El Horror y El Alegre

Would you prefer fame or respect? Why?

Respect. Nothing bugs me more than when people disrespect you when all you've done is try your hardest to give it to them. And if you have respect, you'll give respect, and you'll be handed fame amongst the people you love.

Did you get that?

today during volleyball we basically did passing drills the whole time

thats my area of expertise

and i worked on my serving

and i can serve it over the net

and its crazy short

which means it'll be hard for the other team to get it

which means i proved to my coaches today that ive got what it takes

i picked it up

i kicked it all

and i have a shot at a starting position now. :)

Before today, Algebra 2 just seemed like more Algebra 1, until we started a new unit.

Now we have to solve systems of linear equations with 3 variables.

yes, THREE!

so when we graph these systems, the image will be 3-D.

Now I see the advanced-ness of my new class.

it sucks.

If you could call any living person tonight and ask him/her for advice, who would you call? (And what would you ask?)

I would call [foot]. I know, you haven't heard that name in awhile. But here's why:

That boy can smooth talk his way out of any homework assignment and find a way to let the teacher let him turn it in late. The boy's an evil mastermind, and I could really use some good way to escape the mountain of homework I have for stupid Found of Tech. 

In the state of Maryland, one of the graduation requirements is taking a class called Foundations of Technology.

This is the stupidest class on the face of the planet.

Our first class is building and programming robots to do certain tasks.

Sounds simple, right?

Effin wrong.

Our project was supposed to be done friday.

My group hasn't finished the third task.

If I get a bad grade, I might flip out.

So please excuse me while I waste the night away doing enough extra credit to cover that whole task.

Have you noticed that on some of the QotDs they're followed by bonus points if you...? How evil is that? Why can't we actually get bonus points? Oh well, I guess it really doesn't matter. 

So I just learned how to play lacrosse last week, and I'm still sucking crap.

And I'm playing, in class, with experienced boys lacrosse players.

I'm pretty sure they're tired of my fails.

Oh well, I hope I get better.

Or they'll have to deal with it.

Are you more attracted to people whose personalities are similar or different to yours?

Truthfully? I think I'm really attracted to people who are the complete opposite. They bring excellent conversation, fun times, and just more in general. They think differently than I do, and sometimes that angers me. I like someone who stands by what they believe in, and doesn't want to impress me by liking everything I do. That just makes everything boring. I like the varied tastes and opinions that people with different personalities share. I love that its all so abnormal, me being with someone who doesn't fit with me at all. It makes me stand out, and feel like no one in the world has what I have, and it makes everything so much more special for me.

Cool title, right? Well the problem isn't as interesting.

I can't seem to get the hang of Spanish 3. It's hard.

I love Spanish, and I was the top of my class in middle school, even above the Spanish speaking students. I'm not going to lie.

But in Spanish 3, our teacher speaks barely any English in class, and we move at such a fast pace.

Now here's the biggest problem so far: I can't remember my stuff from that class.

I literally have left my materials in that class the past two days. I'm going to fail because I fail at remembering. So from now on, I will not be racing out of that class. I'm going to take my time collecting my stuff, and then leave.

Yet again, I'm talking about the smallest of things being huge. Am I sounding like a regular teenager now?

Well, you know, I'm trying. That's really all that counts, right?
