The Cafe Watering Hole

<p>The IB is ruining my life. By the end of the year, I will have submitted a 2000-word philosophy essay, two 1500-word “World Literature” essays in French, two 1500-word “World Literature” essays in English, two recorded 15 minute oral commentaries on a 100-word excerpt from a book we read in French and one we read in English, a 1000-word ToK essay, and a recorded ToK oral presentation. I’m so overwhelmed with due dates and I don’t know how I’ll get everything done.</p>

<p>I like essays. I don’t like chemistry. I have learned nothing.</p>

<p>Stupid molecular geometry. WHY DON’T YOU MAKE SENSE??</p>

<p>I’m good with molecular geometry.</p>

<p>BrF3 is not a compound. I refuse to entertain the notion.</p>

<p>It’s not that it’s insanely difficult; it’s that these compounds are seriously ridiculous. SeI6? No. H2PO4-? Nope.</p>

<p>I want more tortilla chips and ranch dip.</p>

<p>But it is.</p>

<p>We have to build the molecules with these insipid kits and our teacher refuses to help us and no one wants to even ask. Crazzyy.</p>

<p>Democrats are tiresome, but not as much as republicans.</p>

<p>If I have to take Chemistry in college, I’m either a) going to have to work really hard at it, or b) screwed. My teacher in high school taught NOTHING. My friend took the SAT Subject Test in Chemistry, and she studied for months and months to learn enough to get a 660 on the test. And she STUDIED. If she had five minutes at the end of a class, she would pull out her Barron’s book and cram. She estimated that our high school Chemistry class covered about one-fourth of what was on the test. I hope I can get out of taking a science somehow.</p>

<p>I would be a good IB student. I’m wishy washy and philosophical like that.</p>

<p>Do you know what’s weird? In the past month, five people have told me privately that they’re atheists. They all say that they don’t want other people to know. That’s understandable in my area. Since even the liberals are going to hell, I hate to think what that means for atheists. Anyway, I just think it’s odd that I’m becoming the hub of an underground atheist cult. I’m going to guess that my putting FSM posters on my locker doesn’t exactly promote my Christian cause…Hmmm…</p>

<p>Zaho is le bombe.</p>

<p>I don’t know if I’m an atheist. It’s all so unknown.</p>

<p>I do enjoy the Flying Spaghetti Monster, though, even if it does look like a freaky spider.</p>

<p>I’m moving to South Africa and learning to speak Afrikaans.</p>

<p>Ditto.</p>

<p>I am tired. Good night.</p>

<p>Why are my posts, on average, five times longer than all the others?</p>

<p>I have that problem often as well–with emails though.</p>

<p>Thought I’d check out the Cafe…though I’ve been lounging in more serious (do not take to mean “more important”) parts of CC since I’m applying to college, yo.</p>

<p>Hello rabbit.</p>

<p>Yahoo Canada referred to Andrew Jackson as Stonewall Jackson. Sigh. You really should get on that, Canadian.</p>

<p>'Sup snoops. Long time no talk to. (I thought you were going to sleep…?)</p>

<p>Don’t worry, rockermcr–I won’t hold that against you. But you really should get on that.</p>

<p>I was, but Yahoo Canada woke me up.</p>

<p>How are your rabbit things?</p>

<p>They’re great. I’m currently staying in animal state because I’ve learned animals have no monetary worries and as a future college-student human, I’ve learned there are many worries I need to be having monetarily.</p>

<p>Poses a slight problem in school, though, with the prejudice and all but I’m getting by.
How are your snoopy things?</p>

<p>I promised myself I wouldn’t get on CC until I worked on college essays. I came here first.</p>

<p>I haven’t posted in any of the serious forums for a long time. And by the way, the only reason I’m a senior member is because I was a member when they counted HSL posts. Probably 800 of my 1200 posts were in HSL. Now that it’s application season, I find it too nerve-wracking to go on the other forums.</p>

<p>Hey, Canadian: Counterclockwise.</p>

<p>I don’t understand.</p>

<p>They don’t count high school life posts anymore?</p>

<p>And my snoopy things aren’t nearly as good as your rabbit things, but they are fine.</p>

<p>Sarah Palin talked to this one Young Republican at my school over the phone. I bet she thought she was talking to the president.</p>
