of too much excitement
First week of school is over and what I can say is that it is exhausting. Well, too much for my excitement! By Friday, I was feeling as if it wasn't our first week anymore because for one, we were flooded with homeworks; and two, we were discussing lesson topics seriously already. It was indeed a working business week.
Sophomore. I guess, I have adjusted to High School life. More or less, I got acquainted to the endless homeworks, dreaded pop quizzes and study, study, study all day long. (Though, I have yet to get used to the late departure everyday except Thursdays: 4pm.) True enough, I have reactions towards our set of teachers. Hm, let's just say they aren't that good but I hope it works well all throughout the schoolyear. You see, we kind of lack teachers so some play 2-part or even 3-part roles. Just imagine how many times we see them in a day!
So far, it's all good. I turned down being class head because of valid reasons and the fact that
I have to pull up my grades. Because of last year's tied up events, I left little room for studying and that reflected in my overall report card grade. I do not want the same thing happening to me and I want a shift in all these things. I am a crammer, in case you don't know, and a professional at that, but this year, I am hoping to perfectly obliterate every percentage of it so that I get to pass no mediocre works. Right. I also wish to get to study always or better yet, in advance. Call me a nerd, I do not care. In fact, I have accomplished neglecting my phone for the five school days and I did survive. Then I guess, that is what will happen for the rest of the schoolyear. Hopefully.
Yes, yes. I do have complaints. And a lot of them. But then again, I know that whining about it will do nothing at all. So, I guess I have to stick with it and work with it so that I can achieve something atleast. Managing my time has never been this difficult. I get tied up in between events and have been held up in a line of endless homeworks.
Biology. I cannot believe how thick our book is! And I cannot believe the fact that we will study it all, or rather, study most of it. Everyday homework. What the hell?! I am not a science lover.. but I hope I can survive.
Anyway, putting aside my school-related life, let's talk about my new dog, PJ (Pirate Jack, derived from the movie sequel, Pirates of the Carribean). PJ's a Belgian something. (Haha!) Well, he's the type you see in malls and airports. They're the ones who sniff a lot! He's still a pup, turning 4 months this July 15, if I am not mistaken. He's sharing the cage with Roxy, my Doberman pet who has grown humungous. Anyway, he's the one who's keeping me distracted and always tempts me to veer away from school. Tsk. But hell yeah, he loves to play a lot so in a way, he takes away school pressure and stress. (P.S. He does not bark. What the heck?!)
