  • Physics was hilarious today, especially when Mr. Blankenhorn gave us some insight to how his earlier years of teaching were like =p.  Anyway, during physics today, I showed steph my permit test from last year so she could cram some of it into her brain.  During class, Mr. Blankenhorn talked about how he used to teach in a really run down place.  There were constant gang fights and everything.  He taught like 8th grade math for a semester at this middle school.  The previous semester before him were taught by five teachers.  Five teachers because each teacher kept leaving, simply not being able to handle how messed up the students were.  Mr. Blankenhorn talked about how they used to call him Blankey instead of Blankenhorn and about how he used cigarettes as a motivation for the students.  For example, if the students performed well, studied, or did their homework, he would reward them with a cigarette.  That really cracked me up, but what really cracked me up the most was how Mr. Blankenhorn called Arnold Swarzenneggar his homeboy LMAO!  Anyway one time, he related, a gang was hanging around him, and even threatened him, but then this other gang “took” him in sort of, and like had good relations with him, so the other gang couldn’t really do much.  Anyway, after that one semester, Mr. Blankenhorn got a job at AHS teaching math lmfao.  Anyway, today I went home and chilled for like an hour, and after that, I left the house and drove to school to pick up Michael to get his guitar string restrung.  On the way I drove past Judith, which reminded me that she was getting jamba juice.  I thought she was going to get me one, but I guess not, or maybe she got it for jo.  Anyways, I took Michael home first to get his amp, and then his guitar, and then from there we went on first ave, to this music shop, where he got a new string, and some other little stuff.  Then I took him to Well’s house, so he could practice with them, their band.  They had a concert or something coming up.  After that, I had a sociology quiz later the day, so I printed out the articles.  I was planning to read 2 chapters of sociology later too, but then I got so caught up playing unreal nations, that I killed most of the time and only had time to read one of the articles.  I finished the second article during class at PCC.  When I got to PCC, I read the syllabus again, and then I realized in shock that I messed up.  I messed up BAD.  Part of the reason would be the poorly made syllabus, which was confusingly put together, but also because I didn’t pay meticulous attention.  Anyway, I had a sociology TEST on that day, for FIVE chapters.  This meant that, even IF I did read two chapters, I still would have been screwed.  I was so freakin scared LOL, especially when there is only three tests, four quizzes, for our entire grade.  Anyway I aced the quiz, (which was on the articles, and you could have your articles out anyway, more like open notes quiz).  When the test came up, I was so freakin scared.  But then after I took it, it didn’t seem hard at all.  A lot of it was freakin common sense.  I guess its because it’s Sociology, and a lot of it IS common sense, but it still scared the shiet out of me LOL.  When I got home, my dad told me that the report card came.  Anyway he told me to not be sad and we should just try to do what we still can, the last summer before college begins.  After that, I stayed up really late helping kim chang study

  • Not much happened today. I couldn’t stop falling asleep in physics, and then, after class, I slept for four hours, from 1-5 pm. After I woke up, I went to ELAC, to apply for comp sci classes. I thought it would be quick, so I could pick up my brother on the way back. But it turned out, I needed to see a counselor to request for more units. The wait was like, 40+ minutes. And so I ended up picking my bro like 50 minutes late. And he had to go somewhere by 7, to pick up something. So I drove like freakin hella fast, and we made it there by 6:55. LOL. Boring day really. Slept at 1, sort of because I slept so much in the afternoon, and also because break is so addicting, endless videos sheesh. At least I had company, the nocturnal, or biologically timed to Taiwan, woke up recently. Jo really needs to stop waking up at 9 am and sleeping at 9 pm Taiwan time, because we are IN CALIFORNIA. -.–

    Anyway. This has got to be the shortest post ever. Also because I procrastinated on this post, so I’m kind of lazy to write more for this entry >.>.

