I am REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY happy that summer's here now. My schedule is perfect for me. I just laze about, sleep late, and go on the computer. Maybe watch a movie here and there. A few parties. And every Monday and Thursday, I go to a badminton class along with three of my friends. They are all about one to three years younger than me, but who cares?
I recently learned how to play mahjong (no, I don't gamble. I just play). It's sort of fun, but I'm still a novice and haven't even won once against my badminton friends. This sucks. It's all about luck, and I sure don't have any of THAT.
There's not much else to talk about. I'm still keeping in touch with all my friends from school through email, IM's, etc. I am playing more games than usual to pass the time. Maybe it's about time I should start using my xBox, after like, what, four months? (That's a long time in my book.)
I'm getting better at drawing digitally. So to celebrate, I will...do nothing.
I'm drinking fruit punch in those little packs with a straw. The straw's making weird noises. This isn't good.

Father's Day
Uh oh, Father's Day is tomorrow, and I still didn't make my dad a present. Yes, I make all my presents. Not because they're "excellent" or whatever (they actually look third-grader-ish), but because I'm trying to be more creative. Like, for Mother's Day I used one of those bigger Ziploc bags, got some plastic boxes, cut off pieces and arranged them and glued them on so that they looked like a rose on the plastic bag, got two different colored cardboard paper, drew a stem so that it worked with the rose on both of the papers, wrote some nice notes on the back, and put them in the plastic bag. So you have a rose and you can change different backgrounds. LOL.
This time, though, I'm stuck. Since Father's Day is all about manliness-technology, cars, and the like. I had this idea where I make a bad paper vase and make different flowers, each in a different stage of a flower's growth, and secretly replace each flower so that it looks like it's growing. But noo, it had to be for FATHER'S day. No flowers allowed. So I'm stuck.
Hey! I know! Maybe I'll make this computer out of a Kleenex box and I'll make a little slot where you can change the background, icons, and each background has a different date+time and different programs. Since my dad is a computer programmer....
...oh, what am I saying. I'm screwed.

HAPPY JUNE!?!
LAST MONTH BEFORE SCHOOL ENDS! YEEEEESS!
Well, a lot of good stuff happened today. And some interesting stuff too. I am no longer worried about my social studies grade because I got my final project back today. Yesterday I didn't know my grade because I didn't get my project yet, which, by the way, is 25% of my grade. Here's how the grading system went:
25%-project 1=A-
25%-project 2=A (yes, there were two projects. Poor, poor me.
25%-classwork =A
25%-participation=well, I don't know, but I'm guessing it's around an A- to an A.
I tried asking my teacher what grade I got, and he just said "Oh, go away! You know what your grade is!" But really, I don't. Shucks. I'll try again tomorrow.
So so far I'm pretty happy with my grades.
P.E.-A
Science-A
Social Studies-Most likely an A, otherwise my teacher wouldn't be so "GOAWAY!"
Math-Dunno, but I got an A on both huge projects, so...
Drama-A
Language Arts-Well, teacher dropped out or something, so I'm not even sure of my grade here. At ALL.
What else happened...? Oh. My friends introduced me to this new, EVIL card game called "Maou". "Maou" in Japanese is "Devil", if I'm correct. So it's the devil's game, and by golly it really is. You guys know how to play "Uno", right? (If you don't, I command you to look it up on Google. It is a really great game.) So we played that except with regular cards and instead of having one card left in our hand, we have to try to get rid of ALL our cards in our hand. And our dealer is the Maou, who doesn't play, by the way. Meanwhile, there are special rules, and if you break those rules, the Maou gives you a card. Here's the mean part:
You. Don't. Know. Those. Rules.
That's right. Players play without knowing those rules, and as a result, they keep getting cards over and over again. Here's an example of what happened today:
Player A plays an eight of hearts.
Player B plays an eight of spades.
Player B gets a card because he didn't say "eight of spades" (Maou tells what the player did wrong every time he/she gives a card, which is great.)
Player C plays a seven of spades, and says, "Seven of spades."
Player C gets a card because he didn't say "Have a nice day".
Player D plays a nine of spades, and says, "Nine of spades." Then Player D laughs and comments.
Player D gets a card for talking.
Maou calls the game. Player A, B, and C get cards for touching their hand and not putting it down when Maou called the game. Player D got ten cards because she didn't know what the **** was going on.
See what I mean? That's an evil game, right there. When I first played it, I was extremely confused. But now I know the rules, which I'm not telling-at least, not all of them. So now I'm teaching all my friends this game. :D
By the way, after school today I walked over to a playground and just sat there swinging. A bunch of little kids were there, probably on a field trip (those lucky kids). So I just sit there swinging along with two other kids and an adult supervisor. Here's the conversation:
Kid A: Mr. Alaaan!
Supervisor: Yes?
Kid A: Can you swing me?
Supervisor: Sure. -swings Kid A-
Kid A: Okay. You can go away now. (I LOL'ed here.)
Supervisor: What? Well, fine. -goes over to push Kid B-
Kid A: Can you push me Mr. Alan?
Supervisor: But you told me to go away!
Kid A: ....please?
And it went on like that. They were so cute, and so lively...I can't believe I was like that years before. It made me feel weird.
Eventually I got off the swing when a boy walked right in front of me. I dug my shoes in and stopped right before he got hit. Wow. He didn't even flinch. Poor guy; he could get hurt like that someday. I figured I might as well leave now, so I went off.
Life is pretty good right now. One class I have free time in, one class I do a project that involves coloring and no brains, which is my kind of project. Two classes I do work in like normal. One class I play cards (P.E.). One class I watch a movie in.
Overall, it's a laid back life. And I love it. :]

