Back to School

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.
Postby mschulz5 on January 2nd, 2006, 1:02 pm
Does anybody else have to go back to school tomorrow? Our school had an extremely short holiday break, only 8 total school days were missed. I'm pretty pissed about this.

Ha, at least I didn't have to go back today, like my little brother.

I've been taking the math (at school) and reading (at home) practice ACT tests, so far I've been consistent with 30s on both. My GPA is a 3.9 and is going to go down after this semester, so I've got to score well on the ACT. I'm pretty confident that I will, though. My top choice for schools is U of I (at Urbana-Champaign) and the average ACT score there is 25-31 so the ACT should cover for my so-so GPA. I'm planning on majoring in engineering-mechanical.

oh god, it sucked this morning. I'm used to my sleeping in until ten on tuesdays and i had to get up at 7 this morning. I have an english teacher with a heavy lisp and she said these words to us to maybe startle us or something:

" Let me tell you this, I swear, I'm tatooed, I'm a lesbian, I'm a democrat, i hate George Bush, I hate the Iraq war, and I don't care what you think of me."

So that kinda made us all freak a bit. Then when i drove back for my second class, the parking lot was a mob scene, and i had to park in the furthest lot from my class, which was on the opposite side of campus. I was 15 minutes late to that class, and my teacher is an old man named Mr. Marriot, and he has memory loss...

I have more classes tomorrow, and we'll see how that goes. This is going to be a long semester....
