The Phantom of Algebra II

Well, everyone seems to be so impatient for a new post so here it is:

Here is the deal, i have been in high school for 3 weeks now, and i have to say it is pretty sweet. That is except for Algebra 2. Just a little backround info here, i have made straight A's all my life and that record is in jeopardy MAJOR JEOPARDY. Back to the post, I am in Honors Algebra 2 which is the hardest class for a freshman. And last year in math, i made a 97(A +). So far this year, i am in the trenches in math. (just to mention i am in all honors classes). I like my teacher, she goes to my church, but i don't really like her teaching. She is not very emotional WHICH IS TOTALLY FINE, except for the fact that i had a CRAZY teacher last year who was the best i've ever had in my life. Back to the point... My math grade is rite now at this very moment a 78% (C-). NOT GOOD. Now, i am doing my best to bring it up, but I am just at a loss for words.

**Just to let everyone know, if i end up making a C in math, i will never be allowed to blog, email, play PS2, get on the computer, date, or even be allowed to leave the house AGAIN. Pray for me**

Well, just to put this into perspective, this teacher has two Honors Algebra 2 classes each day. So far, 3 A's in both classes COMBINED. yes, that's rite COMBINED! Now, let me clear something up. If I make a B in math, then that is the equivalent of an A in a non-Honors class. I get the same GPA points with a B that i would with an A in a non honors class. But i want an a to get my GPA above a 4. But I am making like 97's in every other class, and so that isn't so bad i guess. But I am not in trouble yet, i have 6 weeks to get that 78 to an 85 or higher. So, Dana you mite have had a little spill this morning, but I had a monumental flood in my life this morning when i found out my grade!

Real football...


Ahhh, yes. it's that time of year again. the time of year when you wake up and go to church. The time of year when you think God really does care about your favorite team.The time of year when you watch a game with 100 thousand fans for a team with 53 players, the time of year when you are most liable to throw the remote at the TV, or step on the dog in rage or lose your voice due to excessive screaming. Yes it is the NFL season again. And it is the most wonderful time of the year. What you look forward to all week long, what keeps you going thru the boring school days, what you think about 24/7. Yes, it is Steelers football. So, my friends, when you think you can't make it any longer, or are too bored to go on, remember that on Sunday, Big Ben will arrive, and the Steel Curtain will be opened and then.............KICKOFF. NFL football is here, don't miss it!
