End of The Year!!
Totally Rocks!!! I hate school!! Now we have only one more year to go!! For the past two days I have been in heaven. Well, except for the THREE painful shots I had to get. Seriously, even my doctor told me that the shots were going to hurt! Anyways, yesterday I went a huge shopping spree with my mom and sister. My mom was in such an elated mood (she seemed even happier than me because school was over), she basically bought me almost everything I wanted. So much fun. I also got a DS. Now I'm obsessively playing Pokemon Diamond. I'm such a child... Also, do you guys know how to find your friends on LJ because I want to add some of my friends except I don't know their usernames. Crap I need to do: -Give mom the list of stuff needed for VATECH -HP 7 order -Talk to Linda -Clean room/closet -Start packing -Gabriel rec thingie | | Monday, June 11th, 2007 | | 1:20 am |
...
I think I have just hit rock bottom. This is honestly the worst time of my entire life. I feel so insulted yet due to my lack of self-confidence, I just feel so depressed about myself. I have the astro test and the physics final coming up on monday and tuesday, but now I just lost all my energy and ambitions. Why do people hate me so? My heartbeat has been refusing to slow down for about three hours now, and I don't feel sleepy yet I can't bring myself to do anything. I'm trying to calm myself down, but my heart just keeps beating faster and faster. Is this what people call a nervous breakdown? This is such bad timing! I can't fail the two tests, but I can't bring myself to concentrate. I have never felt so depressed in my life. | | Friday, June 8th, 2007 | | 8:01 pm |
End of the Year!!
Yay!! It's the end of the year, and I am now done with many of my courses. I would be completely happy if there weren't a few prickling thorns still on my side. Astro - GRRRR...why hasn't she returned the last TWO test!! I have no idea what I have in that class, so I have to work my butt off for the huge test on monday. AP Latin - DONE!!! I'm pretty sure I have an A too! And Ms. Conklin said she'd write me college recs. English - Practically done. We're just reading Gatsby now. No more work. AP US - Just finished a huge project today! Now we just have a few easy completion grade assignments left. AP CALC - DONE!!!! And I have a high A!! AND Ms. Gabriel said she'd write me recs also. COMP REL - Just one test left, but that class is a joke. Not worried at all. Physics - BOO I got an 85% on the waves test, but YAY Mr. Bagden said he'll drop all of my AP grades!! So as long as I have 93.5< on the final, I will have an A for the whole year!! YAY!! I now have to seriously work work and WORK all this weekend to do well on the final. And, I still have to do the college packet... And I will be moving July to the designated south korean minister's residence because my dad got promoted to a job in DC, so he'll also come back from NY. I'm so excited because its such a fancy house with even a gate! It's near the CIA. I'll invite you all over some time. We even get a cook and a driver! | | Friday, May 25th, 2007 | | 6:24 pm |
*Sigh*
For some reason, I really really don't like myself right now. I just wish I hadn't done a few stupid things this year, and the regret is driving me mad. Well, I'm try change myself I guess so I don't hate myself. I feel much better tomorrow after I get a good sleep. | | Saturday, May 19th, 2007 | | 2:11 am |
AP Latin
Well I took it. I really actually need a five on this exam, but I'm not sure if I got it. But still I guess I don't feel like I bombed it so I guess that's good? I also learned that Ms. Conklin somehow knows about Cinnabar(sp?) Island from the old Pokemon games. You know, that small island with the fire gym and where you can get missingno? (we just translated a word meaning cinnabar) nate coddington: Hey, Jason remember Cinnabar Island? jason yan: Yeah, those were good times nate: HAHA cinnabar island!! (I have no idea why he thought this was so funny) conklin: Yes, but is it spelled this way in Pokemon? everyone: *silence* some kid: how does she know that? But seriously, if I don't get a five in Latin, I don't know what I'll do. If I had a choice between a five in latin or in calc, I would take latin and get like a four in calc. | | Friday, May 11th, 2007 | | 6:35 pm |
APs and Other Stuff
Well it's friday, and two out of three of my APs are done!! However, I still feel a bit icky about both of them - particularly Calc BC... I really really really hope I didn't get a 4 on that exam. That would be so fricken embarrassing!! But I guess I really should have studied more and maybe not gone into panic mode towards the end. I heard like 80% get fives, and I don't think I'm in the bottom 20% of the TJ kids taking Calc BC, but I'm still really really worried. US History was pretty good, except I should have read the DBQ question more carefully. I knew a bunch of sutff about the farmers' responses (like the Granger Movement, etc), but I didn't realized that they wanted you to talk about it too. I did include a bit about the responses though, so I think I got a five. The other essays were pretty good - especially the one about Teddy Roosevelt, and the MC was easier than the practice, on which I got an 80%. Dammit! I should have studied more for calc!! But, I heard that the test was really easy and I got a pretty safe