Week: 8
Songs to Remember: Dancing King - Yu Jae Suk x EXO, The Eye - Infinite
A lot of competition, and I mean a lot. Freshmen have so much time on their hands ('cause they're freshmen) and so they got all the time in the world to learn all these dances.
I mean, they got tired of practicing the songs they were gonna audition for and instead just jammed out to other songs. And yes this competition does drive the competitiveness in me to do better, which is a good thing. So, whole day was pretty normal. Dance, we tested on our tap-dancing moves, which went pretty smoothly. Math was a nice group collaboration discussion, break was a nice break, Digital Art was just me making the tiniest adjustments to my finished Angry Birds design, and English was a nice session of reading Beowulf and trying to stay awake, with my head hitting the textbook only once.
Lunch was lunch, Gov was a nice lecture on politics, and Chinese was a nice session of, reading. And finally the moment I've been waiting all week for. After school were the KDT auditions for the 4 songs for Lunar Show, and most importantly, screen-time for Lunar Show. There's only 8 songs, and if you don't get into one of the first 4, you won't be able to get into one of the other 4. Let's say you don't get into EXO's "Monster." Well, then you can't do VIXX's "Chained Up," and so on.
I practiced, but I practiced casually, and not super "hyphy" sort of practice, like last year. That was because I spent about 2+ hours last night practicing. 2+ hours straight, by the way. Auditions took a while, I was there with Jk and Vh, the most prominent of the people whom I interacted with there. Jk was there just to hang about, he wasn't actually in the auditions. And man, you could see the amount of the people, the difference in numbers compared to last year. It was a lot. Fortunately we finished before 5:30 PM, which is actually good time since our deadline was like, around 5:00 PM.
Also, fortunately I only had to audition for 2 songs, which should've been great, but turned out to be a bit mediocre to be honest. I didn't lose pacing, I didn't forget any moves, I just, didn't exaggerate as much as I wanted, and I also didn't smile as much (or at all) as I wanted, heh. But overall I think I'm fine. Getting into these is what matters right now, because if I don't get in these, then I won't be able to get into BTS' "Fire," or, be able to do Sistar's "I Like That," which I consider freelo since it's just, nice screen-time and doesn't involve too many moves. But yeah, average work on my part. Since I was an assistant teacher I thought I wouldn't be judging, but apparently I would be.
And yeah, it was for "Monster." I'm like "Man, so this is what it feels like." Because we were on a time crunch we didn't have much time for introductions (like last year) or uh, time to really "judge." It was like "Okay, that's their name, write it down, watch, write down the stuff they gotta improve on or general notes, prepare to write the next person's name." Some people had the pacing down but forgot some of the moves, some people did know the moves but didn't get the pacing down, etc.
So it was nice to experience that. Overall, not bad. I seriously cannot wait to do some different songs because I ain't feeling these ones anymore. BTS' "Fire" is okay, VIXX's "Chained Up" is okay, EXO's "Monster" is okay, but nothing that really gets me to exaggerate the movements or make them slick and clean. I actually don't even know the schedule for next month. Tomorrow the KDT teachers (ones who are assisting or the main teachers for songs) will be meeting tomorrow at the local library to discuss and judge those who've auditioned, aaand, talk about transitions for our "Light to Dark" theme route.
What's gonna be kinda awkward is judging, like, ourselves or our peers, 'cause some are gonna be judging those who will be sitting right next to them, aka, me, heh. But yeah, banking on getting into ASTRO's "Hide and Seek" so I can do BTS' "Fire." Oh and did I mention that the meeting's gonna be from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM? Kinda early for my taste, which sucks 'cause last night was ass. Total ass. But anyways, it's only 9:39 PM and I'm kinda exhausted. Interacting with multiple people during that KDT session was pretty, exhausting, to say the least. Anyways, that's it for now. See ya.

Songs to Remember:
So I was going to make this a nice, thorough post but due to some shitty circumstances stressing me out and having all the responsibility put on me, this won't be a nice post.
Instead it's just gonna be me saying how I wore my custom hoodie to school, the one with the senior class of 2017 print on it, with some people recognizing it and want to buy it because apparently pink rose floral designs appeal to girls. And uh, yeah, English vocab quiz was too easy, everything else, pretty much the same. Also, it's 10:51 PM, still gotta do Chinese work, and then practice 2 dances fortunately for maybe, 2 hours or so, meaning an hour each song.
It would've been nice to finish practicing these dances and still go to bed at a reasonable time, but I guess not. It'd also be reasonable as to not fucking call AT&T in the middle of the night, wouldn't it? Considering that yes, I do have school tomorrow, and that I am reminded that I gotta go to sleep earlier, but I guess not when it comes to problems not involving me, but are insisted that they do. Fucking hell. Anyways, see ya.

Week: 8
Songs to Remember: Body - MINO
I could count the amount of options I have when it comes to setting up for specials. This series actually has a lot so far when it comes to that, more than any other series.
So season 8's going by pretty quickly and I think it's the repetitiveness of yesterday and today and maybe tomorrow too, as season 8 was surrounded by a lot of new shit or the like, such as the review day for KDT on Monday. Umm, before that was a weekend full of relaxation and League. Today was a calm day, nothing really special. Dance, we just practiced what we practiced yesterday because the teacher had a doctor's appointment today, so, there was that.
Math, a lot of discussion within the table, and just, work in general. There is however going to be a partner quiz next week (not sure how I feel about this) as well as a formula memorization quiz. Really? Just had to be next week, where I'ma be starting my college apps? Come on now. Anyways, no break today since it was Wednesday. Digital Art was nothing special, English was nothing special, just reading. People thought there was gonna be a vocab quiz today but it's actually next week. Not sure why anybody would be worried since we went over them in class, as well as the words being not too exotic. I mean, Ive heard or used the 15 words we've learned before in my life already.
Lunch was alright as well. I wore my "Shinjuku Wave" shirt today, and it wasn't even that hot. I was actually cold in a few of my classes due to the AC. And I did get compliments on, either that or people did notice because they saw it on my Snapchat story or, it's just really flashy, heh. But yeah, lunch was fine, Jh doesn't really show up at our table anymore, not sure why. Jh by the way, not Jk. After Gov was a nice and easy day where we watched "The Daily Show" report on some more of the debate, as well as watch clips from "The Colbert Report" from back in 2011 where Stephen Colbert tried to make a PAC and Super PAC. I actually found that interesting, didn't know what it was until now, and I now I know the basics of setting one up.
Others in the class didn't see eye to eye to me though because some fell asleep, enough so that the teacher was like "I can give ya'll a quiz on this if you want. Ya'll wanna sleep and do a quiz or try to pay attention and that's it?" And finally, Chinese, where, we did gestures for the vocab words and read, so pretty easy, flowy day. I was planning on practicing some dances tonight but I guess not due to some circumstances. I will, however, work my ass off tomorrow. Alrighty, that's it, see ya.

My package was out for delivery from 4:00 AM and it only arrived by 7:46 PM. It was so late I thought UPS had made a delivery attempt and my parents missed it. That's how late it was.
I mean it was still in the 2-week margin, but still, 7:46 PM? I usually get my packages like, before I even get home from school. But anyways, my custom clothes did arrive. I was pretty excited, I waited so long and to be honest, it's not bad. I was sorta disappointed on some of the black articles of clothing, considering the company had to print more than once on them to make sure the colors show up. The white articles were pretty fucking good though. That's an experience right there to let me know to make more white shirt designs, or just, make sure shit is purely cotton and not polyester.
My favorites are the white sweater and white t-shirt ones. The black shirt, sweater, and hoodie are okay, and after further revision, I think my expectations were a bit too high. I mean, looking at my design online compared to how it is on the shirt(s), it's different, but I think the black coloring is to blame. Also the packaging by the way, was total shit. My clothes were not individually wrapped, instead they were all put into this plastic bag, all rolled up together, as if it were like a fucking, monkey fist knot, heh. But, what can you expect from a low-quality company? Definitely reaffirms that that's the last, and first, time I'll be ordering from them.
Also I did get messages regarding the shirts on Snapchat, specifically Vt. Ya'll remember Vt right? Apparently she really liked the Class of 2017 hoodie I made, though I don't know if anybody really knows that I made all of this shit, besides those that I've told. That also gave me an idea. What if, I were to ask Vt to homecoming? Huh? Yeah I know what you're thinking, but look at it this way: we've had prior connections, aaand, she still responds to my Snapchat sometimes, just like today, so, she still finds what I do somewhat exciting. And best of all, if I do ask her, I got nothing to lose. Literally, not even figuratively.
We'll see. But anyways, Dance was just learning some new tap-dancing moves. Math was the usual, also we got our tests back to look over. Apparently I got 80/100 not because I missed 2 free-response (I actually got all of 'em right), but by missing 2 multiple choice. Yeah, I can't believe it either, heh. Crazy shit, but hey, 80's still fine. Also the dude in my group, he's actually pretty chill, and has good relations to that hot chick who's in our group too. Break was fine too. Digital Art, that was fine as well. English, today we actually just did a survey on the Chromebooks, a survey for a research company researching about student shit. Like uh, "Have you ever done drugs" or "On a scale of strongly agree to strongly disagree, how do you feel blah blah blah." Took up 30 minutes of class, the rest was just, fucking around.
Lunch was the usual as well, nothing too spooky or new. Gov was our simulation, of which I found that people were more into it than I thought, which was really surprising. It goes against what thought of the class, with that being, I thought people didn't really give too much of shit about government class. It's actually nice to be proven wrong, this time. And finally Chinese, where we uh, read the book for a bit, did a group "re-cap" video recording, and then watch The Daily Show's latest episode on the debate last night, for the rest of class. And again, it was hot as shit today.
So yeah, got some dances to review before Friday, which is approaching faster than I thought. It's also not gonna get colder until about Thursday or Friday, so I can't wear my sweaters or hoodie 'till then. What I can do though is wear my t-shirts. Alrighty, it's 11:50 PM, see ya.

