The first two days of school.

So school started yesterday and blah blah blah. I was excited to see friends, pissed that we were in advisory for like an hour before we could actually start the day.
Wore those new jeggings I got from Citi Trends with a black shirt and open-toed flats. Whatever, ya know.
This is what my schedule looks like:

A1: Algebra II
A2: AP Chemistry
A3: Fashion Design
A4: A Cappela choir
A5: Senior Release

B1: Anatomy and Physiology Honors
B2: AP Chemistry again
B3: Freedom choir teacher aide
B4: English 5 Lit Dual Credit
B5: Economics Dual Credit

So it's pretty much the same as it was when I went to go fix it last week. Only adjustments I want are to get out of AP Chem. That class will undoubtedly kick my ass. A Cappela should be very fun this year with the new teacher and all the activities she planned, with some help from Janet and I aka the president and vice president. And being a Freedom choir aide should be absolutely awesome. I get to experience all the things they do without having to participate. If only I could actually do embellishments...Janet and I can make snark comments all day in that class. As far as choir goes, we'll have a blast this year. Christmas party at Janet's house, caroling at Northpark Mall, then shopping during school, a lock-in in January, a trip to Disney World or Colorado in March, and lots of other fun stuff.
None of my other classes are really worth mentioning. They either suck, are full of idiots, or just aren't cool enough to be talked about.
Well, except for Senior Release. It's fun knowing that I get to have it, cause some others can't. And I have it next semester as well. Fucking awesome. It was great to leave immediately after choir yesterday when there was still over an hour and thirty minutes of school left.

But whatever. Even though this is senior year and will be full of amazing fun memories, I have this gut feeling that it'll totally blow this year too. Whatevs, ya know?

Looking forward to a TERRIBLE year!

So, as all of us seniors found out recently, our school is going down in ruins. For us, anyway.
First of all, there are 700 fucking freshmen coming into our school. Thank you Dr. Hudson, for making LCHS go from worst school to best school in our district. But it's ruining my life. Last year was crowded on the first day school. So crowded we could barely move. There was a significant increase in the number of students that went to breakfast and took up all the seats, from my sophomore year to my junior year.
And now, everything's changing. Our attendance office looks like a pharmacy check-out. I swear, it's nice, but it doesn't match the ghetto look of the rest of the school. It's like, counselors office (which they made look much better), main office (which looks the same as before), then pharmacy center.
And then there's the fact that they moved around so many classes. If I hadn't gone over there to see what was going on with my schedule yesterday, I would have come to school with a whole bunch of shit classes I didn't sign up for.
Senior Leadership, English, AND French 3 are all A4, the same period as Choir. I had to get rid of clinical rotation so that English could be moved down, and eliminate french and senior lead. all together.
And now Dr. Hudson's taking all the seniors out of piano. Almost all of the extra curricular classes are filled, so I have to take fashion design, which I don't mind since my bff is taking it too. And per Dr. Hudson's new rules, seniors can't drop out of AP classes, so I'm stuck with AP Chem, which is double block, and I'm also taking Anatomy and physiology, which means I have 3 science classes. I'm an aide for Freedom choir, which rocks, but a lot of shit is screwed.
I literally called, texted, facebook'ed like 10 friends to inform them of all this and advise them to get their shit straight too. Like, wtf?
My senior year is NOT going down like this. Not on my fucking watch.

Looking Forward to a Fantabulous Senior Year.

So, yesterday, all the choir officers were supposed to show up to school to meet with Mrs. Butterworth. Only Janet and I showed up. AKA the president and the vice president. Haha. But it was very interesting. We made plans for the year. This year, we're gonna dominate; choir's gonna be awesome, we planned lots of parties, get-togethers, and we discussed three possible trips.
I've been to the past two trips for the past two years, and they were amazing. Going to Atlanta was freaking amazing, but the 14-hour bus trip was NOT. Going to Corpus Christi and seeing all things SEA was amazing, especially since there were only 13 people to share it with. For some reason, being in a small group makes the experience that much better because you all feel like a family.
Anyway, the three possible trips are New Orleans, Colorado, and fucking Disney World. I HAVE to get a job if I want to go there. I know it. It's like $1200 and that's excluding money for souvenirs and shit. I can't go with $140 like I did in Atlanta, or even worse, $80 like I did for Corpus. lol. NOT happening. We're talking at least $300. More is fine.
Anyway, I also need to go talk with the counselors and go un-fuck up my schedule.
Like, let's do this shit.

Do I talk too much about soccer?

Whoops. My bad. But I've helplessly been in love with the sport ever since the World Cup. Soccer saved me from a boring, stupid summer, and that's why it's so amazing to me. It's so entertaining to watch. I think it sucks that America isn't a soccer country, compared to like, Brazil, where soccer's practically a religion.
Anyway, this post will be about my favorite soccer players. Sorry I talk too much about it, but like I said, I'm like in LOVE with these people and this sport.

