School starts back tomorrow
Help!
School starts back on August 8th, which like I said is tomorrow. My senior year. I'm not particularly worried about this. Well, maybe a little. This is the first year that I'm going to have to take a 0 period.
0 periods are interesting little devices to deprive us of even more sleep and cram even more classes in. They start nearly a full hour before first period starts. That is, they start at 7:05 (they recently changed this, it used to be 7:15. Of course that's AM. And regular class, that is first period, starts at 8:00. It used to be 8:05 though. Why am I taking the 0 period??? Because it's either take a 0 period or drop out of band for a semester. :( I might have possibly considered it (NOT) in my earlier years in high school, but obviously I'm NOT dropping out of band my senior year. And I had to have a second language. I foolishly took Latin 1 in the 10th grade (when I was 15/16). I tried to take Latin 2 last year, but it didn't fit into my schedule. And then I found out that Latin 2 was only offered 4th period (band) and 0 period.
So you understand now? I have to get up at the crack of dawn, or the C.O.D. as my mother puts it.