  • Mannn, got the physics test back today, I got a 38/42 at first, which is roughly a 90%. But afterwards I talked to Mr. Blankenhorn about a problem, and got a point back. Afterwards, he curved it by adding 10 points to both total possible, and total received, so my total score was 49/52, putting me at 94% =). That’s really awesome, made me happy, especially when the curve is at 70% for an A. At this rate, i can ace my first few tests, and 50% the rest of them LOL. Anyways, today went to PCC, and dropped the freakin automotive technology class because that shiet’s not even UC approved, so why take it, and spend 4 and a half hours, 5 hours if u count driving time, taking a class for absolutely no reason. The subject’s not even that important, especially when you could probably learn about cars if you really wanted to, simply just by research, if you were really really that interested. I didn’t really do much today, after I came back from dropping my classes, I drove with my mom to get our car fixed, the van that I always drive around kept leaking oil. It turns out that something was just loose, so they tightened it for free, freakin awesome. After that, my mom took my aunt to the library to go check out some easy children videos for my cousins to learn English. They took almost two and a half hours, those two hours which I utilized extremely well, by playing video games of course. The boy (shiet I gotta figure out his English name, I know his Chinese name, but it isn’t going to be long before everyone calls him by his English name), kept watching. Of course, I invited him to play, but he declined. I guess he was just shy, but I could tell he really wanted to play. Oh well.

    Afterwards we played basketball again, this time it was even more interactive that yesterday, even though the oldest still didn’t really move around, but stayed in one spot. She doesn’t really know how to play basketball. But the boy is really really annoying. I really feel bad for her, because she has to put up with all that crap. Like the boy just wouldn’t shut his mouth, he’d keep running on and on about how she’s a flowerpot, having not really moved every time we play basketball. Or he’d pick on her when she has the ball, packing her, or stealing the ball from her. (They travel all the time, but whatevers). Anyway she got so mad that she started yelling (not really screaming) at him, and saying all this shiet at him. Then he kept being an asshole until she like pinched him really hard. After that, he still kept on running his mouth. God, so annoying. Anyway, since she’s the oldest, she’s supposed to have more responsibility, and this is why I feel so bad for her. Because the older kids are supposed to let the younger kids, and I think she got in trouble with her mom afterwards. Damn, why is the kid so god damn annoying. Anyway, even though the oldest doesn’t seem to be happy a lot of times, maybe cause she didn’t want to move here at all (but most kids are like that after they move), but she has a short temper with a lot of her siblings, I really empathize with her, because having 4 younger siblings running around always messing, of course you’d lose your temper sometimes. The second oldest, is really chill, she’s so happy. I don’t know but she’s one of those kids who just lighten the mood wherever they go, she’s pretty carefree. The freakin boy needs to chill out, seriously. Not only does he run his mouth, when his sister gets angry, he threatens her by claiming that he’s going to tell on her. Anyway, today I found out that the older three kids all differ by a year each, which is pretty cool. I also heard that between the siblings, even though a lot of times they hang together, they have cliques too, mini-cliques actually haha. The older girls are together, and the boy with his younger two sisters, I’m guessing because he’s “bigger” than them.

    I watched battle royale today. Dude it’s so damn crazy. OMG crazy, I love that movie. Must rewatch it again sometime in the future. And I MUST watch the second one!!

  • So today I went to Mike’s. Freakin talked to him about my crappy GPA, crappy C in math, crappy SAT scores, and crappy outlook for my future. But what the heck, =p. Anyway, after that, practiced some for SAT’s and then went home. After that I tried my ass off to reread philosophy. That shiet freakin made me fall asleep soo many times, its SO damn boring. Then I basically did nothing except play watch break all freakin day. My brother brought his laptop over, and then we took the philosophy test together. I got 44/50 whoot (curve is 80% is an A in that class =P, because I started late, for the usuals, its 75% actually). For some reason, my brother got 40/50 instead, but since he has a 75% curve for an A, he’s chill about it. My cousins and I played basketball today! Not very full of action, because half of them don’t know how to play basketball, and they don’t really know how to dribble. But it was fun anyway. My uncle went back to Taiwan. Today I started on my philosophy essay so freakin late, I procrastinated like hell, but I still cranked out a page. It was due like at 11:30, and I started at 10:40.

