the methanol and AARGGH!! And you had Maia on your group and that was interesting... By the end of the year, you could see the Maia&Henry thing... It was pretty disturbing... I remember the last time I saw you, you were waving at your door and I waved back and I was in our van and then I had to close the door :( And my drove me off and away from your neighborhood... *SOB**** I still have that picture frame! It makes me so sad. With the little smiley that has an arrow pointed to it, saying "Arezu"... Oh yeah- about my picture that you wanted- I don't think I have another picture of myself that isn't different from the school one. I think that was one of the last pictures taken of me. The only other ones were the ones for the MAO competitions, but I don't think I'm going to get those. Who knows. I really want our team one. That was awesome. I hope you liked this post!!! It makes me so sad!!!!!!!

OWC Regional this Saturday- Team 1 is not ready
Click on this.
It is a picture of me, your omnipotent CEO, "South Park"-version, which I have never watched... I forgot the website where I created it... :EDIT: It's here.
I am so deprived. I haven't even touched a Wii yet.
OWC... I think I could've gotten a lot of MAO in my brain if I didn't spend my time elsewhere... Ugh I don't even know if that's one word. -checks in dictionary- Okay, it is.
Oh yeah! GUESS WHAT? I'm judging an art contest on an online forum in which the leader and another person have already labeled me "him" and "he" and I never disclosed my gender........... Wow..... Well, it IS a video game forum. But still. I find that interesting.

All Riiiight
I can fit in about four more hours of practice! Regardless of the fact that my left pinky's middle joint fells like it wants to blow up. I don't know what's wrong with it... It hurts though :( I hope I can survive the six+ minute piece.
I'm running out of things to say at the moment, so I think I will post a picture. It is one of my favorite pictures of all time.

Espanol/Spanish
Yo tengo MUCHO hambre.......... Quiero comida ahora!!!! AHORA!!!! Mmmmmm... comida....
Y tengo que practicar el piano veinte horas mas...
Tengo mucho tarea, tambien... No la me gusta nada.
Translation:
I'm VERY hungry......... I want food now!!! NOW! Mmmmm.... food....
And I need to practice the piano for twenty more hours...
I have a lot of homework, too... I don't like it at all.
Pienso que todos los estudiantes de las clases de espanol en la escuela de Chiles deben hablar en espanol a Diana. Es un idea fantastica porque ella no esta en la clase de espanol.
I'm not translating that.

I recently got this comment on the atheist post:

First of all, I'm wondering who it is. I hope it isn't the 34-year-old Retail Manager. I personally can't think of anyone who wrote write those words and use that username. Unless Rzueebob has taken on the name and gotten interested in James Bond at the same time? O.O
Interestingly, my VP read this right after it was posted. Juuune..... Did YOU write this?????

Heredity
My little bro's mom is German on her father's side and Italian on er mother's side. This obviously makes him 1/4 German and 1/4 Italian. He could be related to famous people such as Niccolo Machiavelli, Lorenzo de Medici (LOL- the Medici family...), Giotto, Sandro Botticelli, and of course, Leonardo da Vinci. I think that's pretty interesting. He can't be related to Hitler because the weird dictator was Jewish and stuff.
I'm more proud of my genotype, though. 100% Chinese! =D
Ryan called Diana's genotype that of a supermodel today in Biology. My little bro told me all about it.
Oh no... Biology with freshmen.... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! It won't be fun unless my cousin and his "angelic" friends are in my class.
Let's see... I'm more than half-way done with my History homework for today. I've procrastinated until now.
I guess I should go finish it now.
Zai jian.
