As most of you know it, I am back in school. =D
It was really really crazy.
Day 0On the day before school started, I went to school to find out my classes and hopefully change my classes in advance. Unfortunately, I didn't really get what I want.
Most of my schoolmates know I want AP U.S. History, but the school wouldn't let me take it because I was only a sophomore. I even talked to my previous history teacher to help me out. He tried to but I guess the school really didn't want people who weren't Juniors to take it.
SUCKS
Day 1Yesterday was a really hectic day. Really. My counselor didn't really help me and she made me run all over the school. See I had a problem with my schedule.
This was what was given to me:
------------------------------Period 1 - Mandarin 3Period 2 - H. BiologyPeriod 3 - H. EnglishPeriod 4 - PEPeriod 5 - H. PreCalculusPeriod 6 - H. World History -------------------------------My period 1 was okay. We didn't do much. My mandarin teacher - Ms. Chai, just talked a lot and made us talk about our summer.
I THOUGHT period 2 was going to be OKAY, but I was wrong. =(
My Bio teacher - Ms. Kwan, persuaded me to join her AP Bio class. It is two period - 3rd and 4th. So that means, I have to change my schedule.
2nd period onwards was so confusing!!!
Ms Kwan wrote me a note to bring to my counselor saying that I wanted to change my classes. We thought that by doing some rearrangements, I could get my classes easy peasy since today was only the first day.
I went to my counselor and I waited outside her office for like at least 30mins!!!! Honestly, she is one of the worst counselors a student could get. She didn't help one bit. She kicked me out of her office to solve the problem on my own. So I had to go ask teachers for help or see if they had a space for me.
Man I was so wrong. All the teachers that I wanted we not available. Their classes were full to the MAX, some were over the max. This one teacher told me she had only 36 seats and 46 students. She had no space. LITERALLY.
I went back to Ms. Kwan. I was like, "Ms. Kwan, *out of breath* I have a problem."
We talked about it and off I went again.
So I walked around and around and around asking and asking English teachers if they had a space. I finally decided to go to the teacher that was assigned to me and ask her for help. She was such a nice lady and told me to get a print out of all the English classes.
So, I went to the computer room and I waited and waited and waited. I also bumped into my previous History teacher. I told him my problem and what I was planning to do and he was like,
"All right, sounds like a good idea. Let me know how you are. Drop by my class."
So, like i said, I waited and waited and FINALLY. I got this brilliant idea. Why don't I go to my previous English teacher. She could help me. I thought. Unfortunately ( again), when I got there she couldn't help me. She told me to look for the assistant principle. He didn't really help either. So,I went back to the computer room and finally got a print out!
*FINALLY*
I went back to that nice teacher's class, panting, and she found me a teacher - Mr. Leys. I know who he is. I don't think he's a great teacher. I know he's the Debate Team teacher, but the Debate Team is pretty dormant.
ANYWAY, after finally figuring out my class, I went back to my counsellor and she made me wait like for ONE WHOLE PERIOD. She was running in and out of her office. People were going in and out. Teachers and Admins were too. Gosh her room was always jam packed. So, finally after people stopped coming in for like 5 mins, she did my schedule.
WOOHOO!!!
My current classes are now
------------------------------ Period 1 - Mandarin 3 Period 2 - H. English Period 3 - AP. Biology Period 4 - AP. Biology Period 5 - H. PreCalculus Period 6 - H. World History -------------------------------
Day 2Today was definitely much much better. I really enjoyed myself. Except for the fact I already started getting homework.
Oh I also gave my teachers nicknames.
Period 1 - Ms. Chai - Chai chai chai.
Period 2 - Mr. Leys - Dormant Debate Team Teacher (DDTT)
Period 3 - Ms. Kwan - haven't thought of one yet.
Period 4 - Ms. Kwan - again
Period 5 - Mr. Luu - GPA KILLER
Period 6 - Mr Zapata - Senior
Anyways, I know that whole post didn't make much sense but I have to go sleep.
NITE NITE!
