Work with me here.<br \/>\nMy sister, if&#8217;n you didn&#8217;t know, can pass some 9-footers now: Matsuri Japan, Rhythm and Police, and INSERTiON, to name a few. Yeah, that&#8217;s right, a 13-year-old can kick your ass.<br \/>\nMy grades are borderline in Pre-Calc, and that ain&#8217;t good. I asked my teacher what the grade jump in Honors means &#8211; he says that I only get an extra grade point if I get a C or above. So that means that while a C translates to a B, a D stays a D. I&#8217;ll kick that Calculus Readiness Exam&#8217;s ass, though, so there&#8217;s no need to worry&#8230; much.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m looking for teh summer job. I&#8217;ve tried contacting some people in need of websites &#8211; I think I&#8217;m up for some more design this summer &#8211; but I haven&#8217;t gotten any replies. I also signed up for the internship program at my school, and I was even going to be hooked up with a paid web design job &#8211; when the job supervisor DIED. Like, a day or two ago. Hopefully it was because he was really old or something. Something very similar happened to my dad &#8211; he was going to present something to a superior, and he worked on it for weeks. On the day of the presentation, the whole thing was cancelled because his superior&#8217;s parachute didn&#8217;t open.<br \/>\nWell, it happens.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s just a little more than a week left of school as I know it. That&#8217;s good to know, but I tend to keep the thought in the back of my head. We&#8217;re still doing a bunch of stuff in all of my classes, so although finals are a little more than a week from now, it just doesn&#8217;t seem that way. This is for the better since I&#8217;m not showing any severe signs of this newfangled &#8220;senioritis&#8221; thingo.<br \/>\n&#8230;heh, &#8220;La Senioritis Virtual.&#8221;<br \/>\nA few days ago I stopped off at Starbase, where <a HREF=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/~tidus\">Chris<\/a> and <a HREF=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/~djnoah\">Noah<\/a> were hangin&#8217; out. Aside from Joint Game Premium, the game was crashing one helluva lot, due to the weather. Chris and I decided to try our luck on the Trick oni course and it crashed 3 times in a row in the SAME PLACE. We shut down the machine, cooled it off, restarted it, it crashed while loading, and finally we were back to Trick. It didn&#8217;t freeze this time, and I got all the way to the beginning of Ecstasy. Uh, hooray for me.<br \/>\nSince the machine would probably just keep crashing, Chris gave me a few credits as he and Noah left. Jeez, Chris is such a nice guy. Besides just fueling Chris&#8217;s part-time job salary by pumping quarters, I&#8217;ve got to find some way of thanking him or doing something for him.<br \/>\nI haven&#8217;t been in anyone else&#8217;s car for quite some time, since I&#8217;ve been doing almost all of my driving&#8230; this whole year, in fact. But due to some complicated car pickup plan, my dad wanted me to drive my stepmom&#8217;s Acura yesterday. Acura is a division of Honda, so the Integra handles almost exactly the same way as the Accord&#8230; only BETTER. Gawd, it was as if my car had grown 10 years younger and it was&#8230; just&#8230; more responsive. Bwaugh. It was just a simple ride down the freeway, but it was fun. I can&#8217;t wait until a few years into college, where I probably get a new car. We&#8217;re probably going to sell THUH CAR ITSELF at the end of the summer, since I won&#8217;t be using it, nor will anyone else, for quite some time.<br \/>\nOh, and probably coming up even sooner is a new computer, as some sort of graduation present.
