new leaf

I felt so confident after the SAT that I did well, maybe even in the 2300’s. Looking at the discussion on college confidential, I realize that I got more wrong than I imagined, and now I even doubt a 2200 is still a possibility. Looking at all the questions people discussed on the forum made me remember all the sections I had doubts on, and now I realize how many critical reading questions I might have missed.

Well, at least now I won’t have high expectations shot down when I get my score.

    You know how when you get punished for starting too early in a sprint? That’s how I feel. I think I’ve been relaxing too early and now I’m gonna get fucked for it. I was playing games during the weekdays before the Comp Sci AP test and the night before I didn’t study at all, watching anime instead. Instead of picking up Chem after my disastrous Comp Sci test, I began to play maple right after school because Tennis season ended.

Damn it, this was supposed to be the time for me to go all out with studying so I could totally relax after the AP tests, but I screwed it up.

Am I the only one? Am I the only one not doing anything fun or having exciting, productive days? Up until now I have done absolutely nothing this vacation. Every day its the same routine:
wake up late at 11:00
go on the computer
play games
study
watch TV
go to bed at 12:00
I’m so tired of this routine I’m physically getting tired of it; I just got up from an all afternoon nap. I’m deteriorating away and there’s no end in sight! If I don’t get some excitement I’m actually going to start looking forward to finishing the chem lab.

Just thinking about that time when I ordered warheads for a certain few friends makes me mad. We all promised to buy one pound of warheads, and I myself bought two pounds, so it was all settled among us. Unfortunately, when you order online, it only comes in 5 pound bags, so I just ordered that, with my 2 pounds in there as well as the 3 pounds other friends ordered. When it got here, each pound was not separated, so I divided the whole bag into 5 parts, and brought it over to Jack’s house in a big bag. When I got there, while some people started bitching at me because they wanted their own individual 1 pound, other people just backed out and said they didn’t actually want to buy them. So okay, then I took the extra warheads those people didn’t want to buy and sold them individually for 5 cents each. Then everyone was like, “You’re making money off friends? That’s pathetic, they should be free.” Okay first of fucking all, I was losing money by selling them at 5 cents, and second of all, it was those people who backed out of the deal that started that shit, so the injustice of it all pissed the hell out of me. Oh, the best of all? My parents gave me hella shit for not selling the warheads that I promised to sell, and said they’d never buy online food for me again. Also, they really didn’t trust me after that, after all the fucking trust I tried to build up over the years, and they thought of me again as childish, someone who doesn’t plan out their business.

“Yo why’d you get the soup?”

“Does that even fill you up?”

“You got soup?”

“You could get something better for that price.”

“What the fuck is that.”

This is what I hear when I buy soup at Chef’s.

Don’t you guys ever feel bad about what we did to Ms. Peterson during her last year? She was a nice, friendly lady if you got to know her well. Her only fault was to justly get pissed off at kids who wouldn’t stop disturbing her class. Maybe she was just too trusting as well, and got taken advantage of. It was her last year! Instead of moving into retirement triumphantly, we made her feel like shit after each day. I would REALLY hate to suffer through that. On her last day as an AP Bio teacher at AHS, no one in our class congratulated her or bid her farewell. As usual we talked shit and cut class early. All I saw at the end of the school day was her slumped figure glumly hauling her box sowbugs into her car. This is NOT the way to treat a great retiring teacher.
People didn’t like her for her inability to present well and because she got so pissed off at us frequently. Who’s fault was that? Don’t say hers. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not that she isn’t smart, she was probably brilliant. We never gave her a chance to show it to us. Peterson loved Bio and liked to teach it, just didn’t teach it well. She would have been better suited as a college professor, what a shame.

It sure has been screwing me up lately.

Sometimes when I’m really jubilant or excited I try to appear neutral on the outside, or I take those feelings and I bury them. I do this because I know that I’m a sensitive person, and small stuff easily hurts my feelings or brings me down. I know this because I’m weary from being brought down lots of times in the past, and I’m just trying to protect myself from that stuff. I really hated that in the past when I was really happy some kid would come over and say some shit and afterwards I’d feel bad about myself. I’ll try to stop doing this stuff though.

This isn’t like an emo post, just summin I wanted to say.

Recently I’ve begun to appreciate the quality of hardware. After going through two brand new expensive Microsoft keyboards that now both have broken keys, I switched back to my 10+ year old Gateway keyboard that came with my first desktop. Amazingly, all the keys are functional and work perfectly.  My dad also went through many, many optical mice that end up breaking after a few months. I’ve still got my 6 year old ball mouse which also works great. So I guess you don’t need the latest XZ5000turbo-booster 9000 dpi keyboard-integrated mouse to have decent working hardware : - )
