Two Down... Eight to Go
Kaplan courses that is. I had my first two this week. They were... um, I guess you could say, interesting, to put it nicely anyway. For the first class, they made us take a diagnostic test like the one we were prepping to take. Let me just say this- at several points during the test I was overcome with the urge to SMASH MY HEAD AGAINST THE TABLE!!!!!!!! It was terrible! And two and a half hours (not including the half hour for name bubbling). No break. And then I had my second class yesterday. We had to bring the book they sent us. It's twice the size of the phone book. I measured it. We covered like, 6 months of normal math curriculum in two hours. And this whole complicated reading comprehension strategy. We're 30 pages in the book. But oh no, that's not all. I have HOMEWORK from this course. That's right. HOMEWORK. 45 pages of it!!!!!!! And I'm going to get this much EVERY SINGLE WEEK! Even on the days when I have one class on a Tuesday and then my next class on Thursday!! It is going to SUCK! And in addition to that this weekend, I have Spanish homework, a lab to finish (because this incompetent girl in my group screwed ours up and we had to repeat the whole experiment over again), a Social Studies project, and a book I have to finish for English class (250 pages to go). Plus I have two theater rehearsals this weekend and I'm going to dinner at my dad's girlfriend's mother's house for Rosh Hashana (shout out to Sarah). I have NO IDEA how I'm going to get anything done.
Did I mention that my English teacher still sucks and there was a lice scare at my school today?
And I REALLY miss dance? And now I'm getting out of shape because I haven't been to class in so long?
Why do I get out of bed in the morning?
M.E.

Sorry about the dance fiasco. It was a cruel and unusual punishment as we'all know how much u love it. The courses sound as bad as my school. Were you serious about 45 problems???? but its not like they can punish u, right?????
It's one of those things that you really hate right now, but looking back on it years from now it will probably seem like a big help. Of course we all hate it right now.
Uh, PAGES. Not problems. 45 PAGES. Thanks for the advice Kingston and Kaela. It made me kinda feel better.
And the Rosh Hashana food was good.
hee hee, ME would look REALLY funny emo
