Long Overdue Hello

Oh, it's been so long since I posted, and I really do promise that this time I'll REALLY be better at posting. I've been so swamped with homeowrk and everything. Man.

Anyways, Last Monday (Aug. 23) was my first day of school at John A. Ferguson Sr. High. Man, is that school overcrowded! There's about 4,300 students that go to my school, and for as large as it is, you still get caught up in awful traffic.
Here's my school, incase you want to see it:

Pretty right? Well there's TWO more buildings that you can't see, and all the buildings are three stories tall. It's really big, and lunch time, it's a massive wave of kids. At least Pearland was smart enough to have three lunches and two cafeterias. Here, there's one or two small (and I mean small) cafeterias and some places outside you can eat, but there's 2,000 students trying to eat lunch at the same time!

Moving on, I have eight periods, but we have block scheduling, so I only have four periods a day for ninety minutes each. There's A day and B day as well, which helps keep what classes you have in order.
A Day: Periods 1,3,5, and 7
B Day: Periods 2,4,6 and 8
Now you kind of understand? I hope so.

I like the school itself, and all my teachers are really nice and funny, but I still don't have anyone that I would call my friend. Sure, there are my friends I had in summer camp, but I hardly see/speak to them. This is where I miss Pearland the most: I would NEVER have lunch alone. I always had a friend to eat with when I needed one. I always had a friend with me, period. The only time I was friendless was when I was walking to class, but I don't mind walking to class alone. I just wish I had someone to talk to and hang out with.
Lauren, Courtney, you both need to transfer and keep me company.
But there's also Cody, Tory, Junior, Alec, Taylor, Bri, Tejas, Andrea, and everyone else (that has touched my life that I can't name here because I'm pressed for time) that need to come here too. Oh, I have an idea! Us Oilers should overrun the Falcons! Muahahahahahaha, wouldn't that be fun?

I have discovered something new as well, but it's not really "new," but new to me.
Paulo Genitiano.
Paulo has always been there for me, and I love him. He makes me smile :D
I didn't think anyone could make me all warm and fuzzy after everyting that happened with Josh, but Paulo pulled it off. Pulled it off well, too. He's the best.

There's also Jon-Michael. What a sweet guy. I almost feel bad he loves me, to be honest. I do love him, but I don't think he loves me the same. He loves me more, and I know it. Poor kid.

Hot Topic of the day: AP Classes
Ok, right off the bat I'll tell you, if you take AP classes
a.) You are the equivalent of a college freshman
b.) Your life isn't over
c.) It's not so totally hard if you know how to study
and
d.) It's WAY better than regular class.
If you considered taking AP classes and you didn't, I think you just screwed yourself. How can you not take an AP class because you're lazy? This is a great chance to prove that you are college material in high school. Do you think that colleges are going to pick your 4.0 with all regular classes over another one's 3.8 with mostly AP classes? No, of course not! You're insane if you think you can get into a school like Harvard with a grade like that.
Also, these classes basically prepare you for college. By the time you set up your dorm all pretty and bought all your used books, the studying wouldn't be such a hassle.
Procrastinators beware: You can't pass a test in an AP class when you studied for it the night before. Trust me, Mr. Layne's class was constant failure on my part because I didn't allow myself to read the book over the week, but rather, the night before. I'm surprised I passed.

Movie Review!

Toy Story 3
Rating: 3 out of 3 stars
This HAS to be the best Toy Story out of all three.
This tells the story about Woody and the gang (obviously) and how Andy is going away to college. The toys accidently get donated to a day care instead of being put in the attic and when they realised that the day care wasn't heaven, they try to escape.

The Last Airbender
Rating: 4 out of 11 stars
I'm not going to bore you with all the details, because if you were my friend, you watched at least the first season of this TV show, and that's basically all the movie is.
What I didn't like is how they got the races wrong. Katara was dark skinned and in the movie she was fair skinned, just like how Zuko was fair skinned and in the show and dark in the movie. Instead of airbending, they were racebending!

I wish I had more to say, but I'm kind of in the middle of cleaning my room up some. It's a total mess!!! Although I can live with the mess, but pater can't. He likes a clean house, and a clean room.
