even though its a half a day early, but whatever!!
REPRESENT!
HOPKINS THE PUMPKIN!!
I was going to enter this to the pumpkin carving contest but the stupid stage production lady locked the auditorium door even though we told her we would be back after we go get pizza (it was 20 boxes of large pizzas btw) but yea I could've won a homecoming ticket and I would be happy to go :[ but NOOO! yea this will be the last time i'll be complaining about this, but I don't regretting carving my pumpkin :D
Shits been going on and I just have to to sit and type up a blog.I don't even have to time to do it now, but since my fellow bloggers want something to read other then the regulars and jackie's threatening us from moving from blogger to tumblr, I think it is fair that this post I'm about to make should change her mind. :)
Anyways college apps are about to start and I think I'm a little behind because one month, to me isn't enough. DeBour said I could I apply for 4 UC's and 4 CSU's with fee waivers on both occasions. Still no certain on which UC's to apply to, other then SD and LA, so any suggestions would help, I'm ranked #47 btw and have a 3.667 unweighted and a 3.8_ weighted. woo top 11%!
I am going to need all you alumnus to help me with my personal statement so that I can get into SD at least because I wanna join all you guys there. Wouldn't it be funny if UCSD will become an extension of Verdugo because everyone from VHHS is accepted there? haha we would get at least one person we know in every class!
Tennis: Girls are kicking ass. 9-0 undefeated league champs going to play off and individuals?
not going to homecoming unless I win this pumpkin carving shit this friday for link crew just because. I wont cheap out on the carving quality I'm going to go all out with my imagination. wish me luck
people has been teasing Sidney these pass couple of weeks so I'm guessing w.e has spilled out and wow does it get annoying... today was one of the most annoying-est day every, I mean it just pricks me every time they tease her... I mean why poke a sleeping passive bear with a stick, its cute when its sleeping but when it wakes up from that one last poke, it will be ugly... I think I need to talk to her about that because it's 1)she doesn't like it or 2) theres something behind all of that. anyways yea... I wanted to share that with the blogging community, its not like theres a lot of people that are going to be looking at this except from the predictions: ceejay, janice, jackie, Bi, Kevin Canlas, sidney and ben maybe liz but I doubt that.
progess report card: B-A-C-A (baka meaning stupid; idiot) coincidence? I think not!! but fuck mendelsohn I'll prove that muthufucker wrong that Athletes can be scholars as well!
Kemple's... I need tutoring, my test scores has been a negative slop of 90-67-65 (a,c,d) and so far, ceejay has been of somewhat help as well as richard lee, and suk. I'm going to need Parth's help that genius indian that wants to get into an aerospace engineering at UCLA...crazy muthufucker.
well its about 9:00pm so I'll stop here and blog when all of this chaos is done, probably around December :P
Yea, I'll tell you the ending first. Verdugo Hills Highschool tennis team is now 09'-10' league champs! Congrats girls!!
Now on to the details: I skipped by 4th, got it covered by talking to my teacher, he's such a nice man, and skipped the last 45mins of 3rd period because we had a sub anyways and I finished my work and as of now finished typing it up, so I'm done for today. The girls went to play van nuys @ van nuys. Those muthufuckers stacked the team like as if it's a freaking merry-go-round. singles 1 @ double 3, enough said... anyways we crushed them 4-3 with a superior effort by doubles Josie and Sandy(8-6, close called) with sandy changing 3 raquets, and Carol for beat a trainered singles (doubles)3 (8-2). Samantha and Kelly did a no contest (8-1(or 2); 8-0).
Now for the "honorees": Amy and Ellen had to play with their singles one and another van nuys player and lost 8-3 which wasn't a surprise but it was because they just got psyched out. Doubles Anne and Liz lost (7-8 tiebreaker:7-#) probably another surprise of psych outs but crazy catch up from 2-7 -> 6-7 so good job there. Sidney lost as well, I dont know about this one, I just felt she wasn't trying 3-8. sorry sidney but nice try. The girl she was playing adapted to sidney's style of playing.
on to school:
1) nothing special. homework. tired as fuck!
2) Ceejay, Q, Ryan, and I are now on jury duty and we can get the highest is 79%(C+) F(our)L. Richard Lee got the worst possible score of the 2 classes combined
3)Mendelsohn wasn't here so played ditchy last 45min
So today, I woke up at around 9-ish which gave me a good 9 hours of sleep. I had one final lesson for my classical guitar and I had to wait 2 weeks before I can go back for the 3 session. I'm still kinda shaky on my right hand technique according to my teacher because he says the right hand will be working more later on. So from 12:30 to 2:00pm I worked on my technique and watched my classmates play.
After guitar was over, Carol called my phone and my phone was with my dad since he's the one who needed to call my sis if she'll be going to tennis, so my dad said he answered and freaked out Carol lol. So I decided, "why not" and go to tennis as well, it turned out to be a nice day: the weather was alright, in the mid 80's, breeze and afternoon. After a while when Anne and William came, Q and them decided to play doubles and they stuck me with Sidney vu, coincidence? I think not. Us vs Liz n' Anne, won 6-2. Again Us vs Q and Emily, we won 7-5 (Emily got pretty good at net, still needs fine tuning, but she'll be kicking some ass her senior year.). William and Mabel vs Carol and Ellen, I dont know who won so lol yea. I went to go to the donut shop to get an Arizona Mucho Mango and it was sooo worth it.
