Vandy

I was browsing through various university websites, and they all had one thing in common. If you click to apply to the place, you have to click over and over and over and over again until the actual application becomes your holy grail. This process takes so long that it is as if they don't want you to come.
At this moment, I'm using the iLike application to listen to the beginning of the Fantaisie Impromptu after sending an FB message to Katelyn and Jack. It's so fun! If you listen to it, you will know what I mean. Playing it makes the situation many times better, though. Hopefully, that makes sense.
Today, Ryan found out that Al Gore went to Vanderbilt- formerly a prospective university in Ryan's opinion. It was quickly torn off the list.
Time for piano practice!

I forgot that since I have a faster internet connection, uploading images will be easier. I was looking at layouts and came across the above picture. It's so sad even though our little(cough cough) inside joke makes it funny.
You might see more pictures in my posts now that it won't take a few hours to upload a 1MB picture.
One of the more common Pride & Prejudice pictures (from the newer version) is kind of scary. Anyways, here's the movie poster since certain people don't know the book/movie:

Again, it's really depressing and touching but scary and untrue at the same time.

10 Pages

Yeah, I know. I still have 10 more pages of notes. I thought it was still 32 all day, which sucked, but I'm happy that it isn't.
For Anchor, girls have to wear dresses on Monday and on Tuesday evening- the Induction Ceremony that is mandatory for all members.
Monday- MAO, Pre-calc
Tuesday- Math tutoring, Jazz Band
Wednesday- stuff
Thursday- more stuff
Friday- more more stuff
Yay... I should definitely take my Euro notes, reread the chapter, and get ready for the essay and test tomorrow. Thankfully, she put the prompt on the whiteboard for us to prepare. In the future, it won't be so easy nor so convenient.
Sorry about the short post.

32 Pages of Euro Notes to Go... 32 Pages to Go...

Like "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" except not desirable.
I don't like beer, though.
Anyways, I finished my 50 Renaissance IDs- FINALLY!!!! I think I went on autopilot for the past few hours, searching for them, jotting down key facts, and going on to the next one. It was very tedious and I really don't want to take so many notes. I'm probably going to read it and write very vague things into my notebook because it shouldn't matter that much. I just need all the sections and such. The AP Euro test is this Thursday for Chapter 14 Renaissance Europe. It's so redundant to put "Europe" into the title.
Interims are coming out soon and the Atheists in our English class are very, very worried about our grades, particularly Diana. I feel really bad for her and I'm scared for myself, too. I'm saving some coloring to do at lunch tomorrow, so I probably won't go to the Anime Club meeting in the IRC.
Gaku called me today because I'm one of the four iTest captains. I had to call my team members and tell them to sign up and stuff. It went well- everyone's signed up!
Gaku- Clara, Roland, Patrick, Carolyn
Ann- Won, Linda, Yige, and Michael
Kejing- Diana, Ryan, Joseph, Lisa
Noliyanda- Logan, Xixi, Lauren, Vicky

::EDIT::
Of course, our iTest team is "Gator-fil-A".

::2ND EDIT::
At lunch on many occasions: "____ IS GOING OUT WITH JOHN MORAN!!!"
"____ IS GOING OUT WITH JOHN MORAN?????!!!"
"YEAH! ____IS GOING OUT WITH JOHN MORAN??"
"WAIT, WHO DOES ____ LOVE?"
"JOHN MORAN"
"-POINT POINT POINT POINT POINT-"
"THEY'RE GOING OUT!!!"
"WHO'S GOING OUT"?

No one's going out with him, though.

Skipping Euro Note-Taking Time for This

Today was such a weird day.
In Spanish, the church people moved our desks into normal rows rather than angled weird rows. In Euro, Chanyang said "Aww.. he got a haircut" and Omar decided to comment it loudly. We had to take notes from a very boring PPT that is way too large to download and save but I did it anyways. In Stat, I found out how worried Diana is about her English grade, and felt miserable for her until I reached Chem, where we didn't do anything new. Significant digits are really boring. Lunch came really quickly, and Bio was boring as usual. We have a large Chemistry quiz in Bio tomorrow, and I'm probably not ready but I'm typing this and minimally taking notes on Florence. Pre-Calculus began with Mrs. Johnson reminding us that we all failed, and we got our tests back. I felt really stupid for getting a 101.5% (she rounded down to 101 on OASIS), but people did really badly and William got a 95 or something, so I felt VERY, VERY lucky. English was not very eventful. We didn't get our summer reading test essays back, nor any other grades because some people hadn't taken the test yet. Once, she left our essays at church choir practice. O.O

They said Ryan with Catherine's head band looks like Federer.

