@apandia yeah lol. It was about a daughter meeting her mother (who had given her up as a child) for the first time. Not very original. But most of my “short stories” are parts of novels I’ve given up on, and I can’t find a way to add closure to them. This was one of the three short stories I’ve written. The other two were graphic, so I didn’t want to submit them.
This is why I prefer poetry.
Hmmm okay I guess I’ll do it! Wow that sounds lovely!

Our flags for our winterguard show this year are 1) really really really sparkly silver-black, and 2) flames.
They look really, really cool, especially since everything else in our show (save a volcano-thingy) is black.
This person doesn’t believe I’m 15 because because it seems that I don’t speak “like I=a 15 year old should”
HELP!!! Last year, I was in band with this awesome director, then he moved schools. We got this new band teacher and I decided to volunteer my time to be in Pep Band. Anyways, she basically guilts me and forces me into this independent study period with her (she has done it to multiple other people) in which we come after school once a week and practice. Anyways she says she’s doing this only in the condition that we join band next year (which makes no sense because I didn’t even want to be in it in the first place.) I have been trying to drop hints at her that I won’t be taking band next year but she is so psychotic and delusional she just doesn’t get it!! I talked to my counselor and told her I don’t want to be in band but this psycho teacher came up to me yesterday and says she’s so excited because she talked to my counselor and she is not only going to try to make my schedule work for band but she wants to add a second music class there too. I don’t know if she gets it but there are required classes for me to take too lol. I had my whole schedule planned out too and this lady literally ruins everything. I don’t want to say I hate band because of her to her face but I do. Anyways I hope it doesn’t work on my schedule, but let’s say it does… What should I do?? Do I just say to her face get out my face?? I don’t want to hurt her feelings but she is a psycho freak.
@Calchong You’ll have to be honest with her. You can say you don’t want to do band without placing the blame on her so she doesn’t feel like it’s her fault. Just tell her that you’re focusing on your studies or something. It’s much better just to tell her the truth and risk offending her than to be stuck doing something you don’t like every day for a year.
I have no school today, Monday, or Tuesday, yeehaw!
We don’t have school Monday, but we do have school Tuesday.
I’ll be wearing all black on Valentine’s day 
Ain’t nobody got time for pink.
Does anyone have Organic Chem for seniors in his or her high school?
No, but organic chem is taught as part of the regular and AP chemistry courses.
My school is getting an Organic Chemistry class this year @1LuckyBrave
They have it at my school, and I am planning on taking it senior year @1LuckyBrave
TSA TEAMS competition in a week! I’m so not looking forward to that…
We had our first winterguard competition yesterday and won first! There were a lot of individual mistakes, but we actually looked pretty good as a unit. And we creeped everyone out.
@topaz1116 Congratulations! Do you have a video? (I’d like to see how creepy it is.)
@The5458Captain I’ll PM you it.
I know many of you guys have been following this thread since it was made… can you all believe we’re going to be juniors already?
@picuberoot I’m already getting so much work just this year…and next year will definitely be worse. But, yeah, it’s hard for me to believe I’ll be a junior soon. I still distinctively remember my first day of freshman year.
@Faultystart My course load hasn’t been that bad, mostly because my school’s block scheduling means I have a long time to do homework and study. I honestly don’t know how people who have to go to every class every day survive.
I get far less homework than my peers (even ones taking less advanced classes than I am) for some reason. However, I’m taking a very difficult course load (for my school) next year, which will be a little scary. And guard takes up, like, 90% of my time (but I still hope my parents let me do winterguard next year because it’s great).
