George Gray

I have studied many times
The marble which was chiseled for me --
A boat with a furled sail at rest in a harbor.
In truth it pictures not my destination
But my life.
For love was offered me and I shrank from its disillusionment;
Sorrow knocked at my door, but I was afraid;
Ambition called to me, but I dreaded the chances.
Yet all the while I hungered for meaning in my life.
And now I know that we must lift the sail
And catch the winds of destiny
Wherever they drive the boat.
To put meaning in one's life may end in madness,
But life without meaning is the torture
Of restlessness and vague desire --
It is a boat longing for the sea and yet afraid.
-Edgar Lee Masters

Stressful Week Over!

Finally, the end of the marking period was today. It has been a hectic week from Pre-SATs to exams. I got a 75 on my spanish exam, so sad, but most of our class did bad since it was so unexpected. Surprisingly I'm doing good in global compared to last year when I was failing so badly. Honors Tri is the hardest class I have. I'm so use to studying from the textbook and simply passing since that I what I did last year, but NOOOO her tests are so hard and the textbook doesn't go so deeply into the problems. I'm hoping that I pass this class even if its with a 65. Next is Sophomore Technology which is confusing at times. But over time I seem to understand it, since he gave us extra time for the exam today I think I fixed up some errors I made, since totally blanked out during the test especially when he called 10 mins. I took my Chemstry test today and it wasn't that bad. Gym I passed or at least I think so. Spanish I'm sorta passing. English is hard as well! I never thought I'll say it but I think for the first time in 4 years I won't be getting that 91+ average I usually get.

2 more tests left

I think I failed all the tests I took today, other than my gym test. Sighs, math test was so much harder than I expected and I got a 65 on my previous test so I really wanted to do so well but that doesn't seem like its the case. I just hope that I get at least a 65 on it. Then I had a technology test, which wasn't exactly hard but I ran out of time so I ended up rushing thru some questions. Next I had a gym test which I passed thankfully. Finally I had an english test and once again I ran out of time forcing me to rush thru about 5 questions. The only good part about it was that it had 50 questions. Although I think that was the reason I ran out of time. Sighs, two more tests tomorrow =______="

I find it so weird when...

1-People pronounce my name wrong. I've never really had my name pronounced wrong until I got into YEA and the president says Joan or Jodie instead of Joann.
2-People who I think didn't know my name, knows my name. There is this guy in my global class who was like Hi Joann when I was going down the stairs I really didn't know what he knows my name. I don't participate in class so I find it so weird LMFAO. Although I usually tend to know people's names even if they don't really participate in class.

So stressed, tomorrow is the Pre-SATs and I'm suppose to be studying but my failure of the math section when I was taking a practice test in my book brought all my hopes down. Sighs...I hope to do well tomorrow and I think I have a spanish test tomorrow too.

Happy Birthday Daddy&Connie

Happy Birthday Daddy, who won't ever see this.

Connie! The person who got me into blogging and the one who helps me code all my layouts. The person who tells me over and over to fix my designs because they are too plain. The friend who critiques my graphics, not to mention tells me over and over to use different fonts. The person who got me into Desire Climax(which I stopped reading) and many other mangas. I want to wish you
Happy 15th Birthday :]
