God, This Is Going To Be A Filled Post

Catching Up

First of all, I realize I have not mentioned on this blog that I did not make it into the Junior Boys Soccer team (better luck next year?). Second of all, I have joined the rugby team (which needs more grade eights or else we're playing against the grade nines). I had a really good practice today, and I think I'm going to enjoy rugby.

Another bit of news is that tomorrow there is a welcome back barbecue at Begbie and I might go. It sounds like a really good time. It will be cool to see some old friends and maybe meet some new people.

I've also started finally understanding web design and my next little side project is to redesign The Epicosity Guys site with my spare time. Most of my time will be spent on learning PHP and MySQL while also working on building the foundation for my company.

Unravelling The Spool Of High School

After spending a week or two at Alpha, I have discovered what really is important to most, if not all the students in a high school. Reputation. People build their high school lives on reputation. So what I'm saying is that without friends, you can't live a "happy" high school life.

Me? I don't really care about this. Reputation means nothing to me currently. If I somehow manage to salvage a reputation in Alpha, then I'll use the limited amount of power I have to turn the school around for the better. Be friends with all the "nerds" and "geeks" while spending minimal amount of time with the "popular" kids to maintain a good reputation.

But for now, I'm fine with the friends I've made.

Types Of People

In high school, you meet different types of people. You meet the nerds, geeks, bookworms, popular kids, the silent students, everybody. However, here are the types of people that I've noticed a lot.

The first person is the tool holder. This person flirts with the opposite gender and then uses the other person as a homework study tool or just for their own selfish needs. Then they throw the person away like a dirty rag and ignore it for the rest of their lives.

The second type of person is the conflicting personalities. This person focuses a lot in school and during class but fools around a whole bunch when it's not class time. I guess I'm kind of this person, but I do the fooling around almost all the time.

Well, Goodbye

I'm going to start getting ready for bed. Kind of weird that I spend about an hour getting ready for bed.

Anyways, I'm a 9 today. I'm feeling pretty good overall in life.
