This journal is starting to become me-centric. XP

@ randomjunk - Yeah, ranting! And when I type in a URL wrong, it always takes me to some search engine and if I've never been to the site before I get all confused and stuff! Oh yes, and it's high school; there's a bunch of private high schools in the area and I'm looking into going to one of them because I don't particularly like the public high school in my area.
@ Dilated - You don't know how many times we've told her to move on, but she's just so stubborn that it's turning arrogant.
@ Silver-dot- - How poetic... everyone here has such a way with words! XP

I went to an MSDA open house yesterday, which was Sunday. Here's that obligatory comparison thingie that none of you probably care about but it'll help me when I ultimately have to choose.
- Technically the school itself is three levels, two above ground and a basement with science labs and such, but I'm not sure about navigation around the school itself.
+ Can't really say much about the technology, though the science labs looked considerably better than QP's. The computer labs looked all right, kinda average.
+ I don't know how to explain it, but the teachers seemed way more dedicated, fun, and most importantly, interesting than QP's.
+ I think somebody mentioned the entire student body was around 330? Not bad.
+ Award-winning newspaper and literary journals? <10
+ I couldn't really tell a lot about the student body.
+ (see above about staff)
/ I couldn't tell exactly how much time it took to get there, as we stopped by to look at where Lacordaire was on the way, so I can't really estimate how long it would take to get there. Though I would have to use some other type of transportation, seeing that everyone else will still be going to STA next year.
+ Softball and volleyball teams check. Though I can't be involved in any kind of play or musical, which both sounded really awesome, but it's for the sake of physical fitness! I'm not as interested in those anyway.
/ Scholarship yes! But it'll probably be really hard, since they said that they only give out one full scholarship and two half ones =/ And if I don't get one, then I probably can't go there.

Another plus, it's Seton Hall Prep's sister school, so they have dances with them. Dances with Seton Hall = see most of the guys from STA (including Andrew!) I don't know if I should be so ecstatic about that though, since it's only once a year. >.< Still, you never know. So yes...
Only downside is, of course, that it's an all-girls school. But I thought it would be horrible and it didn't turn out to be so horrible. The points they bring up about being able to do without guys in the class, I actually noticed them during class right now! Wow...

I'm sorry for not reading other people's journals lately. I don't have a lot of time... Yeah I shouldn't be making excuses, it's rude. But I still have a lot of social studies. Ms. S thinks the only subject we do is social studies, how many reports are do before the end of October? Damn...

I was really pissed off today.

A bunch of stuff that I'd rather not talk about, so here...
We go to Paramus to look at PC and while we're driving, my dad keeps making random comments, such as "LOOK! IT'S TOO FAR!" and the whole time I'm thinking, "WTF THEN WHY DID YOU LET ME PUT IT DOWN AS A CHOICE?"
So yeah, I almost started crying because they, of course, wanted to make me feel bad because if I did choose to go there, they would go through so many hardships, etc, that kinda thing, if I got into clubs and groups and such. Because then they'd have to pick me up from school and it's pretty much an hour there and back.
It looked like such a good school too.

I hate hypocrites. I'll make this transition easy! My parents told me to put down St. Mary's and PC for my 2nd and 3rd choices, right? Well now they're saying that they're both too far. Right after I hear about how cool the Mount is! So here they are, two wasted spaces, and we'll have to send an application to the Mount manually.
And at school! Some of the boys act like such good friends with the girls and then behind their backs they call them bitches and sluts. I guess that was more last year because they never really talk these days (besides Bryan, but he loves them so whatever). But still! Even between the boys, mostly last year once again, they all said they hated each other but I guess they've made up. But they used to act like good friends in real life! I don't know if they still hold grudges against each other, but whatever.

I kinda feel sorry for Andrew. The only person that really likes him nowadays is Alyssa, between both "friends" and crushes. They all think he's a cocky bastard. Hell, I even think that, but he already knows I hate him. But still, it's kinda weird that Alyssa is still so determined with him even though we're graduating. He's not going to BHS, just get over it, there's not the biggest chance that you guys would work out anyway.

