I want to kill a guy in my English class.

Not only is he ugly (I'm not exactly shallow but the fact that he's unattractive, I must admit, only adds more to my intense irritation with him), he also cannot seem to tell when to keep his opinions to himself.

Example: We were watching a movie in English, and throughout the entire hour he was making snide, loud comments that the entire class could and did not want to hear. A girl told him to chill out multiple times, various people turned and stared and/or glared at him, and I told him to shut up and half an hour later shushed him.

Basically, he attempts to be funny and apparently finds himself so and therefore must share his great humor with everyone in his proximity.

He also has a disgusting habit of clearing the phlegm in his throat extremely loudly and consistently (about every 2 minutes) like a Chinese man who has never been educated. Actually, come to think of it, even the educated Chinese men hack lugis (however you spell it). It is absolutely horrid and nasty to hear and the minute the sound reaches my ears I feel dirty and on the road to getting terribly sick and infected.

And in my fit of anger and annoyance I will describe just how ugly he is...granted, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I usually do not rant about how unattractive people are seeing how the beauty industry is already bad enough without me helping it along, but I think everyone will agree with me on this one...He has scars on his face from either pimples or measles. His skin is always red and completely covered in zits. He wears glasses and he has lazy eye. His hair is umkempt and slightly dirty. His lips are the same exact color of his face and have a hopeless case of being chapped for eternity. And he also has bad fashion sense.

I am so mean.

I should really start college apps...........Sigh.

Meanwhile,

It appalls me how stupid people can be. My photography class is driving me nuts because there are just so many incredible idiots there. I'm literally surrounded. How will they make it in life? How do their parents cope with such stupid kids? And if their parents are as stupid as they are, how did they manage to be smart enough to get jobs that made enough money to send their kids to school in this neighborhood?

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Scared for Econ test tomorrow.

Our English homework for the past two days has been to write a flyting (boast) about ourselves, inspired by Beowulf, who, when meeting Hrothgar, shows off all his talents and skills.

Our requirements were to have heavy alliteration in each line, no end rhymes, include 2 kennings, and a caesura in each line (which she later took out, so that's why only the first half has caesuras in every single line). I'm actually kind of proud of mine.

Hail, H-2!
Gary is my guardian, Connie is my caretaker. I am
The soon-to-be savior of this sea of beasts;
Going green is my greatest goal. Also,
I am the player of piano, I chatter in Chinese,
I sing from the soul. Good grades and
AP tests are my triumph at a scholar’s home. Bravery,
Honesty, loyalty: these are virtues that I value
And possess. People perceive me as
Friendly yet fire-y, passive yet passionate,
Smart yet silly. My potential is prodigious,
The possibilities are perpetual, and
The future is bright and boundless.

I find it ironic that I have the most homework for zoology.
