I got my AP Statistics test results today. I got a 4 out of 5. Much better than what I was expecting. I thought I had failed the test. Multiple choice section was easy but the free response … ouch. I’m way happy about that score.
More great news, I got my first (well second) pay check today. It was my first full pay check but the second one I got. Only worked for a few hours for last months pay check. I’m not sure I like getting paid only once a month. Oh well, it makes big pay checks.

I’m watching the Simpsons right now so thats why the random quote.
Its been a fun, boring, and interesting month. We’ll see if I still like programming and if its what I want to do for the rest of my life. It can be fun but it can also be very boring.
The 4th was pretty fun. Lots of relatives were in town that I haven’t seen for a while. In the morning we went to breakfast and watched the parade. This year there were actually floats instead of people riding in the back of a truck or something like that. During the day there was a family reunion. We sat around and talked for a long time. Kinda boring. After we ate we lit lots of fireworks and played some games but that ended when a surprise thrunder storm came from no where. The storm cleared out and we were able to go to the fireworks at night.
Got some new speakers for my truck <3. I’m having a hard time tuning everything though. I can listen to one song, it sounds great and later listen to the same song with the same settings and it sounds like crap. My ears are probably messed up.
Hanging out with a bunch of 14 year old girls, not fun …
I’ve rambled long enough. Time for bed, goodnight.

I got a job. I never did blog about this but it is at a design studio. My title is Jr. Web Developer. I program websites for their clients. Tomorrow I start working full time. Before I have been working only part time. I’m liking the job so far. Its exactly what I enjoy doing and it has lots of potential for me. I hope I can work there for a long time.
Last Friday was graduation. I’m now a highschool graduate! Yay! Now on to the real world … joy … I thought I had more to say about this but I guess I don’t. I need to get to bed. I haven’t had a full nights sleep for a couple of nights now. Been out partying too much.

Last week in my current issues class we started a video about Harvey Milk, the first elected official that was openly gay. Today my teacher was telling us that after class lat time, a student had called home and said they were going to vomit because the video we were watching had homosexual sex in it. This was a lie. The video had gay couples kissing and that is it. Nothing worse than that.
Because of that, the video was confiscated and the district has to review it before the teacher can have it back. He says that he probably won’t get it back until sometime in the summer.
Its makes me sad that people can’t realize that gay rights is an issue of today and they may not like it but they’ll have to deal with it some day. The teacher was pretty anger and I’d bet that most of the class was as well. What an immature jerk.

People often talk about being a friend to everyone. Does this happen, not at my school … my high school isn’t very accepting of anyone. Groups only hang out with people from the same group. No one mixes. This is especially bad for me since I don’t have a specific group.
I’m not part of the norm and I know people from every group. All of them are awesome people and its sad to see people that could be great friends not giving it a shot.
This is probably why high school hasn’t been fun for me. I don’t feel accepted anywhere. No one has made an effort to include me. I can’t say I have tried though.
The people that I do hang out with usually only hang out with us but we do sometimes hang out with others. Our group is made up of lots of different people too. We’ve got a stoner/drinker/partier, there’s a redneck, there’s a hardcore chruchy person, there’s me which I guess you could call the nerd, and so on.
Why does this happen? I don’t know. I wish I did.
