This lj is partially f-locked.
add me as a friend?
But hey, I don't bite. ;D
If you'd like to be friends, you can do so by clicking on blinking Taemin banner above.
If I message you asking why I should be friends with you--don't get intimidated.
I really just want to know you, before I let you have access to my f-locked stuff!

Honestly, there's not much that gets f-locked--I don't have much to hide.
It's probably stuff that I don't want certain people to see, if they happened to stumble upon my lj.
Plus, there's artwork that I don't want people to just up and take.
About my artwork: remember to read my rules on my profile!

But if any case of art theft were to arise, I know where to go first! ;D 
If you wanna know about me, then please, read my introduction post.

LMFAO, I feel like an idiot. I was searching rigorously for a like button for a comment I agreed with.
AND THEN I REALIZED.

LIVEJOURNAL IS NOT FACEBOOK.

D8

I wish it had umm, like buttons so I could express my agreement w/out having to clog the post w/ an extra meaningless comment that says "A+" "+1" or "THIS EXACTLY." "mte"

You know? Yeah.

Eventful, or lame whatever, bi-weekly update.

Let's see, where to pick off from...

I found this on omona. IT'S PURE TREASURE. Will be using a lot.

LMAO GD, FORREAL.

Okay, okay, I'll actually update.

Well I took the ACT on the 14th, and I'm still waiting (ever-so-impatiently) for results.
/crosses fingers. PLEASE BE ONE OF THE FIRST ONES. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE OH MY.


Then on Tuesday, we had our UIL Competition for Varsity 3A Bands, blahbbity blah.
Got 2, 2, 3 on stage.
Got 1, 1, 2 in sight reading.

GDI, SO PISSED ABOUT THAT 2 IN SIGHT READING.
STUPID JUDGE. PISSED.


Then the next weekend, I attended UIL Regionals at Lubbock. 


A. FIVE. HOUR. CAR. RIDE.

IT WAS HORRIBLE!!!!! /sobsob. ;AAAAA;

But hey, I made it to State finally, gdi. SO HAPPY.

My precious medals. 6th Spelling & Vocabulary, 3rd Headline Writing.

Since Freshman year, I always thought, "OH GOD. I SUCK. I'LL NEVER MAKE STATE. /sobsob."
But now that I have, it's more like, "CHYEA, LIKE I'LL ACTUALLY EVER PLACE AT STATE."

lol I love myself. So sarcastic. xD

Well at least it's a free ticket to some place other than this mundane school!
URGH, I really need to get the flip away from here! Two days at Texas Tech was NOT enough!
Esp. since most of that trip was spent in a flippin' car. 


Wanna go to Corpus Christi or Galveston again.

One of my close senior friends got an amazing scholarship: the Gates Millennium.
I SO JEROUSSS YEAAAH. (trans: I'm so jealous, yes.)

So happy for her, though. I just wished she didn't have such an inflated ego, omg.
She's a cool girl though. SHE'S GOING TO HOGWARTS SCHOOL OR WIZARDRY Bryn Mawr.

Look at it!




Yeaaaa, see?


I have a soft spot for gorgeous college campuses, especially the old-looking ones with old architecture (Georgian, Victorian, Roman, uggh, ANYTHING.) ;u;


ANYWAY. The Gates Millennium pays for up to 5 years of college, in full, to any college of your choice. It's given to 1000 students each year, AND NEXT YEAR ONE SHALL BE ME.

Hopefully. I hope I don't chicken out in fear of rejection and failure.
Oh gosh. I can see it now. ;~~; DON'T DO IT, FUTURE SELF. FINISH WHAT YOU START.

It's like eight essays and an interview.
But totally worth it. Totally.

Well then. 


I'm having a little crisis. Wondering what I should be.
Mechanical Engineer or Dentist?
Then I'm thinking about Electrical engineering, and computer, and civil.

I really don't know right now.
Can't wait for this summer. I hope it solidifies my choice.

