I got my schedule changed today. Now I have tech. I have automotive technology and small engine repair/ maintenance. So I'm happy. Have those on the morning and then two classes afterwards and then I leave.

Shame I'm a sophomore. I'm almost 6 foot tall so major height difference
Not telling you the name... For privacy reasons
Not asking for your personal information, Locker number, address, etc. Maybe the city?
In the meantime forgive me if I doubt your knowledge of graduation rates and college entrance figures for Seniors who graduated when you were still in school at an age where recess is part of the day.
You may attend a fine school. If so, work hard and have a great year.

So far German is my favorite class. Germany fascinates me so I can't wait time learn about their culture and their language. Plus the teacher is awesome.

True, though German cars aren't my favorite, they're quite high up there.

Not sure why you're telling me this but thanks.
Has anyone here taken AP classes and been denied college credit?

Psh, I'm 5ft tall. Or should I say, 5ft small.
Today wasn't that bad. For the first period we stayed in our form rooms (or 'base' rooms as we call them in my school) to get our new planners and timetables and catch up on what everyone did over the summer break. I admit, my timetable did surprise me and the teachers aren't that bad. The classes however, have almost no one in that I talk to, and the ones that do, my friends are sat on the other side of the room. That makes me turn into a mute and go all shy and if I need help I'm too shy to ask for it.
I started with double History today, which wasn't that bad, apart from the fact I was shivering all the way through because someone thought it'd be a nice idea to have all the windows open, when the room is on the very top floor of the school. I mainly chose History because we're learning about American history, 1919 - 1929 in paticular. The Roaring Twenties and Moonshine interests me a lot, paticularly because when my great grandad lived in Canada he did a lot of Moonshine business... so I'm told, anyway
. Then after we've finished that topic we move onto German history, mainly Hitler's Germany, how he ran it, and what went on before the war started, how it started etc., which interests me too. Then we'll move onto Britian through the World Wars, what life was like back home, how Britain coped, how they tried to keep peace and stuff. So History isn't that bad.Then I had Maths, which is virtually the same class as last year, except one of my friends moved into it and the annoying popular guy moved out, although my friend sits on the other side of the room, so... made no difference. We were just basically revising angles and stuff... bleh.
Then I had Science, and discovered that it was indeed full of chavs, and nobody I knew was in there. So, what did Miss decide to do? Work in groups the whole lesson! So I was that kid who's left over after everyone gets into groups and is awkwardly looking around. Yeah... that wasn't fun. I even asked to change from BTEC to Dual Core & Additional, but my brilliant school basically just went, "...Cool story bro!" and ignored my request to be moved.
I haven't had Resistant Materials (woodshop, basically) yet, but I know the other girl I know who chose it isn't in mine because she started with double Resistant Materials today. Euughh.
We also have 'life skills' as a subject now. Rumour has it that we learn to iron and stuff in it. Right. Should be interesting watching the lads do that.

You all scared of exercise or something?
I took GCSE PE so I do 4 hours of sport a week in the winter with 2 hours of theory and 5-7 hours of sport in the summer with no theory work. I sometimes wonder whether I should have taken music since I enjoy it slightly more but this keeps me in good shape, it's an easy A* and I have good banter with our teacher.
Is that seriously a GCSE subject? Why don't we have that, that's BS.

While you guys all write about the start of school, I have just 9 days of school left forever followed by 3 days of graduation celebrations. Then it's all focus towards the HSC.

No. It stands for Higher School Certificate, the final exams you take in my state of New South Wales.

5 feet tall? Shorty!
I wish I had history in my schedule; I really enjoyed it, it's like one big story that never ends.
Like your science class, mine is full of...I wouldn't call them chavs, more like that talkative-popular-kid group. Basically a bunch of jocks who all like to surround the lone girl in their group. It's honestly quite weird; I guess they just want to try and get some. 
Problem with that kind of group of kids is, they chat a lot, and that's fine by me. Last year, when I actually had friends in my classes, I talked a lot too. Thing is, the physics teacher, though I do like him, likes to give out homework to chatty classes. So far, this is the first night we haven't had homework. Nice thing about the class is that since it's a more normal bunch of kids, the standards are lower, so I don't have to work quite as hard to do well.

Read this story, it will give you an insight on what girls usually think when you approach them in public, it gave me good advice on what to say and what not to say.

Also I hate guys like the ones that are mentioned in the story, just leave the girl alone, I know, I myself am not like that. I just leave girls alone, I may give a look or two but ****.. Just annoying.

Yup, 5ft. You know all those songs with 'shorty' in? Or rather, 'shawty'? Yeah, those songs are about me.
Well, most are chavs in my class. Chavs or those shifty quiet ones who will one day turn into serial killers. They're just so... dumb. I don't want to sound awful or big headed, but they are. I had no idea 14 year olds could have mental abilities that low. All the girls who plaster their faces in bright orange make up and wear pants so tight it's like they dyed their legs black, are just bombarded with the boys acting like over excited puppies. Then they'll start doing some weird flirty prod or slap their rear, then the girl will go, "Noooo, stop iiitttt!" but smile, and just offer herself to him to do it again. I mean, really? Then they'll try to act all tough by saying, "Man, I'm getting stoned tonight, innit." Parents who produce these kinds of people should not be allowed to breed. I'm embarrassed to be of the same species.
Wow, that was pretty extreme... o_O
Never had that happen to myself, but I feel sorry for that woman who went through it. Guys forget that we're not all Nicki Minaj and don't appreciate being spoken to like that. Just because you saw a guy say that on Jersey Shore and it worked doesn't mean it's going to work in the real world.

Why the hell would somebody get THAT pissed off over what she said? Something had to be wrong with the guy.

She would get a lot less aggro from people if she didn't say "Leave me alone, i'm reading a book" right away. That blog reeks of self-pity, too. Boo-hoo, woe is me, i'm a woman. Heh.
