Lowkey mad (mad="annoyed" but y'know, "mad" sounds more dramatic and funnier) at my math teacher for putting in a grade as 9/10 even though I did a problem correctly and even though I "corrected" the problem as well
Now math is at like 97.5% just because of that lol

Okay guys, off I go now lol. PSATs are later today and I'm getting up a heck lot earlier than I usually would (hence going to bed a heck lot earlier than I usually would). Wish me luck or believe me or smthn lol. See you later.

Back from PSATs
Ironically going to bed earlier did not help at all
Idk my mind was brewing in...I don't even know what the heck it was brewing, actually. It was just making gurgling noises while I was trying to fall asleep. Maybe it was brewing tea idk
Gonna talk about F/GO before I sound like a curmudgeon right away.
So, I did farm 8 Rider pieces yesterday, so Sushiwakamaru will be able to be ascended,,, but I kept getting Void Dust and Rider monuments rather than a single Dragon's Reverse Scale, like bruh, I just wanted to ascend Gao Changgong lol it should not have been/be this hard
Technically I could ascend Kingprotea instead of Ushiwakamaru but I think Ushiwakamaru (level 40 currently and also a 3-star) needs to ascend more than Kingprotea (level 50 currently and also a 5-star), and also I need the Saber pieces for Altera, who's priority over Kingprotea. I mean,,, Kingprotea is a tank without Ascension anyways and I rarely use Infantile Regression anyways.

Secondly, about real life, which is why I talked about non-reality first.
What. The. Heck.
I've decided that going virtual next year is actually a very smart idea even though my eyes are constantly dead every day from screentime and I retain no motivation whatsoever to do virtual classwork.
Why?
Because my schoolmates, specifically just a quarter of the school, my grade, are--pardon the language--idiots.
Today, from 8:00 to 13:00, I practiced people-dodging skills as I watched kids take their masks off, whether that was while they were speaking (whY???) to just permanently taking them off, yank the masks down so that their noses showed (wHY???), huddle with (also stupid) friends in groups of more than 10, literally block off the hallways in hordes (and my high school has huge hallways), and no adult yelled at them. Why? Because there was too much to enforce. I watched stupid kids stampede out of their classrooms in huge huddles and was just glad that I make decisions by looking at the safe side. I am Not Going Back to In-Person School unless the pandemic is actually over, and that goes for 12th grade if I must, too.
Stupid adults rear stupid kids. What am I to say other than that? I've seen abundant evidence and have lost faith in those of my grade. Yayyy.

I also witnessed at least 30 kids nearby me go "It's so (expletive) cold, I'm going back inside," and if I weren't trying to hold my breath so I wouldn't potentially breathe in viruses or nasty things like that, I would've laughed. Why? Because these were the same kids who had taken off their sweaters and were literally holding said sweaters, standing outside in cold, windy weather in t-shirts.

Ignoring the kids thing though, I literally haven't been at my school in a year and a month now, so looking at it again was like some mix of sadness and nostalgia. Mostly sadness, lol, since it seems I won't be going back to it (other than for a certain club's activities, potentially) for another year.

GalaxianExplosion · April 15, 2021 15:55:50

On a more positive note though (as I avoid more work)
PSATs were pretty easy. Like, there was less anxiety for me this year. Some questions were so easy that I felt like I was getting tricked, which is never fun. Obviously I won't talk about questions specifically since that's a good way to make sure I don't get scores and I do want scores, but one question was actually pretty hard lol, I almost panicked during it. And English SAT/PSAT questions are so weird sometimes smh but whatever
Anyways I think I did well. Won't say I aced it because I probably didn't, but I did well.

Please stay safe tho. I don't think the kids at your school care much about getting and spreading the disease so that's oof.

GalaxianExplosion · April 15, 2021 17:12:56

"In a new poll two-thirds of Democrats reported having had at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine, while two-fifths of Republicans said they did not plan to be inoculated."
I love political party polarization
According to my fried brain, 2/5s is 40 percent of Republicans, yee? And then 25% of Americans identify with the Republican Party
So basically 10% of Americans don't want to be vaccinated as of right now, and that's hoping that all of the Americans who register as Independent, including those who lean Republican, are all planning on getting vaccinated.
And also hoping that all Democrats also are planning to get vaccinated if they can, too...
Yay.
I really hope that the herd immunity point will be, like, 85% or something, but then again that doesn't sound reassuring to me, either. Lol

Haha, I tried my best, I'll say that. Of course, if--hopefully I'm not jinxing myself--I did get SARS-CoV-2 today, then it'll be a few days until symptoms appear, so until then, I guess I'm just waiting it out. But I hope I don't get it ever since losing smell and taste is, like, that's more horrible than most anything I can think of (excluding, of course, me losing my fingers, cognitive ability, vision, hearing...to be honest, losing any sense or ability to use it sounds horrible in general lol, so nvm) since I like eating and sniffing too much for my own good (lol that sounded weirder than I wanted to make it sound)
You guys all stay safe and healthy too! Remember that no matter how bad life may be treating you now, it's an opportunity to grow and learn in the end if you make it that way for yourself, instead of a way to put you down.

Obviously nothing belongs to me, duh, if it did I would gloat all day about it
Starting off, I'm pretty sure this is cheating
