But you know what? He got elected anyway. And I'm standing by my president. Congratulations, Mr. President.

Though the fact that we just spent 150 mil kind of seems like a slap in the face. YES, it's a totally historic day. I appreciate that. Jus' saying.

My English teacher gave back our World Lit rough drafts a few weeks ago. She made revisions and gave us until tomorrow to make them. I figured it would be a good idea to take it out of my folder and leave it in the computer room to stem procrastination. Not only did it really not work, but now I've lost the thing, and I cannot remember much about the changes I was supposed to make.

One hand, it's not such a big deal because the rough draft made a 25 (translates into a 96). So it's already pretty good. I'm just that awesome, I guess.

But on the other hand, this is serious business. I want to do the best I possibly can. I'm ranked 35 or so in my class. I want to make top 10% by my senior year. That's going to be hard. ESPECIALLY WITH CREATIVE WRITING.

"David

gotta catch 'em all!

I love the grammatically correct apostrophe.

8:43pmDavid
haha

I concur"

If I make a B in creative writing, I will scream. I lost points on the exam because the story I put in, which was supposed to be fiction, had too many fact-looking-things in it. She wasn't grading the story (admittedly, this relieves me), just giving points for having it. But it's not Fiction-y enough or something. HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD OF SCI-FI? This is the story about the planet having a speed limit and the years getting shorter and stuff. WTF.

Anyway. I'm just running through my paper and trying to fix the mistakes I find. Wish me luck! My grade can't go down, can it?

...can it?

Funny thing to lose points for. :P

I don't remember you ever saying anything about a story like that... :S

Personally I like the parking one. When they show the guy who gave them the spot nodding at them out the window... I always feel like that, so heroic for giving someone a spot. haha.

ps- good for you for working to be SIMPLY THE BEST (cue Tina Turner music)