Monday, September 26, 2016 "Refreshing and Exciting Ships."
Monday, September 26, 2016
Week: 8
Songs to Remember: Pink Funk - Innovator
I like how it's still September. Just means that there's still a shit-ton of stuff that can happen or needs to happen.
So Dance, we started the tap-dancing unit. We learned like the basic "taps" for tap-dancing. It's pretty new, therefore exciting, and at first I wasn't really into it, I was expecting more of, ya know, hip hop, choreo stuff, but this is good, refreshing. And for math, it was definitely refreshing alright. In my past 3 math classes, we never changed seats, or at least, only after the 1st semester, and that's it, that's your permanent seat.
Guess this teacher thinks differently because that was what we did today. I didn't expect it at all, like, I walked in, was about to sit in my seat but I see that none of my table-mates are sitting. I see some people huddle in the middle of the room, took me a while but I'm like "What the fuck, are you serious." Personally I liked our little group, it was just the right amount of discussion and vibe that helped me trudge through these 7 weeks of math.
But now, now it's back to square one. I'm sitting with this one cute chick, this one girl who doesn't really know social cues, but that's okay (she stuck the homework notes into my textbook for some reason). And, this one dude, who wasn't here today but has fallen asleep for some lessons so, I don't know what's gonna happen for group quizzes, but independently, it's all me. The rest of class was just the usual as expected. Break was whatever, Digital Art was nice and relaxing. I'm pretty much almost finished with my Angry Birds design, umm, kinda just wanna get started on the next project already 'cause otherwise I'ma have to spend time adjusting shadows and gradients all class time, heh.
English, is probably the most boring class I got now. At least for Gov, I got table-mates who know how to take the initiative. English, there's, literally nobody I talk to. Also in English, we switched seats. The rule was though, that the 3 columns to the right can only move to the 3 column seats to the left, and vice-versa. Didn't actually take very long, it was pretty much the same arrangement except the people who do have social connections in the class sat together, and that was it. It doesn't really matter where my seat is, as long as the teacher doesn't see my closed eyes when we're reading or shit, then it's fine, heh. And yeah, that was what we did in class, the teacher lectured about something, and then we just read. Beowulf. The condensed version.
Lunch was your usual lunch, if I do say so myself, except DrewN's ABG friend came over and asked for help with math work. Also apparently there was a KDT meeting during lunch, of which I completely missed. It was posted on the KDT page, however that was on Friday, and, I completely overlooked the part where it said there was a meeting on Monday. I blame it partially on like, not being sent a reminder through the group chat, but also mostly on my dumb self for overlooking stupid shit like this, heh. It's okay though, umm, it was just explaining the audition process I guess, which I kinda know.
Gov was just finishing our poster, walking around the class, surveying others' posters and seeing who's our biggest opposition, interest groups that benefit our candidate, etc. Also there was a presidential debate today. I watched about 15 minutes of it before my cousin called me on Skype, and then I got bored, ended up not watching the rest. Plus I had to eat, so. And finally Chinese, where, you guessed it, we changed seats. Wow, didn't see that coming. I sit to the right nextt to this one girl who Jk finds interesting. Behind me was a dude before the teacher switched his spot out for Zl, ya'll remember Zl. And next to her was this dude who I didn't find amusing until I sat with him in our table-group, of which I find to be very solid. And yeah, the usual, first day of a new lesson type of usual.
After school was KDT practice, particularly a review day, reviewing all 4 of the dances we've started learning so far. Unfortunately it was 95+ degrees today, so I sweated like a motherfucker. We did all 4 dances, practiced them, reviewed them, went over them again. I actually got almost all of them down, besides maybe ASTRO's "Hide and Seek" with the speed of the feet movements, but other than that, I basically got all of them down, which I was surprised by. Especially Sistar's "I Like That." I didn't attend the workshop for that Friday, so, I didn't plan on auditioning with that song or learning it or whatever. But, after seeing people do it, the dance itself, the part that's gonna be used for auditions (it's like almost, 10 seconds at most), I was like "Damn, this is fucking easy."
The moves anyways. Execution's a whole 'nother story. And uh, that was about it. I think I'll audition for ASTRO's "Hide and Seek," EXO's "Monster" (of which I'm automatically in, but still), and of which I'll be automatically be put in, for free, for VIXX's "Chained Up." And with ASTRO's "Hide and Seek," I'll be automatically put in BTS' "Fire." I know, I know, it's all guy-songs. On one hand, I get the execution advantage since the moves are meant for dudes, and, for girl dances, execution on my part, I'ma have to step it up another level. Maybe I'll do like, Sistar's "I Like That" or something, I actually really liked the pacing of the song, and it's easy, so, why not.
Towards the end of practice, however, uhh, we all huddled together, the teachers were saying some last-minute comments and concerns, etc. The comments and shit ended up with saying like, "Mamma Mt," just because it and her name goes well together. They then paired that with "Daddy Drew" and it was just, godamn. "So this is how it's going huh? The scriptwriters just needed to include this?" It's just like that one quote. "Never regret anything dear, because at one time it was exactly what you wanted." Doesn't really apply here but, good quote nonetheless. People needed some drama, so, why not just start building that ship? Hmm? Mt was like, you all know how she'd react. To be honest, I was just hot, sweaty, this didn't help, heh. My phone died due to overheating, and, Mt just ended the shipping outbursts with a quick "1, 2, 3, KDT" cheer.
Mhmm, the things that happen every episode. Most are not too too exciting, but that just makes the ones that are, much much more exciting. Anyways, it's 10:54 PM, I only gotta do Chinese work and I'm done for the day. Also, my clothes are coming in tomorrow, so, hype, it, up. Alrighty, see ya.

But, after seeing people do it, the dance itself, the part that's gonna be used for auditions (it's like almost, 10 seconds at most), I was like "Damn, this is fucking easy."
The moves anyways. Execution's a whole 'nother story. And uh, that was about it. I think I'll audition for ASTRO's "Hide and Seek," EXO's "Monster" (of which I'm automatically in, but still), and of which I'll be automatically be put in, for free, for VIXX's "Chained Up." And with ASTRO's "Hide and Seek," I'll be automatically put in BTS' "Fire." I know, I know, it's all guy-songs. On one hand, I get the execution advantage since the moves are meant for dudes, and, for girl dances, execution on my part, I'ma have to step it up another level. Maybe I'll do like, Sistar's "I Like That" or something, I actually really liked the pacing of the song, and it's easy, so, why not.
Towards the end of practice, however, uhh, we all huddled together, the teachers were saying some last-minute comments and concerns, etc. The comments and shit ended up with saying like, "Mamma Mt," just because it and her name goes well together. They then paired that with "Daddy Drew" and it was just, godamn. "So this is how it's going huh? The scriptwriters just needed to include this?" It's just like that one quote. "Never regret anything dear, because at one time it was exactly what you wanted." Doesn't really apply here but, good quote nonetheless. People needed some drama, so, why not just start building that ship? Hmm? Mt was like, you all know how she'd react. To be honest, I was just hot, sweaty, this didn't help, heh. My phone died due to overheating, and, Mt just ended the shipping outbursts with a quick "1, 2, 3, KDT" cheer.
Mhmm, the things that happen every episode. Most are not too too exciting, but that just makes the ones that are, much much more exciting. Anyways, it's 10:54 PM, I only gotta do Chinese work and I'm done for the day. Also, my clothes are coming in tomorrow, so, hype, it, up. Alrighty, see ya.

Not today work, not today. It's 11:16 PM and I've just finished with work. I've also finished with about 3 designs today, so that was also really nice.
I also forgot to explain how there was recent drama involving KDT, particularly a KDT member. That KDT is the one in my Dance class, Sc (hopefully that is the name I used for her). A guy on twitter, one who has been trying to slide into her DM's and shit for a while now, talked shit about her in a tweet on Twitter. The status was like "Can't believe Sc is shady af" or something along the lines of that. And uh, that sparked a lot of outrage, especially with the KDT people who know her.
There was a mini-argument within the tweet between this KDT vet and this one friend of the dude who made the tweet. This all started, by the way, because Sc blocked him from messaging her. And so, he proceeds to make that tweet, and the rest, is history. But really, apparently there was some negative intel that's been on the down-low regarding this dude. He's part of that dance team who performed at that K-Pop showcase, and even though he does go to another high school, people from our school do know him.
He's also apparently threatened to send Sc his dickpics if she won't send her nudes to him and shit. Also he supposedly took advantage of a girl before and well, yeah, shit like that got him blocked, and this happens. Fortunately it turned out well on our end because he proceeded to take down his tweet after Th sub-tweeted him, telling him off and what his problem was. Also because of tweet-boosting, we re-tweeted his tweet and that made us, who're taking Sc's side, seem much more prominent and whatever.
So there's some nice online details. Umm, I finished cutting up some clips of songs to post to the KDT page, as of request of Mh. I also, finished some Chinese work, apparently I have a B- right now, but after I message the teacher tomorrow (not at night or else she'll complain in class about it), I'll get some of those 0's sorted out. And, I got an English presentation due, sometime, this week maybe. Not actually sure, the teacher didn't say anything, I don't recall him saying anything, and, there's nothing on schoolloop.
That's about it I think. Regarding the weather, it's been pretty sporadic. Friday was like the 1st day of fall, and it was pretty chilly that day compared to the rest of the week. This weekend has been pretty hot, considering today's highest was 94 degrees. Tomorrow will be even hotter, getting up to 97 degrees. Kinda sucks since I'll be getting my custom-clothes on Tuesday, and, I can't wear my sweaters or hoodie or else I'll die. I can, however, wear the two t-shirts that I got.
And just as I suspected, after reviewing the KDT calendar for this month, there is a review day tomorrow. As in, reviewing all the dances we've learned. And that is tomorrow, after school, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Also forgot to mention I played some League today. With Discord buddies. Alright, 11:30 PM and with the post done. Nice. And also forgot to mention that I did finish the last two episodes of Qualidea Code last night. Man was that boring, heh. Unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations, it started off pretty bad, got a bit good towards the middle with the big plot twist, really liked that episode/part, but other than that, kinda, still kinda shit. There's still an enormous amount of unanswered questions, personally, I'd only like it for the aesthetics of the characters, and that's it. Anyways, see ya.