OMIGOSH
Long time, long time. And it's pretty late too. Lots of stuff happened. So far I got 4.0's, but this time I'm really scared about my grade in social studies. :(
Uhh...I guess school is pretty much over. I mean, I heard the grades are due this week, and the last day is this Friday, so I only have four more days. There's not much people can do in school for four days, other than party and just sit there. I should start bringing a book or something in case there's nothing else to do...
Hmm...there was this huge field trip for everyone in the school; each person was assigned to a special field trip randomly. I went to the aquarium in Pier 39, and for some only-God-knows reason, ALL of my best friends were with me. All four of them. That's just insane, and is barely possible. But it happened. Isn't that amazing?
Spring's here! My mom has a greenhouse in the backyard and she's growing all sorts of stuff. Just today for dinner I had green beans and potatoes from her backyard. And there's the occasional strawberry. She's also growing peppers and carrots, but they're not ready yet. And mint leaves! Can you believe that? I tried a mint leaf, but it didn't taste like mint. Didn't taste very good at all.
This is the first time I've had a weekend with no work for months. And it's extended, too! I love my life.
What else is there...? Oh yeah. Summer plans: some badminton classes, though I can play OK, and hopefully some skateboarding. I don't know how to skateboard but it seems fun. I like the sports where you ride something, like roller coasters or skating, because it's like I'm flying when I do them. Therefore: it's awesome.
Sine it's late and I should be turning off by now, I'll end this here. Farewell, friends who are still reading this for no reason!

SPRING BREAK!!!!! WOOOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!
FINALLY! OMG! Finally, a serious break. I mean, weekends are great, but sometimes I just need a bit more time to relax. Not too much homework, either! And no vacations, which means I can stay home and breathe deeply as much as I want! I got some chocolate from my parents, which is awesome 'cause I love chocolate.
Out of about five or six, I had two classes that were spent partying on Friday. That's...okay, I guess. Winter break had all the classes partying! It's not really a party, though. More like a don't-do-work-just-EAT. Which is also good, y'know?
Drew another picture in honor of spring. Unfortunately, the picture itself isn't even remotely related to spring.
I am honestly speechless right now. I don't know what else to say, I guess. Ummm...parent teacher conference week ended, and I didn't have any conferences, so it's like a normal week, I guess. No tests or anything, so that gives me a bit of freedom. I need new books to read. Any good ones anyone can recommend? I enjoy some fantasy, adventure, and romance is OK, though not required.
Dunno what to say, so I'll end the post here. YAY!

