I have just spent the last 15 minutes arguing with my family as to why i need the use of the laptop and the computer at the same time! crying Running this lotto is going to be harder than i thought! I've only just got it started and already it's become a pain. No ones buying tickets. We only just managed to get some affiliates. and the only people who are ever in the thread don't buy tickets but just bump. You'd think they'd at least buy one or two! Perhaps i shouldn't have used Yomi's mule for this thing! Ha ha! Oh, well! All i can do is keep pushing for more affiliates and try to advertise as much as possible everywhere! Ha ha!

Tonight was open house too! ^-^ My first tri is going to be such a pain! crying
1st: Engineering- i'm one of three girls in a class of like 30 students. At least i'll be getting college credit for it. Yay! There are a few perks to this class if the meeting at the end of the year was any indication! ^-^ Yay! Happiness! *does a dance* Mwa ha ha!
2nd: AP Lit and Comp- I guess this class won't be so bad consider i like to read and write. i just hope it doesn't become to much of a hassle with all my other classes. If i end up having to do tons of homework as well as read several books at the same time i am deffinately going to read before anything else! I guess my other grades will just have to suffer! Ha ha!
3rd: American Government- Blarg! Can you say boring! At least i have it with Mr. Johnson and not Mrs. Sorenson! I dislike her very much! Her classes have no structure or order! Half of the time we ended up doing meaningless projects that had little or nothing to do with what we were covering in class. Johnson might be less liked by people but at least he teaches us something! As long as he doesn't accuse me of plagarism again i won't have any problems with the class. I would much rather work out of the book and be able to know what i have to turn in when instead of doing some random crap.
4th: AP Calculus- I.Am.Going.To.Die. I like math but only to an extent. I could sit and do algebra or trig all day but the second we move on to stuff with functions or any of that PDM crap i just get sick of doing it. On the bright side, if i do well on the AP test at the end of the year, more college credits for me!
5th: Band- theone class of the day that i actually like! Huzzah! I love having band the last period of the day! I can just leave if i want to! I don't have to go to a class and try to concentrate on something other than music. I hate having band and then going to math! I can't pay attention! Ha ha! ^-^ I end up getting bored and reading or humming the music we just played!

The more i think of AP Lit and Comp the more i keep thinking of all the crap i've read this summer! Ha ha! Not that it was all crap. I've just read way too much again! Then again when haven't i! Let's see, what did i all read this summer?
