Lost: [...I'm too lazy to do TV rants in my LJ. I'm just going to do them here, even if no one cares about them.]
holy fuck, they actually killed Boone off. It seemed way too obvious to actually happen, which I suppose was part of the shock. It was well done, though. Another awesome episode. ...why do shows always kill off the pretty ones? [sigh]

Claire and her baby were too cute [...although was it just me, or were his eyes freakishly dark? Babies are all born with blue eyes, and Claire's eyes are rather light. It looked bizarre.], and so were Charlie and Claire together.

...ok so I have nothing left to say. wheeeee.

French: test stuff! went through multiple choice after everyone finished, and I somehow managed a 100. awesome. my grade was brought up to a 94.1 with more verb quizzes, and this should help also. and all my studying for this test took place in about 10 min before school! this is why french is awesome. ...though we didn't get to see what we got on listening comprehension, and she said she was going to scale the grades to a 20 [25 was the total possible], so... that's not looking very positive. ...but they'll be scaled! and I think I probably got between 18-20. So yes.

Office Hours: attempted to study for math, failed, and instead sat next to Cindy while Soan quizzed her about AP US crap from an AP US Princeton Review book thing. I actually found myself knowing the right answer for most of them, which I find positive. ...I'm still going to be totally screwed for the DBQ and essays, though. sigh.

English: presented our poem. It actually went a lot better than I thought it would :) awesome. ...that was kind of it. took all period.

Algebra 2: gah. I got so stuck on the test. I got stuck at the one with the k's and stuff, since I had no clue what they were asking. Then I realized you could easily just set the expression equal to 0, plug in 4 for x, and then solve for k. I wasted a lot of time staring at that question, though. I also wasted time on that one where you end up having 4 variables [a, b, c, and d] and they give you the four sets of coordinates and then you plug in the x-values for x and the y-values for y, so you'll get like... -14=8a+4b+2c+d or whatever. but instead of it being like that, i somehow kept the degrees, so it was 8a^3 + 4b^2 + 2c + d and I knew that looked wrong, but I forgot how to do it exactly, and then I ended up with b^2=-2, and it wasn't the sort of problem you'd have i's and such in there, and I kept getting myself really confused, before realizing that, duh, you don't keep the degree. agh. so I had about 20 min for the graphing calculator part, where I ended up getting stuck on the last problem! sigh. I finally figured it out like... 1 min after the bell rang, and I rushed to finish it. Luckily she was nice and didn't throw us all out immediately. And I believe I actually managed to get it right. awesome. blah. I'm nervous about this test now, though. It started off fine, but there were a few I was unsure of, and I never had the time to check my answers. sigh.

blah. I hate that there's the multiple choice part of the science test tomorrow x___x otherwise, i could just relax all afternoon. ack. screw the science test [...for now]. I'm not going to start studying. The Algebra 2 test totally exhausted me. I'm leaving that till later x____X

Tenor Teacher: What's a third?
Me: uh. it's like... when... there's a note... and the next is the third up from it? ...[frustrated] I know what it is, I just can't explain it!
Tenor Teacher: [keeps asking me and giving "hints" so I finally am able to explain it].
Me: ...[whatever] x____x
Tenor Teacher: See, I know you know what thirds are. I'm just trying to teach you how to articulate what they and other musical terms are. You shouldn't get so frustrated with yourself when you can't explain things like that.

...uh. actually, no. i was frustrated with you because you were pissing me off, because I clearly knew what they were and told you I couldn't explain it and you kept dragging it on. you clearly don't know me very well.

blah. Oh, and I like how like... 2 months ago I was doing a minor scale exercise in my book and he was all "Ok, what's a minor scale?" and I couldn't explain and then he went into something about it that was confusing, and then a week later Bentley/Austerman explained minor scales and how to form them, and then like a month later I had a different minor scale exercise and he was all "So, what's a minor scale?" and I rattled off what I was taught because they explained it in ways that made sense, and he was all "Wow, I must've gone over this with you!" And I was like "...no. I learned this in school. You have taught me NOTHING." ...minus the last part. I'm not mean to him to his face. Just behind his back.

I had a really awesome dream last night and I was totally going to blog about it, but now I've forgotten it -_____- rar. I hate it when that happens. I remember it being really amusing, too. blah.

