Songs to Remember: Bad - Infinite

        This has been one of the most exciting seasons so far and this little itty-bitty stress that's in my head right now that's keeping it all from being too relaxing.

        Since it's September 11th, we all gotta remember the tragedy from that cursed day. And what better way to remember that than by getting it on my Psychology FRQ? The teacher passed back our free-response question papers and my score was 9/11. I was like "Gee, thanks". What better timing right?

        Moving on to English. Boy was I fucking scared. This was the cause of my stress for the whole day. Went in, got the prompt, we got to use the book, our prep on the paper I did yesterday night, and our annotated articles. Oh and by the way, I have 2nd period English. There are announcements over the loudspeaker at the beginning of every 2nd period. Yep. For the bell to ring, the teacher to discuss a bit on what we gotta do, explain the prompt a bit, and the announcements, that took a good 10 minutes out of the time we had to write our essay.

        I was really really hoping we'd do it on the Chromebooks and type it out, unfortunately we didn't. I had a lot of preparation for this essay. I began explaining what I had to explain, and then I looked at the timer. 19 minutes had passed. I was like "Oh, I got this, 40 minutes left, easy". I wrote down some more stuff, I took a look at the time again. 17 minutes. "Oh fuck, it's counting down". I had 17 minutes left and I was only about 1/4 of the way through my essay.

        SPEED UP! I rushed to fucking heck. At the last stretch I was scribbling down all the words I can to finish my essay. Literally, I wrote 'till time was up, I even saw the timer count down from 30 seconds. My hand was actually shaking, I had to calm myself down in order to not make my final sentences look like hieroglyphics. Wrote so fast I left skid marks on my paper, heh. "My masterpiece", was what I felt I had created in those dire minutes.

        Thank goodness that was over. Now I barely have to stress about anything today. Walking out with Lt right behind me, she was like "I failed" (exaggerating of course). We talked, aaand, I try to move towards her locker place, she just, kept going the usual way, ehhhhh. She then mentioned how she had to cross so much stuff out. I was like "Cross stuff out?". She was like "Yeah, we had to write in pen".

        This is part where someone does Morgan Freeman's voice and says "And in that moment, Drew knew, he fucked up". Heart, fucking, skips a beat. Uhhhhhhhhh. That right there just ruined my whole day. Well, created a lot of worry for me for the day. I basically just prayed, the whole day, even right now, that the teacher would let it slide, it's our first essay, you know. I mean, come the fuck on, we've been writing with pencil this entire time and only now pen is required. Like, I was so focused on "Okay, gonna write about this first, then this...etc, etc", that I apparently didn't pay attention to the part where the teacher says "Pen only".

        Please, for the love of god and all that is holy, please let it slide this one time. Anyways, break. And then Biology. We did some bootleg practice free-response questions, got about, 1 of 'em right, and uh, some notes, on, stuff. About half of the class was gone because today was Senior Picnic day, where all the seniors get to spend the entire day (and I mean, entire) school day at a park, doing, whatever they want.

        Math, was actually made pretty special for this season finale. Instead of a usual lesson, we did group posters. As in, in groups, we graphed parabolas, on big pieces of paper. It was just me and Hl. And then the teacher had this one other 2-person group split apart, had one of 'em come over to our group, the other to another 2-person group. And yes, it was the same dude who sat next to me. It went, swimmingly. The teacher gave out lollipops like she always does, heh.

        She also took pictures of us holding up our completed poster. These things were worth 5 points each by the way, which is added to our quiz score. Oh yeah, we did get our quizzes back today. To my surprise, I got  39/42. Was I surprised that I got such a high score, or was I surprised that I didn't get a 100%? Most likely both. Still, one of my life goals is to get a 100% in her class, on any quiz or test. Even with the extra 5 points added, that ain't no natural 100%.

        Lunch time, I tried going to my English teacher's room to ask him if he can let my pencil-written essay slide. Door was locked, he wasn't there. Ah shoot. So I head on over to my usual spot when I see Drew, Drew N. Much easier to describe him that way. He was like "Hey are you going to the ARK meeting?" I was like "Oh yeah, let's go". We head on over, all the way to the back of the L building, only to find out it's next week. Well, sheeeet. And in this heat, sheeeet. Walking back, I go back to my usual spot, convo's, etc.

        US History, we watch this movie called "Far and Away" and we gotta write down like, scenes from the movie which deal with immigration, etc, etc. Stars Tom Cruise so that's, nice, heh. Overall people were actually pretty interested in the movie. Was made in 1992 believe it or not. And to top it off, for Chinese, we just had coloring. It was supposed to be a sort of stress reliever, well, didn't really stop me from thinking about my upcoming F on my essay.

        After class I headed on over to see if he was there. Door was locked, nope. Guess that's the end of the season finale right? WRONG. That was just the beginning. The real part starts here, in front of the dance room, just like last year. A lot of people were waiting there, including, but not limited to: Ln, Cc, Js, that one girl Jp tried to go for online, her friend aka one of people my buddies and I trolled online, and, Yc. Who's Yc? He was the dude, that Ai and I were friends with last year when we went to KDT. I met Yc here I think. Yeah, yeah I did.

        I actually forgot all about him. He was like "Ay Drew" and I was like "Oh hey". He's a sophomore now, but by god, he pulls so fucking hard. He's like the only dude out of a group of like 5 other girls standing there, he was pulling hard. He was like "Hey you going to homecoming?" and I was like "Yeah" and he was like "You got anyone to go with?" and I was like "Uhhh, not sure, I don't know yet" and he was like "Oh how about one of these ladies here, huh" and I was like "Uhhhh, I already got options, heh" and he was like "Ahhh I see, alright, alright" and I was like "Are you going?" and he was like "Nawww".

        So it was basically just me and him, standing there, in a group of like 5 other girls, the rest of the people were standing near the door, Yc was just pulling hard on that girl my buddies and I trolled and Jp's online interest. That was for a good 10 minutes when finally the teacher got her to advise us. We put our bags to the side, the KDT leaders/coordinators/veterans were handing out nametags for everybody. Like, those sticker ones where you write your name.

        I was like "Ohhhhh, I remember all this". Slipped my mind completely. Eventually Ai showed up. I always forget if I refer to him as Ai or Ad. If I use either of those, I'm referring to the same dude who I met at tutoring, okay? Anyways, after that, we got in a big circle and started off the ice-breaker, which was to say "Hi, my name is blank, and my favorite K-Pop group is blank". Or if you don't have one, just say why you joined KDT.

        I don't know if I can emphasize this enough, but, it's like a 50 to 1 girl to guy ratio. Okay, maybe 10 to one, but holy shit. Tons, and tons, and tons, and tons, and tons of people said "EXO" and "BTS". What did I say? I was debating between "Seventeen" and "2PM". I went with 2PM. One of the most bootleg things happened about 5 minutes in the ice-breaker. I heard someone outside (my back was facing the open door), saw in the mirror it was the dude my buddies and trolled hard, and I was like "Awwww fuck".

        And whadya know, my buddy Ai says "Hey blank name, come sit over here". Ho-ly, shit, he sat right next to me. I mean, after knowing what he was really like online, I kinda don't wanna like, associate myself with him... in, any form possible. And holy shit, was there a lot of familiar faces. I probably knew, about, 1/4 of the people here? There were around 50 people. And so, we got started with the dance. Of course, it's always the easy moves first. We didn't do the whole song, just the part where it leads to the beginning of the chorus and half-way through it.

        It was "Call Me Baby" by EXO by the way. My true hommie was Yc during the whole thing. Even though we haven't talked or saw eachother in like, a year, we were still pretty tight. He was still pretty tight. I can see why he pulls hard. Anyways, the dancing went alright, I mixed up steps sometimes, and had a bit trouble keeping my pacing and speed on the leg kicking part, but overall, not bad, considering I did no dancing whatsoever for an entire year, heh.

        Oh and I did I mention the 10 to 1 girl to guy ratio. That was, holy, this whole thing was fucking crazy. We took group pics, they recorded us doing the dance we learned in 2 hours, it was nice. What wasn't nice, was how hot it was. I've been saying "holy shit" a lot, but, ho-ly shit. I was sweating like a motherfucker. And yes, this time, I promise to be committed to these things. As in, 2 hours every Friday, to KDT.

        Anywhooo, that was one nice season finale. And now what's next? Doing my work over the weekend, and going to the mall on Sunday, reuniting with my best buddy Ec after months of summer. Hot damn. Anyways, gonna go to sleep now. See ya.