Lauren, Ethan, and Justin... man they can be so active. Ethan almost got killed a couple of times, and He ran over Carol and Q a couple of times. He also wacked me with a racket..shit hurted, he went full out swung it. Justin was being quiet Justin and when I served and got a ball stuck on top of the fence, he tried to get it but failed >_<" Lauren was crazy good at tennis, every shot she hit went over, and the raquet was as big as her body lol. She can also play handball like a wizard... that little girl has so much potential.
Today was very enjoyable..til' I got home. I walked in the house and wanted to go shower, but my sis wanted to go wash her hair so I let her go first... then I wanted to play a game to past the time, but then my dad yelled at me for playing the game and not folding the clothes, so he yells and goes to his bootleg DVD drama shit... what an example he shows me... I like how he yells and the tallest/biggest, and more educated person of the family... he sure knows how to pick a fight... me being a little passive didn't do shit and just continued gaming.
So I haven't blogged for a while, but I think i'll take this time to blog a little.
Currently I'm getting a 71.6% in mendelsohn because he's an asshole at due dates and saying "this is a college class, when I say its due, its due" even when half the class knows he knows he's bad at that and every time he says to turn something in, its very unclear and chaotic. Other then that I think i'll be getting B's in my progress report cards, and an "A" in comp science. I love that class because: no paper. Gov't has been going on tangents and there are way too many things to memorize and store in my head so don't know how to manage that except read, memorize, read, memorize. Calculus has been alright. I get the concepts and all that, I just need to step it up in the tests, because I want to be one of the top 40 kids and we have about 10 more then the norm, so preparing myself to kick those other 10 people's asses. So far... its been a steep hill for me...
On to music, I found about this one underground artisst and a crazy producer, so combined they create some awesome, meaningful jazz/hip-hop/rap combination. I'm talking about "Nujabes" I love his type of music, so mellow with a body moving sensation to every piece of song he creates. Just listen :)
Tennis has been going well, I got Ben into tennis and he loves it. Just plain fun. So yeah, I've finished 1 of 2 rackets of confusion thanks to my cousin.
College... I don't even want to start but if anyone is willing to help me on m personal statement, gimme a IM, thanks.
FUCKEN SUCKED NUTS! took it with a runny nose, a cold, in a refrigerator like room, and cholos in a mediocre room with a calculus standard that still said we're still studying limits...
yea... thanks people for the cold and LAUSD for the low quality test environment... I had a shitty day.
Eating away at my croissant crust ham and cheese hot pocket, that is a little warm with oozing cheddar cheese, I realize I should blog about my senior year so far since we probably know the senior won't be blogging for a while once college apps, personal statements, FAFSA, and all those goodies come flying at use like daggers to a spinning bull's eye board.
Well my senior year started slow and not as exciting as I expected it to be. I got 4 AP classes(AP> calc/ gov't/ eng/comp sci) that I have to pass because those are the classes I need to graduate... stupid magnet SLC... stupid dad making me go... I have to take my 4th which I was , at first, lazy to accept. I wanted to play and practice tennis in my 4th and even manage for the girls tennis team since Dick makes me help the girls practice their shots anyways after 4th. So far so good, I think I'm getting either hi-B's or low to middle A's in my classes, because I got an "A" in kemple's first test and did all his starters and homework which are a breeze, and I think I got a "B" in Reinhart because I did REALLY bad in his chapter quizzes, which ceejay and I figured out what to memorize, and I got the extra-credit from the volleyball game to help keep that "B". I probably have a "B" as well in Mendelsohn because I do his work, but I participate occasionally in his class discussion which is actually above average because most of the people there shut up which the white bitches talk. Finally, I'm getting an "A" in Comp Sci, because I checked my grade and I have a 91.1% lol.
I'm going to really need help applying to scholarships and all the other stuff. I know you guys think I'm over thinking all of this, but this is just to remind me that I must kick ass til' the end of my senior year. I'll just have fun in college.
Facebook has been a drag... it keeps be procrastinating through my work and it keeps me glued to the monitor screen instead to using this fine too of networking to looks for tips and trick for the SAT's and good scholarships to apply to.
Tennis has been going great, the girls beat Van Nuys and No Ho this past week, but the girls still need a little practice :P Sandy's been trying on her topspin which, if mastered, she would become a crazy player next year. Josie's been kicking ass left and right, I don't know whether her skills comes naturally, a Ho given gift, or it's from Carol/Jackie's tennis skills rubbing off on her. I taught her how to volley and she will become one crazy bitch on the court next year, no doubt. Those were some of the props, there's more but I'm just too lazy to type about. Most of the girls are learning top spins and how to approach net which will be the key to their success in the play offs.
Homecoming, I will not be attending is seems like for the time being, since everyone's only reason is "It's your senior year!" what difference does that make? Homecoming this year will be on the Verdugo Hill's track field grass inside a tent. If the football team would win a few, that piece of land would be worth putting a dance floor on, but it isn't.
I will be going to grad night, hopefully with a date because Disneyland isn't the most exiting place to go with a bunch of guy friends or going on a ride by yourself. lol, I just think it's weird.