...I should study. I'd rather kill time until the new episode of Veronica Mars at 9. :)

French: uh. stuff.

Science: test. let us not speak anymore of it.

English: er groups and analyzed poems. blah. i should probably think a little more about what I'm going to say, because I can explain it to other people, but... it involves a lot of stumbling over my words and such.

AP US: notes.

Algebra 2: quizzes back. blah, i thought i had done well, but I ended up getting a 70. x____x whatever. that's not even my worst quiz grade this year. I tend to care a lot more about tests than quizzes. quizzes are just like "screw it". and this quiz was the day after the concert, and we all know how well I do when I have quizzes/tests the day after a concert. sigh. I'll study a bunch for the test, and I'll be fine.

Wind Ensemble: music. rar.

ah, new Veronica Mars tonight! ...but not before a lesson. blah. x___x I actually did practice for once! ...but it was a week ago. sigh. Can't wait till 9 -_____-

hm. I'm writing my paragraph for English on Word, and it seems obscenely short. =/ It's not that bad, either. It just seems short. Perhaps I need to explain the different stuff I've been saying more -____- gah.

;alksfjd today is death.

French: ...uh. -_____- French-ish stuff.

Science: god I hate science. I hate Tran. a;lskjf blah. I am so screwed for tomorrow. x____X Also, I like how it's all "Ok, well, the mutliple choice is going to be from this 250 question review packet too, and not just the 8 question short answer, right?" and he's all "No, the multiple choice is from a review thing at Science Joy Wagon! I told you guys this Friday!" and we're all "...no. you did not." and he's all "Oh, I must have only told 1st period. Oh well!" Thank you, Mr. Tran. You're so very helpful. [dies]

English: uh. went over poem stuff we wrote a paragraph on last week. gah. i don't want to rewrite mine x___x i can't think of a thesis/topic sentence. I fail.

AP US: notes. oh, and multiple choice back x___x I got a 20/25. alsfkjd I really studied for this, too. blah. well, Richard said it was curved out of 24, but... that's not that much better. We will have to see how this affects my grade after we get the short answer back. Then I'll know what the curve is now. Plus, I have a feeling I did a hell of a lot better on that. I better have had. -___-

Algebra 2: homework. review. rar.

Wind Ensemble: uh, music-playingness. oh, and Nathan abused me a lot at the beginning of the period. >:O

I hate how it's all "god, I can't wait till I get back home, so I can... -_____- spend the rest of the afternoon doing my science project and studying for the science quiz tomorrow." sigh. x____x

This week is fucking cruel:
Tuesday: Science Free Response Test.
Wednesday: French Chapter 5 Test. Algebra 2 Chapter 8 Test.
Thursday: Science Multiple Choice Test.
Friday: English Harlem Renaissance Poetry Quiz.

4/6 classes I have tests in, and I don't think band should be included in that, so 4 out of 5! >:O!!! gah. I can't wait until Spring Break. -________-

you all suck. -________-


wheeee new layout at my icon journal. finally. x___x i had the Buffy from the end of Becoming Part 2 one for like a month, then I put up a Charlie/Claire one early January, and then the graphic stopped working because I did something stupid I didn't realize, and then I left the same ugly colors up until now. Like... 3 months. man. too long x____x

and made an icon post! wheee. very productive day, graphics-wise :)

ah! meme-type-thing time! :)

01. Post a list of 10 TV shows you watch
02. Have your friends list guess your favourite CHARACTER & PAIRING from each show
03. When guessed bold the line and write a sentence about why you like that character/ship.
04. Post in your own Livejournal/blog/whatever.

