So yeah... today I started my senior year of high school. Pretty exciting stuff. Well since I am bored I think I will go through my day in a blog! woo hoo! haha
Ok so 1st block I had english. It was pretty stupid cause we accually had to do work! the first day should always be some kinda intro in to the class not real work, but for some reason she decided to be mean and give us some work to do.We had to write a 20 line poem about a partner of our choice, which i guess isnt that bad in the long run but on the first day is crazy. Then she gave us a couple of pages to do in the work book for homework along with a 2 page paper on myself due thursday which sucks cuase im not really in the mood to jump right in to a lot of work right yet. But all in all the teacher seems cool... she cracks quite a few jokes which is cool. Also she is a huge woman... like she is taller than me... and im about 6'1" which is crazy but she seems cool. In that class their arent that many of my friends with me but there are a few. There is one that i have known since pre-school but he and i dont talk that much. Then their is this girl Tracy that i take my Physical Therapy class with and see like every day which is cool cuase she is a really a really cool person. Finally there is another girl, who is really close with my two best friends, Elise she and i arent that close but i am sure we will become closer becuase of this class, which is cool.
2nd Block- This class is "Major Time", which is basically a class that my school added this year because we dont have high enough grades and what not. It is a study hall aka sit and talk to your friends for 80 something minutes. But even tho it is a waste of time its ok cuase my best friend Jamie is in that class, so basically she and i sit there and talk foran hour and twenty minutes which is pretty cool. Also a plus for that class is the fact that i have a teacher that i already knowfrom last year, my old physics teacher, Mr. Shapiro. He is really cool and slightly crazy which is cool. so even tho its a waste of time its not that bad cause i get to chill
Next is lunch which is built in to 3rd block. It is awsome. I have quite a few of my closest friends in it with me including Joe, who is one of my best friends, and Rachel, the girl I like and am really close friends with as wellso i can use this time to chang the friendship in to something more hopefully which will be really hard. There are many other cool people as well ranging from the drugiesand metal heads to the preppypeople.Also we get a few new privaliges in lunch this year. We are now allowed to sit in the Senior Courtyard and at the senior tables at lunch (even tho i satatthe senior tableslast year). All in all lunch is gonna be really cool even tho i doubt i will be eating there at all this year which i will explain in a minute.
3rd block is my Travel Period which is set up so i can go to a different school for a special class on Physical/ Occupational Therapy. Today being the first day it didnt go as smoothly as it should have and they switched up the meeting place which confused every one. Then they said we werent allowed to drive to our academy which was bull, i drove anyway, andthe teacher (who's name isMr Feeney haha)held us back untill we were "supposed" to leave so we sat there for like 15 minutes doing nothing waiting for him to let us leave. So we finally left and on my way to the other school i stopped at mcdonalds to pick up lunch becuase i had chosen not to eat at school, this is what i am prolly gonna do the rest of the year, except i will up where i stop. Tracy was gonna show me where to park at the other school, she said she was gonna stop at mcdonalds but then i saw her drive by while i was eating so i had to leave while i was still eating and follow her and then some where along the drive to the other schoolshe got behind me so i had to pull over and let her get infront so she could show me where to park. Then she showed me where to park and it is a really long walk from the parking place to the school so im gonna be getting alot of exercise.All of that got a little confusing.
Finally i get to my Physical Therapy class and see my teacher. This is a level twoclass so only seniors can take it and you have to have taken level one your junior year of course, so there are only five people in my class including myself. I get there and my teacher is already discussing some of the field trips we are going to be taking this year. There is going to be one to go to a college inNew York which seems really cool and there are going to be like three to see cadavers atNOVA thelocal community college. Then there is going tobe this competition typetrip in march as well.So i am really looking forward tothe stuff with this class. And the best thingof all isi get out of this at 1 o'clock, i usually get out at 2:05 so i get out an hourearlier than all my friends.
Well that was my first day. pretty exciting i know... but yeah since we have this block schedulingwe have different classes every other day. so that means i will prolly post another blog tommorow about my other classes. So long everyone who took the time to read this.Thanks
