For The "Worrisome"

What Is Going On Right Now?

Recently many friends have been somewhat "worrisome" about how I have been. I don't know if it's a difference in the way I act, because that just may be because I'm tired (swimming everyday) or because I simply just changed over the summer. So to all those friends who "worry", please don't.

If you want to know what is happening with me right now, then I'll explain. If not, just skip ahead to the next part.

As many people know, I took a Science 10 course during the summer for advanced credit. I passed the course with 96% and took the Provincial. I was planning to take AP Biology 11 this year, but it turned out that not enough people registered for the course, so it wasn't available. Eventually things happened and the next thing I knew, I got a call from my cousin saying that I was placed in the AP Chemistry 11 course and that my time table had been more or less rebuilt.

Apparently my new time table called for me to skip a grade in a few subjects, such as Math 9 and P.E. 10. My electives also got tossed around, but I got something that will be fun. I was signed up to challenge the Math 9 final exam near the beginning of the school year and everything seemed to be in order.

So the first day of school rolls around and I get my time table. And of course it's not the one that I got from my cousin.

It left me in an awkward situation where I had a pink slip (all those Alpha students should know), a pen I borrowed, and a bunch of courses that were supposedly changed. I met my counselor in Student Services where I found out I was to write the Math 9 exam the next day after school.

Of course I'm extremely stressed right now. I'm going to classes that I shouldn't be going to and I have absolutely no idea where I'm headed off to in the future. My Science 10 Provincial marks don't come out until Friday and the Math 9 exam (which I need 80% to advance to Math 10 Honours) I did today has yet to be marked.

To top it all off, there are small little things that even stress me out more. I can't take English 9 Honours because of Band 9 and now I've ended up in a linear English 9 which sadly is not Honours. Everything is just really a mess and I hope that it will all sort itself in the near future.

I guess this all is really just a slice of life.

Nothing Else...

I kind of promised that there would be more after this bit, but I'm just done with writing tonight. Hopefully I'll get an update on my Provincial and Math 9 soon enough and once I do I'll be sure to share whatever happens with you.

The last few minutes I have been trying to make a vector appropriate for this post, but I just couldn't find one that worked. So I'm sorry for no images in this post. I'll try to make some before I make a post. Today I am an 8. It was definitely an interesting first full day of school and I'm looking forward to seeing what this year will bring out of my friends and I.