01. Veronica Mars Veronica/Logan, yes. Veronica, yes! Although Logan would be second. He's awesome too.
Veronica/Logan: I have no idea what this ship is so appealing. I love the tension and the banter between them. They're both such appealing characters to me separately, and so put them together, and it's like whoa.
Veronica: Ah, I just adore her. She's had so much shit happen the past year and a half, yet she's still so... in control. Plus, she can be really sweet at times [awww to the Veronica/Wallace (friendship!) sweetness during the last episode. I adore them together. ...just as nothing more but best friends.], and she's quite witty.
02. Arrested Development - well, favorite character should be easy for this >:O favorite character post! come on! you guys suck x____x I actually don't think I have a favorite pairing for this, though.
03. Buffy - Buffy/Angel. Well, pretty much. I've actually kind of been loving Willow/Oz just as much. But I prefer how the B/A pairing ended [a;lskfd Oz would never cheat on Willow >:O], so yes. Since when do I love Spike more than Willow? O__O;;; But yes to Oz.
Buffy/Angel: They're what made me fall in love with the show. They're why season 2 is my favorite season [...well, part of the reason]. They were just awesome together.
Oz: He was always so very amusing, and very sweet to Willow. I never believed he'd actually cheat on her. Blah. He was always my favorite [canon] Willow pairing. Too cute together.
04. Lost - Charlie/Claire, yes. Locke... hm. I actually hadn't decided who my favorite character on this was. Perhaps I should have before putting this up? The last episode made Locke my favorite temporarily, but before that I loved Claire most, probably. But I'll go with Locke, for now.
Locke: He's so intriguing, right now. How he regained use of his legs, how he lost use of his legs in the first place. His backstories have so far been my absolute favorite. A lot of the backstories I'll find boring or way too over the top, but his are just fabulous. Plus, the actor is really amazing.
Charlie/Claire: ah they're just so sweet together! Claire is [...well, usually] so sweet and carefree, and Charlie's always so protective of her. They're adorable together.
05. Gilmore Girls - ah yes, Luke/Lorelai is love. but lies on Rory. I actually hate her, these days. She was really sweet seasons 1 and 2, and I may have chosen her then [or she'd at least be in the running], but not anymore.
Luke/Lorelai: because... they're just too sweet together. I don't know. From day one is was clear that they would be forced on the viewer, but... it ended up really good. I don't know. I just love them together.
06. Everwood - psh. it's actually both Ephram/Amy and Ephram/Bright, since I can't really choose -____- but I'll go with Ephram/Amy since it's canon. Favorite character, anyone?
Ephram/Amy: I don't know. I just find it sweet. Season 1, Ephram fell for her, and now in season 3, they're finally together. I love moments like the end of that one episode early in the season where Amy told Ephram she loved him, then there was this long pause, and Ephram told her he loved her too. Too sweet. Other shows might have had him not say it back, or be all awkward after that, or something, but it was simply perfect. No unnecessary angst.
07. Charmed - Piper/Leo. Except on Charmed, I don't really care about the pairings. That's just kind of if I had to choose. And Piper is indeed my favorite character.
Piper/Leo: ...actually I don't care so much about pairings on Charmed. But I love Piper, and at one time, I found Piper and Leo to be really sweet together.
Piper: Dude, have you seen the other characters? I mean, with the exception of Chris, even if Piper wasn't totally awesome, she'd still be a hell of a lot better than anyone else. She is the sole, living, intelligent and sweet sister of the family. Plus, she's very snarky and bitchy :)
08. Angel - Lindsay, yes. Doyle/Cordelia was the other one. B/A I like, of course, but the other pairing I was referring to with Angel was actually Angel/Lindsay. hee. but I'll go with Doyle/Cordelia.
Lindsay: I don't know why I like him so much, but he's just awesome. Plus, he's really pretty.
Doyle/Cordelia: They were just really sweet together [...for the 5 seconds that they were together, and then Doyle was killed off x___x]. The banter between them was very amusing, as well.
09. Dawson's Creek - Pacey/Joey, yes. Pacey, yes!
Pacey/Joey: We were told that Dawson and Joey were soulmates and had the love of all time and blah, blah, blah, but Pacey/Joey really stole the show. Only reason I even wasted time watching it. They were always just so perfect together.
Pacey: By the end, I even hated Joey, but Pacey was still awesome. So sweet. So much better than Dawson. Ahhh.
10. The O.C. - Summer, Seth/Summer.
Summer: Started out being a bitch, but now she's my favorite character. I love the evolution she's gone through, and it's seemed really realistic, unlike Luke's, which was "Asshole one day, then kind the next, then goofy another day, then banging Marissa's mom another." She's totally sweet and too adorable for words.
Seth/Summer: ah, they're just lovely together. Too sweet and too awesome.

rar.

ahh! :DDD Alkaline Trio on the radio again! wheeee can't wait for their new CD! :DDD
