Random Rants VI: See, this is why we can't have nice things!

[Ansar]

I got my schedule, but I did not get French III.

 

[Gogf]

I hate these new Progressive auto insurance commercials. They're so obnoxious.

 

[bhsup]

"Let's bag these up"

have to agree with you, Gogf. I want to punch that checkout girl right through the TV screen and shout "SURPRISE" at her.

 

[LucyDuke]

What's your dad do?

Automotive stuff. He's up there for the Woodward Dream Cruise.

 

[Trajan12]

I figured it was car related. The Dream Cruise, funny enough, doesn't actually come into Detroit proper. For obvious reasons.

My second rant for today: I was hanging out watching tv with a friend of mine, girl I had a huge fruity crush on in Middle School. Beautiful green eyes. Anyway we start talking and then playing around, and then she, out of nowhere kissess me. And that goes on for ten minutes. So that should be a rave, and it would be if not for the second part...

Her boyfriend. Guy's an . .. .. .. .. .. .. . and worse, a paranoid . .. .. .. .. .. .. .. She admitted that in our sophomore year she started to get feelings but thought it would be too awkward. So she's been dating him for this past Summer and right now the cad is the only thing standing between me and the Promised Land. So she says she can just get rid of him, but the guy's a blockhead and won't get the picture for a while. So now I have to wait for it to seep in before I can start formally dating her, and even then I'm not all to sure where to go from there.

And My goddamn bus went the wrong way. $1.50 down the drain and I'll have to register tomorrow.

My new schedule sucks

 

[CCRunner]

My firefox is screwed up so I have to use IE. Now I have to spellcheck all my own posts and I have to get used to not having all my custom stuff

My flute lessons got scheduled at 9 in the morning because I was the only one available at that time.

I guess it's somewhat good. Right after lessons I have music theory two rooms away. x_x

 

[Red Door]

Well, here's my rant on how I screwed myself this year over the summer. I could have been productive because I had no formal job with formal hours, but no, I wasted it on god-knows-what. So now, with school two days away, I have a book to finish, but 3 more books to study to be ready for the tests coming next week. But, my weekend is gone with this training retreat. Applications for college? They sound nice, but I've barely started on the Common Application, let alone looked at other school's application. Heck, I don't even have the foggiest of ideas where I'm going to apply besides for 4 definite schools. I guess I need to write an essay too, but oh well, I haven't started on that. I've got a list of 10 topics I need to choose from, but I haven't given much thought into that. Now my parents wanted me to visit schools in the summer, but I haven't done that (so now I get to do it in the fall) and I can't miss more than 5 days of school this fall. I have 10 mini-essays to write (in Spanish) about current events, but I haven't started. Apparently, they are being collected at second bell, eighth period, on Friday. That means 10 mini-essays, 2 real days to do them.

My Wednesday will be occupied with a worthless trip to school to get my parking pass, locker, and other worthless items as well as a nice trip to court to get my full Virginia license (which, by the way, expired 2 months ago).

This hasn't even mentioned the fact that I've got to go get recommendations from 3 teachers, write a resume, and keep my grades up for the next year.

Oh, and national championship expectations for Quiz Bowl? That too.

On April 1st, when I get that letter that I want from Bucknell, Vanderbilt, William & Mary, or etc., I'm going to coast my way because my fall and winter are going to stress me out.

EDIT: I just realized I completely omitted stress about the SAT, ACT, SAT II's, a hard schedule, and the expected 4-5 hours of homework a night.

Welcome to senior year. Saddle up.

 

[silver 2039]

Muwhahaahahhaa. Mine was 10 times worse. I didn't even start applying until after Christmas. And I took SAT I and II late, and I had to take SAT I twice. And I was doing the IB at the same time. It was living hell. I got like two hours of sleep a night, I would go to sleep at 4 and then wake up at 6 and then go to school and run around trying to get things done. And in between that were things like the extended essay, internal assessments, big lab things that took over my weekends, I had to go to bloody skool on weekends to finish my work. I would spend as many as 4 hours in school on Saturday.

SUFFER!!

You stole the "r" out of the last word, descendent-of-a-convict!

 

[Huayna Capac357]

I'm tired. Too tired to bursh my teeth.

 

[azzaman333]

Explain please.

I turned my last remaining eggs into half omlette, half scrambled eggs, half charcoal.

Still tasted alright, so it wasn't all bad, but still, it looked like vomit.

 

[Tee Kay]

Three HUGE tests this week and 2 assignments.

The last time I had a really good night sleep was in January.

 

[Love]

Last time i had a good night sleep was today

Same thing I would have suggested to Eran, but again your religion gets in the way. Jim Beam is your friend.