  • So yea, tomorrow is Yurika’s birthday party, a “little” early, but still its her birthday party (at a beach). The problem is my dad’s been yelling at me all day every single day now, and even when I’m being a freaking good kid, and studying and shit, he still bags on me. It’s not even funny, so I can’t go out for ANYTHING. The only thing I can go out to do now, is only to play basketball, or other sports. Anything else, or anything considered “fun,” I basically can’t do. This really sucks. Yurika’s like a close friend too =(. I’m practically grounded until freakin college application’s due date. FFS GAY.

    I didn’t do much today, philosophy is so freakin boring I can’t help but fall asleep or zone out every other sentence, and I have a test, and the deadline is tomorrow! BLAH. Anyway not much today, went out to eat dinner with so many people (relatives). So many of my cousins were there, besides the ones I’m living with. Alex and Winnie were there too, and so was Leo. Malinda went too, she happened to be in town (no I’m not related to her). My uncle’s wife (my aunt, but not a blood related aunt, but I love her anyway), had her family there too, like her two sisters and THEIR kids too, so the place was practically packed. There were probably more kids than adults there.

    I’m mad, its summer, and I am absolutely forbidden from having fun.

    I couldn’t go to Thomas’ party today either, and in a week from now, I can’t go to Angie’s. So many parties, so many disappointments. BAH.

  • Man first physics test in the entire summer.  I think I did really well on it, especially when the class is set at 70% for an A.  I actually think summer might not be as stressful as I thought it would be.  I may have a lot of classes, but I think all of them are pretty chill.  The only problem would probably be studying for SAT’s both I and II and also the college apps + personal statements.  Still, it really sucks that my dad thinks that I have more than what I really do.  Because now I can’t even go any freakin where.  It sucks so much ass.  Anyway.  So today after physics, ate lunch and came home.  Then I went bowling with a whole lot of people.  There were like Kenneth, Kenny, Bo, Chris, Vanessar, Danny, Petter, Allen, Sean, Willy, Jeff,  Richie.  More people came later but I had to get home before 6, in case my dad decided to come home early.  Anyways, I sucked ass in the beginning, I think its becaues I had to warm-up, because I started doing okay later on.  On the second game I played, it was a gamble, losers pay the winners’ game.  The teams were me, Vanessa, and Kenneth verses Chris, Bo, and Jeff.  Since they believed they were so much better than us, they decided to put on a handicap, and say that they’d have to beat us by 20 to win the bet.  I don’t remember the final score, but I remember that we beat them by 8.  Which was funny, because even if there was no handicap, we would have won anyways.  They asked for double or nothing, even, this time, meaning no handicap.  I did so bad on this game, particularly because Chris is very distracting.  It was more funny than annoying, but likewise it screwed up my gameplay.  I don’t mind it so much to be annoying because he was hilarious, and I always mess around too.  But I also like to win, so oh well.  At the end it was a very close game, and I was the last person to bowl.  They were winning by 17 and I had to bowl 18 to win, or else it would be a tie.  I bowled and hit like 6 or 7, and then I spared, which got me another shot.  After this we needed 8 points to win, 7 points to tie.  They all got up and were about to distract me, but Kenneth got them to sit back down.  But I don’t know, I think I got my concentration messed up anyway.  Because after that, I only hit one, which really pissed me off because I knew I was fully capable of hitting at least 8.  Oh well, whatever, there’s always next time.  And we’ll rock them next time =P.  Vanessar really pwned that round though, like she striked more than once, and spared a couple of times.  She had the highest score in our team, and second only to Chris.  After that I drove home quick style, in case my dad came home early, because it was already six.  And I tried to read more philosophy, which failed,  because its so damn boring.

