Goody-goody, I have my first two finals today. French and Chemistry. What a way to boost my self-confidence. I have to get a grand total of -2% on my chemistry. Dat's gonna be a piece of cake. French...I'm not quite sure about my average, but I'm pretty convinced that I can get a fairly low grade and still get an A for my semester average.
As for the grand plan that I had for yesterday? *shakes head* It went wrong right away in the morning. I woke up at 7:00 instead of 6:30, so I took a bus later, and got to school at 8:00, not 7:30. Did I go to the art room to finish up my stapling needs? No! I chatted with my friends and was almost late for first period. Upon getting home, I bummed around for an hour or so, before sitting down to practice the piano at 6:30 (instead of at 5:00!) French and chem review? Forget it! I started working on my WiTT instead, but switched over to math in the middle of it all. Bwah. It felt so weird, doing math problems from the beginning of the semester. Did I do chapter 3? Ha! I repeat...HA!!! No, I laughed my head off reading a fanfic, and didn't even read a page of the Shakespeare biography before going to bed. Now how do you like that?

I'm busy organizing my Winamp playlist, and those little read-only tags are driving me NUTS! I mean, I want to write down what series a song is from, or better yet, spell the artist's name correctly, but Winamp tells me that I can't modify the info because the tag is "read only". Argh!
I'm making such tremendous progress, though. A week ago half of my playlist was song titles only. Now I'm finding the names of the artists, and writing them down along with the albums and the anime series. I'm so organized. I love it.
Okay. I'm gonna think of a plan for tomorrow, and try to follow it. Here we go.
6:30 AM - Wake up, etc.
7:30 AM - Be at school, take thousands of staples out of my art painting
8:25 AM - French. Listen to find out what the final is like, then work on art homework.
9:20 AM - Chemistry. Pretend to pay attention, then resume working on art.
10:20 AM - WiTT. Pay as much attention as possible, discuss the final with random people.
11:10 AM - Lunch. Eat my pesto roll and finish art if not done. Possibly review math.
11:45 AM - History. We have a study day, so I'll work on my final essay, or finish my art. Again, I might study for math.
12:40 PM - Math. Review, review, review. Don't take your eyes off of the blackboard.
1:35 PM - Theater. Think about WiTT and history essays.
2:30 PM - Art. Put the finishing touches on my watercolor, do whatever. Don't forget to turn in the (hopefully finished) homework assignment.
3:30 PM - Run to Walgreens, buy...stuff, run home, eat.
5:00 PM - Practice the piano.
6:00 PM - Do a quick review of French and Chemistry.
7:00 PM - Write history essay. Begin WiTT essay if possible.
8:30 PM - Have a snack break. Doodle or something.
9:00 PM - Study math. Do chapters 2 and 3, if it kills me.
11:00 PM - Read mah dear, dear Shakespeare biography. Drift to sleep an hour later.
Well, there it is. My plan for tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes on Tuesday. No, honestly, do you think I'll be able to blog tomorrow? Heh. I didn't think so either.
So, I'm off to work on my art homework. Squares it is, not circles. Not triangles. Not random shapes derived with complex mathematical equations. Squares.

Ahhhh...chocolate ice-cream gives me a reason to live. Let's face it, I'm a chocoholic. With some people it's drugs, with some it's alcohol, with me it's chocolate. Yeah, you heard right. I'm a CHOCOHOLIC, and proud of it, baby!
Lesse now...rose -- squares or circles? Or maybe triangles? Or maybe random shapes derived with complex mathematical equations? Naahhh...I'll stick to good ol' squares, I think.

Finally, I've got a good idea and a good image for the art project. It all looks so pretty in my head, but I'm sure that once I try to get it down on paper, it will look like a piece of sh*t. I'm trying to make the whole thing faily simplistic, given that it's going to be a reduction print. And reduction prints don't lend themselves well to subtle shading. I need bold lines. Bold lines, I say!
*sigh* This art project is due tomorrow, mangs! TOMORROW!!! And it will take me about two hours minimum to complete. I better start now, ne?
I resolved to review a chapter of math per day until the final, and so far, it hasn't been working very well. I reviewed the first chapter, and that was the end of my resolution. That means that I have to review five chapters in three days. Fine, only four...the last one is pretty fresh in my mind. But...*chokes* I have to get a 94 or better on the damn final, or else...
I want ice-cream. I want ice-cream now! Mom, bring me a big bowl of chocolate ice-cream, will ya? Oh wait. You have to entertain guests, don't you? Fine, I'll get it myself! *grumbles* Ice-cream is good, ice-cream is my friend...

We have guests today, and that means that I get to spend time with my precious AIVAS-II without interruptions from my parents, all while eating yummy food made by my mommy ^_~ Good stuff.
Allrighty, now let's get down to business. I have to find a good pic to refer to while drawing my art picture. Hm. Listen to this, mangs. My art teacher is making us draw 10 thumbnail sketches, make 3 revisions of 1, make a final "work of art", and then use that to make a reduction print. What's the point of a final drawing when we're gonna be doing a reduction print anyway? *shakes head* I'll never understand teachers.
Hehehe, I was reading Shakespeare's biography last night, and all of a sudden it hit me! A killer idea for a manga! *dances around wildly* Shakespeare, I love you!
Gosh, I have to write a history essay and a WiTT essay for Wednesday. Why do I have to have two writing finals in one day? Geez!

Aiieeee! It's already the 12th! And it seems like New Year's was just several days ago...Time flies by so fast...SO FAST!!!! *wails*
Okay. Ahem. The math test I was spazzing about? Well, I got a 99 on it. That's a relief. I now need to get 94 on the final to get an A for the semester. I think I can manage that if I study really really hard. However...those sleazeballs in my class (Srikanth and Co.) BET on mah score! Yes, they bet on it. *screams* For money, too! No one actually guessed right, but the person with the closest guess got the money. Hm! It all started Thursday morning in the LMC. Sunmi, Mawar, and I were sitting separately from those people, and I heard them say my name. Now, given that Srikanth mispronounced it earlier to make me mad, I assumed that they were making fun of it or something. Sunmi said that they are so mean and shouldn't be doing that, and that was the end. Fast forward to math class. All of us got our tests back, found out each others' scores, and Danielle gave me a little index card with five names and five test scores on it. I was like O_o;;;;;; "What is this?" Those obviously weren't the actual test results, so I thought they were the quarter averages or something. *Shrugs* The next thing I knew, Gaudenis yanked the card out of my hands, and he and Srikanth destroyed it (destroying the evidence, are we now?). I was even more puzzled. Then they started discussing it, trying to hide it from me...and I went ~_@;;; "Tell me NOW!"...and Srikanth told me that they were "making money off of me...or losing money." And Danielle specified that they were betting on my test score. Lovely. And then I connected the LMC events in the morning to this. Argh! Those total sleazeballs!
Yesterday Janet found out that Danielle's birthday is on Prom day, and she wants to set Danielle up with Srikanth. Wai! That's so cuuuuute! Danielle and Srikanth would make such a good couple...in my unprofessional opinion, of course. I'm gonna try to help Janet execute her grand 5 month plan ^_~ You! *pokes nearby person* You help, too!
