Today was a funny day!

This started before first period. There was no teacher in our first period, so we had to stand outside until someone came to open the door, and rather than just stand there BORED, Jennifer and I walked around “in circles” until we saw that the door was opened. Finally, roughly 7 minutes following the ringing of the bell, a security guard came and opened the door. A teacher that goes by the name of “Mama Z” subbed our class. She is the funniest person I have ever met, and she doesn’t even try to be funny! Okay, first, in order to do attendance, she walked around the whole class and shook everyone’s hand happily stating, “Mucho Gusto!” (She later explained that it means happy to meet you…I had no idea! I simply smiled and nodded!) and asking what our names were. (Gosh, I hope she doesn’t do that in her real class!) Anyways, she had the weirdest teaching methods and I told Jennifer Damn, I usually don’t really like Mrs. Cruz, but today I'd be happy to have her back here today! I had a lot of trouble with the work today, but I was determined to find out how to complete it independently, for I wasn’t going to ask her any questions.

In second period, Kristel and I were laughing at anything and everything as usual. I was like, “Remember that one day when Mr. Hughes walked into the door?” and we laughed horrendously. In third period I was messing with ebony because she asked to borrow my book, so we shared. It was so funny. That boy-girl Latoya (she dresses like a boy, and after reading the article in Vibe magazine last week about the femmes and the aggressives, I have suspicions) kept asking me if I curse and wanted me to say all of these words and shit. I mean, what the fuck does she think I am? My parents “curse like sailors!” (Well, my parents actually are sailors since they met in the navy) It’s all right, though. I know that she’s simply another insignificant obstacle in this forever road called “adolescence.”

Lunch, and 4th period weren’t all that fun! I mean, I had my laughs and everything, but nothing really stuck out in those classes. In 5th period, I found out a lot about everyone in the class. I found out that a lot of people don’t like nosy people, a lot of the girls in that class like to sing, and that the majority of the girls in that class are incredibly, and unbelievably shallow. We had to complete this worksheet where we explained how we feel about ourselves physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually. Mr. Haynes said “If you have time over the weekend, you can judge me using those topics. I’m confident about myself. I KNOW I look good!” Sata busted out into laughter just as soon as he finished that last line. He simply laughed and shook his head. I won’t discuss what I think he was thinking at that moment because now Sata and me are friends.

In chemistry we’re discussing this thing called “Avogadro’s number” which is an equation you use to figure out how many atoms are in a chemical compound. All of these people were like “Yeah, Mrs. Johnson how do you do the avocado number thing?” Okay, I thought it was funny, and that’s all that matters.

We had our first day of Sex Ed today, and it was a lot of fun, and also very embarrassing. First, we learned about families and how they deal with their anger and things. Someone who will remain nameless, said they like to “do things” with their mom, if you get what I’m saying. (Or like me and Brandon say “you do the math”) it’s an inside joke between the two of us. Anyways, I thought since we’re in high school, we’d be a lot more mature about Sex Ed. Boy, was I wrong. Oh my gosh, almost the whole class laughed hysterically when Ms. Bryan said “genitals” and “period!” I mean period is also the little dot that comes at the end of a sentence, people. Damn, I'd hate to see those people in English class. (“Uh, you forgot the period at the end of this sentence.” *laughs hysterically*) Haha, when we discussed enlarged muscles, Ms. Bryan got Dante to demonstrate how large his muscles have gotten, however when we got to the section where we explained that the genitals enlarge, she asked Dante to sit down when he wanted to demonstrate. (Read “between the lines”)

All in all, it has been a very good day. On top of that, I think I have one of the highest grades in Algebra 2, and I have a 96% in Software Application by Design Class so, I’m floating above the ice! Alright, people, take care!
