sooo...update! yea so i saw all of the kids i mentioned yesterday today too around campus..it was pretty cool acutally knowing people besides like, andover people haha but yea it was pretty exciting. umm yea so i met some other people today hahaha AND I'LL UPDATE YOU ON THEM TOO!
well first there's this kid carl from lebanon...he's a cool kid and he's only 14 haha he's like the youngest kid i've met so far but even though he's 14 h's somehow goin to be a sophomore? isn't that kinda young for sophomore? but their school thing is prob different yea i guess so. hahah he's so friendly and he's funny and like i asked him if he's done any bonding w/ his dorm mates and he was like no not really...i jsut go to my room and chat (he meant online). so apparently at night and at like 5 in the morning he chats w/ his buddies back in lebanon where it's like a 7 hour time difference. and apparently he has a gf who is "MOVING AWAY FOREVERRRRRRRRR" to canada. aw how much does that suck?! he's stuck here in america at school while his girlfriend is moving away and he's no gonna see her again! poor kid!
then i met this kid erol who's from istanbul, turkey...he's a really tall awkward kid but he's wicked funny hahah and today i was waking towards my mom's car because she was waiting to pick me up and he was like standing there going HELLO! HELLO! HELLO!! but there was som e other kid walking away from him so i thought he was talking to him...and then finally i turend to look at him and ie was liek OH MY GOSH I'M SO SORRY I DIND'T RECGONIZE YOU I THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING TO THAT KID hahaha it was so funny though because icould hear him saying hello over and over again but i idnt' eralize it was to me...yea he's in my precalc calss and he is also i nym tennis "group"
ummm then there's this kid geroge from china...he sat at my table when we took the SATs yesterday but i didnt know who he was...he seemed kinda weird and he's kinda fat but i found out today (from watching) that he's pretty nasty at tennis, which really surprised me because he doesn't lok like..the...athletic...type..hahah yea
then there's some kid andrew from texas. he's white, skinny, and has crazy hair. he's really shy too so i don' know like anythin about hitm
lastly is this girl begonia from spain....she speaks really broken englis hbut she gets her point across hahah and the whole time i thought her name was meronia and then finally she was like umm...my name's actually begonia, no r, and i was like OH GODDDD I AM SUCH AN IDIOTTTT
yea so today was the real first day of classes. precalc was pretty easy, i got placed in the class w/ the kids taht scord highest on the assessment test (there are three math classes taht we could've been sorted into) i don't know how i got in the class thuogh hahah i thought i did sooo bad on that test...but yea so we get hw, but he doesn't collect it, insead we have DAILY QUIZZES to test if we learned the material overnight. how crazy is that.
then sat prep...omg most boring hour and 15 minutes of my life...but this sketchy kid two seats down from me has a camera phone and was like taking pictures of me..like i talk to him and eveything, but he dind't even mention it, and the sound was off on his camera so thre was like no click when he took pictures, and he would sit there and kinda discreetly stick his hand out and turn it so it was racing me and then take a picture, i don 'think he knows i noticed but it was a LITTLE WEIRD.
oh yea i got my scores back from the SAT i took yesterday. I did okay on the math but i did SOOO bad on the verbal and the essay portion....i got a 730 in math, 610 on verbal, and a 580 on the writing. HAHA HOW MUCH DOES THAT SUCK?!?!? korean danny from peabody is a year younger and he still beat me in every area. i'm so jealous.
then i had tennis this afternoon...we split up into groups and my group was all the kids listed above (erol, carl, george, andrew, and begonia) and it was SOOO fun we played king of the court basically for like an hour and a half hahaha but we talked a lot and i got to know them all pretty well, except for liek the kids taht didnt' talk, but wahtever. and there are some kids there that are pret-ty gooooood.
then i hung around school...yea i walked around w/ winny for like a freaking ohur going around campus like going to the dean's office and stuff to get her excused from tomrorw's afternoon activities...and then to the nurses where we waited forl ike 50 years so that she could talk to the nurse about a food allergy she has...and then i went to dinner, talked to thomas a little, went to the library w/ raeling and "studied" (except we got SHIT done), then raeling left and i talked to tu for like half an ohur, then ran around campus for the next like hour getting my stuff and talking to random people i saw, yea it was pretty exciting. soooo today was pretty intersting |
