Advisor Base with Mrs. O -

We'll start the morning off by throwing eveyone off with the "advisor" base thing. Everyone will spend the first 10 minutes of class training themselves not to say "advisory". (Some teachers don't like that, apparently.) You will spend half an hour of basic computer training. The computer nerds will feel as though their IQs have dropped, and the computer-illiterates will be more confused than before. The last 15 minutes of class will be spent with 30% of the students freaking out because the "binocular" icon has shown up in the finder bar. An additional five minutes will be spent wondering why the heck the admin is watching you.

Algebra 2 with Mrs. J -

Do the simplistic bellwork. This bellwork takes you five minutes to do, and you are confident that saving it as "Chi_bellwork27_per1" is correct, since that's what your AB teacher told you to do. When there are 30 seconds of bellwork time left, the teacher will inform you that she wants it to be called "JBellwork27". Everyone will scramble to move the finger pad mouse, and make mental notes to bring a mouse to plug in tomorrow. Everyone will forget this mental note by 3rd period. This process will be repeated throughout the school year, no matter what method you use to try to remember.

Health with Mrs. K -

One week before school starts, we will make your parents pay for clothes and a lock one semester early. We will mention nothing about how you won't need these things until you take Fitness class 18 weeks later. Because of this, you will come in on the first day of school with barely enough room for your laptop in your bag. Your clothes will be taking up too much room. You will also spend all morning trying to learn how to work the lock, and sress yourself out beyond belief. When you start class, the first unti will be "Discovering Your Talents", also known as "Guilt Trip Central 101" or "Find Out Who's More Talented Than You Class".

English with Mrs. F -

You will point out to the person sitting next to you that the admin is STILL watching you, despite the fact your computer has been asleep for half an hour. Your teacher will go over the student handbook with your teacher and notice that the dress code isn't strict at all. Your hopes will be brought down, however, when you realize that this is only because they've taken away your right to curse during lunchtime. You will spend the last 15 minutes attempting to log onto StudyWiz, and continuously get the "Whoops! This page has expired!" message. You will fantasize for approx. 3 minutes on how if you had gotten to take home your computers the FIRST day, this wouldn't have happened.

Spanish 2 with Mrs. O -

You will submit a good 50% of your assignments into your advisor base folder, due to your confusion at being in the same classroom again. You will miss 5 minutes of the lecture because you are trying to move the files back. Further listening proves that you wouldn't have understood her anyway, as she's been giving the last half of the lecture in spanish. You will have to point out that though you ARE spanish 2 students, you aren't fluent. You may also notice that your teacher speaks with a much different accent than your Spanish 1 teacher, thus making you sound like a moron when you try to speak it. You will laugh hysterically at the adorable demonstrations your teacher is giving you to demonstarte word meanings, and have the smile slide off your face when she informs you that YOU have to do it now.

Lunchtime -

You will pray to your god that you have a freshman or sophomore friend that gets out of class 5 minutes earlier than you. They will be your only hope at getting a decent table and shade for lunch. You will gripe for 5 minutes on how they need to speed up work on the cafeteria. Sophomores and juniors will spend an additional 5 minutes discussing how this is just like when Desert Sky opened, except they let you eat in the library. You will complain to your friend that your battery power has dropped down to 15% already, despite the fact you only had your computer on for about an hour today.

Survey of Art with Mr. C -

You will start the class off by noticing that the computer tech. hasn't dropped your History AP, Classical Guitar, or Freshman English class yet, and you ar eunable to submit assignments for art class now. You will get a pass and go up as a group to the tech room, only to find it locked. You have no desire to go in anyway, however, because the door is crawling with grasshoppers, beetles, and roaches that wander the school due to construction. You will come back, eager to start the lesson. You won't be able to listen to the lesson however, because the two autistic kids in the corner are screaming at random moments. You will ackdknowledge that they have a right to be there, but then wonder why no one cares about your right to hear what the freak your teacher is saying. You will end this class in frustration, wondering what these kids are doing in the tech school in a College-level class... when their parapros are going over the alphabet with them.

Chemistry with Dr. F -

You will be given a greek letter and told to find the matching card on a desk. The seating chart will be royally screwed up, because everyone will soon discover that when you turn over a letter of the greek alphabet, it looks just like another letter. You will spend most of the day dreading this class, but then finding that converting millimeters to meters is the easiest thing you've ever done. You wll walk out of the class feeling very smart until you remember that you did this exact same thing in 4th grade; you just forgot how to do it.

Advisor Base with Mrs. O -

Despite your teacher telling you the previous day that she's choc-full of games, she will walk in, obviously tired of dealing with little snots all day, and tell you to charge your laptop and do whatever the heck you want. As long as you don't look at porn, she's good. Before you plug your laptop in, you will point out that you're STILL being watched by admin. You wonder some more why the bloody admin is watching you, because you've done nothing beyond classwork for the last three days.


End of School -

You think of all those lucky jerks down at TUSD and Vail High that were out an hour before you, even though you love getting up at 7:00 every morning. Your bus will be the last bus on Cienega's route, and you will have to wait 45 minutes for the bus. You will have no homework, your Ipod battery will die, and you will not have your laptop. Tomorrow, you'll get to do the same thing all over again.

(Hey, just to let you know, I adore Empire High with all my being =) This is just singling out some of the more frustrating aspects ^_^;; )