1. Ricardo Kaká [the Maestro]
This man. It's all because of him that I first fell in love with soccer. So you can thank him for me never shutting up about the sport nowadays. When I first saw him, he was being sent off by a ref with an unfair red card, in the game against Ivory Coast. I was wondering why the crowd was pissed and why my parents and brother were like "wtff". Then I saw the replay, and was all "that's stupid. He gets sent off for that? That dude just totally over-dramatized the entire thing." Then I saw his "this-is-so-ridiculous-smile" and it was gorgeous. Then I gradually found out more stuff about him. Plus BEFORE the World Cup began, my brother wouldn't shut up about him. Thus began my extreme love for Kaka. I watched some of his previous games on DVR, he was doing good, but not great, cause of his injury; but I saw some vids of him on Youtube, and he was absolutely brilliant, which made me love him even more. So, that's the story. Thank you Kaka; for getting me into soccer. You're my hero.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo
Wow. This man. He's known here in America for being extremely hot. But there's more to him than that. More than the average overly-obsessed fan girl sees. This man has SKILL. This dude is a beast at free kicks. This dude is fucking talented. He's one of the best in the world; forget what the haters say. The commentators know what they're saying when they his exceptional talent. After I became obsessed with Kaka, I became obsessed with Cristiano. True, he isn't known for his humility, but he's actually a good guy. I watched videos of him on Youtube, and saw him visiting children in the hospital and giving them gifts. He even wanted to see if he could become a marrow donor. He gained a lot of respect from me, I can tell you that. And his talent, his skill with the ball, his agility on the field sure don't take anything away. So thank you, Cristiano; for furthering my obsession with soccer, and for making me see how much a person can take it to the next level.

3. Mesut Özil
I think I'm in love with this guy. I ALMOST put him before Cristiano Ronaldo. That's how crazy I am about him. He's simply amazing. He's 21 and he will probably be one of the best in future years. Everyone, including me, saw his amazing talent during the World Cup. He proved himself to everybody. Love this guy. LOVE.THIS.GUY.

4. Sergio Ramos
Or as I like to call him, RrrrrrrrrrrrAMOOSSSS!!! I'm like, in love with this Spaniard.. I've only recently gotten into him, like Mesut Ozil, but I've loved him ever since. He's tough on the field and he's a kick ass defender. He's really skilled. And he's only 24 and has plenty of years of success ahead of him. And I'll be rooting for him all the way. VAMOS RAMOS!!!!


5. David Villa [the Blaze]
Impossible is NOTHING. Especially with this man. He led Spain to victory during this World Cup with his amazing goals. He made a goal in like every game, and he's one of the world's best strikers right now. #whattabeast. "A scorching flame fueled by La Furia Roja". See Impossible is Nothing Adidas commercial. Hehe.






:D

Dear Twitter. When the fuck are you NOT crashing?

If I see this fat ass whale taking a fucking joy ride ONE more time...
So there I was, telling my idol Kaka to get better because he's having some surgery, and he was responding to the many messages he's been receiving from fans. Then this stupid ass whale pops up. I'm tired of seeing this thing. C'mon guys, do we need to make a color-coded schedule? We can't ALL be on Twitter at the same fucking time. I can be on whenever I want, because I'm Chantal, and being Chantal automatically obligates me to do whatever I want. So in light of this situation, I sincerely hope that the Twitter crew fixes this. Ban people, do whatever ya gotta do to get rid of this whale. Kay? Cause it's pissing me off. A lot.

Kthanks.(:

Mesut Özil rocks my world.

He's German, he's unique, and he rocks my world. His name is Mesut Özil. He played for Germany during the World Cup and did excellent. I looked him up before and thought he was pretty cool, but now he has my full attention. He's one of my favorite players. Plus he's totally adorable. He's only twenty-one, so he's fresh talent, like Alexandre Pato, a Brazilian player. I have yet to find out more about him. When I get interested in someone, I go the full mile, and find out everything about them. It only took me a few days to completely familiarize myself with Kaka's style of play and other things. I've been watching Ozil in the WC matches on DVR. I've also become interested in Spain's team. David Villa, Sergio Ramos, Fernando Torres, Gerard Picque, Iker Casillas, Xabi Alonso, Xavi, Iniesta, Jesus Navas, etc. So I'm all over the place now.
By the way, he's inspired me to try and learn German, which I've always wanted to learn. I know I said I'm trying to learn Portuguese. So I have to get further in that before I start with German. But I WILL learn them. Both of them. It's a challenge I'm willing to take.
