I had an orchestra concert today and for the last piece there were 7 grades and about 150+ people on stage and most of the high school violas got stuck in the very back among all of the middle schoolers
Six violas at one stand
Surrounded by sixth graders
Like a lot of sixth graders
hmMMMMMMM
why do my assignments stretch to fill all of my freetime unless I’m right against a deadline
:<
hopefully having a bunch of homework from a dual-enrollment class next year will straighten my time management out
@awesomepolyglot I had my spring concert for orchestra on monday, and it was stressful 
The pieces where you play with younger players are the worst, because the room is always so crowded. I always end up looking at the young’ns, too, because their violins are so tiny
also, my phone just broke for the second time in two days; the replacement had a factory defect in its logic board </3
I did figure out what was wrong with it before the apple people, though 
What does any of that mean @awesomepolyglot
we had a presentation in Spanish II today, so we were all supposed to wear formal wear
the teacher didn’t say anything, so none of us wore formal wear 
she was very surprised, but chose not to deduct points for it
we have had too many casual-wear presentations by now to expect formal wear without forewarning >.>
So yesterday the seniors took a huge picture with their college shirts and there was so much orange
Ahhhh so happy I finally broke 5:10 in the mile at my meet yesterday - 5:09.35! I might be able to move on to league finals.
Currently in Tennessee, got lost, and now I am at a Dunkin Donuts. Hmm
at least you’re not lost in Pennsylvania @IrrationalPepsi
People from PA just do not know how to drive, second only maybe to FL. .-.
Although, I’m sure people in each state think that the others can’t drive hahah
I just realized a significant amount of my likes and ‘helpfuls’ are from directing people to the right forum
Quick everybody like and helpful that
I am home now lol, but we were going through TN to get to Virginia and took a wrong exit on the way back. I was in Johnson City and omg the hospital there is MASSIVE
How do your school do finals?
At mine, AP tests count as finals for AP classes. Otherwise, they go like this:
There is a study period preceding the exam, and 2 exams per day, except for the first day. They go in reverse class order, so 8th is the first exam. Seniors without senior exemptions take all of their exams in the PAC at the same time. Fifth and sixth period share an exam time.
The APHG exam is on the first day of exams, so it coincides with eighth period. However, I have APHG eighth period, so I’m skipping the eighth period exam to take the eighth period exam, except there’s no eighth period exam because of the eighth period exam.
Tomorrow is the last late-start day of the school year :((
@jdecker9 I am a huge (emphasis on the huge) musical theatre nerd. And I love Hamilton. I mean Lin Manuel has created a masterpiece. It’s funny I really only listen to showtunes and I hate rap, but I love Hamilton and In the Heights. If any of you love Hamilton, In the Heights is another amazing LMM.
I will actually be in NYC 2x this summer, but I didn’t try to buy tickets early enough. But, lucky for me my city is the first one on the tour and we get a 5 month sit down production, and I already have tickets!
@awesomepolyglot 2 finals a day (idk how it’s coordinated) but everyday for finals is a half day. If you only have 1 final for a certain day, you can try making it passed “the hawk” (a really intense security officer that won’t let kids playing sports after school to drink water in the building) and leave even earlier.
The last four days of school are set up w exam periods (2 hr blocks) and you technically only have to be in school during your exam sessions, usually people just go into town and chill
and yeah 4/5s or an A in an AP course means you don’t have to take that class’ exam
Except I still have almost two months until finals haha
Good luck on yours @awesomepolyglot !!
Thanks @northeastgirl24
You don’t have to be in school for exams you don’t have to take. At midterms, there were a ton of seniors coming in only periodically.
Somebody should learn Welsh with me
I’m not going to tell my family that I’m learning it and then wake up one morning and freak them all out
I’m so excited
Tune into HGTV at 7 central for the lols and tell your friends
