I think it's going to be a long, long time :: Saturday, August 14, 2004 ::

Went to Chapel Hill with my mom on wednesday and thursday to visit some of her friends from college. It was nice.

Then went in friday to fix my schedule. Considering what it COULD have been, I'm very happy with the schedule I ended up with, except for this one small problem:

I can't take Honors B.

This disappoints me horribly because I have yet to have Mo and I was looking forward to Honors B SO much this year. So, of course, my first choice of theatre classes is gone, so that would mean I probably just would have retaken Honors A again. It's not what I wanted and I've already taken it, but at least I liked the class and wouldn't mind taking again (Unless Delaney made me dance again, in which case you would see me and Delaney in quite a throwdown [Oh my God, I just thought of a dance-off between Delaney and I and now I'm almost rolling on the floor laughing] because I refuse to do that assignment again). But NO. Honors A is the same period as English AP and no matter what, I will absolutely not drop English AP. It gets priority above every other class I was and will be taking. So Honors A is now out of the question. So guess which theatre class I'm stuck in? Theatre II. Thankfully, Mo does teach it, and I went to find her after they gave me that class to beg her to just let me do my own thing that period because I really do not want to get stuck in Theatre II with a bunch of freshman...and there's the fact I've already TAKEN the damn class. Unfortunately, she wasn't there. Delaney, however, was, and he told me he would definitely tell her to let me do an independent study of sorts since he knew my situation or whatever.

Um, so, what else about scheduling...I think I'm going to get yearbook moved to second period, because the counselers were adamantly opposed to the idea, and Mrs. Ridenour told me to go to Mrs. Eury and she would switch it. So, if all goes well, yearbook will be second period (I think I'll be by myself, which I think I'd prefer) and that means my sixth period is cleared up. Now, originally, I was going to take Art History AP that period (Which was why I was trying to move yearbook around) but I already have four AP classes...do I really want five? So I left a note for Mrs. Eury telling her to try to switch yearbook in second period and that I'd prefer to take Leadership over Art History, but either one worked. But even if they won't let me switch yearbook, I'm in Film second period right now, which is with Whiteside, which means that it will definitely not be a waste of a class *cough*Photo I*cough* and so I won't be that upset if it doesn't work out.

So, what else. Watched Kill Bill, Vol. 2 with Simon after the scheduling and I must say, after viewing the Elle Driver vs. The Bride fight, I think I might idolize Quentin Tarantino. That and that the movie is so much more awesome on the second viewing. Poor Jesse. We were supposed to go pick her up to go to Liz's party, but the Bill fight came on, and it's the fight the duration of both movies works towards and so we kind of...forgot...we needed to go pick her up.

Liz's party was awesome. I got to see Katie and Rachel, and that was awesome (Can't believe I forgot my Europe pictures)

*Sigh*...and now the harsh, cruel task of MWDSing snaps me back into reality. Have I mentioned how ecstatic I am that my English class is on a B day so I get an extra day to finish the One Hundred Years of Solitude MWDS? Because I'm quite ecstatic.
