If you are still in school, when do you go back? And are you looking forward to it at all?
I go back this thursday, the 21st. I am going into 8th grade. I'm only looking forward to a couple things about it, though. One is I get to see all of my friends that i didn't see at all this summer. (There are a lot) Another is that i am finally the oldest grade. This is gonna be great. For example, now I can just walk in a straight line and all the youngin's will have to get out of my way. I won't have to turn or move over or anything. But i still don't like school and would much rather not go. Just like any other person my age.
What about you guys?

I'm going back.....a week or two into September, not sure, but am somewhat looking forward to it, while also not looking forward to it. Getting to see my friends, and getting outta the house are two things I'm kinda likin'. But, then again, all of my REAL friends are in a different home-room. That's mainly because, i guess you could say, for lack of a better word, they're a little dim. :p I got put in the "smarter" class as people like to say. Whatever. >_> I'm just pissed 'cause I don't get to hang with my friends. I'm also going into 7th grade, my first year of junior-high, so changing classes will be different.
Overall, I'm, "Meh", on it.

Ah, alright. The football team doesn't really interest me since I'm not too big a sports fan. Which is why coming out to the east coast/PA was shocking since nearly everybody is. Just, wow.

Anyway, I go back on Thursday(21th) for my sophomore year! I don't have anything against school so I'll be neutral(some people get on my nerves but I'm going to channel them out of my thoughts).

Second year of pharmacy school begins tomorrow. The first semester is supposed to be the hardest semester in the curriculum, so I'm not looking forward to that. They even went so far as to have the first ever 2nd-year orientation last Friday to strike fear into all of us! :eek:
Guess it'll be less RockBand\video games :( but more RockBand (and non-RockBand) PARTIES! :D Oh and a hell of a lot of studying. But I guess I wouldn't be here if I didn't plan to make my life revolve around medicine.
Edit: On a side note, I'm ready to beat down my Stafford loan lender... they need to get off their butts and get my loan money to me so I can buy my freaking books ASAP! Any other college folks having these kinds of problems? Ugh.

If I get all the classes I asked, it should be Honors Chem, Honors English, Economics, Honors Calculus, and Web Design, then I'll go and take English Comp. at the college.

lol your right I don't ever remember seeing Tallahassee get hit by anything. I get a day off every single time a hurricane comes, because Orlando always gets hit, along with almost all the rest of the peninsula. But at least you don't have to deal with power outages or the other stuff that comes with hurricanes. Back when hurricane Charlie hit in '04 or whatever it was I lost power for days. It was pretty annoying and I got reaallly bored. It wasn't as bad as the people that lost power for weeks though.....
Oz1215
08-18-2008, 11:09 PM
meh...im not bored when the power goes out, i listen to my ipod/radio, and play my PSP
i went over to a friends house back in june when the power went out (he lives 3 houses down from me) and we played foozeball...that was THE most fun i ever had playing foozeball ever
