Songs to Remember: U Beauty - 100%

        My Chinese teacher told our class about how we should never hold hands with a girl, or else it'd result in a baby. Not that our hands biologically creates a baby, but that it leads to a chain reaction. Good advice.

        So World History's pretty boring as always. We had a "test" today. Not really a test since we could use our notes, but whatever. Pretty easy. We had a substitute today, one who sub's at my school often so most upper-classmen know her. My teacher's out today to attend a funeral.

        English was pretty bootleg today. We didn't really do anything but watch a couple videos and discuss, but I ain't complaining. We watched a copyright video of which I forgot what it was, and another one called "A Fair(y) use tale" (you could look it up on YouTube". It's basically a mash up of Disney movie clips, in which the characters talk about copyright. What's bootleg is that the person uses Disney clips, in which Disney is probably the most butt-hurt company on copyright. I mean, ya'll know the dispute between Disney and deadmau5's logos? Disney chooses now to try to sue deadmau5.

        When I walked through the door to chemistry class, I was expecting... What was I expecting? Anyways, I sat down at my desk and the teacher's like "Everybody get up. Now get down!" Just kidding. He told everybody to get up 'cause he's switching seats and I was just like "Oh my goooooddd. No whammy, no whammy!" Apparently he changes seats every 3-4 weeks. Freaking-

        I was staring intently at the teacher's clipboard, thinking "Please, just this one time. Make the next 3 weeks for me not suck, please". He called 2 columns of seats (out of 6), and I was like "Maybe I'll have a chance after all". And then he called my name. I sat down a that seat with an empty one next to me. I was just praying "Please, please, please, please". He called for the seat behind me. He was gonna call the seat next to me next and I was like " Big money, big money, no whammy, no whammy!" And I didn't hear him say Yue.

        Well f***. I was waiting for him to call for Yue's seat, and I was like "Wait, when is he going to call for Yue" and then he was like "Yue, your sitting right there". And she moves up to the table in front of her original seat. She still sits at the lab table to the side of the classroom, now just 1 seat in front of her. I was like " Wait, what the f***, I'm in in the exact same spot, just one seat to the left". And Yue's in the same spot, just 1 seat in front. I was like "Well, this was unexpected. At least I'm sitting next to a cute girl. And El's cute friend is sitting in the back of me since I just recognized her after the teacher called her name.

        God, volleyball is some hung alright. I still don't know if i suck or not now. I mean, I hit the ball at least. Sometimes I do some nice passes, sometimes I hit the ball over the net, sometimes I just fall flat on my face trying to dive for the ball. My teammates keep criticizing (not negatively, in a helpful way) me for trying trying to hit the ball over, when I should pass it over (think over-hand to an under-hand if that makes sense). And when that one time I could spike it over, I pass it over. And I was like "Fffffffffff". I think I have unseen potential. You'll probably need a microscope to see it, but it's potential nonetheless.

        Lunch, hell, etc. You know, reading a book for 15 minutes in a class where you dislike with every bit of your soul actually seems longer than 15 minutes. Also I struggle to keep my eyes open after SSR, which is everyday after lunch in 5th period class where you either read books, or do homework, depending on the teacher. And guess what my math teacher picks?

        Anyways, I go to Chinese class and the teacher checks our homework. We then do Chinese bingo (not really bingo, just, we wrote down phrases in boxes and she calls out phrases and if we have them, etc). We dont actually match one line like in regular bingo, we got to have this like weird backwards L shape thing. First 5 people who gets bongo get either jello, or candy, their choice. Apparently about 10 people in class needed 1 more phrase to get bingo, considering after the teacher called out " Ta shi" (which means "He is"), 10 people yelled out " bingo", one of those 10 people being El. After we did the bingo thing, the teacher told us about how we got to study for the test tomorrow (of which is multiple choice, thank you based teacher. Say, what's the Chinese phrase for thank you?).

        The teacher also explained how she's going to change seats soon and how we're never going to be sitting with the person next to us ever again, so say your good-byes now. And I was like "Ffffffff, well, this wasnt going anywhere anyways so, it's for the best". Then the teacher was like " I'm going to have to sit you all boy, girl, boy, girl for you all to get used to sitting with the opposite gender" and I was like "Hey, maybe it won't be so bad after all. No whammy, no whammy".

        So, El and I walked down my route at the end of the day, with her always going that route on Mondays I guess for some reason. She and I talked about school stuff 'cause that's all I know how to talk about. It was nice trying to get close to El, but whatever. And yes, I know seats don't end the interactions between people, it just makes it harder, that's all.

        Anyways, for an update, I got 2 tests tomorrow, 1 being a math test and the other being a Chinese test. Going to have to sleep on my textbook tonight to absorb absorb that knowledge. Oh and uh, Destiny's coming out tomorrow. You know, that video game everyone's excited about? Most pre-ordered game in history, that's how hyped up it is. Probably going to get it, just for the fact that it motivates me to finish my homework first before I do any shenanigans. But in complete honesty, I just want to play it.

        Sooo, I guess I'll get to studying, even though it's 11:39 PM. Gotta get those dreams about numbers. See you tomorrow.
