I'd be a terrible president. XD I'd doodle during political meetings...

Er, well, school this year is interesting, to say the least. We're getting a cupachino machine in the library, as well as couches. Oh, and my Home Ec. (Personal Family & Development) teacher is like... four foot nine. So she stands on people's desks to get our attention.

Spirit week is coming early, and there's no cosplay day this year (;___;)... but there's Hawaiian day, Crazy Accessory Day, 80's day, UT vs. AM day, and spirit day. My friend is going as Link for all the days. It's going to be awesome.

oh, and in history, I actually payed attention and got a question right, wOOt, beware my greatness. the only class Im strugling in is Auto CAD, didn't seem to hard at first, but that one thing we're doing, not sure what it is, but its freaking hard, Im not even gonna lie, we started on it last week, and Im still working on it... lol, I just got it done, but now we're suppose to put dimensions and stuff in it, oh yeah, and I got like 4 A's in arow in Geometry, and I thought that class was gonna be hard. psh.

You think it's easy now? Just wait until you get into proofs.

Nah, I found proofs fun after a while. Even tried to do some on my free time. ;)



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

the only thing I do not get is nodes and networks, total confusion, I get everything else though.

MagmarFire

Networks are easy. You just need to figure out the paths in the networks and put them into figures of lines and endpoints. Then count the paths leading to all the nodes; when there are more than two odd nodes, the network is intraversable.

So far everything is great here, made a couple new friends, went to a few pep rallys, the only thing is Geometry, it can go from being fun to hard and back at any time.

I forgot how annoying getting a bus and train combination to school is. The bus was late (damn public transport!) so when it got to Station road we had to RUN for the train, we only just made it and I nearly got trapped in the automatic train doors. I spend around two hours travelling to/from school a day, it's such a drag.

I smashed a glass in art while we were taking photos and drawing our faces in baubles but apart from that it's been good.

Do you ride the train daily? Over here in the states only urban areas have subways, so I've only riden a train a couple times when I was young.

alical

Yeah I ride the train twice every day but it's not the subway, it's aboveground.


^That's the train I get (well not that exact one but that model)
I don't live in a very urban area. Mainly cows.

Yay!  Upon my regular 8 class day.  I'm taking an individual study of Law.

Augh, school is draining my free time. It's actually quite lame, only because we have more periods, but less time. I mean, I can't do anything in Chemistry; we always run out of time. We have to go home, read the experiment, write down everything that's supposed to happen, and then rush on the project in class.

Not to mention I have no free time to draw or work on anything. All I can do is dance to The Melancholy of Haruhi's ending. >:

Ah nothing like the dancing of the "Save our world by Overloading it with fun Suzumiya Haruhi Brigade" to calm one down, I love that thing!

Anyway on Friday we were all driven insane by the CCF's drumming and marching. I mean seriously what school needs a combined cadet force. They're all idiots who just because they get huge black boots and a camouflage uniform think they own the place. They go on all the time about how they get to shoot stuff, pfft who wants to?