Pretty lackluster season compared to the last 2 am I right. Unfortunately it's all pretty much gonna be work for this weekend. Lost of work, and, some more work.
Fortunately, it'll be 1 day closer to getting my fucking custom shit that I ordered approximately 2 weeks ago. First off, Dance, there was no word bank for the test. It was like, what is the definition for this word? What's the one for this word? Describe how to do a leap, etc. Took a lot longer than I thought, also one of the questions was "What dance step is your favorite so far and why?" That was actually worth points, believe it or not.
Math, boy was the test stressful. Out of all the shit I studied (I actually got quite a bit of time in Dance to study), the questions on the test, majority of 'em were not what I mostly remembered. But, I did get 80/100, I was like "I'm just hoping for at least an 80." And whadya know, I got what I asked for, the bare minimum. I probably got 2 free-response wrong (since they're worth 10 points each) out of the 4, but got all of the multiple choice correct, which is, I'll take it.
Break was whatever, Digital Art was whatever (I have a feeling that both of these statements will be forever widely used in almost every episode. Unless shit happens or is planned for break, otherwise, they're gonna be regarded as "whatever"). English, we just, took notes on Beowulf and like the setting, who the characters are, etc. Lunch, now that was actually, there was a KDT teacher meeting duuring lunch. We discussed the order of songs, how auditions are gonna go, uhh, some transition ideas, outfits, how people are gonna get in the songs not taught, etc. It was actually pretty productive, not gonna lie, and the discussion wasn't bad either.
Gov, 5th period, we listened to another lecture, then, started another simulation, where we got in our table groups, make a "website" on a poster similar to like a presidential candidate's website, trying to get interest parties and whatnot, etc. Also table-mates are pretty initiative-happy, so that's always nice. And finally, Chinese, where apparently 5 questions are worth 40 points in total, meaning, if you get even 2 wrong (there's not partial, either you get 8 points each, or lose 8 each), that's 1 letter-grade down. I got basically everything right, besides 4 of those questions wrong. Yep, I ended up with a 56/100.
Fortunately others got 'em sorta wrong too, and uh, yeah, Jk in 4th period got 40/100 so, it ain't just me, heh. Also, both fortunately and unfortunately, homework counts more than tests, so. Uhhh, it's 12:17 AM, will not be able to sleep-in because, fuck me, and yeah, just played about 5 League games with the Discord buddies. ARURF's out this weekend, which is why. Alright, see ya.

It's 11:30 PM right now and this time it is fault that I have yet to go to sleep. My cousin called on Skype 'till 10 and, I was like "Alright, what exactly do I have to work on?" Nothing really, there's no, assignments or work I gotta do that's due tomorrow.
And, considering I have a Chinese test, Dance written test, and math test tomorrow, I don't necessarily have to study, except for math but, I feel like I got the concepts down, especially after the last couple days. So there's that. Also, more t-shirt designs. Anyways, Dance, we just sat and read through our notes, watched people re-do the choreo if they wanted a re-do.
Math was just notes and work, of which is fortunately due on Monday. Break, was whatever. Digital Art, was whatever. We had a sub for our period with the guy with the British/ English accent. Man, do I love his accent. After Digital Art was English in which we talked about monsters. We listed out monsters from films, movies, books, shows, folk lore, etc. People listed stuff out (apparently Bloody Mary counts as a "monster." I consider monsters to have some form of physicality to them). The teacher was like "Wow, I'm surprised you guys didn't say Jason or Freddy." I'm like "Are they really monsters? They're more of like, murderers really."
And so, lunch was whatever again, umm, Gov was just a lecture on presidential candidates and whatnot. Was actually interesting because I really have no idea on how Clinton and Trump got to be selected as candidates. Apparently 16 people ran for the Republican candidate, including Ted Cruz, the zodiac killer. And finally Chinese, where I got a mini-heart attack. So, we do this online work thing where it's like a multiple-choice practice test, we screenshot our results, put 'em on a Google document, turn it into Google classroom. For the past 3 of these type of assignments (stretching out to last year even), there were some questions of which took way too long in my opinion.
You had to match the Chinese characters with the English translations, the pinyin, and vice-versa. The thing is, it wasn't multiple choice with the bubbles, it was like a click-the-arrow-to-pull-down-a-list-and-click-the-term-you-want list. Which is tedious, really tedious, so instead I screenshotted my results (of just random answers), photoshopped it to look like I got it all correct, and put it on the document to turn (I only did this for about, 15% of the questions, and there were like, about 12 or so). So not a lot, basically like 2 questions out of 12 or whatever.
Apparently the teacher decided that she wanted to take closer looks at my work, out of the 150+ students she has, she decides to examine mine close enough that she was able to see that there was a discrepancy in my screenshots. Now the way I photoshopped this shit, I didn't care too much, like, I didn't make 'em "perfect" perfect, just, good enough that if you glance at 'em, it'd look legit. I was thinking the teacher wouldn't look too carefully at 'em, because why, ya know, it's inefficient. But today, as she was stamping our work from yesterday, we had Chromebooks today to work on Blendspace work, she told me "Drew, open up your online homework."
At that point I was like "Aw fuck." I retained a naive look though. You either gotta look innocent, or calm. I was like "Wait what?" And she's like "Open up your online homework." I'm like "Umm okay." I open it up, she points to the zoom button to zoom in, tells me to take a closer look at the first screenshot. I see that it had "correct" and "correct" written twice. I was like "What the heck?" and she was like "How did this happen huh? She had this look on her face like "I know you did some shit," the tone in her voice, fucking scary as hell. " I knew my mind was like "Fuck, fuck, fuck" and so I told myself to calm down, put my hand flat on the desk as to not show that it's shaking, don't confess shit, just stand your ground.
"I don't know how this happened, I just screenshotted my results and pasted on the document without checking them again. Maybe it glitched out or something." "How can that be? In all my years of teaching using this, no other person has come across this problem." She scrolls down to the bottom question, which had the same "61 correct" thing as well. This question made my heart-rate double. "It looks like you photoshopped or something. Did you?" I shake my head like "What? No, why and how would I do that?" I could've said "Photoshop? I don't even know how to use it" which would be a horrible lie, both how it sounds and reality. She just disregards it, changes my grade on the assignment back to a 30/30. When I went home, I took enough measures as to erase my footprints. The last 2 assignments I used the Photoshop shit on, I made a copy of 'em in case the teacher wants to see 'em, unshared it with Google classroom and shit, then deleted it entirely.
I left the one she checked still up because if I deleted it, she'd obviously see it as suspicious and would further prove her claim that I faked my work. And all of this stressful shit, all of it was because I photoshopped a tiny bit on an assignment worth a measly 30 points, which is pretty much nothing in this class considering we do this kind of assignment once each lesson, and, the amount of assignments we have. Now that, was a close one. And of course I wouldn't want to admit it, I mean, with her tone of voice and shit, I knew that I'd get more than a 0 on this assignment, so honesty, that shit's out the door, and what's left is for me to defend myself.
Anywho, that was some intense shit. Will I Photoshop the next one? Probably, but actually trying to do the details as she'll probably target me next time, looking at every inch of pixels on her screen. It's 12:00 AM now, Friday's tomorrow, did not stay after-school to meet Pr unfortunately (and fortunately), and uh yeah, that's about it, see ya. Oh and also a disclaimer, I don't condone faking your homework, but if it for a valid reason, aka, really really tedious UI, then, go for it. And besides, I did 85% of the questions, and I would do all of 'em, if it ain't for that shitty UI. Alright, see ya.

The bulk of Dance is almost over for the week. Can't say the same for any other class really (except Digital Art but that doesn't count).
We finished the Dance testing for now. All that's left is re-do's tomorrow, and Friday's written test. Math, umm, yeah, just review and shit, worksheet, etc. I can see how slow it is, how slow the class is moving. I'm imagining that BC is just all this but no review days longer than 2 days in a row. So far it's been like 3 days, and tomorrow we don't even have our test yet, it's on Friday.
And the weekend's not even like a relaxing one either since I got a fucking appointment at 11:00 AM on a Saturday. Fucking kill me. Anyways, Digital Art was the usual, although the teacher unfortunately took up about 20 minutes of our 49-minute period, showing simple examples of which I am sure every one's gotten a good grip of so far, considering we're 7 weeks in now.
And, English was just, us writing and making sentences for some vocab words, took about half the period, the rest was the teacher talking a bit about urban legends, specifically monsters. We're gonna be reading Beowulf soon so I'm guessing it has to do with a dude who hunts monsters. As for lunch, that was about the same. Gov was literally just me and one other person at our table, the rest were absent. We just presented some shit and that was it. And finally Chinese where we do the dreaded "Ask each other questions in Chinese and answer 'em." I can barely remember shit that's written down, let alone remember the phonetics of words, and then interpret them into English meanings, heh.
I've also come to the conclusion now, after 7 weeks, that this class is shit. Like, it's 85% juniors in here's it's fucking insane. It doesn't, it just doesn't make sense. But anyways, umm, I'll see what happens tomorrow, see if shit gets anymore entertaining. In the meantime, I'ma be waiting for my aliexpress and custom clothing packages, which were both "shipped" last night. Unfortunately, my custom clothes have still yet to leave fucking Texas. It sucks because this is the last time I'ma be ordering from this company, and even if it does arrive late, there's nothing I can do about it, because I'ma discontinue my use with them anyways. So yeah.
It's 11:43 PM, tired, just waiting for break-time again. Content has not been quality for week 7, I can tell ya that. Alright, see ya.

