ああ、 わたしも にほんごのいちねんせいです！
Got my first midterm grade... Comp Sci written. There was all this weird stuff on it that was never explicitly stated, and that I could've found out in less than 3 seconds with a computer. But I still did well on it <3 (I hope... 55/60. But who knows how it's going to curve.) There's still the programming part, but it was only out of 30 points and I'm pretty sure I aced it.
I also had my Japanese oral midterm... There were all these requirements of stuff we were supposed to say, but when it started... ugh, my mind just blanked, I wasn't paying attention to any of it, I just spoke xD We were supposed to ask 2 yes/no questions and 2 open-ended questions, but I have no idea what I asked... I just asked lots of questions, so I hope it was fine xD (She said it was good, but I don't know how good "good" actually is xD)
@English teachers banning words: Yeah, really and very are fillers and can always be taken out of the sentence. And she obviously just wanted you to use more sophisticated words... I mean, why not? (Yes it's annoying but it helps)

I only got to take it in high school though... My university doesn't even have Japanese :( *Is stuck with Italian*
My other electives in high school were:
Art (Which I took all 4 years)
Crafts/3D Design (Grade 12, which I hated)
Webmaster (A website making class, which also taught Flash a little, took that in Grade 12)
Digital Visualization (Grade 12, was a class where you learn how to use 3DS Max)
Computer Art (Grade 10, the teacher didn't want me to take the 2nd class because she thought I goofed off, then started kissing my ass and decided to let me take it because my mom complained... I ended up not taking it in place of Crafts)
Study Skills (Grade 9, total waste of time. I WAS going to start Japanese that year, but my middle school counselors talked me out of taking because they thought it would be too hard for me and forced me to take this :/)

Well... I can understand the issue about overusing 'very' and 'really' but if you don't allow modifying words under five letters, you're not going to get anything of quality. Plenty of 'sophisticated' words can be under five letters.

@Cravat: Yes there are sophisticated words under 5 letters, but a lot of "baby words" are short, so... And no, for a real, major essay that restriction shouldn't be enforced, but for something like an exercise it's probably a good way to expand your vocabulary.

I love Chem the most though. I mean, I made a couple of chemistry jokes over the summer, and my teacher said that if I made a little poster of them, then I could have extra credit. :D
For example:
What were sodium chloride and the lithium cell arrested for?
Spoiler: answer
What did the British chemist say to his girlfriend?

I actually was not supposed to be in those classes, but they put me in it anyway because I was misdiagnosed as having a learning disability.

Yeah, AP, no, not curved. And I only know I have the highest grade because my teacher told me afterschool. Which is weird, because I have to struggle to stay awake.

Wow, you learned more than me. Like, I understand what you said, we just never learned counting years or anything like that. The Japanese books we use are kinda on the lame side. I feel like I've learned a lot more in my German 101 class than I have been learning in Japanese. All the exercises are beyond easy and linear. I really don't understand why it takes some of the students so long to complete them when all you have to do is substitute one word for another. I mean, I guess I'm used to more complicated work with the last few classes I took in German, but still. It also doesn't help that my instructor makes us check our answers with a partner. I mean, what if neither you or your partner got the right answer and you don't know what the correct one is?? I still like the class, mostly because I finally get to learn Japanese in a formal setting...*Ahem* Buuut I digress...

Daaaayum, this is your first year and you already started on kanji?? Has your class already finished katakana and hiragana?? I'll start learning katakana next quarter and won't be learning kanji until next year...
But yeah, my high school didn't have Japanese either. We had Spanish, French, German, American Sign Language, and Chinese (but they started offering it *after* I graduated, which pissed me off because I also want to learn it
)

Anyway, yeah, we learned all of the hiragana and katakana characters in like... two and a half weeks >_> Also, we're learning a whopping total of 5 kanji right now... so it's not like we're going crazy with it xD

First year we learned hiragana and katakana, and learned kanji in second year. Third year was pretty much nothing but kanji.
The hardest kanji for me BY FAR were these little bastards: 勉 and 強. Together they read べんきょう (benkyou) which means 'study' or 'diligence'. Heard this one a lot.
Yeah, I had a really hard time with some of the kanji. And also the conjugation and numbers... WHY DO THEY HAVE SEPARATE COUNTING SYSTEMS FOR EVERYTHING?! T____T

All we've learned in terms of conjugations is -masu, -masen, -mashita, and -masendeshita, so... I'm going to enjoy that while it lasts xD And I went

Also, I recommend this site for help on conjugation. It gives you conjugation for any Japanese verb or adjective you put in. I also use Jim Breen's WWWJDIC and Denshi Jisho for looking up vocab words and kanji. These sites helped me out a lot!

You're school is weird...Wait, do you mean curved like the final average? When they're figuring out class rank? Because they DO do that. AP is a 1.10, regular stuff ranges from 1.00-1.08. Most of mine are 1.08-1.10.
Sorry, I was thinking curved like test-wise (you know, highest score goes to 100, and everyone gets extra credit?)

Weeeeeeeeird
At my school, the teachers just curved all the tests from raw scores to your actual score. They didn't do it so that the highest grade was a 100, and the next highest a 98, or anything like that, but just so that... basically so people didn't fail classes like AP Physics xD (where you weren't expected to get 100s on the test anyway)

School is so boring. Weird. When I have my timetable in English (forget? I'm Austrian -.-), then I'll show the timetable here, because the timetable sucks. :///
And the timetable is in my kitchen on the timetable-wall.

