Holy crap, I haven't written for a long time!

I'm writing this in my little lazy phase between when I finish everything I need to do for the night and when I need to start getting ready for bed. I think it's probably because I really hate living in rituals and getting ready for bed is just one big nightly ritual. So I kind of never want stop procrastinating and get my butt up and start brushing my teeth and washing my face and all that jazz. So instead of doing what I probably should be doing and going to bed early like I need to be doing, I'm going to update this poor excuse for a weblog.

School started this week. Or last week. Whatever. It started Wednesday. This school year is going very smoothly. Maybe a bit surprisingly smoothly. I write mental blog entries in my head sometimes and since I've been searching my brain for ideas of what to right about on this site, I thought about writing about the upcoming school year. In my imaginary blog entry, I would come home from another same-old day at school and write about how I'm a nervous, anti-social wreck who can't talk to anybody and how I hate school so much and blah blah blah.

It's not really like that this year, though. I am still kind of insecure and I don't talk to anybody at all, but I think I'm a bit more comfortable with my surroundings. I'm not the hopeless, depressed, scared person that I was so much of last year. At least I hope that I'm not or that I will become that way as the school year progresses.

The majority of my classes are interesting this year. I guess that's one of the benefits of being a senior. The classes aren't so schooly and they're actually interesting. As courses are getting more specific, we're getting into more meaty, satisfying subjects. I scanned through my Evolution textbook, and some of it is really fascinating. The only class that I haven't warmed up to so far is math. I think it's basically because we started out by learning about bar graphs and stem and leaf diagrams and nothing is more boring than bar graphs and stem and leaf diagrams.

Seniority has is benefits as well in that I can leave whenever all of my academic requirements are fulfilled for the day. I have study hall and lunch the last few periods of the day so instead of staying I can just be like, "Yo, I'm leaving" and go. So..... yeah. I'm kind of glad that I can start my school year blogging on a positive note and not on a tragic, morbid, teenage cliché note. Ta-da!
