Bring back souvenirs for us, lol, j/k.Lol, we're is the joke in that? We really do want the presents lol. Well I do.... Meh.. Haha oh yeah, a nice cheesy sloganed t-shirt all the way! HAHA, that reminds me of something. But that's a long story that goes off track so yeah. Have fun on your trip, Lana and good luck with your surgery (it's nearing..ARGH... Err sorry, not making you feel any better, eh?) Good luck though!

Grr, don't mention that. Today is not a good day... Too many stupid arguments and stuff for it to be a good day. And it turns out I'm nearly failing science. Crap. But it's Friday and that's the only good thing. And I get to go party at the bowling alley tomorrow for my friend's birthday. Yay!

Bowling should brighten your weekend up. lol.
What science are you taking? Unless you want to be a scientist or go into anything with science, you don't really need it. lol. Math, you'll need. Science, uh, not too much. Take physics. It's easy because it's common sense.

Lol, yeah. Hopefully it will.
Nah, I don't want to be a scientist. I'd be awful at that. I'm taking chemistry right now... And I think I got physics next year.
It's not that I'm bad at science, it's more the teacher's fault and my group's fault. I got assigned with the worse lab group that doesn't do anything and just shoots pencils across the room and tries copying all my notes that they didn't help one bit on. Grr. And the assignments are group-work, so it's not much I can do. Plus my teacher is too stupid to realize all this even when I've told her.

haha. Chem was kind of hard. You had to memorize all the stupid elements and their ions and protons and if they add up to be eight or something like that. It couldn't have been that bad if I took AP Chem after regular Chem. You know what's scary, after doing Chem for so long, I actually did memorize all the elements and their ions and crap. When I had to do a formula I actually knew what hydrochloride was and how many ions it had. That was scary.

Grr, don't mention that. Today is not a good day... Too many stupid arguments and stuff for it to be a good day. And it turns out I'm nearly failing science. Crap. Aww, poor Ryan. Lol nearly? I'm passing science but I'm failing maths by.. well, a lot. I got 17.5 out of 59 in my half-yearly exam. In my class, that's classified as a high mark, seeing as only two people passed. Feel better now, Riley?

I doubt the same thing will happen to me. I'll get something memorized, but by the time final exams come along, I've already forgotten it. Which sucks. Grr.
I said nearly to make myself feel better. I'm completely failing it. I'm gonna bring in a bunch of extra credit stuff... I doubt even a car would boost my grade up to what my parents want. But I shall try.

Hey, I didn't know you were failing. I thought you were just doing bad, not failing. Ouch.
Chemistry is a bugger, but I was always worse at math. I was one of the few that tried algebra w/ statistics, and I ended up getting stuck with the stupid teacher that would start discussing some random event in her life midway through a lesson. She spent half a class period talking about a gas station incident involving some guy helping her and then asking for chicken fingers (long story, don't ask...)
How do these people even get hired?!?

Our science teacher once told us a story about him and his wife walking his dog. And our maths teacher insults his wife all the time. In short, I think they just round up the most eccentric peole they can find and train them to be teachers. Or maybe they're all perfectly normal when they start, then us kids drive them loopy.

Haha. Well yay! I'm getting A's in everything! *Claps* I'm in 8th grade though so....yea. I was like SO terrified I was going to get a C in math because I got a 73 on my Stats test in math. Yea. I think I got a B though. Thank god. I have never gotten a C. Ever. On Anything. I was soooo freaked. See in our school its harder:
A's - 90-100 B's 80 - 89 C- 70 - 79 D's 60 - something F's - something
Yea.

Well done ! You;ve never gotten a C? LOL! I used to get Es and Ds on my Latin homeworks in Year 7, probably cause I wrote like 1 line and then stopped but still... Meh Oh yeah, I got... 61/66 for my maths Stats paper. But that was GCSE... so that's different. Meh, it was only like 7% (or 11%, not sure) of the overall Maths mark so that sucks but it was the easiest Module. Argh, I have an ICT exam in 2 days!!! 40% of my GCSE and the A* boundary is 91% so yeah... I've already got 54% of it secured so that means I have to get 37% out of 40%, which is basically full marks in order to score an A* in that..........

I have officially finished all exams, woot! Only now we have this huge assignment for food tech, where we have to design a frickin' building! It's a theatre/restaurant with changerooms, storage rooms, a kitchen and two staffrooms!!!! I mean if we have the best assignment we do get it named after us and stuff, but I don't want a building named after me! I'm only doing it because I don't want to fail such a ridiculously easy subject [seriously, I've come top of all the tests in my class in the past two years without so much as looking at my excercise book before them]. It doesn't get built until three years after we leave anyway. It's such a waste of money, they should use it to get us decent toilets and maths textbooks, so my friends don't have to have photocopied booklets instead... there's the end of my rant, sorry about that folks, the mention of school sent my flying off the chain, lol.

I see. Well finals ended for me last week, so I'm good and through with this semester. Now I can do whatever all day! Except I have a job. Crap.
Ryan just got home from his surgery, and he's currently eating a sonic burger... He'll probably go sleep after that though since he had to get up at like 6 am.

Oooh Jar Jar Binks I should stick some random smileys up on the site to be more original... I like originality. Lol, sorry Boone, it hasn't. Haha, it's only been 3 days... So yeah, you'll have to be bored for a bit longer. Unless something interesting happens with Silas, Boone or Jasper... What, I don't know but something...
