the last post about school because grades are frozen
had the frankenstein test today. i am so excited. i am officially done with the demon langford's class for the year. now i only have to deal with the langford's class. allow myself to explain myself. :) you see, the demon langford gives us long quote/essay tests and makes us read stupid books like crime and punishment and frankenstein. see also:salyer's entire first semester last year. at any rate, we are officially done with all the books and evil assignments that i hate. i hate the romantic period. i don't like their books or their ideas. granted society is messed up and people need to relate with nature, but the answer is not to quit society and live in the woods. that's like giving up. no no. tis wrong. which is partly why i don't like romantic books. the other reason would obviously be the archaic diction and primitive literary devices. the froshadowing, imagery, and symbolism...ugh. its like getting beaten over the head by the obvious.but that torture is behind us now. physics is essentially over, government is fun, french is blow off, and calculus is confusing but not evil. which reminds me that i think i failed my calc test. missed 5-6. out of 12. tis bad. but oh well. i'm just hoping scheffer takes mercy and grades kindly. at anyrate, the only things left for me to work for are scholarships and AP tests. i need money and as a perfectionist (and i must admit, a victim of hubris in this case) i feel the need to get straight 5's this year. as always. i don't want to ruin my perfect record. i think calculus will put a damper on that. and possibly econ. which reminds me i have an econ review session tomorrow. hmm. not looking forward to that. oh well. my own fault for signing up for the AP test.
we get to read waiting for godot in english! yay. and im still reading rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead. it is so funny. and i just found out a local plae is performing it this month. i think grace and i are gonna go to that. im so excited. and langford wants me to join the lit crit team for regionals as their 4th person since jeff has debate. so i guess i'll do that. i'll probably fai the test. miserably. but i get 2 days off school when i have nothing else going on (actually i'll probabl miss the last calc test but that's ok). ugh. i am NOT looking forward to that AP test. or any really. but i'm really worried about that one. physics i know i can get a 4 if i study and review and stuff. govt i know i can get a 5 if i study. econ i can get at least a 4. i want a 5 though so i'll have to study. english i know ill get a 5. conceited but i know but i kick ass on that test. so i'l be ok.
my frankenstein essay today was pretty good i thought. it was onl 2 pages but i was writing in print so it was smaller and a lot more condenced. it was only 2 paragraphs but i made my points quite well and had a thorough intro. so i think im fine. it was a 7-8 on the AP scale. i love how im so in tune with my own writing. im never surprised by my essay grades in there. unless i just dont try and am surprised that i still got a good grade. but usually i can turn the paper in and be like oh that was a 7. or that was a 6. or that was an 8. amazing. out of the 20 essay points available i think mine was a 17-20 depending on her mood and who's she read before mine. i might have missed one point on the short answer. and i missed 2 quotes (at least) and maybe one question. so that's a 85-88. plus the ten extra points. so im pretty sure i got a good grade on that test. which is good but its on next 6 weeks and grades are frozen so who cares.
bleh. govt test tomorrow. and i got a B in french this 6 weeks. i got 95, 88, and 97 for my test grades and i got an 88 in there. that tells me that she gives us a lot of stupid quiz grades that everyone fails. and i had a 100 daily average. my quiz avg was like a 77. and i got an 88. WTF. foreign language department's grading thing is so messed up. eh. im out of here in 2 months. im excited. i would go study for gov but i don't care. i'll just wing it and see what happens. probably a bad chapter to test this theory on because its detail oriented, but i never was one for making great decisions when it comes to being lazy and doing superfluous work.
hahah im free!!
