Week: 40
Songs to Remember: Knock - KNK

        Another day, another 18 hours of "unnecessary work, procrastination on that work, and asking myself "What am I?"

        Also, another 3 days of school, another 3 days of a movie for Psych. Today we finished watching "A Beautiful Mind." In the beginning it seemed kinda dodgy, and even though I only got to focus my eyes on the screen for about 2/3 of the whole thing, I liked it. Tomorrow we're gonna be starting to watch "Juno." Umm, yeah, heh. Not gonna lie, I never watched 'Juno." I know that's apparently very good, and has to do with a pregnant teenager.

        English is still dragging me around. The teacher still hasn't put in out grades for our homework packets we had to turn in on Friday. My grade's still sitting at that 67%. The teacher's also telling us that the next thing we'll be viewing Catcher in will be the teen angst lens. Like, is it teen angst or does Holden have a psychological disorder? Now I know for a fucking fact, everyone else too, that he stated that there will be no more essays for the rest of the school-year. I swear, if he gives us an essay, or something, the cell multiplication rate in my cancer is gonna fucking double.

        Bio was what you'd expect: free period. We finished "Contagion" so now the teacher's playing "Something the Lord Made." It's the actual name, and it's not really like, a religious movie or anything. It's actually a drama about a doctor and his apprentice-person trying to find a way to fix like, the "blue-baby" syndrome. And also it takes place in the 1920's or something, around there, so there's some racial discrimination stuff going on too. Also it stars Alan Rickman, aka, Snape.

        Math is almost a worry, but, I'm sorta just floating right now in it. I know for a fact that I am sitting around the 75% right, aka, a solid C. Am I fine with that? I'd say that the tests my teacher gives out are the hardest for any other Honors Pre-Cal classes at school, so, that shouldn't bother me. Umm, yeah, so it was just the usual math shit today. And you know me: saving the work for 1st and 3rd period tomorrow.

        US History is starting to take it's toll on me, 'cause, well actually, it's just bulk-work. I got a drawing to finish that's due tomorrow (which, I'm saving for tomorrow) and a "study guide" due tomorrow. Am I planning to do them in 3rd period and lunch? Yeah. Is it worrisome? It shouldn't be. And finally Chinese, where we do bulk-work in class. Uhh, we got our final exam "project" that's due like, sometime next week maybe. She's giving us portions of it, due by 11:00 PM each night. Normally I'd be like "What the fuck dude" but, considering it's a group thing, and the chunks aren't that large, it's practical and justified.

        And yes, I did do my group's portion tonight. Like, all of it, which wasn't actually that much work, mostly just a lot of copy/pasting and formatting. Although, my group members did appreciate it and uh, I expected them to "start" working on it tonight, which they did. They logged on at like, 9:00 PM, only to find that it's already done. I did feel guilty that my teammates had to cover for me, I thought that working a bit over would pay back some of the effort I didn't put in last night, heh. And no, the performance thing wasn't an excuse either, I had 3+ hours on Saturday to work on some portions of it, so.

        Speaking of work, I have not started my movie marathon for the AP Bio assignment yet. Considering we only have to write a couple paragraphs (literally) for each part, it ain't even that much work. I just gotta remember to turn it in before Friday, and I'm gucci. Speaking of good, my dad came back from his vacation in France. He's still the same old, same old. One complaint he had over in France was that it was that, the wind was pretty fucking crazy. Like, scary, crazy.

        Uhhh, so tomorrow I got some shit due. I still need to finish folding envelopes and start writing letters for the seniors for KDT. It's due by like, this Saturday, the 21st. Also looks like The Days will be ending it's run on it's 43rd season. Now that already seems like a hefty amount of season, dont'tchu think. And no, there are no details yet of the next series. I wanna make this one last a bit longer (just a bit), and only the good parts, because I still need to tie those ends, and uh, fill in those plot holes, answer unanswered questions, that sorta stuff.

        Now as for the past couple days, ever since the performance, also walking around school, it could be the withdrawal effects of spending time with KDT and experiencing those different point of views, the more "interesting" ones, and having to go back to school the day after, having to experience these same ones for another, couple weeks. I've also been feeling a bit insecure, like, well, that, and the fact that I would like to act differently from what I am right now. I just don't think I'm interacting ENOUGH. My vocabulary, even though it sounds nice on paper, it's been reduces to sub-meme talk now, heh, consisting of "same." I fucking hate that word now.

        So, for current events, I haven't been interacting with my cousin for a while. You know, the one who'se graduating in a couple weeks, yeah that one. Or two, I actually have 2 cousins graduating in a couple weeks. It's Jn, him, and the cousin from my dad's side, En. She's uh, she's going to Brown University, heh. My mom's side, the highest education would probably be, I don't know, San Jose State Probably, and that title is held by my cousin, who's graduating college this year I think, or next year. Maybe this year, I don't know for sure.

        As for my dad's side, yeah, Brown University. It's an Ivy League school, if you didn't know. And both fortunately and unfortunately, it's in Rhode Island, New York. Or, somewhere really far east, I'm kinda shit at Geography. I don't know if they'll invite me for their graduation or not, I know I'ma have to go to Jn's graduation soon enough. I'll call him up on Skype this weekend and see what's been happening. As for my Discord buddies, ya know, Mc and Ec and all them, we've been busy with, you guessed it, school. We still make some meme talk daily just a bit. Girls, social media shit, etc.

        Well, today's been a record time for 2 things: finishing a post before 11:00 PM (which I think I've done earlier but I haven't done one this early in a looong time), and uh, it's not 11:00 PM yet. I'll be playing some Isaac to relax for a bit, then, off to bed. If I can keep this pace up, hey, I think things will go smoothly. See ya.
