school...

hello! :D

how are you? i'm good, thanks for asking!

next week i go back to school (sigh). i don't hate school, i just don't particularly like it either. it'll be my second term of grade 9 - or freshman year if you're from the US of A. last term i did NOT do very well in my math, so i'm hoping to do better, but i'm also kinda scared of my math teacher (he's this old Greek guy. he's a good teacher but he's just intimidating, and he doesn't have the best opinion of me at the moment). in other words, what i AM excited for is my STEAM class. steam stands for: science, technology, engineering, arts and math. it is one of the electives at my school. last term i did german (i LOVE german, have been doing it since grade 6) and...business... bluurrrghh.

i HATE business. my teacher was EVIL and she was also just a horrible teacher. she wasn't even a business teacher! she was a french teacher!!! whatever, enough about her.

another thing i don't like about school is the people - don't get me wrong, a lot of people are super nice, but a lot other are not so nice. i am by NO means "popular", or what we call a TC at my school. it's probably important to note i got to an all-girls private school in the city. it's definitely something. anyways! i am not a TC whatsoever, but i'd say i have a lot of friends, all of them not being TCs. i sit with the "smart" group, the girls who are good at classical music and do extension maths and are rich and go back to their home countries during school holidays. out of all these three i'm approximately ZERO of them! i don't really fit in with them, but it's better than sitting in the bathrooms all break, and some of them are really nice, but they're just not my kind of people, y'know? sorry, i probably sound really snobby. but what am i supposed to say! agree with them when they say "oh, i HATE singapore airlines business class, their food is so trash! also, if you don't get straight A's you're a fucking idiot!!!!". it also surprises me how much people just don't care about political issues. it sometimes makes me think i AM smart after all.

that's all for now. bye! -g