It sucks. On Saturday and Sunday I had a really bad fever/cold or whatever, and my voice was really hoarse today. At least I didn't have music today! A tip for people that ride the bus to school: never ride a school bus when your bladder's full. The bumps on the bus will just make it worse. On my morning and afternoon bus I really had to use the bathroom. It sucked. And my bus ride in the morning is I think 30-45 minutes long, and my afternoon bus ride is probably somewhere close to an hour long.
Have you ever had a math teacher that made you correct your tests? Mine does that. If we get ANYTHING wrong on our tests he tells us to take the test home and correct it. He also said that sometimes he counts things that are right wring on the test but he has the correct score of your test in his grade book. He's a sneaky math teacher. But I think that our table in math class is the table that Mr. Math likes the most because we have this guy at our table who Mr. Math likes a lot. It's not because he's a nerd, but it's because he jokes around with Mr. Math and he always writes "DUDE!" on his math homework. Then our whole table got into putting "DUDE!" or something else on our math homework except for this one girl. Once I drew a winking eye.
This guy that I know got staples on the back of his head because he fell backwards on his skateboard, so at recess when we were playing soccer and he had the ball my friends and I yelled, "C'mon Staples! Pass it here, Staples! You can do it Staples!" Then the teacher that was watching us remembered that he had staples on his head because we were calling him Staples, and he had to sit out because if you had an injury you couldn't really play anything. I feel bad for him.

This week's Red Ribbon Week, and tomorrow we're allowed to wear our Halloween costumes. I want to cosplay, but I don't want the girl in my class that I don't like to figure out who I would be. That and it has to be dress code. XP
On another school-related note, today in Nutrition class, we made calaveras de azúcar, otherwise known as sugar skulls! (YAY!! I've always wanted to make them~! Tomorrow, I think we get to decorate them~.) My Nutr. teacher takes classes over at WT in Canyon, TX, and I think the university is holding a Day of the Dead-type festival sometime this weekend, so we made sugar skulls for her to take over there. One of the bigger skulls I made kinda lost its' teeth when it was coming out of the mold. T_T My smallest one came out perfectly, and the one I laid out for my friend came out fine, too. -_- (Damn gravity favoring them over me.) It was really weird feeling the sugar/meringue powder/water mixture in between my fingers.. It looked like snow, felt like sand, and probably tasted like sugar. But it was so fun~~!

One of our junior high school's administration staff got an accident and passed away. ='(
Then, for Biology lab, the topic was about blood...and we had to use blood lancets.
Every student in the lab freaked out. One of my friend, a boy, refused to have his blood sample taken...he tried to run away and my two teachers went to chase him for 15 minutes before they finally gave up XD
We were doing 2 experiments at the time. The first one, blood type checking, was obligatory, and the second one, transfusion model, was optional (only 6 volunteers were needed). I was forced to participate in the second one, which means I had to use the lancets twice. T.T
...I freaking hate blood lancets >_<
This Thursday, we're going to the next town over to study in an international school for a day.
We also get the chance to stay with expatriat families for 3 days. It's going to be, like, some sort of cultural exchange program. Whee~

I just realized how mean I am. There's this dude in our class that's really annoying, and he sits in front of me during Math. During Math he was being really annoying, so I said, "You know what? Just shut up, nobody likes you." I'm mean.

THIS. OMFG I hate counting in Japanese. I don't have a problem with conjugating because we learned verbs in the "-masu" form so far, but I can't imagine it being as confusing as German conjugation can get. Present perfect, simple past...ugh, I forget the rest... DX

Yeah, you guys seem to go fast. I'm sure the students in my class would have a heart attack if they were going at the same rate you guys are. I've known how to read katakana and hiragana for awhile, it was just writing them down correctly was what confused me. I can recognize some kanji and know some of the different pronunciations of them, but it's very limited...

Well in Japanese in terms of tense there's only past and not-past... but then there's politness and formality, which is where I think it gets really crazy and horrible xD (And so far we only have -masu, -masen, -mashita, and -masendeshita, which are just the regular polite formal forms)

Other than that, I'm doing great. Failed two geometry quizzes. On logic. Failed an Earth Science quiz on streams. Failed a Social Studies quiz on cavemen. Failed an english worksheet because I missed one out of the thirty questions. WTF. But passed all the other stuff! Woohooh!
Oh, and in INTRO COMP, we were typing sentences, and instead of putting "Kia and Mara are sisters." five times I put "Mia and Maya are sisters." And lost points, not because of that (accuracy grading system), but because I did what he said and did every other line twice. Fail.

How the heck did you fail an English worksheet by missing one question? That's just not right.
Other than that, you're doing good in school... I guess.
I'm so glad we don't have school today and tomorrow. Although, I'll probably have to get started on my stupid Picture Book for Science. *sigh* Argh. I have a stupid cough and a runny nose, too. Grrrr. Then I have to finish my Superstars for Math and Social Studies homework. Then I have to read some more of The Adventures of Ulysses while writing my thoughts down.

Anyway, did really well in Comp Sci. Had my econ midterm yesterday and I thought it was pretty easy, so... :) One of my friends got the same answers as me on all the tricky questions. Anyway, all that's left is Math (after the break) and Japanese (tomorrow) and then we have fall break! Yay!

Umm... The Adventures of Ulysses is just one book about Ulysses.
Spoiler: The Adventures of Ulysses
I am so gonna fail Language Arts when we start Seminars. I didn't speak at all during last year's Seminars. I only said one witty comment that wasn't really that important.
I hate seminars.
