Calming Down

Okay, so it's been a kinda crazy week... and will still be...

I feel pretty accomplished... but not enough yet. Throughout the week, I managed to finish a lot of my Acadeca materials. I did music, art, math and my novel (The Tale of Two Cities). This week, I'm starting on Language and Literature, more math, Super Quiz (aka French history), Chemistry and Econ.

That's not counting my other classes' homework. T_T

It's pretty tiring, but I'm sure it'll pay off sooner or later. Nowadays I'm always feeling tired or sleepy during a class. I don't get to practice playing guitar now too! >.< cuz, I usually practice after doing ALL my homework, but I never finish it until like after midnight. So, I can't play it in the middle of the night, everyone's sleeping! =(

Anyway, I have a pre-scrimmage with Marshall High, Burbank High and a couple more schools this Saturday. It's really stressful. A lot of pressure. >.< I'm kinda scared. I really wanna do well. I don't want to disappoint Ms. Kwan or myself. I really have to push myself.

10/26/09 - 10/30/09
ACADECA BOOT CAMP.

some hope?

I just finished reading the whole Acadeca Music packet in like.. 2 hours... i think... Well more or less 2 hours.

I'm really glad I finished it. =) I feel accomplished. I feel like I can do it. I'm so tired, but there's some kind of energy that keeps me going. =)

I have some trouble memorizing, but it's okay. I'll do my best to remember it.

Marshall High School, Lincoln is gonna kick ur buttt!!!!

It has only just started

These two weeks have been extremely crazy. Seriously. T_T"

This week especially.

• I have to finish 2 AP US history (APUSH) chapters this week. I had a test today. Another test on Friday.
• Math test is going to be either tomorrow or Friday. Mr. Luu is going to "surprise" us. Crazy. I'm going to die.
• I need to start on my English book report that is due November 10. Just one day before my birthday. How nice.
• I need to catch up for AcaDeca. I finally finished the art packet. Now I have to do music packet. Not to mention the other 6 packets.
  
• Wish me luck

Yesterday, was a pretty bad day. I had a headache all day. Literally all day. From when I woke up till I fell asleep. It was really hard to concentrate and do homework. When I got home, I wanted to take a nap but I did not let myself. I finished all my homework around 10pm. Yay. I got to sleep "early" last night. rofl.

Today is okay so far. I have to stay after school for AcaDeca. Man. It's gonna be a long day.

Tommorrow... I have a afterschool APUSH cram session and it is going to Open House. I forgot to tell my parents about it. Aiya. I have to tell them so that they will go see my teachers. T_T" I wonder when I will have time to do homework and study for the test on Friday.

Friday. I wonder if I should skip going to FongYi's house this week. Maybe I should stay home and do some homework. But then I really want to go and learn how to play the guitar from Sammy. >.<

Oh yeah, and today, during nutrition, Yong gave me this "super hard" math problem to do. This was the "equation"

(i^3/ 3 + U) > 0

I had to solve it and it turned out to 1< 3U
Yupz.... I was like okay wow. I guess he's trying really hard to convince me to go to prom with him.

Anyway, there's a sub for computer class right now and I have finished all my class work. So, I'm going to just study AcaDeca now.

*Academic Suicide*

Ambrosians & Moon Fest.

I'd like to start off with...
I DON'T WANT TO BE CALLED
THE CLASS OF "AMBROSIANS."
That is so lame.
Do you know what it means?!
Excuse me. It does NOT mean "Worthy of the Gods"
It means "Food to the Greek Gods"
Maybe our class president did not read the whole sentence.

"Ambrosia - Worthy of the Gods to be food..."

And I so don't want to cry during graduation.
"I'll Be There" is not a very joyful song for graduation.
And WHO PICKED CARDINAL RED?!!!!!
I don't want to be a TOMATO for graduation!
=.="
I am so making a petition for a re-vote.
FYI: I did not even know we were suppose to vote.
I am NOT HAPPY.
I did not get my vote!!!

Anyway, it was the moon festival today.
I went to the moon fest around 8pm.
Broadway was blocked up because there was a 5km run.
Pretty cool!
There was a stage set up and everything.
There were Chinese acrobatic performers.
It was nice to feel some Chinese atmosphere.
I really miss it.

So, I went to the Moon fest with my mom, bro & sisters.
I went to the Volunteer booth.
I saw Dennis, Trinh, and all the Lincoln and YUCA people.
xD
I talked to Dennis for a while.
I asked him to change my ShareFest shift to shift 1.
While I talked to him, some girl passed by me and then backed up.
She randomly points at me and goes,
"OMG! Are you WAVERLY?!"
I was like,
"Uh... yeah? Hi? Who are you?" O_O"
She was like,
"Oh! I'm Alan's sister!"
I think for about 5 seconds and then I was like.
"OH!!!"
Alan told me about her before.
Lol.
Yup.
It was kinda weird.

