President's Week.

Academically, FML. I think Skyline is most definitely the answer to all my problems.
I'm really grateful though, I know I won't be alone when I go there for the summer, there's alot of people from Adams and Collado's Algebra II Classes that are going to Skyline. &For Chemistry, it's mostly people who have Leet. I really like his class, especially doing the labs but I can't stand his tests and homework quizzes. Bottom line, fuck algebra 2 and fuck chem. I wish I took physics, &I wish they woulda divided algebra 2 into 2 parts like how they divide geometry and algebra and b.

Ugh, well, those are my first two classes, as for Ms. Raley's class, I made an alliance with a few, "Stay constant at a C &keep cheating on tests." &Guess what? Ms. Raley called me a midget, and I told my mom and my mom wants me to tell Mr. Reyes. I heard if you do something like that, you might actually go to court maybe get to win money if you win your case! Easy money for prom &to help my parents pay for the bills? Sure why not, Ms. Raley doesn't even know my name. US History's been okay. From fourth period to the end of the day, is when I actually keep up with my classes. Mr. Harmon's class is pretty good. No matter how irritating some people are. Web Design? Oh, I like that class too, I'm really keeping up. Despite the times I unblock myspace x_x. &English? I LOVE ENGLISH! Praise God I have Ms. Baba. She's probably been my favorite teacher this year. I'm so happy she didn't give our class away to her student teacher. FTW!

Oh and guess what, the only reason why my gpa is "decent" is because I have EIGHT classes. Thank you Lord for Service Commission & ASB, they're not easy A's but I can proudly say I worked extra hard to earn them. Especially for ASB, no matter how secretly miserable I am about the class. I know I worked hard. I sold Winterball tickets, made signs, flyers, promoted extra hard, blah blah blah, I think you should already know. Yeah. Service Commission? Squeezed in a few volleyball games, a prayer meeting with the Thomasians, back to school night, &whatever else happened. YAY (: bottom line, I love my electives, my life and my faith and I hate my academics.

Senior Year? I pretty have my schedule set, almost. I'm hoping for English honors and AP Gov because my teachers think the normal classes were a little easy for me? Ack. Those two, plus percussion, foods, and my mom wants me to TA. I don't know who exactly for, and maybe physcology or Stats, depends on my mood? ayiah!

So college? I've decided on SDSU, SJSU, SFSU, CSU East Bay, Sacramento and Fullerton. UC Riverside &Merced, maybe SC then CSM, CCSF, and Skyline. As for private colleges, I'm pretty set with NDNU and Dominican. Since I hate this damn economy so much, I'll probably go junior college then transfer. That reminds me? In my old xangas posts, I remember talking about my 18th birthday plans, yeah, again, this stupid economy messed it up! Instead of getting a brand new car, I have to use my dad's old one. '99 Limited Toyota 4Runner. It's grimey as fuck, because my dad keeps all his tools and crap in it. Man, another promise my parents broke.. AGAIN. Ugh, first off, no cotillion was one thing, then having a house party was another, but breaking a promise about a car just irritated me. Back on the college thing, I really wanna move out. I love my parents and all, but ever since all these financial problems have been growing, I think it's best that I move out, one less person in our house hold. I don't wanna live so far away from them, because home is where the heart is, and I don't wanna be so far away from my JAC Fam. Oh yeah, this economy, really screwed me over, and my family, and so many people. Prom is such a drag, especially since, tickets are expensive. Ick. &then theres the whole dress &tux situation, and so much more.

As for my faith, it's been a roller coaster, I miss going to JAC Prayer meetings. Honestly, I guess that's why I used to be so calm and collected on those Monday mornings. Now, I'm a mad bitch >:[. Okay, yeah. sure. I really need to pray more plus work out a little bit.

"Lord I'd like to lift up to you my academics, may you send down your wisdom and grant me patience in learning, &may I be able to retain more. I wanna lift up to you all my burdens, especially all my stresses, Lord. I wish they can all go away. Lord I'd like to lift up to you mine & my family's financial burdens, maybe you take it &turn it into a positive outcome. &I'd like to lift this up in Your most name, amen."
I heard God answers prayers. &that he can take all your burdens.

God bless! <3clarissa.

Story of My Life.

On xanga, because no one from Westmoor rarely uses it. Except for the people I just found, Edy, Jordan, Victoria .. list goes on. I really was uncertain about whether or not I was gonna blog, especially since there's been alot going on right now. I should really be doing homework, but instead..

School. You ruined my life. Justkidding. Junior Year. Wow, I still remember being a freshman. No lie. I remember crying my first day of high school and hiding in the bathroom, because I didn't want to face my mom. I was so intimidated. I remember being the kid known as "Ms. Lico's daughter." I remember having so many upperclassmen watching out for me because I was so naive. I hate to admit, but I still am. I'm prone to it. Second semester of junior year, is murdering me. I won't lie, SATs, ACTs, college campus talks. I feel the pressure. Most importantly, I feel the competition. I hate how, when I was younger, I thought I was going to be a pediatrician, and I was gonna be a very successful person, but as I grew older, I felt competition, and distractions came my way.

...&this is the part, where I have to study for chem AND algebra II, the SUICIDAL classes. Or I'm screwed.

"with something to think about, this is your class of 2010 president, clarissa calimbas.. make it a great day or not, the choice is yours."

goodnight<3
