we had this 'you're-a-figure-from-the-enlightenment-attending-a-salon-forget-the-anachronism-let's-party' thing in euro that was for quiz grade. needless to say, 60% of what happened was hobbes and locke arguing with each other

hobbes: why are people corrupt?
locke: because society corrupts people. the imposition of society!
hobbes: and where does this corruption come from?
locke: it comes from - uhhhh - ahhh - errrr
hobbes: people, hm?
locke: .... i'm going to piss on your cat, frank.

um what the jesus?

apparently, when it comes to administrative leadership in organizing, directing, inspiring, pisd has failed pretty hard.
apparently, we're worth fifty bucks to pisd?
apparently, some chick ratted out a bunch of druggies (actual confirmation on whether or not they were druggies) for seven hundred bucks?
apparently, everyone hates her?
apparently, this happened at jasper?
apparently, now on thursday, we're protesting with red?

man, i have the worst timing ever when it comes to being sick.

YUP, STILL THE SECOND BEST PLACE TO HAVE A CHILDHOOD, GUYS. YUP.

[09:09] Planoneck: some girl at jasper ratted out these druggies

[09:09] Bloo Nachos: and everyone wore a trash bin on their head to school the next day
[09:09] Bloo Nachos: that's not fun ):
[09:10] Planoneck: it's to express their disapproval of her
[09:10] Planoneck: which makes no fucking sense

Stanton discussing Whitten's Flowchart of Wonder: "Biology and Chemistry would've been easy in the Middle Ages. All the answers would be God."

THIS IS FUNNY BC WE ACTUALLY LEARNED ABOUT ALCHEMY IN CHEMISTRY YESTERDAY.
i know: what.

european history

"tomorrow, we'll learn about the dutch golden age."
"YES"
"....."
"i like the dutch"


wat else

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

we learned about epicurisusdjsdjsdfggf in chemistry, today.
plano isd, you are super

we had stuco rep elections today.
let me tell you what happened.

morgan gets up. no one cares.

chris gets up.
"uh, morgan's a girl, and louis's a racist. VOTE FOR ME." he sits down.

LOL LOUIS IS FRENCH OBV HE IS RACIST

louis gets up. "vote for me, because i am not racist, and will represent the jasper football team."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAA

louis won.
i hate our school.

We're learning about post-reformation Europe. (Which reformation? The Protestant one - oh, and the catholic counter reformation. why did you capitalize the "p" in protestant and not in the "c" in catholic? are you biased? no, i'm lazy.)

so, obv, mr. stanton unleashes his new joke (perfected all summer), with the usual vomit-inducing effects (much like phenalpthalein, except, it's coming from your mouth).
"If you are ~*baroque, then you ain't got no ~*monet. And if you ain't got ~*monet, then you can't make the ~*van gogh."

HORRIBLE, RIGHT?
but so endearing.

oh, and ms. lopez (our new mr. stanton. i don't care, i hate my life) gave us a david letterman style presentation.
"10 reasons you should be in humanities"
when it got to the end, it was no longer funny, but sordid and pathetic in how much it epitomized my life (4. "Carpal tunnel!"... 8. "I don't have a life and neither do I want one."  9. "I don't care about the GPA at all!" )

i know they say sophomore year is loads better than freshmen year, but fuck that shit - no, it's not.

what am i talking about.

why

from, like, near the end of school;


SIGH this is like two blocks down from where my house was/Rice was. 
SIGHH the kid who did this bragged about it to like virtually everyone. I think we flooded the news' inboxes with, "Holy shit, I know the kid who did this."
SIGGGGGHHHHHH
our school, mang,
so seriously fucked up OTL

THESE MOVIES?
WE'RE WATCHING ALL OF THEM (I FUCK YOU NOT) ONCE I GET BACK

BEST WAY TO CATHARSE THE FRICK OUT OF JASPER BEFORE TENTH GRADE

HALLLEEE YEAHHHHHH

&LMAO MOTHERFUCKERS THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME I USE THE TAG LIFE IS NOT THAT BAD

ALSO 
STOP CUTTING FUNDING FOR THE ARTS
IT CREATES DICTATORS AND FASCISTS
SOB

IS THIS FREEDOM? I LOBE YOU AMERICA ONE ONEONE BINARY SOLO

ALSO NOTE
if i was ever to get high/drunk, I have already enlisted taylor as my buddy bc we would have the best discussions intoxicated (i mean lmao at our conversations while sane). taylor should get his own tag, like mackenzie.

Back when we were going over the effects of the cultural/intellectual/ideological/artistic renaissance (oh, sorry, the Renaissance) in Italy on northern Europe, I remember reading about how France toned down its architecture from the overindulgent style of Gothic architecture (details, details, details everywhere) to incorporate classical accessories (corinthian columns go here), whereas stanton mentioned in class about how France was just style-style-style-details flapping brazenly in the wind
and
we went from there
to discussing how France set itself up for the revolution

I
OUR CLASS IS (JASPER IS NOT YOUR REALITY NOW) WAS SO FULL OF DIGRESSIONS 
oh god orz we never finished the germany/italy/et al powerpoint from the middle ages because we were telling sloth jokes

idk why am i reminiscing
because i don't want to review this textbook and my notes

 

( hetalia art orz )

hahaha i love doing doodles 8U
comment with a doodle request hahaha? * U *
I'D PREFER HETALIA BC I AM IN LIKE NO FANDOMS ORZ

Uh, trust me. I have friends that said in other schools, outside of Plano, they actually got to concentrate on learning the material instead of taking test after test.

Face it, Jasper just doesn't suck, PISD really does.

I mean honestly, I hate the school, and will never miss it.
The administration (cept for Grant Johnson's mom the registrar she rocks) is so bad. The principals bully, they just care about enforcing petty rules that are unimportant, and the counselours prevent me from taking APs.

What kind of school forces my friend to take an exam he should be exempt for just because he had to go to his grandmother/grandfather (yes both of them at the same time)'s funeral in China for 4 days? I mean really, is that a good school Taylor?

The teachers are not understanding. They only take their class into importance. Even my best friends who plan amazingly, still have late nights because teachers fail to give warnings in advance.

The GPA whoring is insane. It's gotten to the point where we define other people's intelligence by a number. It's so unnecessary, schools in New England that consistently outperform us have adopted better strategies.
Honestly, if it weren't for the friends I made, Jasper would have sucked.
Then again, it seems as every year passes, there seem to be more and more GPA whores.

That's okay, you guys might be able to calculate differential equations in your head, but you'll never be able to slow dance. Or to go mountain climbing. Or get a decent job, because you're going to just be a run of the mill doctor, or in a cubicle.

Plano, Jasper, it just sucks away the life from people. School shouldn't be the focal point of our existence. It should be a supplement.

As my good friend Dr. Lirot says, "I'm smarter than a number. What I do, shouldn't just be assigned a numerical value based on it's intrinsic worth. Because all in all, that's just communist; dividing everything up based on numbers, and failing to take into account human factors."

But school's a socialist institution anyways.

hell, if viggy agrees with me.
on a completely unrelated note:

obama - "assalamu alaikum" FUCK YOU I LEARNED THAT FROM OZ
by you, i mean everyone who had to google that.

Hitler's birthday
Columbine shooting
Pot Day
Earth Week

anyways, it started Friday at 12:30 PM, and I came home at 12:15 AM Sunday.
holy fuck, i know right? I watched wall-e, the incredible hulk, iron man, charlie and the chocolate factory, the mummy III (crazy chinese olympics exploitation shit), and the dark knight on the charter bus, ate way too much food, and had like 71 bucks from the contest lmao
