Week: 42
Songs to Remember: Fun Boys - BTS, View - SHINee, Driving - A.cian

        Fun fact (well, in my opinion), Zi isn't actually American, she was born in Asia. I, never knew that. I just assumed, heh. The more you know.

        Ah yes. Season 42 (I was about to say week, even though I do list it as "week"), the last season for 100% Chance of Bad. It's gonna be a hot one alright, and I'm not just talking about the finale. I mean it's goddamn 68 degrees right now, and it's 11:30 PM.

        Alrighty, let's get to it. World History, is really really like, dragging down my soul in a sense. Today we did a bootleg review game where we gotta get in our groups and the teacher's gonna announce some questions. We have one person from each group write up an answer on the board and we get imaginary points for that. A few people weren't cooperating some the teacher threatened to cancel the game and have everybody just study silently. I'm just like "Uhh, please?" Like, at this pace, I don't get much review than if I actually did it myself. Like, I don't wanna sound mean, uhh, I guess I was just tired in the morning and- yeah I was tired. Because finals are tomorrow and the next couple days, I didn't want to actually do work, I just wanna study at my own pace.

        Oh yeah, fun fact: it's the teacher's birthday tomorrow. She's turning 27 which is, ehhh. We had a little birthday card being passed around class today and each secretly signed it. Tomorrow I'm having the World History final. I actually got the notes sheet done today, most of the terms are just common sense really, but you can never be too sure. I'm taking a guess and say I'll get a 90%. At least. And one funny quote, which I haven't actually told many quotes lately like I used to, was his this one girl was like "This finals thing is messing me up, look, I bought like 50 Hi-Chews" (a type of Japanese candy). Then the teacher was like "Well, we all make decisions in life". Cracked me up.

        Next is English. I got an English final after my World History final, which is tomorrow... HA! Got 'em! Just kidding, heh, I already took it dreadfully last week, over the course of, each day. Today we actually did nothing. Like, literally, we just AAT there with our phones, went around and talk, and uh, oh- fun fact: it's Am's birthday today! Happy birthday Am. See? It's fun right? There's like 10 birthdays this week. Rough estimate by the way. Tomorrow we're probably gonna, I don't know, do nothing again, umm- oh s***. Just realized it's gonna be a 2-hour period tomorrow. Huh. Maybe we'll be watching a movie or something. Hopefully there will be food.

        Another fun fact: I completely forgot about that vocabulary book we had back in 1st semester for English. It was lying under my pile of, uh, whatever, on my couch/desk. Completely forgot about it, only until today did I get reminded of it. Hoo. Thank goodness the teacher held off that book for this semester. If we did have to do write and answer questions and sentences from that, I think I would've lost even more sleep, heh. No thank you.

        After that we had break, which I just go to my usual spot with my buddies and I just read Reddit articles on my phone. Nothing uh, really special, except that I can see Yn walking by herself after getting brunch. I really find it weird how I can spot people that easily. Very, very weird. And scary. I think it's a videogame thing. Anyways, Chemistry, one of the main classes for this week. The teacher asked us each, one by one, if we had any questions regarding the optional review packet he gave us last week. I didn't do it though, I spent the time making my notes sheet than doing the unnecessary work. Very good method for getting people to ask questions, and for including everyone. He literally asks each person individually "You for a question?". He did twice.

        I noticed that Yn had a very interesting looking box (looked a lot like a shoebox) and I was like "Hmmm, is that a birthday gift?". Turns out, it was. It was a pair of white converses (is that the right term? I don't really know my shoes) which was drawn AMAZINGLY of landmarks, like the Golden Gate Bridge. I was like "Damn! My gift doesn't even compare to that. Damn, hey, where do people even get ideas like this? That's actually a pretty cool idea". Oh yeah, fun fact: Yn's birthday is tomorrow. I messaged her a "Happy early birthday" and she was like, and I quote, "Sounds like im a celebrity or sth lol=)", in which I reply "you're always a celebrity, everybody knows who Yn is" and she's like "Lol that sounds weird, but since its a compliment then I trust you:))". Hey!

        I can't believe that it has been 6 weeks of swimming. Thank, the, lord. I hate P.E, heh, and I don't wanna get any darker, being in the sun all the time. Especially because our school is outdoors and open, instead of being indoors. Anyways, we had our treading and diving test today. The teacher us do the treading test, in which we had to, well, "tread" (float basically) for 2 minutes straight. Legs get tired real quickly. But, I managed. After, we did the diving test which was, well, diving. We get one dive, and uh, yeah. I think I passes. While practicing, I think I must've done like 5 dives and so it got kinda disorienting. 'Cause you know, water pressure, water, just, water in general.

