2 Day weeks blow.

Why in the world is the hardest week of school thus far the shortest one of the year? This defies logic. In two days I am expected to complete a Chemistry problem set, write a new draft (and two new blog entries. Shoutouts to ma blog!!!) of an article for journalism, translate 30 lines of Latin, graph a few equations for pre calc, and do a plethora of AP US (which is enough work in and of itself for about a day and a half of homework). I legitimately do not know how I’ll get this done. But I shall persevere!

On a lighter note, I finished a book called The Virgin Suicides this weekend, which is completely amazing. It’s one of the most beautfully written books I’ve ever read. Now I think I’m gonna move on to The Mysteries of Pittsburgh or The Unbearable Lightness of Being. For anyone who’s actually reading this, do you have any suggestions. That’d be lovely.

Until next time fellow Interwebbers!

Today I watched The Squid and the Whale! Such a good movie! And it’s only 80 minutes long, so I was able to culture myself AND fit it into my busy schedule of procrastination, which I am heartily working on now by not studying my chemistry!

Chemistry is…Interesting. On one hand, thus far in the year, I have sort of awakened a dormant interest in the subject which I didn’t knew I had. On the other hand, the course is taught by *drumroll* the infamous Scott McWilliam.

Now he’s a very nice guy, don’t get me wrong. But he may be the worst teacher I have ever even heard of. I don’t think he’s a real one. I think he held the Dean of some University up at gunpoint and demanded a Bachelor’s Degree in chemistry. I can’t even imagine him grading papers. I merely see him as a man who gives us assignments to do and grades us based on how well we have done them. But not as a man who teaches us anything. He doesn’t explain what he needs to and instead focuses on things we all learned a long time ago. Fine example: Today we learned how to round properly. FOR 20 MINUTES. Insanity. Though on the bright side we watched a profoundly interesting video about scientific notation. That’s actually not a joke. It was sweet. They zoomed in and out of a guy napping on a picnic blanket. Lawlz.

Anyway, I should probably get on that homework. Oh great calamity. Farewell!

Forced blogging is certainly not the most productive method of extraction of ideas and/or information. Especially with 4 hours of sleep. Instead of regaling (or miserably attempting to, rather), I’m going to find as many ridiculous pictures as I can on teh interwebz and entertain you with them, Therefore defeating any journalistic purpose of this assignment. At least for the time being. Ready, steady, go.

“I’m sorry for your loss. Your mother was a terribly attractive woman…”

Good afternoon! Currently I am sitting in the “state of the art” media center of the Westlake High School library, being a wanna be yuppie. Why? Because I’ve finally gotten a blog.
We have to have a focus, so I suppose, since I’m lazy, and I really don’t know about much else, mine will be about culture, its effect on my life, and all that other good stuff. It WILL be chock full of teen angst, rest assured. I’m excited! Are you!?

Why? Because I can. IT'S MY BLOG.