This time it's not my fault that I finished work by 11:50 PM. It was because YouTube apparently doesn't like .avi files so much, and that, my Chinese teacher decided that it wouldn't be too much work to have somebody assemble an online problem document, edit a skit which took time to render and upload, and, do a bootleg video recording (which is assigned 3 times a week now, of which I didn't do because I value sleep).
And all that reminded me that I gotta do a bootleg-ass club meeting sheet to turn in because I'm guessing it's required. What's worse is that my hat order still hasn't shipped yet, nor has my custom clothes. And shit, things have definitely been piling up, indefinitely. Thank goodness I am not planning on attending Friday's dance workshop because I'd be just, just done for the week.
And to spice things up, Pr's gonna be visiting the school on Thursday. So it looks like I'ma have to hold things off for that day, just to see how shit goes. Umm, anyways, Dance was just testing, I did better than I thought. Math was just a group quiz, in which, with the peer-to-peer help and stuff, I actually learned a lot. And also my grade went up 4% to an 87% now, because we probably got a 100% on the quiz, heh.
Break was just whatever, Digital Art was just drawing, English, was just, having the teacher talk about the congress meeting yesterday, what we thought about it, etc. I could see people were dozing off, me included a bit. The teacher spent about 30 minutes of class time talking about it, which is, a bit too much I guess as I was slipping in and out of conscious for most of it. Towards the end we just picked out propositions to research about and shit. And apparently duos/ partners get priority on the stuff compared to those doing it solo, aka me. I really do like the teacher, I just don't like the people in the class. They are, I dare say this, not my people. And it's not a racist comment, not talking about race here, just, I would not associate myself with them.
Lunch was just your average meme exchanges, 5th Gov, we switched seats, I'm now sitting with this girl who sat in front of me (and was in my Chem class in sophomore year), along with a person I don't really know and that dude I sat with for the 1st set of seating changes (cool guy). And finally Chinese, where we worked on our skit. Basically just recorde audio and whatever, I had to edit it all together with a shitty 4 GB laptop with Sony Vegas, oh boy. It worked, and hopefully my teammates get the link during the day so that they can turn it in.
Besides all that, things really have been piling up, and to be honest, it shouldn't. I have 2 classes where I get no homework, and yet somehow I still end up finishing late as hell. It should not be like this, I blame it on math and Chinese, specifically Chinese. There's so much work that even if I fail all the tests, I can still make it with a B if I turn in all my work. That's how heavily weighted it is on work. Bulk work, to be specific.
Other than that, I muted the cast group chat for a bit so I can recollect my thoughts, and so that I don't want to see negativity or stress my self out more than I need to. As the series is named, I'm refining shit. Anyways, it's 12:19 AM now, see ya.
Week: 7
Songs to Remember: The Eye - Infinite, Egg - The Garden
This time it's not my fault that I finished work by 11:50 PM. It was because YouTube apparently doesn't like .avi files so much, and that, my Chinese teacher decided that it wouldn't be too much work to have somebody assemble an online problem document, edit a skit which took time to render and upload, and, do a bootleg video recording (which is assigned 3 times a week now, of which I didn't do because I value sleep).
And all that reminded me that I gotta do a bootleg-ass club meeting sheet to turn in because I'm guessing it's required. What's worse is that my hat order still hasn't shipped yet, nor has my custom clothes. And shit, things have definitely been piling up, indefinitely. Thank goodness I am not planning on attending Friday's dance workshop because I'd be just, just done for the week.
And to spice things up, Pr's gonna be visiting the school on Thursday. So it looks like I'ma have to hold things off for that day, just to see how shit goes. Umm, anyways, Dance was just testing, I did better than I thought. Math was just a group quiz, in which, with the peer-to-peer help and stuff, I actually learned a lot. And also my grade went up 4% to an 87% now, because we probably got a 100% on the quiz, heh.
Break was just whatever, Digital Art was just drawing, English, was just, having the teacher talk about the congress meeting yesterday, what we thought about it, etc. I could see people were dozing off, me included a bit. The teacher spent about 30 minutes of class time talking about it, which is, a bit too much I guess as I was slipping in and out of conscious for most of it. Towards the end we just picked out propositions to research about and shit. And apparently duos/ partners get priority on the stuff compared to those doing it solo, aka me. I really do like the teacher, I just don't like the people in the class. They are, I dare say this, not my people. And it's not a racist comment, not talking about race here, just, I would not associate myself with them.
Lunch was just your average meme exchanges, 5th Gov, we switched seats, I'm now sitting with this girl who sat in front of me (and was in my Chem class in sophomore year), along with a person I don't really know and that dude I sat with for the 1st set of seating changes (cool guy). And finally Chinese, where we worked on our skit. Basically just recorde audio and whatever, I had to edit it all together with a shitty 4 GB laptop with Sony Vegas, oh boy. It worked, and hopefully my teammates get the link during the day so that they can turn it in.

Monday, September 19, 2016 "Stacking."
Monday, September 19, 2016
Week: 7
Songs to Remember: The Eye - Infinite
For starters, I wrote the wrong date today, putting the 18th instead of 19th. Also, things have been picking up the pace and stacking up rapidly for me.
Dance, this whole week is just testing, testing, and testing. Today was testing on our spins, of which I think I got a B on, I'm too afraid to look, heh. Math, we uh, did some practice shit and then work. Tomorrow there's a group quiz and how the teacher's gonna have it is that she's gonna pick 2 of our papers and grade them, out of our group, and that'll be the score for everybody. She justifies that it won't be as easy as we'd think because like, ya know, we only have our minds to use.
Little does she know that a dude in our group's pretty good at this math shit so, let the carry begin. Break, I turned in the club minutes shit paperwork, still gotta do one more piece of paper, and uh, yeah. Digital Art was just me working on the Angry Birds design project, nothing much else. English, we instead went to the cafeteria to listen this dude who was running for congress. I liked him, his ideals were nice, but it did really seem like he was just recruiting youths to help him in his campaign. Yeah you get a nice letter of recommendation, only gotta do at least 3 hours a week of volunteer work for 7 weeks, but like, seems kinda ehhh.
Lunch was just the usual, giving updates to the cast about the Pr shit. I found out that the "exclusive" snaps that she sends to me sometimes aren't always exclusive. For example, the last one she sent me tonight said "Gn streakers." That plural meant something, meaning, she probably got a bunch of other people that she's trying to keep a Snapchat streak with. And to think I was special, heh. Nah I'm just kidding, but like, I finally got to follow her on her Instagram with my incognito Instagram account, and uh, yeah I don't like what I see.
I think it's a lost cause right now and I don't think I'll try as hard to do some nice-ass selfie snaps anymore. Just, let it be. In the meantime, I had 5th period Government today, in which, we did a test. That was it. And finally Chinese, where we had to write shit on the board and whatever. After school was a dance workshop for Astro's "Hide and Seek." I do get the moves, I just can't do 'em fast enough accurately. Also I couldn't keep myself in a straight line so that kinda bummed me out like "Damn what's wrong with me." I also was really hot, like, I know it was 90+ degrees today, others were hot too, it was a humid kind of hot, but, I was sweating and like, I just did not feel comfortable practicing, nor was I looking forward to being recorded.
So I made an excuse to leave early, about an hour early. Anyways, Skype call with my cousin with updates, optometrist appointment on Saturday fucking morning, and, oh yeah. There was this dude, he was pretty "smoll" and, just, lit up when they played GOT7's "If You Do." I'd say he wasp probably a freshman, didn't say anything, and just tore up. And I'm like "Can you uh, can you play 'Drip Drop' for me?" Like, I know I shouldn't be like this, but the competitive drive in me just can't stand by this. And so, gonna attempt to learn Infinite's "The Eye," just like when I learned Taemin's "Drip Drop." It's just gonna be like that. I can't have people upstage me like that, even when it wasn't even directly targeted at me in any way, nor was it hostile or whatever, even if it was for fun.
And it's not to, be hostile, just, a chance, an opportunity, motivation, for me to excel, and say "I can improve upon myself with this." Anyways, it's 12:05 AM now, tired, sweaty, hot, see ya.

Week: 6
Songs to Remember: All In My Head (Flex) (Feat. Fetty Wap) - Fifth Harmony
Things are starting to go back to normal now, minus the new twists to the show. Same old, work that keeps me up 'till 11:30 PM, and uh, same old, you got a test coming up that you don't really care for.
So last night I got about 7+ snapchats from Pr. I waited until the morning to open them, I thought my method of "Aight, last one for tonight, good night" would work, but not exactly. Half of the ones she sent me were also on her story, and involved her just staying up wrapping presents for her little brother or nephew or whatever's birthday today.
But there were a lot of snapchats through-out the day. Every time she sent me one I felt obligated to send one back. On the bad side, not much letters or, texts, or messages, mostly just pictures of her and her signature "rock" hand-sign. On the bright side, I'm getting some good-ass practice with my selfies, heh. Umm, also DrewN's girl actually responded. Apparently she's a freshman, and uh, to him it looks like this shit's gonna die out. He got her Instagram though, so there's that.
As for today, I managed to scrape enough points2shop points to get $5 worth of hats (aka, 2) from aliexpress, which will arrive in 20 days. I've come to like hats now, but I ain't gonna wear them all the time. I don't know want hats to be a part of my normal image. Maybe for dances or shit, then that's fine, but for every day stuff, no thanks.
In other news, gotta turn in CLOG paperwork shit, did not get a chance to work on the CalGrant or FASFA shit. Umm, dance practice workshop tomorrow for Astro's "Hide and Seek," and, yeah. Currently the Snapchat stuff with Pr, it's more of like, "friend" shit than anything. I'm like "Alright, let's just, keep it mellow and if shit needs or wants to get hyphy, let, it, be." Anyways, it's 11:52 PM, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Wake Me Up Before You Go-go - Wham!, All in My Head (Flex) (Feat. Fetty Wap) - Fifth Harmony, Modern Love - Coasts, Mama Said - Luka Graham, Into You - Ariana Grande
Count 'em: 1, 2. It's only Saturday of the weekend, only nearing the end of season 6, and shit has just, taken long and off.
So where do I begin? Just explain it all? Detail when necessary? Sounds good. 11 something AM, I woke up. I still felt tired even when I got a 10-hour sleep. My parents made me go out with them for breakfast at this one place where they serve you shit hot on a sizzling plate. The place was pretty hip, my parents didn't really like the food, for me it was okay. It also gave me some new songs to include into the soundtrack, which is always nice.
I told them I needed to go to the local mall with my buddies at around 2:00 PM, so I arrive there at around 2:00 PM. No others showed up yet besides Jk. We met up and ate at a Chipotle before meeting up with DrewN, Ag, and Jh, then meeting up with Lw and Ek. Before we even start doing any real shit, we stop at this bread shop and just sat there for a while, doing whatever. At this point I was feeling like "Well, I'ma kinda just, here." I didn't feel as if any interesting shit was gonna happen, so, not much energy or effort or whatever.
We were still walking around, heading to random stores, telling memes, etc, while Ek and whoever else was shopping. Jk, DrewN, and I were busy surveying the area as well, for, ya know. It was like this for a while, especially around Forever 21, the hot-spot for it all. More walking, more stores we walked into, etc. Jk attempted to get a girl's number (I guess) who was working at a Sweet Factory. But no, it didn't work. I honestly felt this was going to shit, like "Damn, this was not how I envisioned it." And then, DrewN, just manned, up, we all spot these 2 cute girls in Forever 21, he goes up and tries his luck. And guess what? He got one of their numbers.
I'm just like "Wow, FUCK." Like "Shit, is this really what I needed to motivate me? Friendly competition?" Jk attempted another one too at another girl at Forever 21, but she apparently had a boyfriend, so, that's a no as well. I see all this shit happening, it's getting close to 7:00 PM, Ag already left by this time, I was like "Fuck it, I'ma just do it, I ain't got shit to lose anyways." We walk past Forever 21, I'm like "Yo let me try one, I ain't got shit to lose." Jk points to these 2 girls who were walking by, tell me to go for that one to the right, I'm like "Ehhh, I mean" and at this point I was walking towards them, walking faster, but with hesitation to actually cross the threshold. He was pushing at this point 'cause they turned around the corner and we were losing them.
I'm waling up behind them, before I could tap that one girl's shoulder, she turns around, sees me, I just let it all out. "Hey I think you're pretty cute, can I have your number?" Sounds just like a fucking OG High school white kid method huh? Just straight up? Well. Here's how it went down. She said "Is this a dare?" and starts trying to look behind me and shit. Once she saw that there wasn't anybody I guess, she had her hand out with the notion of like "Well c'mon, gimme your phone." I was still in shock, I'm like, deer-eyed, a deer in the headlights, and, took me a while to comprehend "It's working, she's asking for your phone to input her number, take it out of your pocket and give her your fucking phone right the fuck now, Drew"
I grab it out of my pocket, I had the contacts page already in my processes tab from another thing so that was convenient. Open it up, hand her my phone, she's putting in her number, she hands me it back, I glance to see that it's filled out, she walks away, I walk back to the cast who were hidden around the corner. They're like "So what happened? Did you get?" I'm just in disbelief like "Oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwd." I was not satisfied at this point, probably because my expectations were high as fuck. But now, about 6+hours afterwards, I'm like "This is alright, this is good."
We all went outside, ready to leave, I guess Jk felt the same and wanted to try one more time so we ran around the place, just me and him, looking for somebody with potential. We didn't find anybody unfortunately by the time our rides arried, so, it ended with that. I was sweating balls at this point, from the initial shit, and that running shit. Hooo boy. Went home to a shower, dinner, banter and reliving experiences (scarring ones, heh) with the Discord chat, and, messaging that girl.
She had a unique name, or at least, a very uncommon name. I messaged her saying "Is this who I think it is?" And guess what? 5 minutes later, I get a reply. "Who do you think this is?" "Is this Ps."Yeah. Whats your name?" And that started it all. Lw doubted and said "Oh god, this convo is gonna die." Well, look who has her added on Snapchat, soon-to-be Instagram (I don't wanna have her see my "hoodlum" adventures just yet), a night streak with her on Snapchat, with her suggesting "aye we should get a streak going," and know that she does some sports and longboards, and is a junior, and goes to our school (went, to our school. Was here for her freshman and sophomore year), and is still living relatively close to my area, and, best of all, she actually went to school, my school, just yesterday, talking to a dude who I have in my Chinese class, and, probably saw me (only the back of me though) during KDT's "Monster" practice, when I mentioned that I'm in KDT.
And I'm just thinking like "Damn,. If Jk hadn't pushed me to do this shit, what kinda of Saturday would this have been? What could all of this could have been?" Crazy, as, fuck. I still can't believe it. When did shit start get interesting in the last series? Only counting the series of course, not pre-series shut. Week 6 maybe? 7? 11? I don't know, maybe 6. Still, all this shit, combined with today's shit, all within 6 seasons, that kinda trumps the 1st half of the last series already with just this to be honest.
It's, astonishing. I honestly don't know what else to say, other than "Boy, if this is only the 6th season, I can't wait for the rest." It's 1:40 AM right now, see ya.

