untitled #3

I have been barely posting on this blog and I feel kind of bad so I think within the next few days I will do one big huge post of a bunch of shit I was planning on posting but never exactly got around to so yay. Meanwhile, listen to some '67' by MellowHype.

So it was my birthday two days ago and my friends surprised me with cake and yeah. I'm old now.

My outfit from yesterday. I went to school and then went to Metrotown afterwards to exchange my gift for my friend's birthday party which I just came back from. And now I'm tired and I will go to bed. Bye.

P.S. What is that thing on my nose omg it's not a booger or anything I swear!

Block E- Free Block
I had homeroom in the morning first, so I had to come to school even though first block I had free block. So my friend, who also had free block, and I sat in the cafeteria and just talked for an hour.

Block F- Chemistry
My teacher was funny and kind of weird. He told us a lot of stories about where he used to work (in a lab) and past experiments he had done, which was working with glass frogs or something like that. Then he asked for a volunteer and this guy volunteered and he did this thing where he attached 2 things that would send a bit of electricity through the guy's hand and his fingers were twitching and stuff. But we didn't have to do any work that class so it was good.

Block G- French
This class really reminded me how much I hate French class and how much I forgot over the summer. We had a substitute though because apparently our teacher sprained her ankle and needed to rest or something like that. But we did a review booklet and stuff and we got a seating plan. I sit next to this girl who's really quiet and I don't really even know her. But yeah.

Block H- English
My teacher is this really funny guy and he talks a lot but it's not boring at all. We didn't do much except write a sample of our writing for him and basically the topic was to write about whatever we wanted. He said that our first sample is like his first impression of us and of our writing. I think other people wrote random things like "Hi, I'm blah blah blah and I like blah blah blah." Like, lame stuff about themselves. I wrote about the feeling of regret. And I referenced 'Teen Idle' by Marina and the Diamonds which I hope isn't too weird. But basically I wrote about the feeling of emptiness and wasted years of youth and how I couldn't stop thinking about it through the summer. I had a feeling that English will probably be my favourite academic course this year.

So today was the first day of classes! So I think I will go through all of them and share my thoughts that no one cares about.

Block A- Biology

I hate biology. Well, it's interesting, but I hate memorizing everything. I already took Biology 12 last year but I'm retaking it because I totally slacked off and I want to use this course mark for university admission and so I'm retaking it. I don't want to though, because it's such a pain rememorizing everything, but yeah. I don't remember, like, anything anymore. And what sucks is that this one pen that I like to use for my Bio notes (this skinny blue pen that writes really skinny ink out) stopped being made and I only have one more left that will clearly not last me through the year so now I'm sad. My textbook is huge and heavy and also it smells like shit. Well, not shit. It smells like the nasty smell of dissection, which makes me want to gag and not even touch the textbook. Ugh. My teacher seems really nice though. She's so so so overenthusiastic though and it's kind of weird.

Block B- Calculus

My teacher is on maternity leave and so I have a substitute who is this Indian woman but she's so nice, and I think I'm really going to like her as a teacher. She decided that since it's the first class, we weren't going to do any work (which is good) but she made us do all this stuff to introduce ourselves to the class and to her (which was bad). I mean, I hate being social and talking about myself because honestly what is there to say about me. I'm boring and hate most people and I'm broke from shopping. But she made us fill out a form about ourselves and she asked if anyone's birthday is in this month so I raised my hand and told her (September 13) and she said that that's her birthday too and that she's definitely bringing donuts. Haha. Then we had to go through each person and each person would say their name and something about themselves. I had nothing to say so I said I like shopping. A lot.

Block C- P.E.

I had P.E. and my teacher is my last year's volleyball coach. And despite the fact that NO ONE (except for, like, one person but besides her) had their P.E. strip, we had to play dodge ball. Ugh I mean I don't even like playing dodge ball in my P.E. strip so it was even worse playing it in my regular clothes. In fact, I hate dodge ball in general, because I can't throw for shit. Like, I prefer kicking. I can't throw hard but I can kick hard. That's why four-corner soccer is my favourite activity in P.E. class. That's why I've kicked balls in girls' faces. BY ACCIDENT, OF COURSE.

Block D- Pre-Calculus

I have the same teacher as last year which I'm fine with because he's really nice and he's not that tough but his tests are just really long. But I'm glad I'm in his class because I got to bug him about him giving me 85% for third term, which is like, 1% away from an A. DSFSkjfsfjld that would've been my first A in math since, well, grade 8 or 9! But like, last year my friend and I were saying stuff to him about how we were going to cry ourselves to sleep every night if he didn't give us some sort of mark that I forgot what it was, and he felt really bad. So for this form we filled out about ourselves, one of the questions asked what we got last year in math, and I wrote that because he gave me 85% I cried myself to sleep every night in the summer. And then he went around talking to people more about the questionnaire and we had a nice conversation about me crying myself to sleep. And then he was like "But seriously, did you actually cry?!" and I was like "No, I just wanted to make you feel bad." Haha but he's honestly a really nice guy (but he's like 40something and single so that's kind of sad).

Ohohohoh and I talked to my P.E. teacher (who coached me in volleyball last year) and asked her if she's coaching the senior team again this year and she said no! She was the one who sucked the fun out of volleyball for me so now I think I will try out for the team. Hahah. I have no idea when the tryouts are though but I'm a bit nervous because I hadn't done volleyball in like a year and also in senior level, like, everyone's in club volleyball and I don't do club so I feel like I suck more than all of them. In fact, I'm pretty sure I do suck more than all of them but oh well. I just hope if I get into the team, I can balance volleyball and school/homework/studying because volleyball is VERY time-consuming and tiring.

Well, I hope tomorrow goes well.

first day of school wah

h&m shirt and parka, american apparel shorts, vintage necklace, thrifted bag, nine west boots

Today was the first day of school! I was kind of sad to go back to school, because I miss my summer break already! My summer break seemed so short, considering I had summer school for 6 weeks, but next summer I'll be graduated from high school and I won't have summer school for the first time in about 4 or 5 years! And I'll be free! But I need a job ugh. I really want some $$ and I want to earn some myself instead of always begging my parents for some, but I just really don't want to work. But I gotta suck it up, I guess.

Well, school's starting. It's my senior year. I'm going to have to work my ass off and hopefully get into UBC. Wish me luck.

the end is where we start from

I went shopping yesterday at Metrotown to buy my friend's birthday present.

There were so many people, but that was because it was Labour Day. I bought a black sheer shirt with a gold chain pattern on it from Forever 21 for myself! I'll post that later because as always, I'm a lazy ass. Yay. I also got my nails done! I got a french manicure:

To be honest, this was my first time getting my nails professionally done and I gotta say it was a pretty cool experience. I think I'm going to get my nails done more often now, that is, once I get more money, because I'm so broke right now. Haha.

we fell in love in the key of c

Okay I really fell behind on blogging sigh.

So on Sunday we drove down to Seattle for a day. Here was my outfit:

h&m shirt and parka, tna leggings, vintage necklace, thrifted bag, nine west boots

I bought a white Adidas Originals t-shirt, a Nike sports bra and a BCBG Max Azria dress for Artona (grad pics)! I'll post them later because I'm too lazy to take pictures of them at the moment but yay.

I also did my nails the day before:

Don't mind all the makeup and stuff in the background but I painted it with OPI's Alpine Snow and I believe I did 3 coats.

Hm I don't really have much else to say so here is a picture of me in the car during the trip yay:
