Sadly life is settling into a routine here. I actually started making little schedules down to the half hour for how long I will work on what once I got home. (But something about knowing you'll be working on Homework or College stuffs all night is really unappealing.) Also, I haven't been feeling all that great as of late. No idea why. For one thing, I got all these itchy hives from who knows where. Probably from the new laundry soap which is REALLY annoying because I have no idea which clothes are contaminated. ><'''
As for school, it was SO not fun this week. As in MAJORLY stressful. The worst was in BC calculus we took a mock AB test. Which, basically was a review of everything in AB.........which I have yet to learn. T-T I got 7 out of 28. Yea, THAT bad. Good news? Everyone sucked to some degree. XD The highest was a 17, which was an 85%. Then a large group got 75%. The rest of us got a 65% (which btw, I was NOT the only one who got 7 which made me feel MUCH better considering they HAD taken AB). The better news? She ended up not taking it for a grade. XD The catch? We gotta retake it next week. :/ Don't think a week is long enough for me to learn everything for AB. Oh well, I did the math. Even with a 65% for a test grade, I'll still make like a 94% in the class :P. TAKE THAT BC CALCULUS!
On a totally random note: I looked HOT on Friday. X) No idea why I felt like saying that, but it twas a fact. Got some compliments, mostly from guys which I found quite funny. (People I know though, most with girlfriends so they didn't mean much by it.) If you're wondering what I looked like, I had a super tight purple sleeveless turtleneck, black pants, heels, and a long silver necklace. Showed off how slim I now. XD All for fancy Friday <3.
Speaking of Friday. In AP Government, we're having elections for president of the course. I'm not running of course, but I helped start this PAC (a group who supports a candidate who supports our ideals) with two other girls in my class. They wanted a PETA PAC, I wanted a Green PAC, so we made the Green PETA PAC. XD Well, we had our speech written out to tell everyone what we were about but one girl had been out and the other was leaving early, so I was stuck reading it. I thought it was quite funny because, even though I hadn't planned on reading it, I was dressed all fancy XD. I even added my blazer so I looked very professional. It matched so perfectly, because the beginning of our speech was extremely professional and serious. Then suddenly we're like "We want a candidate who will save the tree animals like cows and vicunas and the money trees they live in!" Then we get serious again saying we want to stop wasting ink on printing power points and how we're killing the trees by doing so. Add emotion by DEMANDING change. Suddenly switch to "do it or the vicunas will eat you like they did to the last person..." Finally, "we bid you good day."
So got a standing ovation xD. Best speech yet. :)
But that's pretty much it! For reals. (sad right? :( )
Live, Love, Llama,
~S~
Ps: if you're wondering what a vicuna is, it's kinda like a llama <3

Stressful or stressless saturday?
Yesterday was stressful. .-. Actually, kinda a lot of stress lately. But, the only way you can really tell are my pimples XD. Stupid break outs.
I got my schedule changed! That's right, I'm taking SIX AP classes (including AB Calculus) and YES, I am crazy. :D. I like my AP Gov class though. It's interesting, and by interesting I mean entertaining. The teacher's cool, we have people who are the kind that make the teacher think and bring up good points, and the topics need actual brain power. Lots of reading to do, but so far no mindless paper work. But now I have a test on Tuesday and I missed the first week and a half of class. D:
Speaking of tests, I had my first ones. ><' First was AB Calculus. It wasn't that bad, just the one I THINK is bonus gave me issues and I gave up on it. Chemistry was next and was MURDER. LITERALLY MURDER. 1 min and 12 seconds is NOT enough time to do a stoich problem without a calculator!!!! 30 minutes for 25 problems, and only 5 weren't limiting/empirical/math stuff. Mrs. Pitman (my fawesome teacher) was like, "you should be on problem 15 right now." I was on 9. Day 2 of Chemistry was better. The free-response caught me off guard at first because some parts seemed so simple that I made it harder than it was. .-. Biology was on the same day (Friday). Of course, the ONE free-response I hoped we would NOT get........we did. So far, I've made an 82 on the multiple choice, crossing my fingers for the free response.
Other stress has been lunch time. .-. Ting and I used to sit outside, but one day she had said she'd wanted to sit with the German foreign exchange student. We did. ......the problem was I really didn't like the other people at the table. :/ I was sitting sticking out of the table, the odd person out, while the juniors (they were all juniors) spoke really loudly and obnoxiously and I just found it to all be very annoying. So, basically I decided I didn't want to sit there. .......problem is.......where DO I sit? Basically, I went back to the Asian table which is weird without Ting. They're all nice about it though, except they're going through their own group dynamic problems and the table goes silent often and awkwardly. I need a niche. :(
I'm addicted to chocolate milk now. X) I drink so much now, and it makes me so HAPPY. It's like my energy boost. :D Yesterday, I had two bottles instead of one and I was jumping around like a maniac. ^^'
SUGAR!!!!!!!!
On another random note: WE SAW A BEAVER FROM OUR HOUSE. IT LIVED IN A HOLE IN THE NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE!!!!!!! It was so cute X). Kiko wanted to go over and get it, he was watching it from the back porch. Apparently they found out though and chased it away and covered the hole. :( What entertainment will we get now?
Also, I HAD A BUFFALO BURGER TODAY. ^-^ IT WAS YUMMY!!!!!! It had caramelized onions, cheese, and special catchup with cumin in it.
WE'RE GONNA GET A GRILL REAL SOON. <3 (I think tomorrow!) When we do, we're gonna have a grill party for the three of us. :D We're gonna buy EVERYTHING we've been missing and EAT IT ALL UP! NOM NOM NOM. We've been without a grill for at LEAST a year, and I've missed it so much. T-T
No more procrastinating my homework :(
