it must be the madness

This year isn’t going to be as bad as I thought it was going to be. All of my teachers seem very nice and they seem like really good teachers, so I’m pretty excited for this year! Here’s the period-by-period rundown:

1. O’Brien kind of scares me a little bit sort of. He’s very intimidating and when he looks at you, it feels like he’s burning a hole through your head. He does, however, seem really interesting and I’m excited for his class!
2. Krishnamurthy seems really cool! She didn’t seem as tough as I had heard, and the class sounds very interesting. I like how she makes real-world connections and the demonstrations that she did today were really cool.
3. Independent Research sounds like an awesome class! Mrs. McAllister seems really nice, and I’m looking forward to picking my topic for this year.
4. I hate fourth period because it’s so long. And it’s math. But Mayer doesn’t seen as bad as people had said…she just seems a bit offbeat. As far as curriculum goes, however, I’m screwed. I didn’t remember half of the stuff that she had us do today….I haven’t taken Algebra since middle school! Plus, I sit with freshmen. :[
5. Yay for drama! I really missed that class over the summer. I really like the people in this class. It felt good to be back in the auditorium. Auditions for Father of the Bride are on September 11 in the auditorium. I’m excited! I’m still disappointed that Madrigals was scheduled that same period…we were missing a lot of cool people!
6. Dungey…where do I start? She doesn’t seem as crazy as people had said, but she seems really serious. But I’m not complaining; I get to sit with Ashley!

I have Spanish tomorrow, so I’ll tell you about that tomorrow night. Overall, this year seems like it’s going to be a lot of fun! I have a bunch of friends in my classes, and the teachers seem really cool. Yay for sophomore year (and not having to put up with Batenga being our dean)!