I have summer residency at UTA with UBMS--omo, I'm so happy my bffffffffff will be rooming with meee! :DDD
YESH. I don't have to be so conservative anymore! xD

WE'LL.
BE.

DORMIES. ♥
. . .


lmao.


You know what "no me gusta"?

I have a final exam essay due in two days. Anyone understand how to MLA format for intext citations with online database sources with and without authors and article names? I thought I had them right, but well, they weren't. boohoo. I READ THE BOOK AND ERRTHANG OK. IT DOESN'T COVER DIDDLYSQUAT. Really, why does it have to be so complicated. GRR.

Oh, we've been TAKS testing all day. Can't wait to take my last TAKS everrrrrr, tomorrow. :D
It's Science, ahaha. I feel really lame.

Kbye. ♥

I forgot about this, haha.

So there's this dipstick funny drama at our school. There's this one teacher who thinks he has power to FAIL students who are in his Dual Credit class. Yeah. Funny. Except, YOU ARE NOT OUR TEACHER.

He's not even qualified to teach DC English, because he's a History major.
Anyway. This isn't right. He's not allowed to teach us the material out of that college book like he's trying to.
In public schools, they're not allowed to preach about or shoot, even discuss, RELIGION.
Just like how government textbooks don't discuss the cons of Capitalism.

IT'S NOT LEGAL.

I made a joke about writing to the Texas Board of Education.
But I was serious.

He's not allowed to do this, is he?

Here's a better scene of the whole situation:


I am part of my school's ENG 1302 course, along with another 50 or so students.

My HIGH SCHOOL DC instructor is absolutely batsh*t crazy on drugs. He shall be addressed as Mr. H form hereon.
About him: He loves to use analogies, parables, and other literary ways to speak in such a way that no one will understand him. He also likes to yell and use excessively flamboyant hand movements. He'll constantly ask for feedback about his tone of voice, even though he never takes the advice.

For the first semester of English DC, I had ENG 1301. Got an easy 100 (actually 102), but I did try on my assignments. I did. I was very happy with the COLLEGE instructor we had, and I hoped we'd get her for the second semester, too. From hereon, I'll address her as Ms. D.

Apparently, our HIGH SCHOOL DC instructor dissed on our COLLEGE DC instructor, so Ms. D did not want to teach ENG 1302. Well, fml. I bet Mr. H said something along the lines of, "YOUR CLASS WAS TOO EASY. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ACCEPTED THOSE ASSIGNMENTS THAT THEY SPENT ONLY 20 MINS ON AND GAVE THEM HUNDREDS. ISN'T THIS A COLLEGE CLASS? THEN ONLY ACCEPT COLLEGE LEVEL WORK! YOU SUCK AS A PROFESSOR."

Yeah, okay. So we were given a new, more hardcore instructor for our college course. She's Mrs. J.

Since our DC course is all online, we, the students, spend all of that class period on the computers.
Now, this is Mr. H's problem. He likes to roam around the room and see what everyone is browsing/doing.

It was prom season (late Feb-early Apr) so a lot of girls were looking for prom dresses, and stuff.
Whenever he called them out for it, they would make snide remarks and say it was none of his business to tell them what to do. And I agree to some extent. 

I wouldn't always do work in that class, either. I'm not one to judge. And I guess he got tired of us "not doing our work" and "not preparing ourselves for college," so he had a talk with our Asst. Principal, and she's letting him teach us SEPARATELY from the college work. We'll have assignments and tests just like any other normal high school class, EXCEPT...

English 1302 is NOT really a high school class. It is a dual credit, high school AND college, class. Yet, he is treating it like it is two separate classes. On his syllabus (lmao), he even put, it is possible to PASS the college course, and FAIL the high school course. What is this f**kery. I CAN'T. I JUST CAN'T.


I do not know what to do. Now I have TWICE the workload, and just not enough time.
GDI, I have college entrance exams I could study, or scholarships I could apply for.
I could care less about his ~high school assignments~.
Since I'm a good student, I'll do the work.

But this isn't right.
