spanish, ick.

oh em geeeeeeeeee.

i totally detest espanol. well, it's not even the language that i don't like, it's the teacher that makes it horrible.

gosh i wish she would just get lost in a jungle or something. having to see her every morning makes me sick to the stomach.

she doesn't teach well, gives us condescending looks, doesn't prepare us for tests, can't answer questions that we ask, isn't pleasant to look at, and is not too bright in the head.

i never know whether i'm going to fail or pass a test in her class. they're so freaking spontaneous. like, one moment we'll be doing activities in the book and then suddenly it's like "ok, put ur books away, we're going to take a quiz before class ends!"

ok, way to tell us beforehand LOSER.

ick. and she wonders why ppl are doing bad in her class.

then, when we get bad scores, she's like "ok, you guys HAVE to ask questions or else you're never going to do well!"

so when we DO ask questions, the response is somewhat like, "you're in spanish 3! you should know this stuff.!"

or

"I don't know what to tell you."

dumb much?

omg, i hate her.

it's the week before the final and to prep us, she basically gives us laptops and tells us to study.

yeah right.

it's been a while since i've been on blogger. i miss it. it's like an online journal. lol

ok, i think im going to end it here before she comes over and sees what im doing haha.

that would suck.

as if she didn't hate me enough as it is.

Missing OCAC

Guys, I don't think I've felt this sad in a long, long time. As OCAC ended, i realized how attached I had grown the to the college and the other 169 kids in the program. I didn't realize it during the 6 weeks I was there, but, in those 6 weeks, those people became like family to me. It didn't really hit me that I might never see these people again until the last week I was there. I made some friends that I would consider calling a "best friend" and just knowing that I may never be able to visit them because they live in Italy or Germany is a really depressing thought.

I'm actually glad that nobody I knew from home was there on the last day, because they would've seen me bawl like a baby. I don't think I've cried that hard since...grade school maybe. But, my mom says it was a good experience to know how it feels like to leave behind friends. ( i think she's just very...cynical).

But, i'll definitely keep in touch with them and I'll never forget all the good times we had. Maybe, i'll go to Rome sometime and visit Sean, or maybe Berlin/Hamburg to visit Sylvia and Kilian. :]

OR, maybe they could come to america and visit me :D

Just had to get that out.

That was a pretty boring blog post.

I MISS OCAC!

i want to go back next year :D

As we were leaving and everyone was in tears, my counselor told me "Amy, you were my favorite student." At least, that's what I heard between sobs. lol.

i was so touched, i think i cried even harder. haha.

OCAC

Sorry, it's been a really long while guys. It's just so hectic here because it's the last week and everybody's trying to spend as much time with eachother as possible. I'm going to be really sad to see these people go because i know i probably won't be able to visit any, except the ones in the states ( and chances are still slim for those).

oh yeah, congratulations ryan on the anniversary and love, etc. and bryan, it's ok to advertise movies. and wth is a spiderpig?

oh, even more exciting. i got a haircut and i got bangs because that's what the stylist recommended. i really liked it at first, but a couple hours later, i regreted it like no other. ugh.

i'm hoping they'll grow back before i come back. lol

and

i haven't started my summer reading. kill me now.

i miss you guys.

School life

*sigh* well, i just got back from getting in trouble cuz my friends and i went to the boy's dorm to beat up this kid lol. cuz he pranked called our room and pretended to be a counselor and told us to go downstairs. (only one of us went, poor Gillian). The worst thing is that we're on the 6th floor and there're no elevators. So, Gillian had to walk down 6 flights of steps and then come back up (as if we don't already do that enough during the day as it is).

I hope the couselor's kill him.

Oh yeah, sorry for the lack of updates, i've been real busy (i've made friends with the Italian kids BTW :D )

The classes are pretty hard here. Like, kung fu is hard because it's hard to remember all the movements and u have to be precise, so yeah. Volleyball is so intense too, i sweat up a storm. and my arms are so purple. it's like military camp ugh.

my roommate just shut off all the lights, darn her.

so yeah, the classes are hard here, but overall i like it :D ill miss everyone when this ends. :[

i really need to start my summer reading though.

but, i need all my free time to practice the harmonica and study my notes! (chinese is extremely hard to memorize, ugh)

well,my roommate is being annoying, so ill ttyl.

:D

adios.