Friday, September 16, 2016
Week: 6
Songs to Remember: Monster (LDN Noise Remix) - EXO, Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1 - Kanye West
I'm laughing right now thinking "When have I been this tired when it's only 11:28 PM? And not on a school night?"
The whole school day was irrelevant compared to after it. So, there was dance practice in the dance room today for EXO's "Monster." I, of course, was assistant teacher for it, along with Jb and Ev. And uh, teaching in the room with like 40+ people in there, it was hot. Not figuratively, I was like sweating before we even started dancing, heh. It went alright, not bad.
About an hour and a half after we started practice we had to move outside because our advised couldn't stay for long. We finished practice outside, we recorded people dancing the first part, umm, probably did the dance about 50+ times. Give or take, 5. Overall it was nice. Tiring, but nice. After getting home at 5:00 PM, getting ready and shit, my buddy Ex picked me up at 5:45 PM, we picked up Dv, then headed to this Korean fried chicken place (yes, Korean fried chicken) for dinner at around 6:30 PM.
Met up with Mc there. Food was pretty good, not bad, not bad. We then headed out to get milk tea at around 7:30 PM, took us about 30+ minutes because there was line. Apparently there's always lines at this specific place, just 'cause their stuff is so popular and shit. Drove on to Cy's house to park there, him and his family got home so we drove closer to the pipes. It was Mc, Ec, Dv, Cy, and me exploring the pipes again. We went pretty deep, there were places where we had to climb up into. The graffiti stretched pretty far.
We spent about 15 minutes going in, 15 minutes going out. Ot course, we took some pictures, specifically me, to add to my Instagram showcase. Got out, my phone was basically dead at this point, headed into Cy's house for about 10 minutes to just chill, charge my phone, make calls to my dad to make sure he knows I'm still alive. Chilled for a bit, then headed out to go home. I feel bad for my buddy Ec 'cause he had to drive us like, a shit-ton, heh. Like, I'm just tired just lying here in my bed right now. Imagine him with my tiredness, but with the tiredness from driving placed onto that. Dear lord.
And yeah, my dad did fall asleep. I rang the doorbell twice, had to call him (using my buddy's phone) so he could let me in. Got hone at about 11:10 PM or so. I just didn't even being my laptop into my room, just, changed, got some water, hopped on my bed. That's how tired I am right now. It's 11:52 PM now, gotta go with the cast to the mall tomorrow, oh boy. Luckily it's at 1:00 PM. And I also got a shit-ton of work built up, waiting to be processed Sunday. Alrighty, see ya.

It's 11:52 PM now, gotta go with the cast to the mall tomorrow, oh boy. Luckily it's at 1:00 PM. And I also got a shit-ton of work built up, waiting to be processed Sunday. Alrighty, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Fantasy - VIXX, Strange - MASC
It's amazing how it's almost the season 6 finale already. It's also amazing that now matter how little work I gotta do each day, I always wind up having to do these posts at around 11:30 PM. I blame it on math.
So for starters, Dance was just review. Math, could've gone better, heh. I got shit-on by the quiz, ended up with a 3/10 score, dropping my 85% to an 82%. Too be honest, I kinda deserved it, but, c'mon the questions were a bit tricky. Anyways, break was somewhat, ehh, heh. I did the restroom thing and went at the same time as Lt. Got out, see her "friend" waiting for her. I guess they talk for the rest of break behind the L-building now, and uh, I was just heading out, mayber catch her again some other time, or, something.
I was actually heading back to our table (of the cast and I) but I remembered that nobody hangs out there during break, we just, do our own thing. Bell rang, I head back to Lt's location to see if she's still there or whatever, but then I remember "Oh yeah, she has Chinese 3rd period." I see from the P.E gates (the new gates), like across, that she was already walking to Chinese. I tried to cut her off and just slide in through the P.E gates (the old ones), got there just in time and boom, convo.
And it really seemed that she was busy. Like, I mean she was on her phone. And, she was like, from what she told, was lying that she was responsible in order to fill out this job application. Talked about jobs for a bit, walked all the way with her, up 'till I headed out into the parking lot, see that there was no easy way to get to the J-building from there, proceeded to head out a different route as her to not see me do a fucking circle back.
Maybe she wasn't feeling it today, maybe, whatever. I was thinking like "Damn, did I just play myself?" I'm getting the same feeling as, last series. The whole "I'm kinda just there" sorta thing, where she doesn't really, take the initiative and runs with it. She just, I'd say she just grabs the initiative when she feels like it, and lets go when she's done. I'm guessing she's just, really busy, considering she's doing like 3+ AP classes, I don't blame her. So, I guess that's a lesson learned, and that lesson is, to let it be. I could probably add this to that list of "rules" I started out with during the 1st series, continued in the 2nd, and then left dry for the 3rd.
Let it be, you either gotta fill it with energy, and if you're still bored, hey, let it be. And that's what I'ma do. I do put in way too much effort just to get a small convo in and it's not something I'd like to do everyday. The greeting from lunch to 5th period is good enough as it is. 260 more days of that, and we're just fine. Going off of my Gov teacher's screensaver, showing that there's 260 days left 'till graduation, not sure if including weekends and holidays.
Alrighty, Digital Art, just as you'd expect. There's a quiz tomorrow, in which I'm sure I'ma get a 100% on, it's not that hard. And, considering I wanna be a graphic designer, I SHOULD know this shit, heh. English, we discussed shit, aaand, reviewing stuff for the "test" tomorrow. It's open-notes though, so, I'm expecting this to not be that difficult, no sweating this one. Lunch was lunch, greeting was greeting, 5th period was just discussion, group discussion, etc. And finally, Chinese was games on games on games, and, a little start on our skit. Also, vocab quiz tomorrow, which, I kinda just give up on. I mean I study during SSR, but that's about it.
And also my cousin gave me a Skype call today. I figure it's like, once every week or so now, which is nice for updates. Alright, tomorrow is gonna be jam-packed, hell, not even just tomorrow, that AND Saturday too, because that's when Jk, DrewN, Ag, and I will be shooting "Mall 2: Blank Mall," at, you guessed it, our local mall. And yes, Homecoming is in 2-and-a-half weeks.
So, my Discord buddies and I, including Dv this time too, will be heading out for dinner, then heading to "the pipes" afterwards. Ec will be driving me home so, I'll probably be staying out pretty late, but as long as I call, I think my parents would be fine with it. But before that even, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, I'll be helping out teaching EXO's "Monster" in the dance room for KDT, ya know, that thing that I've been hyped up for all this time, heh.
Anyways, it's 11:53 PM, I'm tired, see ya.

