Double T: I've Hit Rock Bottom Once More

9:00 AM

I don't feel like writing a WTF Wednesday because nothing is more WTF worthy than my attitude towards life. Here is the thing, I've had three test today and I believe I failed all three of them. You don't understand, I just raised my AP Environmental Science grade to a 91% and now because of this midterm (WHICH BY THE WAY IS NOT EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEMESTER) could possibly drop to what I call the "death zone"... 88-89%.

You know why it's the "death zone"?? It's because it is super hard for you to raise it up and super easy to drop this percentage to a point where you can no longer raise it. I have a 88% in AP English and I raised my grade from a 88% in APES into 91%. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH EFFORT THIS TOOK?? I think school should grade everyone based on the amount of effort they put into studying. For example, I suck at every single subject possible but I put in the work, so I should get an A. It. Is. Literally. That. Simple. Why am I getting a B+ when someone who does not even try gets A+s.
Excuse me for being pissy. I don't want to complain about my Honors U.S. History class but I think I have to. In that class, yes I do have a 97% BUT today on the test. I got 3/30 correct for the fill in the blank part. She wanted us. To. Know. The "popular" cities in EACH STATE!! HOW DO I KNOW WHICH CITIES YOU CONSIDER POPULAR?? I CANNOT READ YOUR MIND!! It's not like only I failed but the rest of the class did too. In addition (wow look at me using fancy transition words), she didn't even tell us about knowing all the rivers and monuments AND YET SHE TESTED IT!! Excuse me while I go stab myself multiple times with a blunt fork. I want to improve but I think I don't put in enough effort. Why do I not put in the effort when I could? Because with all honesty, I don't care. With my grades and SAT scores right this second, I could get into UCSD guaranteed so why should I try? "I should try just because" is no longer a good enough reason for me to try in school. People go to school to learn, I go to school because I have to. Until next time, stay cool ma beans.

Relaxation Saturday: Getty Center

7:36 PM

Three day weekend, so let's take a trip to the Getty Center + Malibu. So I got up this morning at around 8:00 and got ready to leave for the museum. For today, I wore black leggings, a leather jacket, my gray T-shirt dress that I bought last week, and my black shiny boots. Last night I curled my hair, and everything was already prepared. I also bought this new Covergirl lipstick that is super moisturizing and since I am near the beach, I wore some sunblock. So that's my preparation. Once we got there, it was around 11, so I grabbed one of those museum information thingies that plays summaries of each of the artifacts. Yea one of those. So I walked around the museum for about 2 hours then I took a snack break and I drew a sketch of the garden. So this is where things get exciting... I know some of you guys have never been to CA let alone Malibu... I've only been there like three times... In movies, at Malibu is filled with beautiful blonde girls and guys who are super cute surfers that hangs out at the beach everyday, then on the street across, there are huge spaced out mansions in addition on to the expensive boutiques. Well today, I saw two hot blonde surfer guys, and some mediocre looking girls. The beaches are completely flat and the sand is filled with trash. The mansions are crowed on the hills next to the street that is lined with cars. The patrol officers there are extremely racist at least to me. Here is what happened, we stopped at one of the beach sides, and these two patrol officers rode on horses, and so my dad and I decided to go and take a picture with the horses. While taking the picture, my dad tried to make small talk with the officer, and he introduced himself and told her that he really liked horses because he is an artist. But since his English is kinda broken, she laughed and pointed and said, "I am the police!" *Insert fake laughter here.* Are you kidding me right now?? I speak English and I can understand you fully, and that is not okay. You should realize that as an authority figure, you have an image to uphold. You should definitely snicker at someone who is paying taxes that probably goes to your salary. Another thing "officer" how come when another family asked you for pictures you did not say anything?? I am ashamed to even have come in contact with you. So I got that off my chest... But then on the way back, I saw two lime green Lamborghinis... That doesn't really mean anything but that's still better than that last story. At the end, just don't drive alongside Highway 1 because you will be disappointed. Until next time stay cool ma beans.