The title had something better to do so it left this message here.
If I were a gemstone, I'd be an emerald.
If I were a scent, I would be anything that smells good.
If I were a pair of shoes, I'd be a pair of sneakers. Black/white.
If I were the weather, I'd be a rainbow! O:
If I were a facial expression, I'd be laughing.
If I were a car, I'd be a Lexus, probably.
If I were a time of day, I'd be noon.
If were a month, I'd be October.
If I were a place, I'd be my room.
If I were a liquid, I'd be apple juice.
If I were a taste, I'd be sweetly sour. :]
If I were a sea animal, I’d be a seahorse.
If I were a food, I’d be spaghetti.
If I were a color, I'd be blue.
If I were a musical instrument, I would be a clarinet.
If I were a flower, I’d be a sunflower.
If I were a song, I’d be hip hop or something like that.
If I were a planet, I’d be Saturn.
If I were an object, I would be a pair of headphones. :3
If I were a fruit, I'd be a mango.
If I were a sound, I’d be a "BOOOOOOMMMM!!!!"
If I were a day of the week, I’d be Friday.
I saw this on the Viva la Fashion blog and there was this tag on this one post. So I did it. :] I tag whoever read this, and feels like doing this! Time to talk about my day!!
Well, nothing happened. Another weekend's coming up (thank goodness) and I love it when weekends come up!! It seems like there's so much time to relax even though there's only two days. I get to sleep late, do whatever I want to do, and go to sleep again knowing there's one more day of freedom.
Spring break's coming up! Can't wait! Wonder what I should do, though? It's a whole week, after all. Hmm...
Gosh, it's sooooo hot outside now. I'm starting to use cold water for my showers, and it feels pretty nice compared to the extra heat. And I don't want to open my window to my room right now 'cause when I do, for SOME reason there's a lot of flies around. -_- *sigh* I liked it better when it was raining.
Fitness testing for P.E. is nearly over! Finally did the mile, got 9:09. Compared to other classmates' scores (10 minutes and something seconds), I was pretty happy. That is, until I saw that almost all of my friends got 8 minutes and something seconds. My spirit drained out. :( Actually, for me, testing is already over now. But some of the people in the class didn't do the mile yet (we take two days to get through the whole class), so we'll be doing that on Monday. People who already ran the mile help time the people running, so that's what I'm gonna be doing. Which is fun. At least, better than running.
My report card's GOTTA come sooner or later!! I mean, GOD! The suspense is killing me! My brother already got his, but what about me?? I wish report cards weren't so official....sigh...oh yeah, I just took a look at my calendar. Apparently today was the end of the report card period. I never knew that. I just hope my grades are okay. *sweatdrop*
Just turned in a huge assignment for science, and there's a project due in social studies. Not looking good on either of those. Since when was school life so hard??
I'm pretty much done here. Byyeee!

HAPPY MARCH!!
It's sort of late, but I've just gotta post something. I mean, it's the first day of March! Spring's getting closer every day...and then all the rain will evaporate...and then summer! YAY! Oh, wait, maybe I'll be forced to take another unwanted vacation...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
*ahem* Enough of the complaining-I'm thinking too far ahead. There's already so much stuff happening right now. There's this huge writing school-wide test tomorrow and it'll take homeroom, first period, and second period to finish it. I've been studying the different possible essays we might have to write, but since I have a certain bad language arts teacher, I have a bad feeling about this.
I just recently took another huge (not school-wide) test for social studies that counts 50% of my grade, if I'm correct. My teacher says he'll definitely have it by tomorrow. Is that good or bad? I'm not sure, because I'm not very confident in this test.
My science teacher also owes me another test, but hasn't said anything about it. AGGHHH!
I got an A on a P.E. test. (Yes, I know. Who ever knew P.E. had tests? And yes, it's a written test. May the Lord bless us.) It's pretty good, considering some lower scores in the class. I'm talking C's, and possible D's. Not a pretty sight. Also won a sports award (YAHOO!) for the second time in my life. Life can be so fair sometimes.
In drama, we're going to perform scenes from "A Midsummer Night's Dream" in front of the class. I guess I said that before? Ah, too lazy to check now. You guys check it for me. :) Anyway, I'll be performing from Thur to Fri this week. Again, I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Probably bad.
STILLCANTFORGETTESTSMUSTLOOKATSCORESSOON
I'm pretty comfortable right now. My older brother and my dad just had an argument. My brother's a computer-addict (like me) and gets bad grades because of it (unlike me), and I'm not entirely sure of the situation, but from what I heard from their screams, I guess my brother somehow broke his computer out of anger and my dad asked him what happened and my brother said something dumb that made my dad angry and somehow they started fighting. But it seems like they're calming down now. That's good. My mom's busy on the phone laughing and has been since the last thirty minutes. I'm serious. I can hear her now. "So is it going to open? Oh, _:__ PM to _:__ PM?" Ah. I just realized she's probably talking about badminton. Okay, then, that's normal. Meanwhile, I just taped up a few broken papers in my schoolwork and otherwise I'm pretty happy. It's nice to have a blog to rant to.
I got invited to this 4.0 tea thing. Well, my parents did. I'll be forced to go whether I like it or not. They call it a tea, though? I call it cake-time. They give you a small slice of cake and you enter this room that has at least a million 4.0 geniuses in it and you try to find your friends and some peace so that you can eat your cake. It's on March 11th, I think. Okay, I can deal with that.
I guess I'm done writing now. My hands are starting to feel sore...oh! Try this website that tests how fast you type per minute: http://www.typeonline.co.uk/typingspeed.php. I did it and I got 103 words per minute!!
