Fun-ness

Yeah... starting at a new school, your junior year of high school is such fun. I mean that half sarcastically, and half honestly.

My old school had 500 people. My new school has 2100. I suprisingly haven't gotten lost yet (not including sprinting around the school in the dark this past saturday in search of the janitor...).

The most receptive group of people so far has definetly been my new FIRST team. They're great. Mostly younger than me, but still awesome people. We had set-up for RiverRage this past Friday night, and then competition all day Saturday. So I got to see a lot of my new FIRST friends. It was fun. Especially making a soccer ball size duct tape ball.

The best of all my classes is AP Physics. Dudes, I love that class. Where else can you run down the hall with a yardstick, chasing a wind up car, and hitting it. And where else can you jump off chairs. And what class gets to go to Six Flags?!!!!??? Physics rocks!

The worst of my classes is Pre-Calc. It's a non-practical class. Ugh. Hate that type. The only time I'm stranded with out a calculator and I'm doing math is when I'm tipping someone! And that's easy!

But yeah, thats my first week. I'm still trying to figure out school rules. And where to sit at lunch. Being shy is a problem, huh?
