luciazephyrI've dodged a bullet. Neo's got nothing on me.
Grade's came in for first quarter. I'm sorry to report that I will still be sneaking online 90% of the time.
The good news? I didn't get punished. Hell, I didn't get yelled at.
Art 1: C
Computer Literacy: B-
Language Arts 1: B-
Health: B-
Exploration of Tech: A! I HAVE AN A! OMG!
Algebra 1: D+
Biology: C+
Western Civilization: B-
The rundown:
ART 1:
This teacher sucks. She has a fear of being wrong so strong, she'll punish a student for suggesting she might be. She's got problems. This class itself it more like "Art History" than anything. 60%, we aren't working on a project. We're taking notes on how you do something. And God forbid you try to do it another way! Being creative with amterials is a huge no-no.
COMP. LIT.:
This is Keyboarding. As if I need keyboarding. I only put up with this boring class `cause I need it to get into all the advanced computer classes. So I sit and type. For 90 fuckin' minutes straight. No talking. No music. Nada. Typing what's on the screen. Heaven give me patience.
LANG. ARTS 1:
Cool class. We have to learn the language basics sadly (at the moment, we're doing pronouns and antecedents.), but the teacher understands my frustration and tells me she has to reteach it to us, so I'm patient. She praises my work. I like getting praise. ^.^
HEALTH:
My grandma didn't have to take a Health Education class. I'm jealous.
EXPLORATION OF TECHNOLOGY:
Ladies and Gents, you may want to sit down for this. I am in a workshop class. SHOCK! HORROR! OH GOD, THEY LET LUCY USE A BANDSAW ON A WEEKLY BASIS!? Yeeeep. And I'm doing damn well, despite having no experience in such a class. I study the method of this stuff. I don't use it. Nevertheless, I'm doing well. And enjoying it!
ALGEBRA 1:
It's math class. I can't do math. Everyone already knows this. I see a problem on the paper and go blank. But I brought my grade up from mid-quarter. I'm not failing. I dodged a bullet.
BIOLOGY:
Hate this class. Why, you ask? Here's the thing; whenever I met one of my teachers, I make friends with them. I truly do. It helps me trust them enough to ask questions when I need to. This teacher? Nada. She's so professional, she won't condesend to speak with me casually. I've never seen anyone so high-strung. *depressed sigh*
WESTERN CIVILIZATION:
Words cannot describe how I love this class. The teacher, omg! He is the coolest. He's a Conservation and we make fun of each other before the lesson starts. I adore this guy. And then we laugh at how clueless the students are (I quote: "What the heck is a liberal?"). And we study the coolest things! Greece, Rome, Carthage! Cool stuff! I love this class.
That's about it. I dodged a bullet. I'll still be sneaking online. In fact, since I got those cool grades, Mom's letting me online, one hour for every B. That's four hours (five, when I remind her of my A), so life is good.

I hated Health class. WTF is the point of it?
