Hey, watching stupid movies is a helluva lot better than having to take the 3 hours of hell known as the Spanish Regents (they're a series of exams in various subjects high schoolers in New York State have to take if they wanna graduate). I still remember, instead of studying for it using one of the little red Barron's books everyone got for their Regents, I tried watching movies I knew and loved in Spanish (OK, all I watched was Aladdin, but it did work, considering I got a 96 on it).

That's actually really smart to watch a movie that you probably know every line to. I should try that with the Little Rascals =] "What's the number to 911" >> "Que es el numero a nueve uno uno?"... (i feel like that's wrong...lol)

That sounds right to me, but it's been ages (OK, 2 years) since I took Spanish.

I remember senior year: I took AP Euro (can't use the credit cause I'm a history minor concentrating in American), AP eco (flunked it and now I have to take eco in the fall cause it's a core business major class), and AP stats (I didn't wanna take precalc, got a 1 on the AP exam, and just had to endure a hell-on-Earth semester with a precalc designed for people in the sciences going onto higher math, when all I needed it for was just as a prereq for like 2 classes). I just hope for your sake you don't get senioritis, but once you graduate, it's a great feeling.

Do you know what college you want to go to?

So....an update on the guy i like? Today in class he was like, "You're gonna grow old, live in a trailer, with 100 cats blasting Fleetwood Mac". I was like, "Is that a bad thing?" and his response, again, was "You're gay." I just ignored him the whole class, but then as i was leaving the classroom, he shouted down the hallway, "Miranda, you're so kinky!"

sooooo embarassing....

The never of him!

I swear, guys in high school are so strange. I tried to be friends with a guy once and he thought I was hitting on him.

No Miranda that's not a bad thing (just lower the number of cats to like 3 though...that trailer will smell otherwise)...may I ask why do you like him though? He kinda seems like a douche (but they teach us when we're young that if they are a dick to you it just means that they like you...smh).

I loved your response! And of course it isn't a bad thing - maybe we could do it together? I'll be sure to bring Sooty with me to the trailer!
While there's no doubt you can't help the way you feel about certain people, you'll find that some of them are best just to let go, like I did with Tessa last week. (Surprisingly, I don't find myself regretting my decision, which I'm finding a little strange, because there's a certain sense in which I still mildly regret never staying in contact with a girl I "liked" two years ago... probably because we were so friendly during the semester of uni, but didn't stay in contact during the holidays and beyond). As for being embarrassed, just remember that something's only embarrassing if the person trying to insult you is right. In this case, they're not right, so there's nothing to be embarrassed about.

WHAT A JERK ! I'm seriously pissed. Why can't people just respect what you like? Is he a friend (besides the fact that you like him)? Because, if he is, he should be more tolerant and try to care about your interests, and if he isn't, then it's none of his business. Nobody should judge you for what you like, or for what you are. (but this situation seems to be usual, for today's teenagers).
