This weekend was like an epic study moment session where I just spent all of my time just practicing for the ELA EOY, the Math EOY, and the Social Studies debate. Those were the three things that really got me and were the ones that I spent the whole weekend on. I was able to basically complete everything on Sunday but that was after I finished studying on Saturday. I got a 96 on my Grammar EOY and afterward I needed to go ahead and finish studying for the Math EOY but it was so hard because I didn't know what exactly to study even though he gave me a list. 

And when I took the test today there were no piecewise functions and that was something that I spent quite a lot of time studying for. Instead it was a couple of random stuff like how to find the compound interest of a problem and the symmetry of a weapon. I got a 96 on the Grammar EOY so that'll really help my grade but then I need to go ahead and get a good grade on my EOT for writing and then my EOT for my reading comprehension and narrative. 

Anyways, I went with my father outside to McDonalds for breakfast because of the fact that he wanted to take me outside and I didn't wanna eat home anyways. But I wanted to have a study session with my friends because of the fact that we were all talking about it the day before. 

For breakfast I just ordered from food which was a bagel and egg sandwich and a vanilla milk-shake which was very tasty but hard to digest at first. My dad had some food all to himself but didn't eat the two sandwiches for about 10 minutes because of the fact that he was so occupied on his phone for that whole time. 

But it didn't really matter because he ate everything in like 5 minutes and I still hadn't taken more than 3 bites on my bagel egg sandwich. Once we ate our food the two of us stayed on our phones for like another 20 minutes before we went to Lincoln park and exercised and got our bodies a bit stretched. But I wasn't that excited because I was wearing actual shorts (not basketball shorts), and I had vans on (which are not exercise shoes at all). 

For today’s post I am just going to be talking about my ring ceremony because nothing else happened for me to talk about on this post. My day started off with me eating some muffins that my mom bought from the supermarket for breakfast at school. That way I some source of fuel before I took the test and probably fell asleep. Afterwards, I went ahead and took the test with the rest of my class and it was honestly not even that bad. 

The science test doesn’t even count because of the fact that it is just so recent and this was the first year that they were ever implementing it. I don’t get why they don’t do a. Social studies one, oh wait, because social studies is like geography and a lot of reading and that is just way too much. Unless they did like only comprehension questions which I would easily be able to do. Lemme skip tot he 5th period because that is when class actually started cause the whole morning we just took this huge test. 

Once it was over my class went over to tech where we just played games on the computer because the teacher was putting a movie on for everyone. It was pretty chill and once that was over the teacher took us back into the middle school building and it was time for lunch. I didn’t eat anything because for this lunch period I was going to go inside my tracer’s classroom and study for the test that we were having today because that was probably the most important thing. I am not doing well in math and this test could really bring my grade up if I just get a good grade in it.

 If I can get at least an 80 that would be a nice boost on my grade. And my teacher still didn’t put the khan for the other work like he was suppose to do so I could be getting some nice points. Also I remember my teacher when I was in a parent teacher conference with him and my dad, he was saying that there is like no point in recess and that’s it’s better spent studying for tests/math or just other work that I haven’t finished. 

So I wanna set a good impression and show him that I’ve learned from that. I answered every single question on that test and I know the test is going to be worth a lot because it is a topic test and I’ve only taken 2 other tests like that this term. Anyways, the rest of my day was just science and all we did was watch a movie about genetics and the process of the body. 

Today was a pretty chill day to e completely honest. The first period was music and I walked into the class and the teacher let me eat my breakfast because my bus came a little bit late so I wasn't able to eat after putting all of my stuff away into my locker. I thought that this was nice of my teacher and I made sure to let her know I appreciated her for letting me do it. Afterwards, for music class we were just watched a movie that we had been watching for the past couple of days. 

The movie is a musical about a man who was put in prison for false pretenses and then came back to London and found out that his wife had killed herself because she was forced to be with a man who put her husband in prison and now that same man has the protagonist's daughter and wants to marry her. So it is up to the protagonist to rescue his daughter and be with her again after many years. The movie is honestly really good and there are a couple of really funny scenes even though most of it is just tense and serious. And although. lot of the songs are really sad and depressing they for some reason really sync with my taste and I like them a lot. 

Once music class was over the teacher let us go to ElA class and I met with a couple of my other classmates as we were going to be reviewing and finishing up any classwork that was due the day before. I was really mad at my teacher because she hasn't been in the school for almost a month and a week and the substitute has been staying with us for ELA and making sure that we do our work. But it is so much faster if we just have our regular teacher to go ahead and tell us what to do instead of posting it on the stream and if we don't get anything it'll take a whole day before she responds to us and tells us what to do or replies. 

Finally, it was time for Math and I was so ready to start studying for the EOY which is next Monday but apparently, that isn't going to be the case because he just told us everything that we needed to study for and then let us talk for the rest of the class until it was time for Community Circle. I mean I get the fact that there was only 40 minutes and no way to review everything, let alone more than 2 problems but it would've helped to specify more and stuff. 

And this test could really help me with my grade and that would honestly be really beneficial to me. Community Circle was next and the teacher just let us off and said that we were going to be watching some of the students do their play about Annie (musical) and afterwards we would do student of the month and finish it off with there. And that was basically my whole day. 

Today I took the science test that my teacher did not give us a review and time to study for. This test was honestly something that was very important for me and I just could not finish it in time. I had one more question for the final 2 minutes and it felt like complete hell. I didn't even know that we had the test today and I was so surprised because of it. The teacher told us that it was going to be on Thursday and yet I come this morning to find out that the test is going to be today?

 ye, no, there was no way I was prepared for that. But anyways, after the test my teacher said that we were going to be having a math test and I was just so surprised because I had forgotten it was today. I would've gotten around an 80 positive but it was still really worrisome because I didn't know what could possibly happen. Thankfully, my teacher said that since we only had 30 minutes he wasn't going to let us take the test. 

And then for the next 20 minutes he made everyone get a little lecture about how there are only a couple more days left of school and that the kids who were failing or close to failing need to pick up the pace and work really hard to bring their grade up. I was kind of motivated by this speech and afterwards I had social studies. Now in social studies my teacher somehow took a joke about roasting someone's hair to talking about racism and how people were oppressed and shunned by getting their hair cut off. 

Honestly the lesson was really truthful and serious but I was just in astonishment cause he took hair and turned it into racism. I just thought that was kinda funny is all, and he always makes jokes about it, not in a bad way but like he says stuff sarcastically and doesn't mean it. 

One time he called a girl overweight and "Big" and the girl got really embarrassed and started crying but then he went ahead and said it was sarcastic and that he didn't really mean it and that everyone should've listened to what he said. I still thought that if he knew we were going to be thinking like this then why make the joke, or at least explain first. Anyways, that's all for today's post.
