Week 31-32: Hudson Honors!

English was one of the few classes I actually looked forward to in the mornings because I was mostly good at it. That and two of my friends also had the class, so it wasn't completely boring.
Most interesting part of the class: It has to be the treasure words, because they were easy and I enjoyed showing everyone how many words I knew (Even though they still think I'm an insufferable know-it-all stick-in-the-mud).
Least favorite part of the class: The end of the year commencement speech thing. I still have no idea where mine is going or what to talk about. And every other writing assignment that I suddenly got writer's block on.
Hardest I laughed in class: At my own jokes because no one else is funny. Just kidding. I'm a stonewall. I don't laugh. Ever.
Favorite memory from class: Every one of Jesse's crazy antics and phrases.
Best thing about Hudson as a teacher: Definitely the dark humor and the laugh and the wall of art that I posted to once.
Things Hudson could do better for future classes: I think you should do more reading and discussing, and less worksheets.
Final Comments: I'm going to miss this class, truly. College will suck. *Drops microphone*

Week 30: Senior wills?

I have no idea what I would leave in my 'senior will'. I don't really have any lower class friends, except like one person. I guess I would leave my desk in all of my classes, my favorite paint brush in art class, and maybe my notes in chemistry (Though I'll probably just take those to college with me). I would leave my notebook full of drawings and doodles as something people can remember me by. I suppose I would also leave my locker, just because it is one of the few that actually unlock when you want them to. I don't really have anything else to leave behind.

Week 29: Words from the not so wise...

I can't wait until graduation. I feel like I'm in a cage, watching a clock count down second by second, until the time the door opens and I can just run out and leave this place forever. My advice for the junior class would be: Don't be stupid, GROW UP (mentally), and gain some common sense. Also DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!! Late homework brings your grade down a lot more than you think. Also, keep your drama to yourself. Nobody cares or wants to hear it. Don't stick your nose where it doesn't belong and stay out of other people's business. My final piece of advice is to respect your elders.

Week 28: The weirdest complement...

I get strange complements all the time. People say I'm smart but I don't believe them. People also say that I'm good at drawing things, but I think I'm a noob. People also say that I'm good at everything. I also don't believe this. I also get people that think my hair is the softest they've ever seen, which is frankly weird and awkward. People think my taste in music is the greatest, but I think it's just normal. The only complement that I would agree with is that I am a normal high school senior with nothing special about me.

Week 27: I'm a professional!

I could never be a teacher. The little devil children would drive me insane. But I would want to be a professional computer animator. I could make my own cartoons and video games, which would be totally awesome. I actually wanted to go to college for that, but I chose something else instead. I consider it a missed opportunity. And once my reputation for amazing animations spread, maybe Dreamworks or Pixar or Disney would hire me. Animating is probably a lot harder than it looks, so I would probably need a lot of patience and computer skills, both of which I have (on certain days).

Week 26: Unlimited time!

If I had unlimited time, I would do everything that I could possibly think of. Since I have unlimited time, I think it's safe to say that I also have unlimited money. I would try to go base jumping or skydiving, even though I'm terrified of heights. I would take a very long (like a year or more) hiking trip around Europe, and then hit every continent after that. I would love to take a trip to outer space and live in the International Space Station for a while. After that, I want to go vacationing in Japan, then China, and maybe climb Mount Everest while I'm there. There's so many things I could do, but where would I start?

Week 25: Talking to myself!

I talk to myself all the time anyway, so this wouldn't be too far from normal,besides having an awesome time-traveling doppleganger. I would totally trust future me. Seeing into the future would be such an awesome advantage over life. I could tell myself the answers to all the tests and homework for school and college. I could warn myself about unforeseen circumstances, like the end of the world. In all reality, though, we would probably just talk about art, the latest video games, life in general, and about all the people we didn't like and how uncool they still are.

Week 24: I don't wanna grow up!

OH MY GOSH LEGOS!!!! I totally know what you're talking about! I used to sit for hours at a time, building houses, spaceships, armored motorcycle-car things, and a bunch of other stuff. It was the most fun ever because I could do just about anything with them. The possibilities were endless! It's kinda sad though, because now my legos just sit in the corner of my room in a big cardboard box, unused and unloved. But anyway, my favorite game was a game that my family invented. We used to get a bunch of those little super-bounce balls and chuck them at each other from across the house. It was so much fun, even though we broke a lot of stuff.

