That you only meant well

Praise the Heavens and God Almighty!

It's Friday and the first few days of being a senior haven't killed me, and the weekend awaits us! Thank the Lord!

I enjoy all of my classes (not really English Honours, way way waaaay too much writing, but what should I have expected, right?) but what I enjoy the ABSOLUTE MOST is MY SPARE! It's effing lovely! This semester, I have English based courses only, so I've obvs got some hardcore writing ahead of me (it's freaking Lit, Law and Eng H!). But just when all the writing gets to me and I'm feeling frustrated with what I translate onto paper, or my hand starts to really ache or I'm just honestly so sick of it (and these three days HAVE made me sick of it), I finally have that free period and it feels like Heaven. There is honestly nothing like knowing you can chill after a hard period of writing, I swear. All I do is sit and play cards, or I use it to do my homework or read and it's just like being at home. Except I'm at school... but anyways, hahaha.

But seriously. Today was our first double block, which meant I HAD DOUBLE SPARE! It was three hours of freedom, God Bless my spare's soul <3 SERIOUSLY. YOU HAVE TO BE JEALOUS. WHO GETS THREE HOUR BREAK? NOBODY. Well, I won't get this again till next month so at least I've got something to look forward too!

I'm really liking the discussions in Law and all of the interesting topics we've got, for reals, but I'm kind of worried about all that we're studying and at such a fast pace. Like, Tort Law, Family Law, we just went through all of them in our 62 minute period (they're usually 82 minutes but it was shortened 'cause of double blocks today) and I reaaally need to review my notes. Put that down in my agenda later, huh? Booo.

Lit is lots of reading and writing, as expected. But really interesting (if not frustratingly long) reads, like Beowulf! I read my paper aloud today, I think that was quite... well. Anyway. I thought my essay could've been longer, hahahahaha.

English Honours, don't even get me started. Just. Whatever. Hahaha. I like the teacher and everything but it's just really boring and I get frustrated when I don't like what I write :( I just made faces at Kim who sits behind me when I got stuck, and I only distracted her more, whatever, LOL.

First Grad Council meeting was on Weds, it was great! I know of the 120 or so kids that showed up, almost or up to half of them will be lazy and drop out, but I'm so looking forward to all that we're planning - FIRST DANCE IS GOING TO BE A HALLOWEEN ONE, ALL GRADES (and you're lucky we decided all grades 'cause we despise 8th graders who just stand in the corner and make gender borders on the dance floor) AND IT WILL BE THE BOMB. Duuude, it's gonna be great. I can't wait. AND OMG I TOTALLY HAVE A COSTUME FIGURED OUT ALREADY, I CAN'T WAIT FOR HALLOWEEN.

Oh and I never mentioned that on the first day, I tracked down the locker I was assigned and it was in the WORST LOCATION EVER (aka Music/Arts department, er, no thanks). I solved it by finding the best locker roomie ever!! CLAIRE AND I WILL HAVE SUCH A DECORATED LOCKER, I SWEAR. This locker is in the Languages Wing and after school today I went to the Dollar Store to buy decorations and Claire's already developing the pictures and okay once we're all done designing I will take a picture of it and put it on here :) Re-applied for my regular After School Tutoring job, money, here I (hopefully) come :)

And I believe that's all.

Here is the first homework list of the year:

LAW

• Review 'Divisions of Law' notes

ENG

• Final essay question
• Literary terms

Not bad, not bad, right!? If I spend this weekend wisely, I'm sure I can get it all done! (We should all probably be realistic and know that I might not review my Law notes :( Oh well! Hahaha)

Seee you kids later.