five on the practice test without studying at all. I really hope I got a five... Do you guys know anyone who didn't get a five at TJ? I'm going to call the AP people July 1st to get my score because I just want to know as soon as I can. Going onto another subject, I realized that I hardly ever talk/hang out with guys. I guess I still feel a bit awkward around them. And I also realized the reason why no one has ever asked me out on a date was because I never talk to them. This never used to bother me, but now it does. I guess I'm growing up. Really, this fact has been bothering me with prom fast approaching. I want to go, but I doubt anyone is going to ask me. In fact, I'll probably won't be asked out to prom next year, and I'll be one of those people who never went to their senior prom. Anyway, enough with the angst, I now need to just memorize a bunch of latin poems, vocab, and grammer before next friday. I really hope I didn't get a four in Calc. | | Sunday, May 6th, 2007 | | 1:47 pm |
GERMANY
I really really really want to go to Germany this summer!!! Especially Berlin!! But my summer's already blocked. This sucks! | | Saturday, May 5th, 2007 | | 12:59 pm |
SAT II US History
Mehh... I just took it. It was harder than I was hoping it would be. I can't believe I forgot what the Taft-Hartley Act was about! I didn't think the Subject tests would be so hard. The test for chemistry was so easy. I was also suppose to take it for math, but I didn't because my practice scores were so low. I don't know how people manage to get 800s the math test. Well, I guess I'll just have to study more for June because I moved the SAT II Math test to June, and I'll have to retake the SATs October. I hope I got an 800 on US, but I don't think so. I didn't get the feeling that I aced it like when I took the Chem one. Still, now 2/3 of my SAT IIs are now done. Stuff to do TODAY -Sign up for June SAT subject test - math -transcribe/study ALL latin poems -Photocopy Latin vocab sheets/go over them once -Email Mr. Wong about cancelling AP Physics -Start studying for AP Calc (Have no idea how to though...) -RSVP for Princeton info session -Send personal info/stuff for Gov school -Ask mom to get new batteries for my calculator Tomorrow: -Check what I've missed in Physics -Do Physics HW -Finish translating Baucis&Philemon -LATIN!!! (I need a FIVE!!!!) -Study for AP Calc Exam -Finish reivewing for math tutor/make equation sheet Monday -Go to Astro/Latin -Skip Lunch/HUM II and come home -Study CALC(A LOT) -Latin -6-9PM Go to Rufia's house for AP Latin Review Session I Tuesday -Skip except Physics/maybe 8th period -CALC!!!! | | Friday, April 27th, 2007 | | 4:54 pm |
MUN...
WTF...I just found out I was not in the top three. Neither was Vinitra. Who is this Boris kid? Grrr...I just think it's really weird that the top three were all from the "IN" group - Meliha (Will's date to prom), Greg (Junior Mike), and some kid Marina nominated. Life sucks. Well, I guess I have a very good chance at getting the treasurer position for next year then since Nabeem will be USG. The only other junior officers available for the position are me, Lulu, and Marina/Blake. Lulu's doing mentorship, so I'll be competing with either Marina or Blake. Oh, and Aras...I don't even know what's gonna happen with him though. | | Wednesday, April 4th, 2007 | | 10:35 pm |
OVA 3!!!!
I'm in NY and currently downloading Hellsing OVA 3!!! I just have to wait for like 3 hrs, but I'm still happy. Princeton was awesome. I even had a good chat with an admissions officer, but it was wayyyy to cold. Also, the eating clubs kind of scare me. | | 12:40 am |
Off to NY & College Touring
Well, I've got to start packing now for my short NY trip. Tomorrow, we're going to visit Princeton on the way there and then have really fancy French dinner at the Trump Tower with some high ranking offical from Korea so I need to pack something formal. We're also going to visit Columbia and Yale. I decided to apply to Yale early. Then tomorrow night we're going to watch Wicked. Not too excited because I'm not much of a musical fan, but I heard it was really good. Oh and I got a haircut!! My hair is very short now. I also got a new red nano Ipod because my old one broke, so now I've got to spend hours re-naming, organizing the songs...grrr, but it's pretty! I've been doing alright with studying during the break, but I really need to stop slacking off. My math tutor and I started to prepare for the Math SAT II, so I'm not too worried because she's very competent. Life is pretty boring right about now, but I can't wait until summer. Junior year would be over, and so my parents will get me the Xbox 360 and the Wii like they promised so I can played all the video games that I want. And how can I not mention HARRY POTTER!!! It kind of sucks (not really haha) that I'll probaby be going to gov school during July. No midnight release parties and no Otakon 2007...sniff. Well, I can't wait till next fall either. I'm actually kind of looking foward to college apps, and Halo 3 and SSBB will be released. Oh, and I watched The Departed on DVD last night and loved it. Martin Scorsese is becoming one of my favorite directors. Loved the witty dialogue and the awesome performances of ALL the actors, and especially Mark W.'s, whom I hated before this movie. | | Saturday, March 31st, 2007 | | 12:55 pm |
Spring Break!!!!!
