So I got my test score back for Social Studies and I'm pretty happy. I got a 100 on my EOT and my teacher really scared me because he said, "You need to study harder" before he gave me the test as a joke. Then, when I saw the 100 I started laughing and breathing really hard because I was so happy for myself. Unfortunately, I already know I didn't honor roll because I probably didn't get above an 80 on ELA and Math. All my other subjects I definitely did but that's because those were a little bit easier than the main subjects. That's why in term two I am ready to get Honor Roll and won't give up until I get my certificate. Last year I barely got honor roll since 2 of my grades were 80 and 81.

 That is right on the marking point and if I didn't do a single homework assignment or quiz I probably would've gone down. But for some reason I feel like my teachers purposely saw my grade and tried to help me. It just aggravates me, knowing that was a possibility. And I only reached above an 85 average because my Social Studies was a 98. This term I want to get at least 5 points above most of my subjects. Spanish is not my concern even though it was in the past. This is because I know that I got a 100 in Spanish this year since I did all of the work. My teacher is pretty laid back and as long as you do the work she won't fail you.

 Believe me, I don't understand half of the things she says but I can at least get past the classwork with my trusty google translator (she doesn't mind the translator because otherwise we'd have no chance in completing the work). This really makes me happy because my chances in passing without google fall way down below 80, believe me. Well, umm I totally have other things to talk about. During Math we are starting a new lesson and I am really paying attention. 

The reason I was doing bad in the first term was because my seating arrangement. I was always in the back so my teacher didn't see me at all. I barely ever participated and he still doesn't even know how to correctly say my name. However, I can't blame him because there are a ton of kids in this school. I used to be confused with 2 other asian boys during P.E class. My teacher just couldn't tell the difference from far apart. I had the same haircut as the both of them and we all had glasses. But now it's changed because the first kid still has the same hairstyle but different glasses. 

And the second person has the same hairstyle as me (as of right now). but his glasses are green and smaller than mine. Because I have a pretty above average size head we can be told apart easier. This is more because of just how many kids there are in this school. Now my teacher had a serious talk with us about how if we want to leave this class we can leave because everyone has their own strengths, my only problem is that if I leave this class I also leave the advanced ELA class and although that will make things much easier for me I won't be able to talk to any of my friends as much as I wanted to and it will look bad on my portfolio if I "drop out". It's a hard decision and I'm still thinking.