After that I just walked around.
There was not much to do.
So I went back to where my mom was.
She was with Ellie and watching the acrobatic shows.
It was pretty cool.
Then Yong called me.
He wanted me to go over to where he was.
So I went over.
On the way,
I talked to Jennifer a bit.
I can't believe she knew Yong asked me to prom.
=.="
And guess what?
When I got to where Yong was..
Rey was there with him
We talked for a bit
and laughed a lot
Then Rey started to write something
on Yong's hand.
You know with those
"invisble pens"
and then you shine some kind of light on it
and you can see the words.
Yeap

Then he showed it to me.
It said, "We you go to prom with me?"
And Jake read it too.
Then I was like,
"JAKE! Would you say yes?!"
Jake said, "YYEAAHH!!"
LOL.
I was like, "There you go Yong!"
Then Yong was like,
"NOBODY ASKED YOU!!!"
ROFL!!!!
It was funny.
Anyway,
Rey told me that if I rejected Yong,
he'd have to shave his head.
So Yong's hair staying attached to his head..
lies in my hands LMAO!
I told the guys that I'd think about it.
LOL

After all that,
I went back to where my mom was.
Around 9:30pm,
we went home.
Lol there was nothing much to do.
But it was cool ^_^

Club Day!

Today, I went clubbing...
ALL DAY!

LOL

I'm just kidding~ I'm not even old enough to get my license yet. rofl. Anyway, today was Club Day. What happens is that clubs get to set up their booths around the "Free Speech Area" which is basically the whole area in front of the school.

Ms. Kwan (Academic Decathlon Coach) barely told us yesterday that she signed us up for Club Day. We were like "WHAT?!" O___O! She said that she kept forgetting to tell us! =.=" So during 6th period yesterday, we brainstormed on what to sell like crazy. @_@ We came up with - chocolate chip cookies, chocolate lollipops, and horchata (this Mexican drink that is basically water, milk and cinnamon). The best thing was that the school would let us keep 100% of the profit. Usually the school will take 50% of the profit. So this was a really good opportunity. =D

After school that day, we were supposed to go to the gym and work out. BUT we went to the 99cent store instead. We wanted to see if we could buy something to sell. Unfortunately, we just wasted a bunch of time because nothing there was profitable.

Anyway, moving forward to today during nutrition. I went to Luu's class for a cabinet CSF meeting. We were counting the money, putting the forms in order and yeah stuff like that. When nutrition was over, it didn't stay in 3rd period. I told Luu that I was going to help out Ms. Kwan because we were part of the Club Day thing.

Kwan told me and Ashley (her service student) to make the Horchata. It was an mix. Just add water and BAM! You get Horchata. (FYI - I didn't know what Horchata was until today! LOL) It was all going good. Then Anagaby came in and she got mad at us because we were doing it the "wrong" way. It actually did not matter, honestly. She has to CHILL. I think as long as people buy the drink it'll be fine. LOL

(Another FYI- I don't really like Horchata. I don't know why but yeah~)

Anyway, later we tried making more chocolate lollipops, but we totally failed and made only like 6. The rest was like overcooked. LOL Oh well, MORE FOR ME! xD

The bell rung and we quickly put everything away and cleaned up then rushed to AP Calculus. We learned derivative today! YAY! I like it! Class went by fast, as soon as we were done with the lesson, Chiara, Bernadette, Anagaby and I rushed to Kwan's class to pick up the stuff. As we walked there, we saw Johnson and Brian carrying the stuff already, so we just helped them. =)

We walked to the free speech area together and set up our tables. =3 Then Crabtree (another Academic Decathlon coach) came over and brought ice-cream. I think she brought like 12 boxes of ice-cream for us to sell! We only managed to sell like 8 1/2 boxes. LOL oh well~

The Horchata sold like crazy! Everyone wanted it. The cookies were not that profitable. No one really bought it. The lollipops melted =.=" FAILED. The ice-cream STARTED out selling really well, but a lot of other clubs were selling ice-cream too so after a while people got sick of ice-cream.

I think overall, we made a lot of profit. =) I'm glad. haha. It was fun! ^_^ We need to fundraise more next month~ ;P

Wanna donate money to AcaDeca anyone?

FYI - there will be another auction! I will be auctioned off again this year! =D