Its Spring Break and I got my SAT scores back... I guess 2330 is pretty good, but my essay was a 9 and my math score was 760. Not too impressive in TJ standards. The end of the quarter wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. First, the Astro test was extremely easy. I think I did pretty well on the US history exam and the physics test. And I think I did pretty well on the Religion test although I never pay attention in that class. The CAVs were ok too, but I should have studied much more. Plus Ms. Conklin was never here for the whole week because she was at her friends's lesbian wedding so we basically did nothing in Latin for this week. And Mr. Kosatka convinced me to take AP Physics again next year, and I'm going to just take the Mechanics exam this year. Oh, and the cover of HP7 was released, and I loved it. The UK one looks a bit weird, but the American one looks beautiful. Anyways, I've got a bunch of things to do over break. -Sign up for May SAT IIs (Math IIc and US History) and the June SAT I (...I was hoping that I wouldn't have to do this, but oh well) -Get Study guides for SAT II US History, Math, and AP Calc -Calc!!! Finish 2 worksheets, do early HW, do the review packet, and work really hard next quarter -Finish translating Daphne & Apollo and wait for more assignments -Read & take notes on Physics chapter 19 -Read & take notes AP US Chapters due then monday we get back -Read first 22 pages of Tao of Pooh HAHA thats it for School stuff. Now, on to the APs and SATs -Study for AP Latin exam (VOCAB!!, review all Catullus poems, grammer) -Start studying for SAT II Math -AP/SAT II US History -others??? I don't know yet OH and download and watch Hellsing OVA III April 4th!!! WEEE | | Saturday, March 17th, 2007 | | 12:00 am |
TechMUN...
**** just made me cry. That fucking bastard. | | Saturday, March 10th, 2007 | | 10:50 pm |
Life After SAT's
HAHAHHAHA I took the SAT's!!!! Now I AM DONE with that goddamn exam!!! Well, unless I score terribly on it, I'm NEVER going to take it AGAIN!!! I really thought that it was way too long. You had to sit there and concentrate for 3 hrs 1/2!!! I can't do that! I just hope I score well enough on my scale to not have to take it again. Anyway, I feel really happy now that the ordeal has passed. I just need to work on working my butt off for the rest of the year so I can get the grades and rec's for next year(I plan on asking Conklin, Gabriel, and/or Kosatka). I also will have to take two more SAT II's during May or June depending on how well I did on the SAT's today. But those are nothing compared to the SAT I. Oh, and I dropped AP Physics. I hate myself for getting Forbes, because I probably would have stayed if I had Dell since he is so generous with grading at the end of the year. I had a low B for the semester, but then I got a D for the 3rd quarter interim so I bailed. Anything below a B on the transcript is a college career killer, so yeah. No more AP Physics. Plus, the drop won't show up on my transcript so that's good. I'm in Bagden's class now, and I have to seriously step up my performance so I can get an A for Physics. And, I'm going to take the AP Physics exam anyway. I can probably get a 5 on the Mechanics because I basically took the course, but I'll have to study the E+M stuff with a tutor my mom's trying to find for me. I got so much make-up work to do because I been sick for like the past three weeks. Hell, I still feel a bit queezy. I really hope I can be healthy again; I'm on like a bunch of meds now. My dad's sick too. I hope he gets better too. OMG Now I can fully look forward to the release of the next Hellsing OVA. I totally loved the screens I just found on the journal. Pip looks great in color! On a side note, I need to figure out who to run with me as VP for Biotech Club...so much decisions! I'm leaning towards Erin. I guess I'll have a little chat with Amanda. Oh and I also planned next year's schedule (sort of) : Senior Seminar (AP US/VA Government, AP English Literature) AP Latin Vergil Multivariable Calculus/Linear Algebra Geosystems Biotechnology Research (I have NO IDEA what to do!!) AP European History (this is if I do well on the AP Physics Exam. if I fail, I'll take AP Physics instead and request Dell) I want to know my SAT score NOW!! STAT!! | | Friday, February 23rd, 2007 | | 8:40 pm |
Election of 2008
Sorry, but I'm feeling very chatty today. Anyway, if I could vote, I'd vote for Hillary. I know many people hate her, but I still like her. In my humble opinion, Obama doesn't have enough experience. McCain supports the war, and that NY ex-mayor is just in contention because of 9/11. I still don't know if I'm a Republican or a Democrat, but according to a online quiz, I'm a moderate Republican. I still don't like Bush though. But he's better than the current Korean president. I TOLD my parents NOT to vote for him, but they did and now they're regretting it. I'm so sick. I really can't afford to be sick these days with the SATs just around the corner. | | 8:30 pm |
