SpawnPoint

School is a whole new beast this year.  You would think what your teachers, peers, and principal saying that sophomore year is easier than freshman year is full of it.  I expected more work but not this much.  I have not even logged on to play CS:S, or any other video game of any kind since Saturday.  I normally do quite well with time management, but it is starting to get to me.  I thought I was on a good pace to finish my unit work for AP European History...Well, I need to rethink about my time management even more!  This is my little rant in-between writing theses for AP Euro...Then I have to go and do Precalculus Honors :(...I probably won't get on until this weekend.  HOpe to see you there!        

I am deciding whether or not to go to homecoming...How nerdy is that.  This blog is overdue....about a week or two's worth overdue....Don't hurt me Weaver I swear I'll make you profiles.

While I am talking about profiles....I am now officially part of the SpawnPoint.com team.  I am now part of the staff.  It feels good.  I now have to get a picture of myself and write up a biography about what I am like.  I will eventually be seated somewhere in the 'About Us' section on the bottom of the page.  I should just say I am dedicated to SpawnPoint and computer and console games.  Well, actually I am somewhat dedicated to school.

Sports....I tried out for baseball again.  I think once again it is political nonsense.  I caught for six innings and had no passballs.  I lines out to the right fielder and legged out a single in the hole.  Eh, things like this aggravate me at times.  Even my friend.  He did a decent job batting but struck out all six of the six possible batters and he didn't make it.  I guess I'll be playing club baseball and running in school track. 
USC vs. Stanford.  Any real USC fan knew Booty sucks in the first place.  He had four of it is the quarterback's fault interceptions to Stanford.  USC is now ranked 10th in the AP Poll.  I think they are going to rock Oregon's and Cal's socks...Well at least give them a run for their money.  What also baffles me is how UCLA lost to Notre Dame.  Notre Dame was 0-5 going into the game and then they dominate UCLA.  I guess Appalachian State can beat UCLA then...

English II Accelerated is weird.  My track coach is also my English teacher.  He tends to pick on me just because he knows me better than the majority of his students.  We are reading All Quiet On The Western Front it is a pretty easy read and I am about a third of the way through the book and it has been pretty good.

Math is seriously one of the most boring things there is....at my level.  All we have been doing is simple math stuff, but we have to analyze random stuff on what makes a formula such as the quadratic formula work.  Honors Precalculus has pretty much been a general waste of time.

Tennis is interesting....I am the most athletic but not the most talented....I'll just stop talking about that.

AP European History is a great class.  I am pulling a mid-range B right now.  I need to learn how to memorize stuff a little better.  I got a B+ on a test of memorizing countries, capitals, rivers, mountain ranges, and bodies of water around Europe (spelling counted too.  I spel lik firefigter). 

Chemistry is another boring class for me.  Up to this point in the year I know everything.  Most of this stuff so far is just like review of measuring and doing math.  Like my homework for Chemistry tonight was to read chapter two in my textbook and it was a review of what we already knew and what we learned in class.

Spanish II is interesting.  I speak pretty fluent Spanish because I am half Mexican and I am getting a solid B in that class, but I got a fifteen out of thirty on my quiz...So, I am going to go in at one of my breaks and see what I did wrong...I am pretty sure she forgot to multiply the fifteen by two to get the thirty that I am ninety-nine percent sure I earned.

MMMMM....Pepper jack cheese!  I am gnawing on a block of that good stuff right now.

Today was my second day of Sophomore year in high school.  I go to ANHS (we are the school of south Orange County that is famous nationally for freak dancing....).  Most of my teachers are cool except my Honors Precalculus teacher.  He expects us to teach ourselves a good portion of the lesson for math.  Anyways my track coach is my English II Accelerated teacher.  He played a joke on me both today and yesterday...Now I have to get back at him.  My AP European History teacher is amazing at what he does.  It makes me happy that I took that class.  My Chemistry teacher is the head of the cheer drill stuff at my school.  My Spanish II teacher is also a little off-center with the way she does things...But this should be a year with a lot of fun!
