Songs to Remember: Where No Eagles Fly - Julian Casablancas + The Voidz

        Just when I was righ about to fall asleep, I thought "Hey, it's the weekend, s*** happened. Might as well do a real post?" Yeah, yeah sure.

       Alrighty, let's get it started. World History, quizzes, yaaay. Last Friday there was one, today there was one. 2 quizzes within 2 weeks? Is this my real World History class? But seriously, the last time I remember having quizzes was back during like September and October. The quizzes weren't that hard though. Most likely because we're allowed to use our notes on em'. Which I have no problem with whatsoever. It shows that you benefit if you choose to take notes or not, soo it's actually a good system. I sure hope I get another teacher like my World History teacher and my last year's English teacher, someone who's chill and doesn't really give a s***. Nice.

        Well, next week's gonna be hard. As in, I'ma have to go hard in the paint to write an argumentive essay about race. Mmmm, fun am I right. Within the first month from getting back from Christmas break and we got an essay which counts toward this s****y new common core s*** that California education is putting on us. Mhmm, can't wait. Especially when it comes to race man, like, the only reason why it's still going on is because people keep mentioning it. Like when Morgan Freeman was asked about black heritage month and how it's to support against racism and stuff and he was like "the way is to not talk about it". Like, come on, it's Morgan Freeman.

        Chemistry, yeah it became boring now. Damn, and back when the year first started, when I Yue sat next to me, I thought "Now this is gonna be good". Well... Anyways, we did a pretty relaxing lab today. We just rotated around all the lab tables and measuring the mass of stuff like silicon, wax, salt, etc, then record them and find out the amount of moles for each and the like. One of the things we measured was this gold nail which was actually real gold. It was pretty big, like 8 inchss in length, about an inch wide. First time I ever touched base gold. Oh and Yn doesn't really talk to me anymore, mostly because I'm too lazy to talk to her after I exit the door. I'm pretty sure that when I post a new selfie, it'll go again.

        So I've became friends with two dudes so far in this table tennis unit for P.E. The dude I'm partnered with seriously reminds so much of my old best buddy from elementary. I think now it's just 'cause he looks like him. Probably. We actually did pretty s*** today, from the 3rd table we got sent down to the 6th one. Whenever I'm against a team that I feel is below me abd my partner's skill level, I often hold back on my shots. I don't know why, maybe 'cause I'm passive, sensitive, and worried about making them feel too bad from getting beaten. Then we end up throwing the match 'cause I miss my shots when 'cause I start hitting it TOO hard.

        The mindset I want is just loud. That's what I need. Just, think, f*** it. If things start to go s***, I mean, it's not like things weren' t s*** already am I right? Gotta think of a motto to go by when I start hesitating. Something like "Risk it for the biscuit" but I only use that for specific situations. I don't know, I'll think of something. Anyways, I backed out of asking Vt for a picture today 'cause I just walked by. Usually (and by usually I mean all the time) I try to walk close to people and hope that they say hi to me first. I've already had experiences, numerous experiences where I've said hi to someone and they didn't even hear it. Kinda like how fluttershy tried being loud and ended up saying "*whispers* Yay".

        She keeps shouting this one dude's name right, I've heard it numerous times already. Now, I know what I'm thinking: just, go f*** it Drew. Just go do whatever and if things go s***, things were already s*** to start with anyway. Now that I think about it, asking Vt for a picture would probably make her more happy than me. And then, I could cross that off my list of s*** to do, and that would be asking someone for a picture. I was thinking of saying like I needed a picture for a project, but that's so, ehhh. Might as well just ask for a collage.

        Math, oh how it's gonna go hard in the paint next week. We're switching back to different textbook, not sure if it's our old one or not. Good bye small amount of homework, hello #1-33. I'm pretty sure the new textbook has more words in it than numbers. And with that, makes trying to understand the lesson harder. Also, group members doing well. As a group. One of em's pretty cute. Found out she had a Facebook, tried adding her, I think I'm blocked now. But hey, at least she doesn't think I'm a phantasm that needs to be avoided. Now that's nice. Oh and uh, test tomorrow on what we learned so far with the new textbook. Oh how the scores will fluctuate, fluctuate hard.