    After dinner they started playing basketball and other stuff in the backyard, my cousins I mean.  I went outside, but I didn’t really play, I just sat outside.  Too shy I guess >.>, which is really retarded, because I’m older than all of them.  Still, they’re family, and they’re all really close to each other again, so that still makes me the outsider, and not them.  But I am older, so I don’t know, whatevers.

  • okay so ima try this from now on, ima try to type in the correct spelling, gramar i might try later.  but for now, i’m going to try to post every single boring day of my life…. and occasional thoughts and whatever i haves in my life that i might want to remember or reminisce upon years from now.  i know i sound like a freakin old person.. even though im not even like… considered a full adult yet =P.  i’ll catch up on stuff i havn’t written down yet, later on, maybe sometime senior year…anyway.. startin today..

    So today I went to school, returned my school books, but brought the wrong chemistry book -.-”.  After that I went to physics class.  During break Eric Cheung came in and used Mr. Blankenhorn’s computer, and omg he got a 800 on physics SAT.  That’s like the hardest SAT.  AMAZING.  Anyway Physics seems like a possible interest subject for me.  Perhaps I’ll major in math and science, and maybe the reason I hate math so much, or I think I do, is because all my math teachers made me hate it.  So today I gave Jasmine her pen back, which I borrowed the last day of school to sign yearbooks.  It’s such a coincidence because the last day, after I signed hers, I continued to sign a couple of others, but she left.  And I was like OMG, where is she!!  How do I return her pen now.  And then summer school starts, and I’m sitting next to Jazzy.  That’s pretty funny, even though I completely forgot to return her pen until today.  Which is day three of summer school.  Later in the afternoon I went to PCC to buy the sociology 1 book.  Society: the Basics

    So my relatives finally arrived today from Taiwan.  Yes, they’re actually going to move in.  Amazing, five cousins, four girls and one boy, the boy being the middle child.  All of them are younger than me, but I’m sort of looking forward to becoming really great friends with them.  So like it’s still kind of awkward right now.  We aren’t yet on talking temrs, and I don’t even know three of the five children’s names.  But that’s fine, I’m not that worried because I’m sure that I’ll soon be cool with them.  I mean, I have to live with them right?  Anyway, the last time I saw them was, I believe, three years ago?  They grew so much it’s amazing.  Every single one of them, except the guy of course.  The two older girls were really short and still like children back when I saw them.  Now they’re supposed to be like freshman and eight grade (even though my mom says that they’re going to try to get them admitted into seventh and eighth grade) which I believe is a wise choice.  After all, they still need to learn how to speak english fluently.  Anyway, they’ve grown so much, they would actually fit in if they went to high school.  They don’t look like the little kids that they did before.  As for the younger two girls, one is going to be in first grade, and the other would be going to third grade-ish.  The little one grew a lot too, taller, and more mobile, haha.  The second youngest girl has this atrocious (no offense =P) haircut that makes her look a little like a guy.  But she still sounds and acts the same, which is cool haha.  As for the guy, I swear, he didn’t change at all except a teeny bigger.  When I say bigger, I mean bigger, not fatter, not taller.  Just bigger.  As if someone magnifed him by a tiny bit, because he’s not that much bigger than before.  Well, they’ve moved in.  And after this year, literally (not school year), i’ll be more free and I can chill with them too.  I’m supposed to tutor them and teach them stuff, like English, and piano.  Maybe other stuff too, but whatever, at least I’m going to have a lot more time on my hands.

    Since this is the beginning of my daily posts, I’m going to set an example, the stuff is solely about events today, or stuff from today.  If I want to recount entire events that occured in the past, but that I want to remember.  I have to put it in another post.  Otherwise I’m going to have long ass, and unorganized posts.  Which is bad too, because if my daily posts were super long everyday.  I’d be pretty reluctant to want to post every single day.
