School Work

I’m hopeful that those blog posts done in Spanish don’t have a deadline soon – soon as in tomorrow. I believe Mrs. Kirby said the due date was March 31st but I am not completely sure. Oh well, I suppose if it really is due today or tomorrow I can just take a page from the Japanese mantra: “It Can’t Be Helped”, (that is a real, authentic saying, I swear).

In other news, it feels like I haven’t really been keeping these blog posts related to school. I mean, I acknowledge school-related things but I never truly expand on what’s going on in the school itself. Speaking of it now fuels a terrible feeling of helplessness however and, in reality, I would rather not talk about it. I’m sort of drowning over here and have been trying to keep my head afloat for days. It’s not been a fun experience, although I’m still learning new things, things about myself that is. In general, I feel like I cannot stand having nothing to do. I mean, I’m not going to say that I don’t have lazy days or that I haven’t spent a day just doing nothing, because that would be an awful, sour little lie on my part. I never did anything but read and watch what-I-would-call-educational videos and practice my inculpable drawing tactics for several years, recent years. It’s been a tough road of sitting around, but I realize now that I’ve got to get up and do things, or risk sinking to the highly unfathomable bottom of life… or the real ocean. It looks a tad more interesting with all the sea spiders and demonic light fish that I have seen in pictures.  

I think that to alleviate my current situation, even just by the tiniest bit, I’ve taken to writing this blog post on a Monday rather than a Thursday. It’s something to get done and I intend on achieving that option as soon as possible at the moment. Please forgive the lack of quality or that there isn’t anything of note here. If it’s any consolation I have been considering The Joy Luck Club as a next book to read for AP Lit. I am currently reading Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire in preparation for April. The book was a little difficult to follow at first but now I am so attached I cannot put it down. It only adds to my wanton disposition I guess, now that I am in school and constantly having to refocus my attention, but all is well in the GoT universe. Well, not really. I’m not even close to being half way into the book and I’m already in love with certain characters and hoping that they survive the slaughtering soon to come.

Ahh, time for 4th period.