        Ah yes, Chinese. Today we had a test, but first, gotta change them seats. I actually forgot we were changing seats today, and when I remembered I was like "Oh right. Oh yeah". Seeing as how this one cute girl was in front of me and picked a number out of the box, I just hoped that RNGsus was with me to pick out a number in her group. 5. I got the number 5. Seat number 5 I knew was not close to her at all. Going to my seat, I see that my group member from my last group was sitting beside me. Another group member by the way. I was like "Alright, one one of us better get a move or else". Right behind me sat this one dude who I'm buddies with. Our group only had 3 seats by the way. As in 3 of the 4 seats were occupied by a person.

        Moving students around who ended up with their previous group members/ are in groups of the same gender (not boy girl, boy girl). I was thinking "Hey, wouldn't it be funny it be funny if El was moved to the seat next to me?" And when moving the dude next to me, the teacher said "El, can you please change seats with him?" I was like "Oh. I didn't really mean it okay? And if it happens, it really would be a turn. And we all know there's gotta be more plot twists I mean come on, when was the last time I got one?"

        But luckily, El still hasn't thought like Frozen and let it go, so she was like "Um Laoshi, I prefer to sit in the front". And she was like "Alright" (by the way, Laoshi means teacher in Chinese. I seriously don't know why she does that). I was like "Phew, oh hohoho, now that would've been a turn". Instead, and I see Zi sitting next to El, the teacher was like "Zi, can you please switch over there with Bh?" And I was like "Well Drew, you asked for it, now you got it. Have fun knowing you gotta be nothing more". And I do know that, especially for everyone in those community clubs like Key club and Interact club.

        Behind me sat this one dude whom was with our Rubik's cube area during last semester's finals. Did you know that 1st semester finals are supposed to happen during January, but for our school we gotta do it right before Christmas break? It was actually supposed to be this time, but a couple years ago they moved it to December I guess because kids would forget a lot of s*** over the holidays. I don't know. So anyway, I'm sitting with Zi next to me, a dude behind me, and most likely a not so Chinese-fficient girl (who was absent today, most likely will sit in that spot on Monday). I said it because she it's easier to identify later on who it was. Not trying to be offensive or putting down anybody, just describing with something I know by. And now that I'm thinking about what I've written all here, it honestly looks like a train wreck of a writing.

        Probably because I haven't written a real post in about a week. So, the Chinese test. I hoped there was no hanyu pinyin part (which is like romanization to help pronounce words), buuuut there was. The test was out of 100, there was a hanyu pinyin part, worth 20 points, got em' all wrong, ended up with barely a 72/100. But hey, it's still C. Zi got 96/100 and seemed pretty bummed out about it. To cheer her up about it, I was like "Hey, at least you didn't get a 72/100, heh".

        My buddy from tutoring always walks with a female buddy exit the school and then walks back along the route he took (same as my route) thought the back of the school. I always see him, he always reminds me about getting my KDT jacket, which I don't really think I deserve because I only showed up 2 times and just whatever. Today he was like "Ay, the Lunar show's coming up soon. Wanna go with me to see it?" And I thought for a bit, knowing that I'm probably not gonna do s*** during whenever that show will be, so I was like "Sure". He was like "Aight, see you there!" Damn he is one good buddy. Too bad he's a junior, he's gonna graduate before me and go off on his own adventures soon. But hey, he's been a real good help. If only everybody had a buddy like him, heh.

        So, I got work this weekend. Both physical and digital, heh. Ummm, just, do wjRver I guess, it can't get s****ier than this. There were a lot more s*** I probably could've talked about, buuuut I forgot. Gonna have to check my binder for the written notes about em' to remember em'. And it's not actual notes, it's literally like a sticky note with like one sentence so I can Rmemeber bootleg moments so I can write about em'. And now of you'll excuse me, I must see you tomorrow.
