Hectic.
Chaos.
Pandemonium.
FUN!
Yup, that's my life. Anyways, between my last post and now, I officially turned thirteen! W00t! We didn't do anything though, as always. My friends got me an iPod nano. I was all like, OMG. You're kidding. But yeah, my friends are awesome. Then we had like two projects due, one of which is worth over 100 points (the Mirrors Book, I turned it in early though, go extra credit! It saves my grade ;D), so that kind of sucked. Then today, I wrote up a petition for yearbooks.
So the thing is, usually 8th graders get their yearbooks a day earlier than the 6th and 7th graders, but this year we have to get then on the same day. So that kind of annoyed most of the IHMS 8th graders in geometry, so we thought we should do something about it, and we figured a petition would work. And since I can write formally (go me! XD) I typed up the petition, which has sentences like "We, the 8th graders of Iron Horse Middle School, hereby present this petition that we should be granted the right to receive our yearbooks a day earlier than the remainder of the student body," and "We do not believe that we should be denied the privilege which had been granted to all of the students before us." I was so proud of it. XD Then Pink Bunny and Courtney (whom I shall fondly refer to as "Mute Girl" from now on), and I ran around getting signatures from 8th graders (and a few 7th, since it support our case. The 7th graders aren't benefiting, but they still support it, so...)and we got a grand total of 200. It was awesome. But the Mrs. Adragna, since she's in charge of Yearbook (the class), got kind of mad and declared that anyone who signed the petition would get their yearbooks LATE. So then one person backed out, so technically we only had 199 signatures. Mrs. Adragna's not allowed to do that though, since we're merely expressing our opinions in a formal, educated way.
Then we presented it to Mrs. Cooper, our principle, and she said it was a good idea and she'd talk to the other administrators about it. I don't know if she was serious or not though.
We had a CJSF meeting after school too, which wasn't too exciting, but then we had a Math Olympiad reunion! We got FOOD! Mrs. Cooper was funny, she was like, "We have Girl Scout cookies, apple juice, and... some healthy Chewy things..." You know those Chewy bar things? Well, if you don't they're basically granola with stuff, like raisins, chocolate chips, etc. depending on what you buy. Anyways, the oatmeal raisin Chewy bars are soooo good!
Then, I have a Presidential Breakfast thing tomorrow, where we get special awards for getting straight A's and stuff, so I GET TO SKIP MATH! To eat. XD But it's all good. Then there's only like 5 more days of school left (not including weekends obviously), since the 11th is our Promotion Ceremony, and on the 12th the 8th graders are going to Great America. So there's a ton of stuff to look forward to these last few days.
But then again, I have a French final tomorrow and the day after, a history final on Thursday, and a math final on Monday. So those kind of cancel out some excitement. I think I'm fine on French (I'm pretty sure I'll at least get a B, which would still kind of suck, but I pass!), and math I should do okay, but I have to review. History, on the other hand, I am so going to fail. Mrs. Goodhue's tests are soooo hard! She calls a 100 question assessment a quiz, and her tests are like 150 questions. I bet her exam is either going to be HECKA hard, or there will be like 500 questions on there... :( Oh well. Anyways, welcome to my awesome life (and it's also an awesome song, "Welcome to My Life," that is) and if you don't mind, please step out of my life now, because I have to go study. (Yeah, I know, so Asian. XD)