        We also had a floating test for some reason. We got to choose to either do a back float, or front float (you know, like a dead body). I was leaning towards front float because it's pretty easy acting dead, and I've also watched a lot of horror movies involving dead bodies floating in water, so I thought it's be pretty easy. But then I thought about how I gotta keep my arms and legs up and stuff, so I was like "Nahhh" and went with the back float. I floated for a bit, about 4 seconds, then I was slowly sinking and the teacher's like "You're sinking". She told to me to work on it a bit and I was like "Aight". I mean, if you wait, of course I'ma sink. Also, fun fact: final exams are 2 hours per class (so basically 8:00 AM normal school start time, then 12:20 PM out of school time). That means I'm going to have to spend 2 HOURS swimming. Oh my lord. I didn't even realize it until today.

        Lunch was the usual. I just, ate my lunch, with my buddies, and uh, yeah. Nothing real special. Oh wait, there was like a dance battle at the side of the theater. Well, more like a "Show off your moves" type of thing. They, basically just played music and people started dancing and a crowd formed. Eh. I'd much prefer a fight. I don't think there's been a real major fight this semester. Shame. Always one major fight per semester, that's how it's gotta be. Even when there is no fight and just a crowd, I yell "Fight! Fight! Fight!". Slash sarcasm of course.

        God, I could already feel the allergies coming in again. I asked my buddy, Ek, about the free-response test we're supposed to have today for math and she said it was easy. I was like "Ah s***, that means I'm gonna fail it". Then she was like "It was only 6 questions" and I was like "That's even worse. Only 6 questions. Less questions, means harder questions!". And then she was like "Don't worry, Mr.Liao made the test" and I was like "...OH THANK YOU BUDDHA. PRAISE BASED LIAO". Mr.Liao was actually my Geometry teacher last year. I hoped to get into his class for Algebra II/Trig, I got the teacher I got now. After finding out that he was the one who made the test, I was like "Aight, that's it, I'm all set". I go in, teacher passes out the tests, all ready, and there's a story to read.

        It starts out with like a boy, named Bob, who is trying to achieve a girlfriend. He wants to show off his physique and muscular body, so he runs track. And, if girls were to find him creepy, he could just run away with his new running skills. I was like "Man, this is some OG Liao math story s*** right here". Everybody laughed like 15 seconds into the test. The teacher's like "Huh? What's so funn?" in a sarcastic sort of manner. The story definitely lightened the mood, made there be less pressure too. And that's why I like him as a teacher, because no other teacher does that. I mean, what teacher can you say that has written a math story regarding a dude who wants to get a girlfriend with bootleg methods? Yeah, not that many.

        The test was surprisingly easy. The first 3 questions dealt with standard deviation and proportions, good thing I studied last night and looked back in my notes for that stuff. The next 3 questions dealt with having to do a scatter plot on a calculator. That was fairly easy as well. 'Course, whenever I say a test is easy, I end up with a s*** score. I actually had spare time, about 10 minutes. I went back over each question, did the calculations, they all seemed correct. We'll just have to see.

        Chinese was different today actually. Involved more of group bonding. Well, at least with Ic, Zi, Jc, and I. We were given vocabulary words, had to write out questions on a piece of paper, and then after that, moved one table over. We then had to answer (verbally within our group) the next group's questions that they wrote. Had a lot of fun with that, especially when mistaking the word "yue", which means "day" for "half a peng", which, is what the word looked like to me at first before I realized my mistake, heh. Oh yeah, there was survey that we had all did last week on how well our classmates did on their online portfolio. We had to nominate people and the ones who were nominated, got to go up and pick a prize, ranging from plastic license plates, pencils, paper, or an Iron Man poster. Sponsor ad of course. And I'm not taking 'bout like Avengers, I'm talking 'bout Iron Man, the first movie, the one that premiered May 2nd years ago.

        I now just realized that today marked the last time that Zi and I will walk and talk from 5th period to 6th period, possibly the last time that I'll see Yue (don't know about tomorrow). Well, actually no,l because Thursday, I walk my route and Yue walks her route and we end mouthing "Bye" as we walk by.

        What post are we on? About 470 or so, so far. Or more than that. But damn, that's one and a half series right there (So Don't Be On With Here was sorta like half). And man, is it f***ing late now, 12:35 AM. Yue just messaged me right now as I typed that. She actually wished me good luck on my test. That's actually pretty nice.

        Ya know I've wondered how this all would've gone if Yue stayed in my 3rd period Chemistry class. Probably s*** would've been much, much, much, different. A lot. And s***, I forgot to show pictures of the card. Ah well, tomorrow it is. See, you, tomorrow.
