Monday, Monday

So it's really Tuesday now but I'm still in a Monday mindset. I got my schedule in homeroom (Mrs. Haddock, formerly Ms. Underwood) and found that I had nothing to complain about at all for the second straight year. Last year I heard people complain when they only got half their classes with their best friend. Now it's funny because people seem to have less, though that's still ont much to complain about. I know a lot of people got screwed over since the main classes they wanted in their schedule all seemed to take place fifth period or something like that. Now those people do have the right to complain and I'm sorry they didn't get the schedule they wanted this time.

My Schedule

1. Latin I - Yates; Mr. Yates is one of the awesomest teachers ever and he likes our class since we are nowhere near as bad as the classes he's had the last two years.
2. AP US History - Thomas; I fell asleep in class, like, twice in the first week, and we got to start off the year by reading about Indians... Oh boy. I'm stranded in the back corner right now but I know plenty of people in the class and she said we will eventually be able to move from alphabetical order. I hope.
3. AP Calculus BC - Johnson; The class is small since it's an AP course and there are just five other juniors in the class, including Jack and William. So far I have made wishes at 11:11 every day and MJ has been going over our past-math-we-learned-ages-ago summer packet all the way up until now.
4. Spanish IV - Knoll; This is the only Spanish IV class, so the room is packed. I believe every single desk is now occupied. I can tell this class will be interesting this whole year.
5. AP Chemistry - Ewart; We got free stuff right away, so I can't complain. She really likes her AP classes and, dare I say it, Mrs. Ewart may actually be one of my favorite teachers. I sit next to Kejing at seat #14, one of my favorite numbers.
6. AP Language/Composition - Colombo; I think that's the course title. Every year I have figured there is no way my English class can, um, drop down a level so to speak from the previous year. It may have done so every year ever. At least Chanyang is in the class with me, or else I would be stranded in the worst class to be so.
7. Piano I - Miller; I have a class in the Band Hall and it should be the easiest one! I've decided I need to know how to do stuff and playing the piano would be great. I made a list of languages I have to master, too, so I can woo people with my Spanish/French/Italian/Japanese accent.

Extracurriculars are also starting up. Brain Bowl's first meeting is Wednesday in Mr. Shoenberger's room, now 9201 at 3:15PM. People should go that, hint hint.

I had a gloomy narrative to tell, kind of like the way I wrote of my last day of school back in May. It may seem sort of surprising that I can be serious, but it shouldn't really. Anyway, I won't tell it. I can still remember the last day of school clearly, though. I mean crystal clear. Come to think of it, time probably seems like it's passing more quickly than ever because my memory is getting sharper so I don't forget this kind of stuff so I can remember it as if it were yesterday, which it might as well be if not for three months worth of other memories crammed in between. It was the same the summer before that, too, and I can still remember that last day of school.

The Classes of 2010, 2011, and 2012 will be the only three classes that had K-12 education entirely take up the '00's decade. Now I can't wait two more years.