Popular TV Shows
So I've started to watch mainstream TV these days. I've watched one episode of Lost, Ugly Betty, and Grey's Anatomy. (All from ABC!!) Lost was much better than I expected it to be. I watched that episode that told us about Hume's past. Haha David Hume...naming a character after a philospher is quite pretentious especially since nothing in the character suggests a link to the philosopher. Anyway, the rest of the episode was pretty good, even if I was confused for like most of it. I loved the twist in the end. I really don't understand why everyone likes Grey's Anatomy. The only episode I watched was the one with the bomb in some guy's body (how did that happen?!), and Meredith? was holding on to it, and the ugly asian girl and Meredith's bf were being incredibly annoying. Then that blonde girl randomly decided to have sex while everyone was in danger, and that boss woman started acting really stupid("I'm not going to push!!") Ugly Betty was funny. Salma Hayek is awesome. | | 8:00 pm |
OotP Movie
James Potter is NOT blonde!!!! Read the books WB!! | | Thursday, February 15th, 2007 | | 2:38 am |
Snow Day and My Computer Skills (or the lack there of)
Yes! We have another snow day tomorrow. I tend not to get a lot of things done during snow days, but I really need to stop being a lazy bum, especially with the SAT's just around the corner. Anyway, I just looked at my last update, and found out that it looked horrendous because the line spacing was completely off! I still don't know how I did this or how I'm suppose to fix this. I suck at all computer/web related stuff. Anyway, I watched more TV today. I seriously love our Encore channels. One of the movies that stand our is "Shallow Grave." It was this 1994 British mystery/horror movie, which happened to be the debut film of a now famous director, Danny Boyle (28 Days Later). I thought the movie was very impressive. It was about these three yuppie flatmates whose new flatmate turns up dead in the apartment, leaving a large case full of money. The flatmates, being totally unlikable characters from the start, decide to keep the money, and bury the body. They draw strawpoles to decide who has to cut up the body, to make it unrecognizable, and bury it in a rather shallow grave. The thugs who were after the dead man find the body, and come after the flatmates for the money, while the police are also searching for the murderers. And as this is all happening, the guy who had to cut up the body starts going insane from the trauma, and the friends begin turning against each other. The ending was probably the best ending in a movie I ever saw. Christopher Eccleston (Doctor Who) and Ewan McGregor (Star Wars, Moulin Rouge) starred in this film. It was interesting to see them here because I got to see them when they were not famous and much younger. It's easy to see why they became successful, because they were both great in this film. I better get to work. Its so hard trying to balance studying for the SATs, and school work. | | Thursday, February 1st, 2007 | | 9:36 pm |
OMG HARRY POTTER
Book 7 is coming out July 21st, 2007!!!! Wow this is much much sooner than expected, but I'm not complaining. I LOVE you, JK Rowling! | | Tuesday, January 30th, 2007 | | 5:32 pm |
ILMUNC 2007
I haven't updated for ages. I guess I'll talk about other things later, but now I'll just say that I'm totally sick of a bunch of people that I have called my "friends" especially the three people I spent the weekend with at UPENN. I'm going to rant right now without naming them. This is to one of the three. 1) God!! You seriously have problems! You really need to stop thinking that everyone is out to get you or something. You always have a way of turning other people's actions into something bad when they had no intention to do you harm. No, your male teachers cannot always be pedophiles who are attracted to you. Get over yourself. And no, I still do not understand why you thought I didn't want to share my bed with you freshmen year. And you just spread that lie all over the place before even confirming with me. You still treat me like dirt, even if I try to be nice to you. Well you know what? I'm so sick of you. I'm not going to talk to you again unless I HAVE to. I'm sick of being the nice person, and allowing people to walk all over me, or treat me like I'm dumb or something. I decided to not be nice/stand up for myself to people sho are not nice to me. Thats all for now. I'll post more updates later. |