Songs to Remember: I Ain't Gotta Tell You - Ne-Yo
No matter how hard I try, I always finish work by 11:30 PM. It's not something I like since I really do wanna catch up on some sleep.
Dance was review, nothing special. Math was just math, nothing special. Break, now there was no break today actually. I was like "Yes, now's my chance to take initiative." I was surprised to see that Lt still went to the restroom even on Wednesdays after 2nd period. I was like "Fuck, do I wait, or." And, I thought I would time it and just go to the restroom and hopefully by the time I come out, Lt would too.
And believe it or not, it worked. Apparently her next class was Chinese so, period 3 it is. We walked at the back of the school, kinda like when during near the end of the last series in Chinese 2 with Wy. Or, whatever initials I used for her. And yes, that was the first real, real convo after a long time. It was normal though, just talking about classes, the banter on current situations, school, etc. Ya'll know how it is, ya'll have experience Lt in the last series. Nothing much has changed, which, is fine.
Also luckily I don't have to worry about being late to 1st, 3rd, or 5th because my teachers either don't take roll yet or don't care, or didn't even arrive at their classroom yet for reasons. Digital Art was just the usual, nothing special. Our next project, however, is that we gotta design an "angry bird," our very own design of one. I'm like "Yeahhh, it's unique, but, kinda childish? I mean really? An Angry Bird?" After watching that horrid animated movie, I do not want to experience any more Angry Birds.
English was just organizing work, talking a bit, nothing special again. Tomorrow, we'll be playing records on the record player. And lunch, man, yeah that was just normal as well. Sharing memes, etc, etc. Umm, I shared my shirt designs to the cast. I've been really excited ever since I watched this documentary on the act of reselling apparel or products, especially Supreme, and how people are making a living off of it. In no way am I gonna obtain Supreme products, but it's nice to dream, heh. And it's nice to compare it to my own small "brand" that I've got going on, with the custom shirts and shit.
End of lunch, you know how it goes with the alternate route and shit. Gov, just, talking 'bout Marijuana, gun control, cases, etc. And finally Chinese, where we started working on our skit for the lesson, in which the teacher moves us so that kids who aren't that fluent in Chinese, are sat next to those who are in order to help them. And yes, I was moved, heh. I am now sitting next to Ka, and so uh, yeah, back to square one I guess.
Anyways, it's 11:47 PM, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Baby Ride - Luizy, Promise (I'll Be) - 2PM
You'll never find real online hype than multi-tasking by chatting with multiple groups of people with one talking about an upcoming meet and one talking about the dating scene.
So Dance, we just reviewed stuff, added some more stuff to our choreo, and the rest, is history. Math, in which we just did work in class today. Nice, simple, nothing too bad. Now, once the bell rang for 2nd period to end, I went out the door, got a sight of the window of Lt's 2nd period, see that she's in there, walking out, aaand heading into the restroom. I'm like "Aight, guess she does go to the restroom after 2nd period. I'll just wait then."
Believe it or not, I did wait. For the whole break. Once that bell rang I was like "Aight, guess I'll, try tomorrow. Or, something." Like, what the fuck? I'm thinking she left when I had my back turned or something 'cause there's no way she could've been in there for, 10+ minutes. Like, c'mon. Anyways, Digital Art was just what you'd expect. Due date for the letter design's on Friday, which is just enough time for me to finish I think. And English, where the teacher discusses a lot of topics like, I don't know. Records (like, the giant CD's), he has a record player in which he's gonna play us some tracks tomorrow, some more life talk, discussion on slang nowadays, etc. I actually didn't fall asleep for once, probably 'cause it was interesting, heh.
Lunch was the usual, I did get to see Lt, when I went through the alternate route to 5th period. I waved, she did see me, smile, but didn't wave back, but did notice me, so that's good enough. After I walked past her, I saw that people were standing outside of my 5th period, meaning the teacher ain't even here yet. I backtracked and tried to see what her 5th period was but, I couldn't find her. And so, Gov was just discussion on case studies, ya know, like Supreme court shit.
After class, I walked my new route (which I've done before) because I encounter another person I don't interact with often. It's Cy, the Persona girl, in which we cross paths and exchanges waves. She Snapchatted me yesterday about her listening to the new Persona 5 soundtrack. I Snapchatted her back, acting like I'm getting the game the 1st day it comes out, in which, I probably won't. Until, maybe Christmas, or, never, heh. Or just watch let's plays and Snapchat my PC screen so it looks like my screen when she asks me about it. Sad, I know.
And finally Chinese, where we draw nametags, and, recite the textbook. Yeah, pretty much it. And as for the multi-tasking that I've been doing for the past hour, and a half, one's with the cast group chat in which Jc brought up about how he doesn't have a date for homecoming, then it got all into sharing our shit and future stuff and the dating scene, etc. And the other was Discord, in which the Discord chat and I discussed how we gonna organize a meet-up Friday afternoon for dinner and then "the pipes," and like, transportation and shit.
And about 3 hours ago, I messaged Lt on Battle.net. She responded, we played a game of Hearthstone, she logged onto Diablo III and then logged off. Actually a nice convo was had. Still responded like the same Lt that I knew, heh. Anyways, I ordered $124 of shirts, I still gotta do Chinese work (and procrastinating on some), aaand it's 11:14 PM. Alrighty, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Promise (I'll Be) - 2PM
It looks like "seniortis" is hitting me early because I don't really do work, and when I do, I procrastinate it 'till late at night.
Which is kinda shitty since I'd like to not stay up this late and actually get some more sleep considering I get on average now, 6-7 hours each night. As for today, today was not bad at all. There was a little bit of everything in it. Dance was just review and that'll probably be for the rest of the week, just review since next week we're gonna be testing. Math, yeah that was just the same as well. Notes, listen to notes, then work, and the academic/ social banter between us different souls at our table group.
And for the life of me, I could not determine where Lt goes. I waited and it appeared she didn't go to the restroom (as always after 2nd period). I didn't see her leave the classroom, see her in it, etc. Crazy. I was like "Whatever, gonna try my luck tomorrow." Break was the same, Digital Art was just work (literally, 'cause there was a substitute teacher so that's all we really could've done). English, the teacher talked a bit about 9/11, his past and when it happened during his teaching years (he was teaching at a middle school here back in 2001, so, yeah, long time teaching), and, some other discussion stuff, which I did find interesting.
Lunch, was just lunch. I took a different route today, instead waiting a bit then walking slowly around the corner of the KDT adviser teacher's room, since that was one time I found Lt walking with a friend. I attempted to see if I run across her route again, and I did. Waved that hi, and headed to 5th period, in which we did a lot of discussion, writing, notes, etc. And finally Chinese, where we just wrote shit on the board, read, vocab, etc.
After school, man I was I hungry for some KDT practice. I attempted to get a head-start on learning the dance to the song "Ice Cream Cake" by Red Velvet, last night by just, seeing the counts, the little arm motions, that's it. And it did help, because I was pretty confident, I stood in the front a lot. I was comfortable being near I did know, and uh, I saw that many didn't like to be in the front, which I find is normal since that was me approximately, a year ago, heh. And I did feel a bit, powerhungry. Or, egotistical, or something along the lines of that. "Senior" superiority, or in this case, KDT vet superiority.
Practice went and flowed very smoothly. There was actually not that many people, but considering a some KDT vets weren't present, this ain't the final amount. At least not yet, we'll see after Friday's practice, in which I consider the 2nd most hardest dance we gotta learn for Lunar Show (the first being BTS' "Fire"). And as for the recording at the end (of the practice, you know those), I didn't sweat it. I've done it multiple times actually (not being recorded, but, watched) in Dance class already, and so with that, I think the fear's gone away. That and, being watched solo-dancing too. Definitely helps build courage.
Also, the former KDT president visited today, so that was cool too. Anyways, designed my own "senior sweater" design because I didn't wanna spend $35 on a custom sweater from the school in which I don't really like the design, and, a design that was stolen from a student, who was not informed that it was going to be used, and which had details changed from it. Yeah, not supporting that shit. It's 11:33 PM, see ya. Also realized I could reach Ly by the Hearthstone/ Battle.net chat, which, is more casual than, SMS or, KIK (if she still uses that). Cool findings. Anyways, see ya.

