It's been too long since I've last blogged. (lol) Well, just to recap my first week..I hated it. The school, won't count my ACC credit so I plan to test out of PE or take it online. I'm not getting German..but I do have a class with Travis now..so that's a plus. I think out of the whole day, my favorite class is Anatomy and Physiology. I hate science, but the teacher is so nice and she's absolutely hilarious. Plus, I actually talk to people in that class. I am hating my English class, which is nothing new..but like..the teacher is so CONDESCENDING! I'm not even kidding. She treats us like little kids...we have to turn in vocabulary words..and she's requiring that we read 150 words or more per six weeks. I do it anyway, but she is making us write essays on it. It's an AP class..and she's REQUIRING notebook checks. She's is giving handouts and not notes..and she's acting like I have no idea how to pass a test. It's frustrating. It's just the way she says things. I can't explain it. 'I don't expect many of you guys to pass', 'I have never had less then 70% of my students pass, but I don't expect that from y'all'. Ugh..I can't stand it. Like, because we attend Del Valle High School..none of us are intelligent at all. I always have problems with my English teachers, but she's just like...juvenile. I'm an auditory learner, handouts DON'T help me. I'm so frustrated with the class. I actually miss Mrs. McCombs...and that's really hard for me to admit. We have to get all the books we read approved by her--who are you to tell me what to read? Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. I am just so frustrated. There are a few students who know what we're doing and we're all so disgusted with what she's saying. I don't like her..and I don't like how she treats her students. I ask a question and she totally ignores me. I answer her questions and she stops letting me answer. She thinks we're all idiots, but I don't think an idiot could score a 3 on last year's test. I understand this test is over literature, but don't tell me I'm an idiot..without thinking twice! Ugh. I suck at multiple choice, but I can write. Give me an essay already..and I'll prove you wrong!
Anyways, my other favorite class is Tech Theatre. I'm not loud and don't do drama well, so I opted for my fine arts credit to be Technical Theatre. This class has been so fun..so far. I really am looking forward to it. It's easy..and the teacher is great. =] I have a PE class, and what kind of PE class makes you walk around a gym for half an hour? They won't count my credit..but they'll make me walk around a Gym. I'm hating it because these little freshman, i mean sophomores, are so vulgar and disgusting. They keep making nasty comments about how they want to ________ random girls. I told them one day..to just stop because girls aren't attracted to little boys who do nothing but talk. They make fun of people all the time..I always tell them to stop. I tried ignoring it..but it's hard when they sit next to you during stretches..it's uncomfortable. I just tell them to stop when they start being stupid. For the most part, they have stopped, I know i totally sounded like a teacher or something..but I really don't care. It scared them..the rest of the class thinks they are immature..so it makes me laugh. What's with high school students standing up for what's right when they realize it's not cool to be an idiot? They all laughed at these boys..but as soon as I tell them it's not funny and that they need to stop..suddenly they agree and stop laughing? I guess I just made them realize that they can have fun and be mature about it.
So, I'm hoping this year gets better. It's already looking better. I'm kind of sad because I can't wear skirts to school because of PE. We don't get to dress out. I think I'm going to anyway and I'll change at lunch..and walk around in b-ball shorts the rest of the day. lol.