I think Federer's nose is too big and Ryan's hair too light for them to look like each other. Yeah, I finally went on Google Images and looked because I forgot what he looked like. Federer, I mean. I firmly believe I know what Ryan (slightly) looks like from being in about five classes with him every day at school. And lunch. I see what they meant about the head band, though. Except Catherine had a very light pink thin-for-a-head-band-head band.
I got myself into Jazz Band, and I'm really happy about it, but the music is soooo hard to read! Not because it's hard.. but the notes are TINY! And not even normal-shaped. As in nice and round and NORMAL and it's so messy and argh.
And Bruni sucks because he was the first to write a modern history book. Which led to more history books and our Euro book that very bipolarly has short and long sections. We have to take notes on the long sections during the weekday which makes it worse unless we want to get ahead, but who is so bored that they would want to take extra Euro notes? And we have 50 ID words.

The Lowest One by Far

I have a 91% in Spanish right now because I got a 69% on a culture/geography quiz. Hah. Hah. Hah... If my previous Spanish teachers knew this, they'd probably die or something worse.
This is actually really funny: I had to put the birthday balloons that Joseph sent me via the Balloon Express in Mrs. Priddy (last year's Spanish teacher) room so I could take it home the next day when I wasn't going home on the bus but with my dad so we could go to the tax collector's building to get my permit. The next day when I went back to get the balloons, Mrs. Priddy said that a lot of her students told her "Happy Birthday" since the mylar had that on it and that she told all of them that they were my balloons. I don't know who, but some people said that I'm very nice or something. Anyways, yesterday (or was it the day before?) I found out that a certain person has her 4th period AP Spanish class. = =" Chanyang and I laughed very hard. Or well, Chanyang laughed very hard.
Chanyang ALSO laughs very hard during the morning announcements in AP Euro. Ryan just smiles.
I think it's funny how I'm doing poorly in my 1st and 7th periods and my AP classes have the highest grades.

He was definitely there (and stoned).

My WONDERFUL friends have recently gotten very paranoid and have decided that the school prez stares at me because he "likes me". Jack is very happy about this because that means one of his "boyfriends" will have been taken away. Today, he was at the SNHS meeting and he looked kinda stoned...
Joseph, Katelyn and Anna are playing Canon in D, and the piano part isn't good until about the end besides the fact that it starts alone.
My permit card thing came in the mail yesterday!
I'm really bored. I have nothing interesting to say and ____ talking to me is NOT like "day and night". Unfortunately, he DID notice me. O.O
In Pre-Calc, I told Ryan that his head was good where it was because it blocked the 900 building balcony (allusion to Romeo and Juliet) so he lowered his head very far. Jack is now in love with Chris Kessling, who is in three of my classes and sits in front of Jack in Pre-Calc. Typing of Pre-Calc, we are probably getting our tests back tomorrow. She said she graded the first page for everyone and no one got a 100%. This was very disappointing. I still have an 85.7% in English and she only uploads our grades every two weeks. If I do perfectly until 9/18 (interim reports), I SHOULD have an A but you never know. Thankfully, I don't think we're individually presenting our projects tomorrow, but there will be a "gallery" sort of showing. There is a test in Spanish, quiz in Euro and test in Stat tomorrow. All in a row starting in first period. I am going to be very, very nervous.

Day Three

After lunch, my dad sat in the car as we made circles at Meadow Ridge and Preservation again. Then, my parents and brother and I left the house to go to Home Depot. My dad stopped in Walgreens and I took over from there until that place across from Suntrust. I parked (where there weren't cars) correctly, which was very lucky. Then, as we drove home, my dad went into the BAM! parking lot. I drove home from there and on Bannerman for the second time since yesterday. Driving 50mph on Bannerman is awesome. Jack finished his Drug/Alcohol Course today!!! He still has to patiently wait for his certificate, though. I wish my mom drove to work in the smaller car... Then, I could scare Lisa every morning. I'm so excited!
I'm not so excited about my grades, though...

El segundo dia cuando conduzco.

This very late morning around 1:30pmish, my father let me drive on Ronds Pointe, Preservation, Conservancy, Summerbrooke Drive, and Meadow Ridge. He backed out of our driveway for me, though. We probably went around and around for about an hour. Later today in the 3pmish time frame, my brother was being very feverish so my mom and I went to Publix to buy ice cream and other food-related objects. She drove outside Chiles but instead of going to the parking lot, I got on the car, turned to Thomasville, changed to the right lane successfully-ish. I looked in the mirrors but turned too quickly- there were double white lines for a while until I could turn to the right lane. Bannerman was a little scary because it was so narrow, but it was okay. I'm so glad my mom isn't scared of me driving. My dad didn't want me to go on Bannerman today. He said I was too wobbly. I can't wait to drive to school every day, but it will be in the van so I probably can't for a while. My dad's work place is farther away so he takes the smaller car.
Katelyn's having party but Jack, Chanyang and I have academic issues... cough cough Euro test Tuesday cough cough.

::EDIT:: Went driving in Summerbrooke and Ox Bottom again.
