Time DOES tell!

In only two seconds after I submitted that last entry, time told me that I had forgotten to capitalize the first word. Time really does tell. Darnit, my Language Arts teachers were right all along. I hate to realize this, but it's out in the open. I actually do have to proofread. (GASP!)

I really had to swallow my pride to admit that. However, I can't get my pride back. It's stuck down there. Guess I'll have to get my stomach pumped.

Only time will tell...

finally, finally, finally, I've updated my page. I've also looked at my old entries and seen how...erm...dumb I was a while ago, especially during the 'depressed conversation' held with my friend semiquaver/pentameter.

Time really does tell. It's especially good at pointing out our mistakes.

The idiodicy of the world..

If you are reading this, you have probably read the title of this entry. And you probably have figured out that I will be saying bad stuff about idiots. So if you consider yourself to be an idiot, please do not read any further. Thank you.

Anyways, people in this world are really, really stupid. I sometimes am not very tolerant of stupidity, even though it would help me socially. (most people at my school are stupid.) I just have to say that stupidity bugs me. If people tried to learn, things would improve a lot. The fact that a certain person at school declared it 'National Hug Day' didn't help. Some stupid, idotic people went around hugging anyone and everyone. My friend is sort of not smart, but at least she didn't do much, but come on...National HUG Day???? Why can't it be 'National Classical Music Day,' or 'National GivethePoeticGryphonadollar Day,' or something interesting like that?

But, at least school is almost out because of the stupid budget cuts. Speaking of stupid, if George Bush hadn't invested so much money in our military affairs, I bet my state would have a lot less budget problems. Because of these, our teachers are even more frazzled than usual. We, the students are more stressed than usual. The band concert I'm in had to be moved to a very inconveinient night. My art class had to skip TWO WHOLE PROJECTS! This is NOT GOOD because art is one of the classes that actually stimulates my mind. We skipped ribbons, which was no gigantic loss, but does help with shape and perspective. We also are going to skip the final art project, which is painting a famous work of art on a shoebox. I am having problems with this because I even already had a picture in mind. GRRRRRRRR.

And everyone at school (pretty much) remained idiots and lived happily ever after. The end.

The Gryphon in decline...

The Poetic Gryphon is dying inwardly. She is going into withdrawl because her friends don't pay attention to her, her teachers tease her, and people she doesn't even know talk about her behind her back. She wants to move to alaska.

And something not helping any of this is the problem of her identity. Who am I, she asks herself, and what was I put here to do? She doesn't know who she is, where she wants to go, what she wants to do. And she cannot find herself. How poetic.

I was smart at my old school. Equal to Max the Genius. Then, when I moved up to this junior high, all of that changed. I AM as smart as him, but nobody thinks that. It's true, but nobody will listen. Maybe I should just shut up, sit down, and stop being smart. Is it worth it? I need a friend, a friend who will listen to me, who has time for me, who will help me get through this.

But nobody cares anymore.

Grades, grades, grades...

I'm going to fail math. I used to love math. In fact, I even like my math teacher. But I'm ready to declare war on chapter 11 of our math book. The problems are stupid. The test is stupid. In fact, the whole BOOK is stupid. And lastly, rational expressions are stupid. I got a 75 on the quiz, which is really bad for me, and now its the test and I am sure I am going to fail. GRRRRRRRRR. It's almost enough to make me go gothic or something. Almost. However, my gothic friend is so depressed that I don't think it would help.

And then, on Wednesday, there will be chapter 12. Pure bliss. I never thought I would say that I was glad to see a permutation, but I will be.

I need a mental vacation. A day out 'sick' to heal the mind, soothe the body, and have fun, which at the moment seems impossible. At least it's only 14 days till summer...
