Part 12 - Track and Math

4-5-17

Ok a few weeks ago, I decided to join track at my school. Practices are Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. But I dont go Fridays because like hell am I staying after school 4 days out of 5 (Band practices on Thursdays). We have had two track meets. I got to sprint in the 100 meter and 200 meter dash. Naturally, because im slow, I was placed last but I dont care about my placement. I didn't join track to win, I joined because Im a lazy ass and I wanted to lose some weight, but if Im on my own i will never do that so I have a teacher telling me what to do. I also joined Track because I can run, albeit slower than others but still, and because I have horrible skill and coordination so I wouldn't do well in any other type of sport. That and it was also way late in the year to join anything else than track. I absolutely fail at hurdles though. Learned that the hard way.

Also there is a track meet tomorrow so Im excited for that. I just have to remember to bring my blanket and a black long sleeved shirt to wear underneath if its cold. But because of the recent weather, i really dont think it will.

At my last Track meet I met a new friend. Hes awesome. Legit we met down at the field events, and me and about three others on my team including Edward (new friend) created a small town out of the thatch and sticks and pine cones. After my 100 meter dash event, I basically hung out with Edward and we spent most of the time laying down in his hammock. No it wasnt anything perverted you dirty minded people. But it was surprising that we were both able to fit on a one person hammock.

The other day I got my ACT scores back. I wont say my scores, but I did really awesome at my Reading and English sections, decent at my Science, but I bombed my Math section so hard. Its upsetting, because I dont understand math no matter what I do. I can understand some parts of it, but not the important parts. I fucking hate how society looks down on those who dont do well in math. I was better in it when I was younger, but when we got to the complicated math, i just couldn't understand it. I dont know what Im going to do about it but I need a higher math score to get into a good college.

Ive noticed recently, but Ive been doing bad in school. Not the subjects or assignments themselves, but the actual doing the work and turning it in. I have just stopped caring and I actually dont like that because I need to focus and work. All I want to do in life is read and play video games. I could really care less about anything else, but I have to to pass in life. Which sucks.

In class last week, I got so bored that I actually created my own chibi character. The teacher had to take away my pencil and pen to make sure I was paying attention, which was new. Never once was my pencil taken away. My books, technology, everything else yeah. But my pencils? Thats new.

Ill see if I can upload a picture of it later in my next part or something. I dunno.

So last year, around the 3rd of June, I met Ash on wattpad and its almost been an entire year so we need to do something to celebrate that. I dont know what though so I need ideas people. I cant visit him because he doesnt even live close to me and I cant just travel like a thousand miles to hang out with him even though thats what I want to do. His birthday is coming up though so I can probably send something but i dont know what. It honestly just depends on whether I finish my idea or not.

Anyways I have to get to class so Ill see you in the next part. BYE!!
