Good Morning 6 A.M.

Today was the first day back at school from Christmas Break and it was not a satisfactory one. Six o' clock roles around and my dad wakes me up with the usual, turning on the radio. Yes, for those that don't know, I am a high school senior and my parents still wake me up. I'm very appreciative, because otherwise I don't know if I would ever make it to school on time.

I got up and did the usual:
1. Take a shower
2. Get dressed
3. Eat breakfast...the most important meal of the day!
4. Pack my bag and think about the day ahead
5. Take a breath
6. Say bye to my parents and it's off to school

This morning I sadly had to return to my routine and go to school. arriving at seven to sit in the band hall and talk with some friends.


First period commences and it's off to English Literature with Mr. Simpson, who gives us a timed writing in which I haven't done since May of last year. That was a joke, luckily he is letting us turn it in on Wednesday typed. Also, with it there was a nice short story to read, with a quiz tomorrow.

Second period arrives and I head off to band. I play the French Horn and am in the Symphonic Band under the direction of Mr. Ruangtip. We did our normal agenda, working on our U.I.L. music program.

The bell rings and I walk with some people to animation class. I spend almost the entire period drawing a skeleton, well actually I should get real with myself. I traced it off a template given by Mr. Bushland. Eventually we are going to make it move around and dance to either "Thriller" or "Can't Touch This."

The day is going swell I suppose, only a timed writing to complete thus far.

Fourth period bell rings and I head off to Biology A.P. with Mrs. Shupe, who by the way gave us six chapters to read with worksheets over break. The class settled in and then we look at the agenda for the week. Tomorrow two labs are due plus yet another chapter of biology. I was like well this is a great way to end winter/begin spring term.

Finally we reach fifth period where all the biology people head off to statistics and calculus. Fortunately I opted out for calculus this year and chose statistics because I had heard it was a lot easier and her passing rate is pretty high on the A.P. exam. The class walked in and began to say hello; people compared the high in demand
iphones to the voyagers and Mrs. Norwood tried to get class started as normal. We get told that we have about ten problems for homework (which are normally a,b,c,d), there is a quiz tomorrow, and on top of that the class took a poll and nobody knows what they are doing in the class. I've decided that Stats Class needs its own post to completely gain the true life of the class, but that's at another time.

After what seemed like ages, the bell rang and I headed home, had a snack, and began my mound of homework. I believe I started at three and didn't finish until seven. Of course allowing time for breaks and such, I still think that four hours worth of homework on the first day back is ridiculous.

Anywho, I'm just thankful that I finished and can have some free time.
