Listing Life

Is it sad if I can sum up life in a simple list?

Life sucks because...

So damn much to do.
A.P.E. paper due Thurs; I have to analyze a poem and write like 4 or 5 pages. Shoot. I hate poetry and over-analyzing english. Religion mentor paper. Normally, mentor=someone who encourages you, but no, not in the Benet religion department. I need to find someone to ask questions like "what role has sex played in your marriage," and "what do you think about premarital sex?" Unfortunately, most of the adults I trust are male, so I need to find a female to have an awkward conversation with. Presidental Scholarship crap needs to get done; it's got to be there by thurs, so it needs to be in the mail by monday. Shoot! I have to figure out tax forms soon. Throw normal homework, a couple big tests, and a math team regional on top of my parents' demands and everything else and you've got one stressed out me.

I suck lately.
I offer as evidence:
-My AMC score. Yeah, it sucked, way lower than last year, and I didn't qualify for the AIME this year.
-My last math test. I screwed up=95%. Stupid mistakes, grrr!
-My last bio quiz. Nothing makes you feel like shit like a 27/40. OK, so I didn't study, and she drops the lowest quiz of the semester, but that really sucks.

School sucks.
Normally, I love school; it's probably one of the best things in my life. But lately, it sucks. My classes are mostly boring, and even my math class (Discrete Math) is a little boring and not all that challenging. I mean, the teacher is AWESOME, but I'm a little bored. Bored with school in general.

Turnabout.
=stress and lots of things that need to be done. I don't really want to go, but I'm going with a friend, so I guess it will be fun. Let's hope, anyway.

Soap opera social.
Especially with Turnabout, ¡dios mio! But really, I guess it's kinda how some stuff seem funny how everyone is tangled up and whatnot.

Lack of car.
It's hard getting around, I can't get to chorus on time so I have a 33%, and I feel like an ass making everyone go out of their way to drive me everywhere.

I can't fix these problems.
When I have a problem, I fight until I fix it. But it's hard to sit back and watch a friend struggle with a problem I can't fix for her. All I can do is be there when she needs to talk.

Parental Control.
I'm almost a legal adult, and I'm moving away where they have NO control in about 6 months. Could they give me a little trust? Why are they paranoid about a college visit?
On the upside, we rarely speak anymore, so whatever.

Senioritis.
Yes, senioritis has struck. I just don't want to do boring stuff. I'm sick of doing work, I'm sick of not sleeping, I'm sick of trying to be perfect, I'm sick of everyone's expectations and always failing to meet expectations, I'm sick of being.

Life rocks because...

Science Alliance
Prospect Mini-Regional today. OK, our events sucked (7th, 9th, lower not totally sure of place), but the team (the people) is awesome! It's interesting hanging out with guys all day, especially if you're 'one of the guys.' Oh, and I'm going to get mono from pasta ;) oh man, good times.

Fruit Flies
It's sad when breeding Drosophila melanogaster for genetic stuff in bio makes the list of good things.

...thinking.... there's got to be something more...

My friends rock
Seriously. I love you all, thanks for being there.

Alright, enough of this teen angst bullshit. I'm so whiny. Sorry, I'm just sick of pretending everything is good and happy. Oh well, whatever, it's not important.
