FCAT... all students who live in florida dread the word
Why you may ask? Simple really, it can hold you back from passing a grade, graduating high school, can put you in lower ability classes and waste the time of those who have already passed it.
Take today for example, I, being an 11th grader, have already passed the FCAT, according to the FCAT all 11th graders should have passed in the 10th grade, but those who didnt have to take it till they do pass or not graduate. I skipped school today, because if I had gone I would have been sitting in some random teachers classroom, one which I have no classes with nor even need to associate with since im in the magnet program and have a "special set" of teachers, (besides the fact she is a dumbass -_-) for 205 minutes. What would I have done if I had gone? Sat there very quietly and still either staring at a computer screen (which I found out were not even working today) or staring at the ceiling with my cd player ticking in my ears.
Now, I could have been in my classes doing something productive and learning but with FCAT I would have only gone to 2 of my classes, the same thing is going to happen tomorrow, but im going to breakfast with some friends then showing up later once FCAT is over. Its happening again next week on monday and tuesday as well, AND they have the balls to make 11th graders take science FCAT now... even tho we were promised since a very young age that we would be done with it after 10th.
I have my opinion, We shouldnt have to take them, and if they insist we do, then the 11th and 12th graders shouldnt have to go to school for the fcat half if we have already passed, since we cant go to our classes, that way we arnt wasting our time just sitting there... but like my teahcer told me..
If you want something done you need your parents to call or email in becuase what the teachers think and what the students think doesnt matter.
But think about it.. all of florida does this, so you would have ot have parents from everywhere complaining about the same thing to get rid of it, maybe we could get enough parents t ocomplain in my area so they will let 11th and 12th miss part of the day..but I doubt it..

the wisdom of cellphones
Does anyone else besides me realizes that these little ibts of technology are just a scam?
You pay major bucks to buy the actual phone
then shiz-load of money for the actual service
more money for added features 9like an mp3 player) that you alreayd payed for extra in the price of the phone
then it breaks easily
and the circle begins again...
..My phone fell maybe a foot onto a cement step... and now it wont connect to anyone when they call... it can fall from much higher places onto other stuff.. but that kills it.. I dont know .. its dumb.. -_-
I thought maybe it was the service... but it sends text messages just fine.. and it actualyl says its connected to the person.. I think I busted the speaker or something.. tho I dont think it works when its on the actual speaker.. and that works because I can hear the phone ring...
I have no idea!
side note: She Wants Revenge is at state theater and I didnt know.. I only know one song so it isnt a big deal..but now that I dont talk to luis alot (we talked more when were werent dating, the irony kills me too) I dont have anyone to inform me of these things!

Good afternoon all
The first post!
My boyfriend, Luis, was telling about the fact his friend was narking on yaoi fangirls. of course I take no offenece to this, I myself tend to make fun of my kind, however it was started on the notion that "how can a girl get off watching gay men have sex?"
I dont get off on yaoi... it just entertains me...
But now I cant think of what about it that does... it isnt a sexual thing... it just interests me maybe? I dont know
I can prove it isnt a sexual thing because seeing to real live men rather then anime men go at it kinda disguests me... I mean I dont mind them doing it... I just dont want to see it...
I cant put my finger on what it is exactly thats different... and why I enjoy it... (not sexually pervs!!)
I know I enjoy the fanfics for the drama suspence and love, the usual girly junk, and because many are very fantastically written.
Ah well... another one of those.. wtf-knows kinda things I guess...
