High School

You have to do all your exams at the end of the 2 years don't you bud? Ouch, we were the last modular year if I remember rightly.
Yeah, not looking forward to the next couple of years.

Go to sleep earlier. And don't say you can't.

Because you don't go to bed early enough. Every time I stay up too late, I'm always cold the next day.

That's not only in England. It literally takes a blizzard to close schools here. A few inches of snow overnight won't do it. Kentucky doesn't even close schools for a bit of snow.
Well said 👍
Oh. No. Today is the day I dread. Last day of Summer holidays, & tomorrow we go back for half a day. :nervous:
:lol: You make it sound so terrible, it's not that bad at all. It's more fun than anything, you get to see what your semester will be like, and who you sit beside. If you end up sitting by all the hot chicks it's a bonus. Because you can give the answers, for favours ;). And I have to do a full day. Keep an open mind and you'll find it's not bad at all.
 
Does anyone go to a high school that has any motorsports teams? Maybe like karting or motocross? I've never heard if these types of things are high schools, but I'd totally try and join if my school had something like that.

That actually would be pretty cool if motorsports were adopted into high school sports. I Googled it and found that schools in Bakersfield has a program that involves eligible students into stock car racing. It also seemed to spread the program to other states as well.

No but we do have a group for motorheads, one of my friends is aiming for Nascar, here is his website.

I'm one of them, but I don't actually race besides Autocross every once and a while. I just hoon.
 
So not only did I get CLASS CREDITS for standing on the sidelines for my Sports Med class, but I also coaxed the girl who sits next to me (Who I've had a thing for since last year) to let me PICK HER UP and do it with me.

I cannot believe this.

The next day, I go intern at the Post-Game clinic, and not only did I get my internship credit, but the Athletic Trainer took everyone who was working OUT TO BREAKFAST.

So I'm getting a 2nd class' worth of credit to..
-Watch the football game from the sidelines
-Gain valuable experience in my desired field of work
-Get informal dates/time spent with the girl I like
-Free Breakfast

What?! WHAT?!?
This is way too sick. I must be dreaming. Highschool is awesome.

I start tomorrow. I have no idea where Hal my classes are and no idea who is in my lunch class. Well, this year is gonna suck I can feel it already.
 
Quote from tomorrow in AP English:

"And to display the usage of Summer, among other seasons, as a theme in modern works of literature and other related media, we have chosen the song "California Gurls", performed by Katy Perry and Snoop Dog. In case you are unfamiliar, we have provided the song as an example for your listening... Enjoyment "

Gym is a joke. Just show up in the proper clothes and do what the teacher says.
 
^ God I hate gym. The only time I actually wanted to go was when we were weightlifting. What I especially hate is when you HAVE to participate.

You can't actually get graded on physical stuff. Eliminates the real point. You just get wet shoes from the wet grass. For the whole day you have wet socks.

Oh, the horror! Getting graded on performance!

Get used to it people. Unless you're not interested in getting raises.

I would rather get graded on performance, since there's actually a point in doing something. :P

Finally started my new school.
Turns out a girl ive never met in real life (only Facebook) attends this school. So it was weird seeing her.

This is how it went:

I played it cool as if I have no idea she's there the first day of school. & next day I go walk up to her and kinda got nervous & asked.

Me: "Do I know you? You seem familiar."

Her. "Do I know you? O.o"

Me: I'm Mohammad.

Her friend(also know her): Mohammad what?

Me: Mohammad Afaneh.

Girl #1 to girl #2: I told you I saw him!

Then we said hi & just left lol. But can someone explain why she was acting like that? I'm confused!

Oh & she's a year older than me.

She probably likes you... I start senior year Friday :( im going to miss school. After this its collage, job, live on my own... No more living off my parents
 
Well said 👍

Ha, one way to look at it. But I'm still nervous as heck. Last year :( Don't know what on earth I'll do afterwards.
 
They actually grade you on performance? :lol:

Yeah they do for me, I didn't jump rope at the beginning of weight lifting because of my swollen big toe and teacher got mad at me and wanted for me to get on the elliptical.. I got stuck with a group of wimpy ass kids one day, all they did was stand around, they didn't even bother to spot eachother on the lifts. This kid almost had the bar fall on his ****ing face, I was so glad I spotted him. I had some weights on from when I was squatting which was about 45 for the Front Clean squats.. I said "Are you sure you can lift this" He said "Yeah Yeah come on" He started to fall backwards.

Same. I have 2 classes and Auto Tech. I can leave 3 hours early.

Well you're lucky, I have some friends that took that kind of class. I wish I took it last year because I would be in the Senior class with them.
