the avoidance of homework

alright, i really should be doing my homework instead of blogging, but i haven't blogged in a couple days, so i guess it's okay. we took another long boring test today, except it was timed, covered all subjects (well; reading vocabulary, reading comprehension, mathematics, mathematical procedures, spelling, literature, science, and social studies) and took up the whole day except for 9th period. so yeah, it was boring, and it means i have less time to work on my homework (though i am blogging right now instead of doing so.) although truth be told, most of my friends have already finished this homework, so i'm going to assume i can get it done easily.

not much else is happening in real life, except for the approach of summer, which i greatly look forward to. to my happiness, i have started posting on starless (that warriors roleplay site) more and i also am a part of a warriors roleplay one of my real-life friends has started (hey, there was something else happening in rl. go figure.)

well, i... finished posting on starless, so i guess i'll conclude this post and go do my homework. and it's (only) 5:50. alright!

well, we finished up taks week. pretty easy. course, we still have final exams the last week of school. but the only one i'm really concerned about is algebra, and if it's anything like the practice exam we took, i'm pretty sure that i can ace it. and the great thing is, the amount of homework will just decline rapidly over the next few weeks. although there may be a couple projects. like this villanelle poem i'm doing - well, supposed to be doing. c;

we had a book fair this week at school in the library. being a bookaholic, i bought four books, spending about forty five dollars. unfortunately, i've already read them all. my mom is really grateful for libraries, for otherwise we'd have to buy even more books. i mean, my parents are solid readers too, but... anyways. :P I tend to read around one or two average-length books per school day, although this sometimes gets me in trouble. i'm not trying to brag here; i can just read really fast.

well, i have to go to sleep now; got an algebra AND a science test tomorow. bai!

nothin to lose!

Tests

I hate it when teachers give us our grade for a test but we don't actually get the test back. Today, for instance. I got an 86 on my recent algebra test, but my teacher didn't actually give us our tests, so I have no idea what I got wrong. This bugs me. I would rather have to wait and be on the line about what my grade was than know my grade but not know what I missed or why I missed it. I know I'll get the test back soon, but I wish my teacher could've just made us wait a little while longer. It's even worse with some benchmarks and the TAKS (Texas Assesment of Knowledge and Skills) test, which is the annual state testing here in you guessed it, Texas. On these benchmarks and the TAKS test, we get our results, but we never find out what questions we missed, what we did wrong. This bugs me big time, although normally I get a 100 or close to a 100 on the TAKS.

Also- 9 comes out tomorrow! I'm so excited, since my dad's not working today and as long as I don't have much homework, I'll probably get to go! Of course, this is assuming that the tickets aren't sold out, but since it's a Wednesday, I think we'll be fine. ^-^