Today's Saturday, what do you expect? Especially one where the day before had some bomb-ass venturing.
And due to schedule conflicts, the Discord chat and I aren't able to go urban exploring tomorrow. We will, however, go next week when we're like, basically free. For now, we're just, sitting here and playing League. And for me, troubleshooting Overwatch Battle.net connectivity issues for about 3+ hours, only to find the solution being that I had to switch my PS4 time back to date.
Oh and by the way, I had the craziest set of dreams last night. It's probably the top spot right now for most dreams I've ever had in one night. It ranged from a bunch of shit but most prominent stuff I remember was that I was running away from dudes in black vans trying to catch me, there were Chocopies I was trying to get, I tried blending with some homeless people and acting like I'm their weed dealer but instead giving them seaweed and them being blind while playing arcade games. And, while I'm blending in, I meet some other heroes like Hellboy and I put on Mei (from Overwatch) suit on.
Yeah, pretty crazy. I also woke up a lot from these dreams, then looking at the time to see that I can still sleep, then go back and continue 'em. Tomorrow will probably be the same thing as today, considering I ain't going anywhere tomorrow. Aaand uh, yeah, that's all for now. It's 12:02 AM, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Call Me Baby (YUHE Remix) - EXO, Strange - MASC
And to think I'd cut the finale short by not coming along with the KDT fam. It wasn't what I expected, but it definitely went better than what was expected.
Dance, where we added a bit more to our choreo routine and then practiced it some more. Math, where we just did a worksheet and have it for homework (actually not that much work for once). I waited for Lt to come from her AP Stats class, which is like, about 25 feet from my math classroom. Guess I didn't pay enough attention 'cause she disappeared, even when I did see her in the classroom.
And I know what you're thinking, "Drew, come on now." I've thought about it and with my experience, this time's different, I've "precisely refined" my decision, it ain't gonna be a "maybe," it's a definite "hey let's interact a bit more again." After break was Digital Art in which we showcased our animations to the class. We all got up, left our animation playing while we're walking around the classroom like an art show. I saw some pretty uh, "dank," stuff like Dat Boi and John Cena shit. There were some cool ones though, like, this one girl (I'm assuming) who did some smooth drawings, there was also a Hearthstone one too (of which took me a bit to figure out but once I did I was like "Hey, that's pretty good").
And luckily they weren't actually due today, as in, we didn't have to turn them in, even though I did manage to finish by the end of class. English, unfortunately was just, 2/3 of a video playing of a dramatization of William the Conquerer's spree and, about 1/3 of the teacher talking about, history of English stuff. This period seemed like the longest, like, I was in and out with my eyes closed, the clock was covered by the projector screen so I couldn't see the time. Not a very good experience, heh. Lunch, now that, was actually the same as always.
Gov, we just continued stuff from yesterday, have somebody present, etc. Also the teacher showed yet again another example of how he's chill and respectable about our maturity. He talked a bit about the NSA and how like, they can see if we send dickpics to eachother and shit, even going as far as using the word "dickpics" himself, of which I never thought a teacher would utter those words, heh. And yeah, nobody was like "Oh shit he said 'dickpics' LOL." Nah, everyone didn't really give a shit actually. Really like it how the teacher doesn't really censor shit just 'cause it's a classroom, ya know. Gotta "keep it real."
And finally Chinese where people just banged on drums for the whole period while we're doing "total-physical responses" with our vocabulary. The period also seemed pretty slow, but not as slow as English. I was actually pretty hyped for the KDT social, I was like "C'mon, just a few more minutes 'till the real finale, baby." And it was actually far from what I was expecting. I walked over there with a dude in my class who was planning to "join" KDT, and by that I mean, maybe come to a couple meetings and that's it. Not insulting him, just, I don't think he'll be planning to stay for long, maybe just test out the waters, ya know.
And holy shit was there a lot of people. I knew about, maybe 2/5 of the people there, maybe 1/2 at most. A lot of them were underclass-men and during the beginning it was like "Hey, nice to see you again" and all that to the KDT vets. As for the underclass-men or whatever, I could see that people were in their own little groups of friends. It was pretty cool to observe all that, especially from my standpoint, 'cause last year, I was like one of those people. Nice to see it from more than one perspective.
The sun was out, it was hot, about mayber 75+ people here, took about 15+ minutes to get stuff rolling. We all gathered in a circle, ya know, like from last year, and say the usual "Hi, my name is blank and my favorite K-Pop group is blank." Or, the reason why you joined KDT. The cabinet and I were in the middle of the circle, introduced ourselves first, then came the people in the actual circle. I was more interactive than I thought and I think that has to do with my power-position, just a little bit. I'm part of the cabinet, I'm a senior, I know basically how this all goes, I know at least some of the people here, I got nothing to worry about. Makes me feel like a bit of a role model sorta.
After we finished introducing ourselves and everybody, we started some more bootleg ice-breakers, starting with getting people in groups by having them find people who have the same birthday month as each other, and just talk and know each other's names and shit. Then it came to "find 5+ people who are in the same grade as you" which equals to, find your fucking friends, heh. We just sat together for a bit before the cabinet decide to do start the usual "play songs and mixes and dance to it." They encourage people to join but of course, nobody really joined besides KDT vets, heh.
There were like, about 2 people (in total) who weren't KDT vets who did join in for some of the songs, so props to them. I stayed there the whole 2 hours, the last 30 minutes or so were with Jk, telling memes and shit. I was pretty tired, even though I didn't really dance for many songs at all. I blame it on the weather. Oh yeah and KDT alumni did come, including Th, Dn (the former KDT president), the former KDT co-president, and Tu. The social event ended with like me doing Taemin's "Drip Drop" dance again (Jesus fucking Kristya) and a bit of other songs. For some reason every time I do a solo dance, and by that I mean this one, everybody starts Snapchatting the shit out of it, heh. Pretty crazy.
I was expecting to go home after all this 'cause I was pretty tired, but you can't have a finale end like that, can you? There's gotta be a bit more than that. So, the KDT vets were like "Hey let's go to the former KDT co-president's house." I was like "Damn man, my parents are expecting me to be home, my mom's parked right out front of the school right now." I really did want to go, it would've been me, Ln, Ry (or was it Rh? It's been a while since I used his name), Mt, Jb, Dn, Es (if I remember correctly those are initials I used for her, and if you didn't know, she's the former co-president), Tu, and Ev. I called my mom, I'm like "7:00 I'ma have my friend drive me home," she gave me the a-OK, and it got, excuse my language, as how the kiddies say it nowadays, "lit."
5 people were in Tu's car, the 5 of us were in Dn's car, the 5 of us being Ln, Rh, Dn, Jb, and me. We stopped by this milk tea place located in this plaza right next to my neighborhood, got, you guessed it, milk tea (of which kinda made me wanna vomit after consuming a bit too much of it), and went ahead to Es's house. Nothing special, just that one-story house, with some pets, a living room, the usual. It was the 10 of us there (that's a lot now that I think about it) and adding to that number was Jb's boyfriend and Jv. Adding upon that too was Cy and Kh, both KDT alumni's. We watched this bootleg-ass movie called "Killer Mermaid" on Netflix, and as you guessed it, it was pretty bad, heh.
Dn, Ln, and I stayed 'till 7:00 'cause that was the time we needed to ya know, go home. I just watched the movie, made comments here and there, discuss, you know, the whole "social" thing. And after all this, I was like, "Goddamn, I do have A LOT of friends." It never occurred to me that my social circle expanded so much. I got people from KDT, the Discord fam, and the cast, and with 5+ people in each, with KDT having like, 15 to 20+, that's, that's a lot of people. It's funny because, this series' title was meant to be about me choosing who I associate with more carefully, "refining" my choices, ya know. But, it seems to be a bit of the opposite of that, it's actually grown by a bit.
Also goes to show that a small margin of the series isn't really based on the people in my classes, that, a large portion of the series specials and shit happen outside the classroom, with people I meet or have met, outside of it. It's crazy to think about. Also, the amount of shit that's happened in only the first 5 seasons is seriously exceeding the other 3 by far. Like, the extremity's of these finales, specials, impromptu specials, it's unimaginable, ratings are through the roof right now.
And I might be a bit naive when I'm saying this, but reviewing all this, I can see my progression in maturity. From the first series to now, even if it is only the 5th season, I'm just more excited to see what's to come. Damn is it gonna get hyphy. Anyways, I got home about an hour ago after dinner, meaning I spent 13+ hours from home. I think that's a new record. Well alright, hopefully I didn't forget anything, though I probably did. It's 9:57 PM, I'm exhausted, people who still going hard since it's Friday night, see ya.
Week: 5
Songs to Remember: Call Me Baby (YUHE Remix) - EXO, Strange - MASC
And to think I'd cut the finale short by not coming along with the KDT fam. It wasn't what I expected, but it definitely went better than what was expected.
Dance, where we added a bit more to our choreo routine and then practiced it some more. Math, where we just did a worksheet and have it for homework (actually not that much work for once). I waited for Lt to come from her AP Stats class, which is like, about 25 feet from my math classroom. Guess I didn't pay enough attention 'cause she disappeared, even when I did see her in the classroom.
And I know what you're thinking, "Drew, come on now." I've thought about it and with my experience, this time's different, I've "precisely refined" my decision, it ain't gonna be a "maybe," it's a definite "hey let's interact a bit more again." After break was Digital Art in which we showcased our animations to the class. We all got up, left our animation playing while we're walking around the classroom like an art show. I saw some pretty uh, "dank," stuff like Dat Boi and John Cena shit. There were some cool ones though, like, this one girl (I'm assuming) who did some smooth drawings, there was also a Hearthstone one too (of which took me a bit to figure out but once I did I was like "Hey, that's pretty good").
And luckily they weren't actually due today, as in, we didn't have to turn them in, even though I did manage to finish by the end of class. English, unfortunately was just, 2/3 of a video playing of a dramatization of William the Conquerer's spree and, about 1/3 of the teacher talking about, history of English stuff. This period seemed like the longest, like, I was in and out with my eyes closed, the clock was covered by the projector screen so I couldn't see the time. Not a very good experience, heh. Lunch, now that, was actually the same as always.
Gov, we just continued stuff from yesterday, have somebody present, etc. Also the teacher showed yet again another example of how he's chill and respectable about our maturity. He talked a bit about the NSA and how like, they can see if we send dickpics to eachother and shit, even going as far as using the word "dickpics" himself, of which I never thought a teacher would utter those words, heh. And yeah, nobody was like "Oh shit he said 'dickpics' LOL." Nah, everyone didn't really give a shit actually. Really like it how the teacher doesn't really censor shit just 'cause it's a classroom, ya know. Gotta "keep it real."
And finally Chinese where people just banged on drums for the whole period while we're doing "total-physical responses" with our vocabulary. The period also seemed pretty slow, but not as slow as English. I was actually pretty hyped for the KDT social, I was like "C'mon, just a few more minutes 'till the real finale, baby." And it was actually far from what I was expecting. I walked over there with a dude in my class who was planning to "join" KDT, and by that I mean, maybe come to a couple meetings and that's it. Not insulting him, just, I don't think he'll be planning to stay for long, maybe just test out the waters, ya know.
And holy shit was there a lot of people. I knew about, maybe 2/5 of the people there, maybe 1/2 at most. A lot of them were underclass-men and during the beginning it was like "Hey, nice to see you again" and all that to the KDT vets. As for the underclass-men or whatever, I could see that people were in their own little groups of friends. It was pretty cool to observe all that, especially from my standpoint, 'cause last year, I was like one of those people. Nice to see it from more than one perspective.
The sun was out, it was hot, about mayber 75+ people here, took about 15+ minutes to get stuff rolling. We all gathered in a circle, ya know, like from last year, and say the usual "Hi, my name is blank and my favorite K-Pop group is blank." Or, the reason why you joined KDT. The cabinet and I were in the middle of the circle, introduced ourselves first, then came the people in the actual circle. I was more interactive than I thought and I think that has to do with my power-position, just a little bit. I'm part of the cabinet, I'm a senior, I know basically how this all goes, I know at least some of the people here, I got nothing to worry about. Makes me feel like a bit of a role model sorta.

Thursday, September 8, 2016 "A Clearing For Me."
Thursday, September 8, 2016
Week: 5
Songs to Remember: David Guetta - Night of Your Life, Rose - ELO, Strange - MASC
This series has included so many nods and shit to the other 3 series. And I find that so fitting, 'cause it's like a step down memory lane.
Well alrighty, finished with work, let's get this show on the road. Episode. Dance, we didn't really do anything new, just practiced what we learned, rehearsed the choreo we learned, etc. Relaxing, err, whatever you'd call it. On the way to 2nd period, I was walking my usual route there which was through the path right next to the P.E area and then to the L-building. Walking through the L-building bottle-neck traffic area, I see someone who appeared to look like Lt (spoilers, it was Lt).
And I'm walking my usual speed, she's walking pretty slow. There was a big gap clearing between us. I could literally just walk right up beside her and say "Hey, Lt, how's it been?" I gave myself such a quick time to think. "So. The writers really want me to do this huh? Am I gonna turn it down? What is written so that there's no way I can fuck this up? Fuck it." And I did it. Walked right on up, on the right of her, walking a few steps near her, I scoot on next to her and say "Hey! Lt! How's it been?"
There's always been this metaphorical chasm. It takes so much to cross that threshold, to get to the other side, to get the courage to take initiative. And uh, yeah, it is scary, I feel it every time I do stuff like this. Every single series actually, heh, has been like this. I can recall so many times where I'm walking behind somebody (not "breathing down their neck" close, but, about a 5 or 10 feet distance) and I'm giving myself time to think "Should I, or should I not." This time, however, I told myself "I should" and this is what it got me. She had this smile on her face, her voice sounded like the first time I took initiative for her. "Hey I really liked your presentation." Still remember it.
She said "Drew! Hey! It's been good! Haven't talked to you in forever! What's your next class?" I point to the AP Calc room. "There? With Ms.Blank?" I'm like "Yeah..., heh. Anyways, see ya!" And I'm just thinking like "This is a weird analogy I'm thinking, but it's kinda like eating something and it's just bland, with no flavor, that's how the connection with Lt was for a while. Then when you add something like salt or soy sauce, heh, or whatever, you get a different taste, that flavor back." So that was basically what it was, and it did taste great.
Anyways, there's that, it was nice to talk to her again. Moving on, math, what a clutch. So the quiz only had 2 questions, but it was worth 10 points, and, I got like, the 1st question sorta wrong, the second question was easy as fuck. The teacher had mercy on me (for most people I guess) and gave us partial credit, netting me a 7/10.
Holy, shit, that was nice. Anyways, nice discussion in math between my table-mates, break was break, Digital Art was Digital Art, I got about, 85% done with my animation which is extended 'till tomorrow. English was another bore-fest unfortunately (I really do wanna see the crazy shit I know the teacher can provide). And lunch, was pretty much lunch. There was a CLOG congress council whatever, meeting today in the library. The other KDT cabinet has already went to at least one, and I haven't, so I had to go, which was fine.
I sat down, just, sat down, and listened. They really just talked about upcoming events on campus like, Homecoming rally, decorations, parade, etc. Merchandise, our fundings so far, blah blah blah, etc. Nothing really major concerning CLOGs, so that was good. We went back to class after it was over, Gov was just another group activity where we look in the Constitution to answer questions. I just really despise this sorta stuff 'cause it is getting stale. Like, the teacher, he's fun and all, but the activities are just, I don't know, there. I guess it's maybe the subject, I mean, American Government ain't all that much to woo about from my standpoint, heh.
And finally Chinese, where apparently people get really really hyphy during Kahoot.It and Quizlet games. So that was it, tomorrow is gonna be a hell of a finale with some KDT vets coming back for the KDT social, including "newbies" like, Jk here. I know he's not really gonna "join" join, but it's nice to have him around. Aaand uh, my buddy Ec's gonna attempt to get his license tomorrow. Also, my boy DrewN got a date for Homecoming. All's crazy. I'm expecting, the unexpected. AAlright, it's 11:19 PM, see ya.

