    Washout!!!!!

    This area is supposed to get a deluge of rain this weekend,thanks to Tropical Storm Hannah.Thanks,Hannah,for canceling the high school football game I was supposed to go see tonight!!

    Other than that,not much else to talk about other than school.

    Math was easy.Aced a pop-quiz that wasn't very pop-like since it was on the board yesterday but got canceled because of the class meeting and everybody knew it was coming today for sure.

    English gave me project #2 of this 4-day-old school year.All I have to do is paste a bunch of stuff related to my heritage on a peice of computer paper.Which should be easy,as I have an ancestor from basically every European country.

    After that,nothing blog-worthy happened.So,I won't even try to make stuff up.

    Locusts,Football,School,And An Epic Flop.

    Last night was time to shop for school supplies.Everyone's favorite part of the beginning of school,right?Here's just a quick summary of the experience:Imagine a farm just after it's been devoured by a swarm of locusts,and a few stragglers are still hanging around eating the last bits of edible material.That would be last night.

    Well,it wasn't that bad,since we did find everything but the dividers I needed.But it took wayyy too long.

    School today was decidedly boring,since the novelty of new classes has just about worn off.Math was simple:we handed in homework,then went off to the auditorium for the sophmore class meeting.That's it.No math involved.

    Then World Geography gave me the first product of the new school year,and only 3 days in,too!!It's not that bad,though,the project is small and easy.All we have to do is make up a fictional continent with a required number of features.I'm not even sure why it's classified as a project.Of course,the continent's shape will be dependent on whether I'm feeling mature or not.If I am,it will be the usual amorphous blob.If not,it will be shaped like a penis.

    OK,I was kidding on that last part.

    Oh,and by the way:Are you ready for some FOOTBALL!!!???:P

    Yes,football starts again tonight!!!Can't wait!!

    And now the flop so big you could practically hear it.I'm talking about Spore,of course.A lot of people,myself included,had enourmous expectations for this game.10's,GOTY's,you get the idea.Instead,it gets a lowly 8.0 on Gamespot compared to our expectations.It's dissapointing,sure,but that won't stop me from buying it.

    That's all for today,so bye!!

    A Little Trigger Happy,Aren't We??

    Soon after posting yesterday's blog,the mods struck.The infraction?

    Reason for moderation: Derogatory use of the term 'retardation'
    Action Taken: Delete Msg - Your suspension will be rescinded in 1 day(s).

    For quoting Yahtzee,I got a one day suspension.Sure,I probably deserved to have the message deleted,but why a suspension?It might have been just for 1 day,but a suspension's a suspension.It seems to me that the mods go for that shiny "suspend" button too much.Oh well,at least I wasn't banned....

    Speaking of Yahtzee,I suggest you watch one of his reviews if you haven't already:

    Oh yeah,and there's also school.

    Once again,the only period I have every day is 1st period,and that's math.In which nothing interesting happened.So let's move on to English instead.

    .........

    Oh,wait,nothing interesting happened in English,either.On to Spanish!!!

    Not surprisingly,I'm going to have some trouble with this one.Mostly because of the way I was trying memorize the words and phrases.It went something like this:repeat something until you're sure you have it down,then continue down the list until you come back to the first item,only to find you've already forgotten it.Either that,or you can't quite put your finger on it.I guess I'll just have to use my tried-and-true method of memorizing,which is repeat until so bored you can't possibly forget.Oh yeah,and most of the people in the ****are freshmen,which makes me feel senior.

    Next is Pre AP Biology,which also wasn't interesting at all,except for being filled with even more freshmen.And of course,being a ****with "AP" in the name,it is sure to become a bane of my school existence.

    That's really all for today,except we have to go shopping for supplies tonight.Yippee.
