...
I dont know why but sneaking on seems 80x harder than what it use to...
I reallly reallly reallly hate high school this year... My teachers suck =.=
My english 2 teacher gave us a poem yesterday and wanted us to read it ("The Eagle" and its only like 6 lines) and then today he popped out of nowhere with a quiz about it. I already knew what all the words meant so I didnt think Id do bad, especially knowing no one had known about it but when we got the tests there were 7 problems...
:
"Define these words:
crag: (final fantasy lied to me on this one D: (( there are castle rock thingys lieing around that you gotta go to sometimes and i really had no idea what it was other than what id seen in the game so i said a rock/stone thing resembling a castle xD)
wrinkled:
azure: (I would have shot myself if I had gotten this wrong <_<)
and like 3 other words


2 what was the rhyme scheme... i havent done this in forever so i had no clue -.-

3 meter?.... again... havent done it in forver... i guessed and was close but i guess im sylable happy because i put 11 and it was really 7/8 ( he accepted both )

4 i forgot how he worded this one but i got it right so it doesnt matter :P

5 forgot this one too but i got it wrong

6 WHERE IS THE WRITER'S NATIONALITY? this one pissed me off because if he hadnt told us yesterday this would be really messed up and there were some people who were absent yesterday. HOW IS THIS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THE POEM? this question pissed me off because literally no one knew it -.-
I dont see how knowing where the writer lived has anything to do with the actual poem... especially when its about an eagle...

7 word for word (just not in caps) because this one was really messed up: CLEARLY THE WRITER IS IMPRESSED BY THE EAGLE. WHAT DO YOU THINK HE IS IMPRESSED BY?
I almost wanted to stab him... this was a cheap shot because he did sound impressed at all... and.. impressed by a creature he created for his poem?


The Eagle
He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ringed with the azure world, he stands.

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
by Lord Alfred Tennyson

and thats literally all he gave us prior to it...
*sighs* only 36 more weeks of this crap...


Algebra 2 is hard too since last year i took Geometry and pretty much forgot the rest of Algebra 1
I recognize the problems but all the stupid formulas and the order of each step to do it correctly? Ok... yeah right... I had forgoten where i sat in that class when i came in and im expected to remember stuff i did 2 years ago in a subject i already knew at that time while i was focusing on all my others... b(-.-)d

High school is going to be hell...


The only thing im happy for is that my World History teacher isnt that bad and lets me sleep sometimes and my science teacher doesnt give homework and lets us use anything we want for tests and our finals except the text book...
I probably only have 2 unbareable teachers which are english and spanish but spanish isnt that bad cuz I know most of it already... I dont know what PE is like yet...


Sorry im ranting so much ^^; If i dont than i pretty much have nothing to talk about ( unless you all want to know how i passed out on the couch at around 6pm and woke up an hour ago and if so then its because i was tired because i didnt have breakfast or lunch and then suddenly ate alot to make up for it at dinner and then i closed my eyes and went to sleep) and then I would have lied about coming back because i wouldnt post anything so no one would know if im alive or not...
