Week: 7
Songs to Remember: Oh Yeah - GD&TOP
These season finales have been really great so far. Mostly because it's been ending with KDT dances but still, overall, not bad.
So let's start it off with Psychology. No notes today, but uh, you know how I love projects right? Mmm, can't get enough of 'em (sarcasm). Time to add another project to the stack. This is one's different though. Nothing physical to make, it's all online and in our heads. Yep, we gotta change the lyrics of a song and have it be about the brain.
Best part about it (sarcasm)? It's a group project. Groups of 3 to 5 people. When I saw the assignment at first, first thing that came into my mind: "Allstar" by Smashmouth. I was gonna do that song. But, then I read that it was a group project, and well, most likely no one's gonna wanna do a bootleg song from Shrek.
The teacher had us do it in groups (well, strongly recommended) because she was like, it would be pretty tough to do it by ourselves. I don't really get what's hard about it, you just count out the syllables for each line of the song, then just plug in sentences about the subject into it, modifying a couple words for it to fit in with syllable count and have the end word rhyme. There's already a template, so, could probably make it up in about a couple hours.
So my group members were these 2 girls who sit in front of me. We went outside, looked up songs, we decided to do a rap song. First thing that popped into my head: "Rap God" by Eminem. FUCK YEAH I'ma do the bootleg crazy rap verse. We ended up picking it, I was reassuring my group members "Don't worry, I got this, I can do the fast parts, I'll write most of it out, it'll be easy". They were like "But can you rap?" and I was like "I'll find out this weekend".
It's due Tuesday by the way, we gotta sing it in class. Anyways, English was definitely one of the highlights of the day. Not because of what we did in class (which was just discussing the article from last night), but what happened after it. Lt walks out the classroom, I'm walking behind her, it's happening again. But no, I was thinking like "FUCK MAN SLOW DOWN". Good thing the teacher gave us a lot of work for the weekend 'cause that played a good part for my transition.
I was thinking of being like "Ugh, why does the teacher have to give us so much work for the weekend. I got like 4 other projects in my other classes, gotta finish homework, homecoming, all that. Are you going?" And that's basically, exactly what I said. She was like "What? Homecoming?" and I was like "Yeah". She was like "Ehhhh". She said she would be definitely going to prom in senior year but not really like, planning to go to shit this year. I was like "Oh, my fucking, god, well of course, who ain't gonna want to go to prom in senior year".
She was like "Are you going?". I was like "Yeah, I'm planning to. You should go, it'd be fun". Never say "because it'd be fun". I couldn't think of any other reason. Had to give another explanation of "Well, it's nice to take a break from all the work". She mentions "What would be fun would be like, going to South Korea". And I swear, had I asked about K-Pop and she was into it, hawwwwt damn.
But I didn't. And so uh, I did it, I mentioned homecoming. Will she be going? Maybe, maybe not. It seemed like she was like "Oh, homecoming?". At least I got her thinking 'bout it. Yes, I will be mentioning it again in season 8, that one will hopefully contain the first special of the first series, Homecoming. My buddy Jk was like "We should all go" and I was like "Hell yeah fam". The rest of the cast was like "Ehhhh". Like, really? You know, I really wanted to go to all these bootleg dances and social events, but none of my buddies ever go. So I'm like "Am I really gonna go by myself".
I've never been to one of these dances. Almost went to one in middle school, but didn't. Almost went to one last year, but didn't. If I really wanted to go, I'd be like "Ay Yn, are you going to Homecoming?". I still see her around, she has P.E 6th period, and so she walks to my route from my 5th to 6th, and I sometimes see her when going from 1st to 2nd, as usual. I don't know man, I don't know man. Even Ec, ya know, my best buddy, he doesn't really feel like going to our buddy's birthday party (even if it had passed, but he's having it now) tomorrow.
I don't know, everybody's busy, this kinda sucks, just a bit. *sigh*, alright, where was I. Biology. turned in the rough drafts of our lab report which I stayed up 'till 2:00 AM last night on it. We had Chromebooks and used those to watch a video, fill out a worksheet. Math, no projects, no lesson, but we had Chromebooks. To? To practice the SAT, PSAT, all for free on Khan Academy. Took 'em this long to have free practice huh. Well, free legit practice from a well-known source.
Spots for the PSAT are like, pretty much full right now. I guess I won't be taking it. So that means, I'm relying on Khan Academy binges. And uh, yeah. Where was I- oh right, lunch. Yeah, just generic lunch. US History, we got time to collaborate with our groups on the skit project. In my opinion we're gong to pull something shitty off in the end, just enough for that fucking C. Goddamn Imperialism man, how the fuck we gonna show that. Others get eras.
Chinese, just because our chapter is on like, "May I borrow your car/airplane", and a couple of our vocabulary words is "airplane, airport", we made paper airplanes today. I actually had a really nice decorated plane. On one wing, written in marker, had the words "Jet fuel", and the other wing has "Steel beams". I would've put "Never forget" but that was a bit too, ehhh.
We went to the basketball courts right outside, did a throwing contest to see whose airplane flew farthest. Let's just say, mine did not reach it's destination of a building. And so, bell rang, KDT time. The song was "Redlight" by f(x), it was a pretty fast paced song. The regular people showed up again, the KDT cast, and uh it was just a generally nice, positive time. But sweaty, lots, very sweaty.
And so this weekend's just gonna be me chipping away at work, projects, etc. And probably some random bootleg shenanigans maybe, possibly. Oh and I also updated the song-list and added a calendar page. Only a matter of time before I start filling it out with dates and stuff. As in, events. Sooo, see ya.