Wednesday, September 7, 2016 "Free On Fridays."
Wednesday, September 7, 2016
Week: 5
Songs to Remember: Divin' - Geeks
Yeah I've been becoming more and more tired even though I do sleep before 1:00 AM. Combined with morning exercise in P.E, walking in the hot sun to all my classes (it was 85 degrees yesterday, 90 today), ones that are across the campus from each other, attempting to stay awake during lectures, it all doesn't with my energy.
Speaking of energy, Dance, is alright. Just compiling the stuff we know into choreo and that's about it for now. Math, oh boy. Today was such a long and boring lesson that we gotta continue it tomorrow. No kidding, it took more than the whole period to get through about 2/3 of it. And I ain't using the word "boring" for nothing. A dude was trying his hardest to stay awake, and even me for a bit too. Even the teacher admitted she'd have trouble staying awake if it weren't for her own talking that's making it possible, heh.
And by the way, quiz tomorrow. As for Digital Art, apparently the Photoshop animations are due tomorrow, did not know that until today so, I'ma have to rush some shit to get it done. However, I don't get any points taken off for being late, but, I just, I just wanna deal with it anymore. It's tedious, it's, not what I like, I like taking my time with stuff and the animation is just too rushy, at least in this context. Still doing the letter design though, albeit putting it to a hold for now.
English, another lecture. Or, video actually. Pretty normal, pretty, viking-ish. Lots of talking 'bout William the conquerer, heh. Uhh, yeah. Lunch was the usual except the cast and I were at the Dragonboat club meeting for today. It does seem pretty fun, you get to go to cool locations, it's hyphy, etc. But, not sure if I can deal with that plus my KDT schedule. I don't know.
5th period was Government, in which we talk and do an activity on the U.S Constitution, and finally, Chinese, where we practice writing hanyu pinyin and, random shit. In other news that is not like the usual, umm, the convo with Ct's still going on, albeit I do admit that I suck at texting. I take like, 30 minutes in between replies, usually more, up to maybe an hour or so. And it's not really constructive responses either, it's just kinda, whatever.
The real gem today was Yn continuing on the uh, the texting. And I don't blame her for taking a while to text back either because I have seen really, really slow texting. And that's okay too, because I'm doing that right now, heh. Anyways, I asked about college a bit, then she asked about the Lunar Show and stuff, etc. She said she'd really want to see me perform and uh, got into some large amounts of text. I opened up my notifications and see her last text being "Usually I'm free on Friday" and I'm just like "Awwwwwww yeaaah."
'Cause you know, it's nice for some larger guest appearances, or, cameos. She said she went back to school to visit last week but forgot to tell me, which is whatever, and that she was going to buy me and her friend some milk tea (which is apparently a sign of thankfulness and reward and grace or whatever here. Like seriously, I've heard and seen it so many times. "C'mon, I'll buy you milk tea" is an example of what I usually hear). She then asked what day I'd like my milk tea, any particular day or whatever, free on Fridays, etc.
I had a great idea of having her visit on Friday, during the finale with KDT, which would've been cool, but, she's helping her brother move out to college this week and next week (just in the mornings or whatever), so, unfortunately that'll be a no-no. But she says she'll come during lunchtime though, which is fine with me, heh. So yeah, really, really nice of her to like, give the fans a bit of remembrance. And also, some nice memories, like, I totally forgot about the time she brought me hot chocolate until she talked about getting me milk tea. Now that was something to remember.
But anyways, it's 11:18 PM, I'm tired, see ya.

She then asked what day I'd like my milk tea, any particular day or whatever, free on Fridays, etc.
I had a great idea of having her visit on Friday, during the finale with KDT, which would've been cool, but, she's helping her brother move out to college this week and next week (just in the mornings or whatever), so, unfortunately that'll be a no-no. But she says she'll come during lunchtime though, which is fine with me, heh. So yeah, really, really nice of her to like, give the fans a bit of remembrance. And also, some nice memories, like, I totally forgot about the time she brought me hot chocolate until she talked about getting me milk tea. Now that was something to remember.
But anyways, it's 11:18 PM, I'm tired, see ya.

Week: 5
Songs to Remember: Airplane - JERO
Although we're only on season 5, it feels like it's been forever since the beginning of the series. Like, just the other day I forgot what season 1 premier's opening theme was.
I've had about 3 or 3 nights of shitty sleeps so far, so I'm not in the best shape I can be right now. On the bright side, season 5's almost over with the season finale approaching in about 2+ days. Also, things are slowly, very slowly, starting to pick up. In Dance, we actually did something enjoyable, which was a little bit of choreography mixed in with our jazz moves we've learned so far. And it wasn't just me either, others thought it was pretty fun as fuck.
Math on the other hand, it's more or less just tedious work. No lesson today, just, literally do work, that's it. Break, yeah that was the same too. Digital Art? I actually got time to work on my design, and yes, it still does suck that the class goes by so fast. Unfortunate. English, now, we're still learning about the history of English and damn, not gonna lie, I think it is the most boring kind of thing that I've ever encountered. Not sure if the ambiance and white noise of the period contributes to that, or, the teacher turning off the lights and fucking around with my melatonin levels, I don't know.
But whatever the case is, my eyes are just shutting like shutters of stores on Purge night, heh. Anyways, lunch was what you'd expect, except these past few episodes have been Ag-less, in fact she wasn't even at school today, probably sick, and, maybe that was why she wanted goddamn tea when my buddies and I were at that mall that day. Government, probably tied with the history of the English language for being the most tasteless. The people in the class are okay, it's, whatever. However, all these simulations and analogies just get a bit tiring after a while.
And especially the tests or "assessments." They're pretty easy on their own considering we get to use our notes and shit, but, in order to get an A in the class, you gotta submit a "level 3" question to the teacher, have them review it, determine if it's a good enough question for you to attempt to answer, and then, only then will you have the chance to earn some more points for close to an A. If you do like, some of these "level 3" questions, you might bump yourself to an A-. Otherwise, the highest you'll get is a B+, which, although I'd prefer an A, it's whatever, I don't have much motivation to do that much extra work.
Chinese, on the other hand, yeah it's kinda just bulk work as usual, heh. We did change seats today, in which I sorta lucked out and am now sitting to the far left of the classroom, next to the wall opposite the door into the classroom, next to this one Junior girl, whom I have sat next to before, but that was during Chinese 1. She seems to take the initiative if given, however, I think she'd prefer sitting next to her friends than me to be honest.
Aaand, after some seats swapping, I'm still sitting in that spot. However, there's only about 38 students in the class, resulting in us 6 people sitting in our column, to be split into 2 separate groups. And yeah, she's not in my group, but it's whatever. Instead, my group members are this one Junior dude whom a lot of people joke around with, and, this one girl whom I assume is a Junior, and, was not here today.
But other than all that shit, there were some nice touches to the episode or season. The convo with Ct's still going, albeit slow and contains long waits in-between texts, which to me is fine considering I can't have my phone out for the whole period of my classes. And, as a surprise, even to me, Yn, ya'll remember Yn? She messaged me saying hello and how are you doing today. Damn, it's been, about 5+ months maybe? Since the last time I messaged her. I actually forgot about her until she messaged me.
I heard a double-vibrate on my phone and I was like "Fucking A, another Chinese class remind notification." I open it up and I see a Google Hangouts message, I groan, I look a bit closer and see "Hellooo?" written. I read the name and I'm like "Holy shit it's Yn," heh. That was, that brightened up the episode, the day. It was nice hearing from her again. Anyways, I created a bunch of more t-shirt designs today, I'm hoping to create like a whole bunch, maybe 10+, then start setting up something to like, maybe get the word out and see who likes the designs enough that they'd by a shirt of it.
And my goal isn't really to make a profit, it's more like, I don't know, experience? For fun? For fun. It's just something I like, and the benefit from people buying shirts that I design is that, the more I order in bulk, the cheaper each one is, allowing me to grab one for myself, heh. And yeah, each design is something that I, would wear myself. My designs are all based upon whether I would wear it or not. Alright, that's it, got a little tidbit of Chinese work to finish and we're good. It's 10:52 PM, see ya.

Monday, September 5, 2016 "Designing Before Work."

Week: 5
Songs to Remember: Love Paint (every afternoon) - Nu'est
Hey, it's actually a Monday night, which means the season's already started. It also means that it's time to start on work.
Now I'd be finished by now, had I not use up about 3 hours or so in creating more new t-shirt designs. On the bright side, I am satisfied on how they turned out. I am, however, not satisfied that I forgot about math work, otherwise, I definitely would be finished with work right now, since I just finished Gov notes, in which I thought that that wast the last thing I need to do.
So nothing really special happened today, unless you count some graphic designing as special shit. But yeah, an okay, relaxing day. Also not gonna lie, I've been kinda obsessed with geocaching (the hobby and idea of it, I have yet to experience it) and like, urban exploration in general. And yes, it was all because of that thrilling night at the pipes. Man, was it freeing. Anyways, it's 11:12 PM, see ya.
