First Impressions of a Senior

Since I've already seen like two blogs like this, I might as well.

Hmm...I gotta say. This years classes I'm really lookin forward to. Chill teachers, chill classes, probably the first year the school didn't give me a crappy schedule and gave me all the classes I wanted (Almost). So here goes:

1st Period : Film as Literature w/ Ms. Jones. Who could resist the idea of WATCHING MOVIES instead of reading stories for English class? Not only that, Ms. Jones is an awesome teacher, even if she may talk a lot.

2nd Period : Multimedia Production w/Coach Muster. Fooling around with Macs on the first days? How cool is that? The work is easy and its stuff that I WANT to learn. As Mr. Muster said, its all about the toys. He's really lenient toward the students too!

3rd Period : Filipino 2P w/ Mr. Agustin. Funny story. Walked in on the first day of school, and the first person I see is Joanna. As we're walkin and talkin, we see some Filipino dude walk into the Filipino classroom and we're like, "wheres Manansala??" Later on, we find out he switched with Hogan and is now teaching Biology and our Filipino class has about 77 people. That was just crazy. So Ms. Points comes in and starts taking people, huffing and puffing, and saying "I'll be back!" Well, I managed to be in a house of bricks so I stayed in the class. Hmm...I don't know what to expect from this class yet. But I do have my best friend, my little sis, Shanye, and Julian in this class so this is bound to get interesting.

4th Period : Advanced Band w/ Mr. Smith. Only class I didn't ask for, but I'm still cool with it. I actually wanted Jazz, but then I realize that with all the stuff I'm doing this year, I donno if I could add Jazz on top. Hell, I'm even section leader this year! Mr. Smith is the same as usual, but he's expecting more and more every year because he knows we can handle it. HAWAII THIS YEAR!!!!!

5th Period : Economics w/ Mr. Henley. Maybe the class may not be as interesting, but the teacher sure as hell will make it interesting. I've heard good things about Henley, but also some things about how much work he makes you do. And according to him, its all true. "Balanced" as he says. Plenty of people I know in this class and hopefully, they'll be willing to help me keep my grade straight in this class. Its the classes with alot of work that I need support in. You know how I am with homework. Speaking of which, I still need to do mine....

6th Period : Video Production w/Coach Muster. Hey, I got him twice a day! So I got to hear is intro twice, and play with the Macs twice. But also for this class, me and Jarret are gonna be treated like Video 2P students because we're already interns at VCAT. (I knew it would come in handy someday!) So if I ever need to, I can skip 6th and go to VCAT, which is seriously, in the same dam building. I'm gonna live in that building now!


That just about covers everything. I'm so glad I got these classes and teachers because, even though I may not be overloaded with work from AP classes, I'm gonna be overloaded with extra curricular activities. Senior year looks like its gonna be one hell of year! And I don't plan on letting that assumption down!!!
