Rise of A New Era (yeah right)

A new year, a new blog. Actually my old one I had accidentally deleted (don’t ask me how it just happened lol) so this was born out of the ashes. But it’s alright; it’s time for something fresh anyway. So as I ponder over what to say in this post, I shall tell you of what has been going on these past few weeks.

So few know, I have finally reached my junior year of high school. I can tell you so far it is one lonely kick in the ass. Lonely is because my beloved friends had reached the end of their high school days and are now enjoying their days of college or whatever else they do. But I has my darling daddy/grandpa Becca, so it’s a mix of goodness and nostalgic love.

And a kick in the ass?

Yes, lots of stuff going on. My teachers this year are a pretty good mix of fun and seriousness, it is just too bad about how much the scheduling in the school got royally f***ed up. But we won’t worry about that. With that and now the school play, it is quite a hassle right?

Wrong.

With the play, I’m just part of the Running Crew. Meaning that I don’t have to be at any of the rehearsals until around October for tech rehearsals, my only job (actually it consists of me and two other people) is to move props around swiftly and silently during the actual show. Hopefully that I can do without problem, though I am a bit sad I’m not part of the actual cast I can suck it up. A positive side of this is that I can go to rehearsals anytime I wish…it’s just a matter of getting a ride home is the issue. But it’s nice to know that I can do something other than go home (if I can call it that any more) and be in a fun environment.

So with that it might be fun to tell all you readers about my schedule and classes. Granted the first day, things got switched around so I was practically lost on the first day, because I’m just that silly. For those who don’t know how my school works, we have odd and even days. Odd days are periods 1, 3, 5 (this one we have every day), and 7. Even days are 2, 4, 5, and 6. Enough said, here is the list of places I have to be for six hours a day, starting with odd days:

1st, American History: Apparently the room I’m in is the old detention room, which made me laugh when I heard that. My teacher is a sweet lady, she taught middle school kids before, not sure how she got into the high school business. The work she gives us is really easy so I’m always done early. She, like most teachers, is fun to have as a teachers but she expects us to get our shit done. The class is a mix of juniors and seniors, so that’s to be expected.

3rd, Acting 2: Ahh Building 6, how you make my heart sing…and how you kill me with laughing fits. So far the things we have done in that class leaves me with a good feeling inside. The teacher (one of two that run the drama department) has started this thing where she would post quotes on the board, we write them down, take the time to TRY and think about them, and then we discuss them at the end of the week. And by God are they refreshing, it really makes you see things through the theatre eyes in a way, actually there is no way I can describe it. It’s one of those things you really have to experience for yourself, then again that’s really my opinion.

5th, Teachers Aid: To be truthful, I was actually aiming for T.V. Productions at first, but ended up here thanks to the schedule funk. But to be more truthful, I didn’t even know what class this was at first. Once I found out, I knew EXACTLY which teacher I would love to work for—Mrs. Johnson. She was my Creative Writing teacher in my sophomore year and by far one of my favorite teachers around. She is just sweet and caring, with her own…unique sense of humor; but we all played along. She is the teacher who granted me the nickname ‘Her Perkiness’, for my very cheerful disposition. No other words can describe how much I admire this awesome teacher who came from Canada. P.S. This is where I’m doing blogging and RP’s until further notice.

7th, Environmental Science: The class is actually really easy, the teacher is awesome, and sadly not much else to say. Well there is the fact that some of the kids in that class look at me like I’m from a different planet. Why? It’s just because I am either reading or writing, that’s it. To prove a point on something, I gave a simple, three sentence explination on how you can brew part of a rose into tea and it would help with colds. The reaction I got from the class was priceless, I was bombarded with questions—sad and silly questions—and I simply sat there and shook my head. Fun afternoon that was.

Now for even days~

2nd, English 3: This is a class I would consider as my favorite, even if it’s all vocabulary and an project already, it’s an awesome class. The teacher has her fun moments, but she is mostly 100% serious and I have a lot of respect for her because of it. Since it’s morning and lately I am having a hard time keeping myself going until later in the day, this class is a real kick in the butt so I’m wide awake for this.

4th, Chorus: It was funny on day one, a lot of people came up and asked me ‘You can sing?’ I know I’m NO WAY a wonderful singer, but as far as my standards go I do an ok job. My buddy there has been in that class pretty much all of her high school years I would think (too bad she’s graduating this year), and she’s a wonderful music person. She has been a great help trying to get me to sing better, as far as being louder and proper breathing. I’m starting to see that I need to work on a few things…but I’m getting better.
Like I said, 5th every day, so if you skipped it before then you better scroll back up. ^_^

6th, Math College Readiness: Aye math. My toughest subject, sometimes I wish I had a bit of Miss Snuggles math genius built into my brain…I am her granddaughter :P. But anyway, this class is for those who passed the math portion of FCAT last year, a mix of Geometry and Algebra (bleh). Again its mostly a easy class, the teacher is a bit jumbled up but she’s alright.

Whew, finally got this typed out (no computer equals major setbacks). I have a few more things planned out so expect more to come. And if anyone wants me to work on a specific topic, please leave me a note in the comments below. Now if you will excuse me…I finished just as the bell rung, yikes.