Week 23: Paradise!

I'm a huge science nut so my paradise would be a huge laboratory, all by myself, with unlimited resources and all the time in the world. Oh, I would love to go there right now and spend all my time. It sounds so cool already! I could genetically engineer so many awesome things! I'm already on my way to this goal, since I'm going to college for similar things. I want to create hybrid animals like from the TV show Avatar: The Last Airbender. They have some crazy hybrids in that show, like eelhounds, polar bear-dogs, spider-flies and flying lemurs. It's actually pretty awesome. I'll leave some pictures down below to show you!

Week 22: All we need is love!

I do have a crush on a certain someone. And I do have a few good love songs that I jam to in my room when no one else is listening. Strangely, they're all by the same band: Gackt. They're a Japanese metal band. I know most of the lyrics by heart, which is kinda cool because my parents will sometimes overhear me singing in Japanese and wonder what the heck I'm singing. The songs 'Returner' and 'Kimi Ga Matte Iru Kara' are my favorites and are both love songs. My favorite song 'Returner' tells of a samurai that lost his life in battle and, as his life passes before his eyes, the last thing he sees is his wife's smiling face. I could listen to that over and over again for days.

Week 21: Valentines Day!

I am really not a fan of Valentines Day. I usually never do anything with anybody and I usually end up playing video games all day and not caring about anything. That pint of Ben and Jerry's is sounding really good right about now though. I think I would get some rocky road. I am very cold-hearted when it comes to love and things like that. But if I had to root for a movie or book couple, I think I would choose Eragon and Aria from the Eragon series. It's not really all that realistic since it takes place in a made-up land with dragons and magic and demons and stuff, but it's my favorite book series, so I like it.

Week 20: A crazy family!

Most of my family members are fairly normal, though my mother can be a bit high-strung and stubborn most of the time. My dad is the one I like the most out of my whole family. My oldest sister thinks she runs the place, which gets really annoying. My younger sister is the nicest out of all the family, but only when the other sister isn't around. Most of my family members can be pretty temperamental at times.

 My family does have it's fair share of drama though.
Also, most people in my family are bugging me about not having a girlfriend yet.
We can have some pretty crazy fun sometimes, though not as crazy as this.

My family can be pretty crazy at times, like the time we got a bunch of our friends together and played full-contact football. Let's just say that there were plenty of injuries.
I also happen to be the smartest person in my family, so I get asked a lot of math questions and stuff like that, especially when my mother, who isn't good at math at all, is balancing the check book. But anyway, that's my dysfunctional family, but I wouldn't change it for the world.

Week 19: A second life as an animal!

First off, this sounds absolutely fantastic! But I have a question: Would I be limited to real animals or could I go Mythic? If I could, I would definitely come back as a dragon. I would want to be a dragon because they are big, strong, they look cool, and they can fly. Plus they have really, really long lifespans. They can live for thousands of years. Though on the downside, I suppose scientists around the world would stop at nothing to track me down and put me in a display case or a zoo. I would be constantly traveling, which could be a lot of fun. So anyway, this could be a lot of fun!

Week 18: Happiness is...?

A lot of things tend to make me pretty happy. Anything involving dragons is worth freaking out over, especially the little cute ones. Also, my best friend is probably the only thing that gets me through some days. She gets excited over absolutely everything. Video games with a good story line make me really happy. Large explosions are also one of my favorite things (I loved the show Mythbusters.). My favorite TV series used to make my happy, but then it got canceled, making me very unhappy. The homecoming dance this weekend is probably going to make me very happy. These are just some of the many things that make me happy. Oh, and food!

Week 17: My life as a reality TV show!

If I was selected to have a TV show made about me, I would definitely show it like it is. All the stress, anxiety, fun, and exhilaration of being a high school senior wold make a great reality TV show just by itself. I play a lot of video games when I'm at home and not much else, so most of my TV show would have to take place when I'm at school, otherwise it would be pretty boring. I would show how the stress and anxiety of hard classes, homework deadlines, and trying to find the right college can really take a toll on a senior.