Sigh. I haven't been reading a lot of nutangers blogs lately, I'm sorry. =[ Actually, I don't think I've read anyone's. I'm really tired.

randomjunk - Yeah, I just kinda need to do it here since the people I rant about know about my xanga, heh.

Silver-dot- - You guys are all really cool, how could I not? =D

thisdisease - I honestly have no clue about college. I'm really used to private schools though, I've been there for as long as I can remember so it would be kinda hard to adjust to a public school.

I'll right more later. South Park! OMG IKE IS SO CUTE BUT EWW KINDERGARTEN AFFAIR?


P.S. I wanna hear you guys' voices!

Hahahaha, I guess if you wanna. I mostly set that up there for my friends though.

"Why are you all studying so hard? It's just a frickin test!"

And I hate how Michelle, Alyssa, Derek, and any of them that're going to Bloomfield High think they can just waltz right through the coops and not worry shitless about them like everybody else is.

Michelle: "Ms. A is making me go to the coop review."
Alyssa: "Aww, I'm gonna be by myself!"
Me: "Uh, Ms. A's gonna make you do it too."
Alyssa: "What?! I don't see the point in that!"

It just pisses me off so much! And nowadays, Alyssa doesn't even seem to care about homework anymore, probably because she "doesn't see a point" since they're going to public schools. JUST BECAUSE YOUR GRADES DON'T MATTER DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD SLACK OFF. That's like saying I shouldn't eat because I'm gonna die anyway, what's the point? Almost everybody's in the coop review thing, they think that just because the grades don't matter means that they don't have to worry about it and that they can just do horribly on it so it doesn't matter! And they were all like "It's unfair!" when they said that everybody has to take the test. IF YOU DIDN'T, THEN IT WOULD BE UNFAIR TO US BECAUSE EVERYBODY WOULD'VE HAD TO TAKE THE TEST EXCEPT FOR YOU SELFISH WHINY damn i forgot the word oh wait yeah LAZY BASTARDS.

MY FUCKING GOSH I would ask Ciara if she's noticed it too but NOOOOOO ALYSSA has to drag her everywhere and if I even TRY to talk to Ciara alone Alyssa would be all on our backs like "OMG WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT? HURRY UP CAUSE I WANT CIARA ALL TO MY FUCKING SELF AGAIN!" I mean, Victoria is really cool and stuff but I don't wanna be drifting away from Ciara 'cause this'll probably be our last year together.

Only thing is, I don't want to go to high school with any of my friends. I've prepared myself so much for a year without any of them, so when Ciara said she might go to QP, I was kinda pissed since she was apparently set on Lacordaire for a while. And I had already emotionally prepared myself and I got, well, kinda disappointed. It's confusing, I know. Well I mean I thought Alyssa was my bestest friend and I was so happy to be in her homeroom this year but now it's like "WTF HAPPENED TO YOU FUCKING APATHETIC BITCH?" and now I honestly can't stand her when it comes to schoolwork.

DAMMIT This annoyed me right here: GPEA?
So even if we weren't going to a private school, you'd still have to take standardized tests in public schools. WTF KIDS YOU DON'T GET AUTOMATICALLY EXEMPT BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO LAZY TO FUCKING PICK YOUR OWN SCHOOL BUT GO TO THE SCHOOL THAT YOUR [GRADUATED] SISTERS WENT TO! (I guess Derek's kinda exempt from that 'cause his brother's still there but whatever) "i already decided in first grade that i wanted to go to a public school" WTF THEN WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST GO TO A PUBLIC SCHOOL FROM THE BEGINNING? DIDN'T YOU THINK ABOUT THE FRIENDS YOU WOULD'VE MADE AND LOST WHEN YOU WENT TO A PUBLIC SCHOOL? IF YOU DIDN'T WANT YOUR PARENTS TO WASTE THEIR MONEY, WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO MOVE TO STA WHEN YOU COULD'VE JUST GONE TO SOME PUBLIC SCHOOL?

