Monkey Tree 2.0

I've decided to make myself a journal on this site. ^_^ This being my first entry, I should explain what has happened for the past few days I guess. Well here goes...

First off I should start off with my academic situation. In my school, you need atleast four credits to pass the year. I am only failing two classes right now, AP Us History and Health. Health is a half credit and History is a full credit. Seeing as how I am in my second year of highschool, I already have five and a half credits. For highschool, you need a minimum of twenty credits to graduate. Seeing as how I am failing two classes miserably, I have to focus on only one if I hope to go on to my junior year. I decided to focus on History for three reasons. Reason one being that if I pass history and not health, I will have a total of ten credits for my highschool career which keeps me on the four year plan. The second reason is that I want to do the second year of the history course in my junior year. The third reason is that my history teacher is notorious for passing people if they try their hardest which I am acually doing. So anyways, during the middle of the week I was supposed to present an oral report. However, I had lost my notes and basicly freaked out because without those notes I would get a zero and effectively fail the class and my sophomore year. Luckily I found the notes thursday morning and was able to present. Friday morning I found out that there was another of such reports due in history class (seventh period) so me being me I managed to get enough notes to do such a good report that the teacher even said it was very informative. ^_^ Go me!

Now on to the social world. I am thoroughly pissed off at my father, because he was supposed to send money so that I could take driver's education and get my license. Now the state legislature has changed the law and I must wait until I am eighteen before I can get my license. -_- Last friday was the night of the last big dance of the year. I really  wanted to go, but my parents asked me to stay home to baby sit my brother in exchange for twenty bucks. I agreed because let's face it, I'd do anything for twenty bucks XD Well when the time came for my parents to leave, they changed their minds. Thus I lost my chance at money and missed the dance. I was pissed to the precipace of being pissed and my parents yelled at me. Friday was definately not a good day. My friend/cousin kept telling me he was moving to his mother's house which is around a hundred miles away and I later found out he was just bullshitting as usual. But I still made some money Saturday morning by helping my grandmother do some yard work.

And now for the music report! ^_^ Dead Season is once more playing at the battle of the bands in Skowhegan and I intend to go. Also, I am attending Ozz Fest this summer. I was surprised my parents agreed to it. Now I just need to get money for the tickets. XD I can't wait!

This ends my very first journal entry.
