Catching Fire, is it really?

I don't know, philosophical rant, switching topics, that kind of thing
I guess we all want to get good grades and get into an Ivy League but I think we're aiming too high. We expect too much of ourselves. And in a way it's good to aim high but you also have to be prepared for losses and not reaching your goal.
Yes, I am one of those people who just wants good grades and be accepted to an Ivy League. And I realize that I am expecting too much of myself. But if I don't, I won't work hard, not that I do now.
On Wednesday I had a PTM. It was interesting, all the teachers said I am so quiet, which is laughable really. And my parents told each and every teacher (and they met all of them except literature and history) that I have skipped grade nine. Some we're surprised, some were impressed, some didn't really care. But the thing I noticed was that every teacher was expecting better grades from me. Except the language teacher, she said 20 on 25 was great and seeing that I had skipped grade nine, kudos to me.
I hate expectations, they're so annoying. The teachers don't even know me, but I suppose I should be glad that they expected better from me because that means that they think I'm smart or something.
I don't know what to post here anymore. I got a new phone so the application is in my phone, and I should post more but I don't. It's a Sony Z, by the way. It's waterproof, and I love it.

New school
I met all my friends and I had a great time with a friend. We are a pair of idiots and we goof off a lot.
We were riding on a small gate going "Wheeeee!" It was so fun. We are the weirdest people you will ever meet, we talk about random shit and laugh like maniacs but I like doing that and I don't feel stupid.
My new school starts from Monday 19th August. In a way I can't wait to see what it will be like but I am also very apprehensive, everybody will be so different from me and I seriously doubt they will be very accepting of me.
Tomorrow is the orientation and I hope that I interact with some people and we become sort of friends, kind of like acquaintances so on Monday I am not so totally lost.
But my mother met this one girl who lives nearby and she is also starting school this year in the same class so that will make the new school better for the both of us. I think.
That is all for now. I have to go get ready and pee.
I hope I am more active from now on.
Tomorrow is orientation. I think I already said that.

My mother and anger issues
Something Funny, Something Random

It's been a seriously long time!
Monday 29 October 2012
Apologies!
So, I'll let you know what i have been up to.... I had my summer vacations, then school started, gave my units, passed, now I'm studying and like a month later I have my term assessments....
Yes, now you'd ask that you had your summer vacations what in the name of God were you doing... Now, now don't bite, sweethearts, the fact is I was doing absolutely NOTHING! Yes, that's right, nothing...
I made an account on Tumblr and finally started paying a bit of attention to my Twitter account... And what I got in return was like hundreds of mails from twitter, i mean seriously, i appreciate the fact that so many people are following me and on such a fast scale, but come on give me a break! I promised myself I would follow back everyone who followed me and I am regretting that now... Because I have no idea who are the people that I followed and they are following me back and who are the people who are following me in the hopes that I will follow back. I'm rambling aren't I? Yeah, I think I'm rambling!
Anyway, I got four days off because of a religious occasion and I got piles and piles of homework (so, maybe I am exaggerating, shoot me) as if we were about to have our summer break, I mean, what is up with that?! Don't teachers have lives? (No offense to any teacher who is reading this, I'm sure you are an absolutely awesome teacher unlike all of mine).
Anyway, if anyone would like to follow me on my Tumblr page, click here. And if anyone would like to follow me on my twitter page, click here.
So, I bought quite a few books and read none of them!
I reviewed none of the books I said I would! And right now I am reading The City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments #1) again. It's almost finished... I just finished Octavia by Beryl Kingston, Insatiable by Meg Cabot, and Overbite by meg Cabot!
I had been told that Meg Cabot wrote chick-lit and I am not a fan of chick-lit to be very honest, so I had never given her books a shot... But these two books were yeah slightly chick-littish but I still liked them. I didn't love them, I liked them!
So, funny story, my cousin told me to read Fallen by Lauren Kate so I asked him if he had read it, well, he being himself; obviously he hadn't, and I am kinda glad, wonder what effects the book would have had on him. So, anyway I loved the covers of all the books and I bought them all, in one of my crazy book shopping spree! And last night, I was looking for a book on goodreads.com and I come across it so I decided to read the reviews and I read them till 2 in the morning and I was constantly laughing.
You know how when you hate a book so much you make fun of it, all the reviews were doing that, and a particular one was very long and that girl made up a talk show in which the main characters were there and she was hosting it! Good God, that cracked me up like nothing had for years!
So, yeah now i am regretting buying all the books, but hey, the books have pretty covers so essentially no harm done!
But Miss Kate I mean no insult to your books, I'm sure they are awesome for the people who like those sort of stories but I haven't even read them so who am I to judge, right?
Did I mention I am obsessed with goodreads.com I can literally spend hours on that damn website and not wonder what's wrong with me!
And the homework that I have to submit tomorrow is still not done, me being me, I will probably spend half the time on my laptop and then when everyone will assume I'm asleep, I'll be awake finishing all the work I should have done earlier!
OH MY GOD! You have no idea how badly I want this school year to end, it sucks bad! And I want summer vacations, and a little r n r!
Goodbye guys, hope and pray that I show my face (figuratively speaking) soon!
