current song: why can't i be you? - the cure

well, this was an eventful day. kind of. we've been watching gattaca in lit, and i'm really liking it so far. baylee rented it though, and she says she hates the ending. ah, well. but, yeah, apparently i have the eagles cd in the imagine cd case, so i'll have to swap with nathan next time i see him. it's cool though. i'm just glad someone else likes the beatles. i let him - well, really, forced him to - borrow sgt. pepper's.

in science we went through the syllabus. tomorrow i'm taking the amc test, so i won't be going to physics or history. guess i won't be able to turn in the homework, or that lab. SUCH a shame. yeah, and in history we did an essay, which i think i did okay on. i wrote 3 and a half pages, which is pretty good for me. then in tok we did another essay, on truth. so i had a lot of fun with that. it's really awesome to yammer about your beliefs. kind of what i do on here. so, i basically said i thought there were two types of truth. a concrete and absolute truth, independent of human perception. and an abstract and relative truth, dependent on perception and determined by culture (for broad meaning) and personal consciousness (for specific meaning). erm, something like that...

in math i really didn't pay much attention... in comp sci i worked on my baseball stats program. aaargh. i think i might get a b in that class, just because i'm turning everything in late nowadays, so i get marked down for that. it's really fun, but it takes me two extra days to finish my programs... and spanish was rather boring. half the class was gone for deca, so we worked on ap exercises. blech. originally, during math, alex asked if i wanted to work with her, so i was really happy about that. but, when the teacher said we could work in groups, i was thinking of getting up and going over to alex, but melissa and ivey go join her instead. so, i was kind of sad about that. but, instead of working alone (*sob*) i worked with chaffin, so that was much better than i thought it would be.

and in eighth, i worked on my science problems, and at the beginning of ninth i went and talked to mr. fox about the lab. that took all of five minutes, so i headed over to the library and talked to srav and baylee and nick for the rest of the period. quite entertaining....

but, after school mum got me some food at sonic (mmm... chili cheese fries) and i watched tv, walked the dog, got the mail... then dad came home and we went out to dinner and shopping. fun. apparently, the cheesecake factory just opened at park meadows today, less than an hour after we got there. talk about luck! so, we went to e.b. (apparently, dark cloud 2 is coming out on the 19th, which made mum happy), cost plus, office max, soundtrack, expo, circuit city, and this one store i've forgotten the name of. lovely. and dad bought some speakers, and mom bought a stand to put them on (which dad thinks is butt-ugly). i got some perf notebooks since i am in desperate need of paper. and mum looked at copiers, and printers apparently, since our current one needs to be fed manually, else it tries to eat all the paper at once and gets jammed. lovely.