And it kinda makes me mad how their siblings couldn't even pick a private school, maybe they couldn't afford it or anything but honestly, why are you in a private school if you can only barely afford it right now? I was like "you don't want your parents to spend money on your education, yet you're going to sta? WHAT'S THE FUCKING POINT?" well I didn't really say that cause that would've been mean but I guess you kinda get it.

I wish I could get revenge. Like going out with Andrew or something. >=O But as much as I would like that to happen, it's probably not. He's going to Seton Hall anyway, all boys. IT PISSED ME OFF HOW SHE'S LIKE "I KNIT YOU A SCARF, NOW YOU HAVE TO GO TO BLOOMFIELD HIGH WITH ME!" Like WTF he didn't ask you to knit the scarf for him but he has to listen to your choice of HIGH SCHOOL for him? It must be in her mind that high school is just some kinda throwaway thing. Well, if you have a FUCKING CHOICE of like 20 HIGH SCHOOLS, you really want to think about it instead of just going where your UNREQUITED love tells you to! At least he fucking said that his parents won't let him. I would've said the same thing, even if my parents let me, I wouldn't want a controlling bitch like that.


Yeah, I don't care if you read all of that or not. I just wanted to get that out in the fucking open.

There's this kindergartener in my school that apparently has cancer, right? So we're having a tag day (my school has uniforms - on tag days you can wear your own clothes for a fee of usually $1) to help raise money for him. Among the first questions asked by my parents about him...
Mom: "How old is he?"
Me: "3 years old, it says."
Dad: "Is he Filipino?"
Me: "Uh.. [reads his last name, which doesn't sound Filipino]. (mumbling) what does it matter... he's a three year old with cancer..."

And on TFC, it's always the featured performer and, like, a million backup dancers. They're all doing the same routine, sometimes the backup dancers actually have better dance moves. And in some cases, more often than not, the featured performer sucks harder than their backup dancers. Which pisses me off so much, since they're the only ones that get credit.

I've been thinking about what would happen if my friends and I had a fall out. Like, how it can't just be Michelle and Caitlin, they need a third person. And I've been thinking, since I'm getting into American bands now, which is Caitlin's turf, she might get pissed or something at me for "ruining" her bands. I'm just listening to "ruined" leftovers of ILUSM like Cartel and hellogoodbye, but I've been thinking about what would happen if I told her. She's way to protective of her bands, once ILUSM starts "listening" (a.k.a. one song, which she doesn't get) they're totally ruined and you can't listen. Then I'm thinking about her yelling at me for listening to what ILUSM listens (read: listened) to, and then another thing will happen like that whole deal with me and Alyssa fighting over Ciara, when I'm just looking out for the best for people I get messed up.

Apathy and laziness are so annoying. Alyssa's been holding off getting stuff for our join Spanish project because "she's too lazy to look for it". WTF MAN it's a friggin assignment! Just because your grades for any of your last years at STA or SHS don't count because you're just gonna follow your brother and sister to a public high school which you apparently chose in first grade doesn't mean I have to suffer and take all of the work while you just fail and get into high school anyway!

DAMN.

IT'S SRSLY OCTOBER?
There goes the first month of school!

So I guess I kinda procrastinated today.
But it's only like, what, two things for homework?

Social studies, I'll just read 'cause it's already nine. I'm wasting notebook paper outlining it anyway.
Science, I'll just guess and the chart should be easy as well.
Spanish, I'm doing it right now.

Hey look, all my subjects that I have for homework start with S.

I've been wasting my time on Gaia again. T__T Oh well, now all I need is that scepter and my avatar shall be complete! Yessiree. Nobody's going into my quest thread though, pretty much two or three solid pages of bumping. Oh well.

Time to learn about the Bambuca.
