What Happened Today

What happened today?

Well, this morning I was in a good mood, but then I dropped my phone. And the screen cracked in the corner.
It still works, but I feel bad and that just immediately ruined my day.
Other than that:
I got 17.5/18 for a French quiz, but thankfully the teacher still gave me ES.
I know I failed my SS test.
I haven't started my hmk, but a project is due tomorrow, and I've barely done any of it. I had one or two weeks to do it, but I WILL say that I haven't done anything because I've been overloaded w/ hmk, what with the SAT and all.
The science teacher didn't post homework on MyD, but I have science class tomorrow, which means I am so dead.
WHY IS IT ME?

In conclusion, my day was horrible.
Why me, why me, why me?

BTW: I'm going to start a new blog soon-1000+ things we're thankful for. To contribute, email me at: arabella.kalmbach@gmail.com OR bellar.kalmbach@gmail.com .

Birthday Posters

So, today was someone's birthday, and this reminded me to create this rant post.

A few months ago, one of my best friends had a birthday. So, some of my other best friends (I have a lot of really good friends) made a birthday poster for her. Of course it was cool and I signed it, and we were all happy, but 8 days later, it was my birthday. And they didn't. make. me. a. poster.

You can say I'm annoying or mean, or anything you want, but I am going to throw this out here: If they are my best friends, and they made a poster for this other best friend, shouldn't I get a poster as well?

I mean, I didn't say it at the time, but I was genuinely hurt. Is she a better friend than I am? Or do they just like her better? Or do they just hate me?

I really don't know, and I'm still not going to say anything about that. They'll probably think I'm overblowing the whole thing out of proportion, but I really think that I'm probably not as important, in their eyes. I'm not as important, so either they didn't bother to remember about my birthday, or they didn't care.

I guess they just didn't think about my feelings.

I will repeat this: I was, and am genuinely hurt.

This is why birthday posters are a bad idea.

Hi!

So, the world is supposed to end tomorrow, right?

^^^ watch this!

His views on this matter are quite interesting.

If we're still alive tomorrow, I'll post something.

School's out!

School's out!

I'm happy to just sit here and do nothing, just as long as I don't have school.

:D 

Smile!

More smiles!

Smiley-smiley-smiley faces!

Yay!

Ah, yes. Let's talk about instagram, shall we?

Firstly, my instagram is bakingarabella.

Secondly, Cammie, you should get an account.

Third, I think it's really strange that people like to post many, many, many pictures of themselves.

Like, really? Unless you want to keep a record of how you grow, we don't really want to look at picture after picture of you. 

Okay, that's it for today. 

Except I do have to mention that Dec 21, 2012 is coming soon.

Can't wait.

lol!

Procrastination

So, it's 6:00 and I'm supposed to have finished both my maths homework and some of my band recording, and I started neither of them. I feel so terrible, but I'm so, so tired!

And it seems like we blog every day, and I'm pretty sure that's too often, but it's not like we're actually aiming for an audience, so whatever.

I'm pretty happy though, because one of my teachers canceled an assignment that was supposed to be due on Monday, which he told us about today.

So here's a list of everything I have to do today:

1. Finish my gym workbook (30 min)
2. Band recording (45?)
3. Piano (30)
4. SS, Sci, LA studying (1:00)
5. Maths (30)

BTW, about number 4. I have three summative assessments tomorrow, in a row (well, there's lunch between Social Studies and LA, but still.

I really need to stop procrastinating, but while I'm on this topic, watch this video about procrastination:

I also have to clarify that I am NOT this person, I just like his videos.

The End Is Near

Sleigh bells ring...
are you listening?

Have you heard? The world is supposed to be ending either today, Dec 21, Dec 22, or Dec 23.
In my opinion, this is absolute rubbish. I'm not going to quote the Bible here, but I absolutely sure the world isn't going to end, at least today.
I mean, the skies still look normal *glances up at the sky nervously*

If we manage to survive today, I'll probably post on Dec 21, 22, and 23.

About this. Again.

Rant Post About School-Elly

Today's post is going to be about school.

There is not much use for school. All it does is cram facts into brains of children, then teach them that they are never going to have fun again. Until they're retired.

Video About Education

as explained perfectly by this video. I agree with most everything in this video- that when you're little, you can have hobbies, but slowly you have no time for them, and only when you get retired will you finally be able to do your hobbies again.

I mean, right now, all students are either making homework a higher priority than sleep, like I am, or not caring at all about schoolwork.

Honour roll seems like one of the most important things now, and that's not good. I agree with giving awards for people that get good grades/have good work habits, but it's really stressing some of us out.

Also, really? Two maths groups? Academic teams? Come on, you're splitting up groups of friends. Although that's exactly what you did when you separated us into houses. (I don't mind the houses, though)
Right now, I only get to eat lunch with my other friends (I have friends in my maths group as well) every six days.

School can be fun, but please, please, please treat us more like humans.

We are not robots that can remember/do everything perfectly.

Signed,
Elly
