I really need to change the name of this blog. It's not so much life in Sand Creek anymore as it is like in Hammond. I go to college in Hammond now. I have to say that it's pretty great. I can learn without all the annoying people and things that I found back in elementary school and high school. There is no more clicks. You just see hundreds of people everywhere. Some of them make you curious while others seem to make you feel strange. Honestly, people are just nice in college. I can honestly say that I haven't ran into a single person who was rude to me.
My friend call me the curve breaker. Apparently, people really didn't learn anything in high school either that or I am a heck of a lot smarter than I thought I was. It's really simple in college. You literally only have to do a couple of things: go to class, do assignments, and take notes. If you do all of things, you should have a decent understanding of whatever class your in. I thought about doing some tutoring, but I'm not so sure that I should do it now. I am told that I have a habit of getting annoyed when the person I am tutoring doesn't understand what I am telling them. I'll get better I promise. I just got to remember that not everyone got good math teachers.
I am proud to say that my room mate does not suck. I have no idea how I got such a cool room mate. It's nice when you live with someone who is as laid back as you. She's pretty studious, she's shorter than me!! You have no idea how rare that is. I do not understand how I could be so short. My dad is like 6.1ft or somethings like that. Weird.
So as of today I have only six days left of school. This rots because for the first time ever, I have caught that whole I'm done thing. I'm probably not as bad as other people but I can tell you that I'm here anymore in certain classes. It's mostly art though. She has explained the same things five times now. I would have been bored if I didn't have questions to write answers for for sociology. I have two big things due this week. My sociology experiment and my Weebly for exploring tech. I've always liked this class even though it drove me nuts that I always did something wrong on almost everything I turned in. Tomorrow, I am taking the first part of my exam for this class. It shouldn't be to bad.Plus, it means that I won't have so much to study on Tuesday. I think that the exam schedule here is absolutely silly. Seriously, who wants to take 4 exams in one day. At my old school it was either 1,3,3 or 2,2,3. I think that it works much better that way even though it requires students to take exams sooner. I'm so tired.
Cinco De Mayo is Spanish for the fifth of May. This day commemorates the day the Mexican militia was victorious over the French army at The Battle Of Puebla in 1862 . It is celebrated throughout the state of Puebla in Mexico. There is limited recognition in other parts of Mexico and in the U.S. It is probably not worthy becoming of a national holiday since like mentioned before it is not recognized out of Puebla.
Today is also National No Homework Day. It was created by Thomas and Ruth Roy. This National day sounds awesome. I plan on spending National No Homework Day by not doing my homework if I get any.
I really don't care that much about Prom. I went to prom last year and I didn't like it all. The tickets were overpriced and I was bored and wanted to leave. The only reason I went was because despite the fact that I am no girly girl, I wanted to dress up for my boyfriend. I did like my dress though. It was a beautiful long dark blue dress. It made my curves look good. Besides that, I didn't like Prom all that much. I have never went to an After Prom. It sounds strange. It is not super important for me to go to Prom, even if it is my senior year.
Earth Day is a day we celebrate the Earth. It's a day to remember that it is up to us to take care of our precious Earth. I have never participated in any Earth day activities. Three interesting facts about Earth day are: it began in 1970 as a nationwide protest, there are actually two Earth day, and April 22nd was designated to be International Mother Earth Day in 2009. Today we should be doing activities that will promote global environment awareness and help prevent pollution of every kind. But there are simple things we can do like plant a tree and recycle. If we did these on a regular biases the world would be a better place.
The amount of violence on TV is ridiculous. At times it just seems like there is too much violence on. I think that those types of shows should be on later in the night because then the younger people won't necessarily accidentally stumble upon them. I don't watch any TV shows that are really violent. TV shows tend to have a lot of violence because they are meant for older viewers who like to watch violence. There are a lot of people who are entertained by violence.
I haven't actually seen this show, but my dad says that there is a lot violence in it. It's a show about a criminal and a gang that is always out to get him. This show would be appropriate for 18 and up.
I'm going to pick that first Saturday of Spring Break. We had some friends coming down from New York to visit us for Easter. We spent all Saturday morning cleaning. I had to clean my room and everything. Once the house was clean, I spent the rest of the day waiting for two things: Doctor Who and for our guests to arrive. They happened at the same time. It was not cool. We visited for a while and then we decided to order Chinese which is a rarity in my house. I had the Lo Mein Chicken, the Hot n' Sour Soup, and some crab stuff. It was all so just so good. Then I finally got to watch Doctor Who which was awesome. I spent the rest of the night watching television and playing with Colton. Then I went to bed.
