Classes I Don't Have To Go To This Week!

So, like most 17 year olds, right now, my life consists mostly of school. I go there 5 days a week, 7 hrs and 10 mins a day, and sleep through about an hour of it... but still, it's a big chunk of my time! SO why not write about what goes on there? Here's the rundown of a typical school day in the life of Jazzmine Kaml.

I wake up at 6:20am, then catch the bus at about 6:45am. I'm not the type of girl who spends 2 hours getting ready. I just roll out of bed and go. It's school, not a party or job interview. I get to Mingus at about 7:20.

Before first bell rings, I sit outside the cafeteria at my morning spot. I'm usually the first one there, soon followed by my best friend Alexia and my boyfriend Brice. We talk about mostly nothing, sometimes do homework, and sometimes eat breakfast (nasty!) until the bell rings. Then it's off to English.

 8:00-8:55 English, Mr. Kessel
      Contrary to popular opinion, I like English. I was lucky to get landed with Mr. Kessel this year. Last year, I got a horrible teacher who I strongly believe is manic-depressive, despite the argument that she's just irritable because she had a kid not too long ago. But Mr. Kessel is great. He's probably the best English teacher on campus. I'm grateful that this is my first hour class, since I'm not a morning person, and I don't really have to think in English. I breeze right through it without even trying.
          Cool People In Class: Brice and J.C. They sit on either side of me. J.C. is hardly ever there, so you really never know when he's going to show up. I always wonder why he skips so much, how he gets away with it, and how he's still passing (if he is).
          Most Memorable Memory: Playing hacky sack with a rolled up pair of gloves in the middle of silent reading time. Hey, we had a substitute that day ;P

9:00-9:55 U.S. History, Mr. Devore
     If there's one class I find the most difficult to follow, it's history. There are so many different events and dates that I just get lost. If I could sleep, I would, but Devore will yell at you if you're talking, sleeping, reading, or doing anything that isn't history related. I really don't like Devore. I don't think he teaches right, and he mumbles and rambles on.... ugh.
          Cool People In Class: Brice, Taylor, and Brian. I don't get to sit next to Brice in this class, but that's okay because I have Taylor next to me. She's really cool and easy to talk to. We can ramble on about nothing all the time. She helps relieve the boredom. Brian brings a little life to the class. He's really funny, and likes to take charge in presentations and makes everything humorous. You gotta admire people like that.
          Most Memorable Memory: I was asleep (it was heaven-sent, let me tell you) and all of a sudden I jerked awake. Everyone in my row was laughing at me. I had jumped into a puddle or something in my dream and completely jumped awake, with a loud thud. We were laughing about it for the rest of class.


10:05-11:00 Beginning Band, Mr. Henager
     The most impacting class this year. I had originally had Algebra II for 3rd hour, but after a meeting with all my teachers and my counselor, I decided I wanted to do band instead, since I was failing. From not touching a clarinet since 5th grade, I was amazed at how quickly I picked up where I left off and then soared to the top, soon becoming one of the best clarinetists in that class. I get bored of the material all the time as I continue to excel. It's amazing. And Mr. Henager is my favorite teacher. He always brags about how good he is, and you know what? He has that right.
          Cool People In Class: Brice, Josh, and Peter. Brice plays the trumpet, and alongside him is Peter. I think Peter is amazing on the trumpet. Josh is a sweetheart, he's a saxophonist and a good friend. The class is mostly freshmen and a bit hard to be patient with, but with upperclassmen including myself, bossing the freshmen around and whipping them into shape, it's bearable. They probably hate us :P
           Most Memorable Memory: Playing the flute solo on Ancient Spirits. I screwed up so bad, but the adrenaline rush was insane.

11:05-12:10 German I, Frau Klein (Mrs. Little)
      Ich liebe Deutschklasse! Sie ist sehr prima! Ich bin gut Deutsch zu lernen. Sie ist macht Spaß! Aber, ich besser als Deutsch schreiben spricht. Frau Klein sagt ich bin sehr gut geht. Das gefällt mir. Deutsch ist eine meiner Lieblingsklassen. :)
          Kühl Leute in der Klasse: Brice, Emily, Austin, Tyler, und Heinz. Sie alle halten die Klasse lebt!
         Denkwürdigste Speicher: Brice fiel über seinen Schreibtisch!!

12:10-12:50 Lunch
     Brice and I usually eat the nasty cafeteria food, then go off campus, down to Frys. Our friends Zach, Riley, Sapphire, and Bobby are usually there, among other people. We stand around and talk while they smoke, and then head back before the bell rings.

1:00-1:55 Beginning Guitar, Mr. Henager
     First of all, I don't play the guitar in beginning guitar. I did for the first semester, but discovered I really don't like playing guitar. So instead, Alexia and I play the flute. We usually play, read, and talk. It's our special time to spend talking about what's going on in each others lives. It's a fun class, though it drags on a bit.
          Cool People In Class: Alexia, Kanen, and Brian.
          Most Memorable Memory: Playing the flute for the first time with my best friend.


2:00-3:05 Earth Science, Ms. Badger
      NAP TIME!! No, seriously. I do nothing but sleep in that class. The teacher's pretty laid back, but the class is filled with annoying freshmen. I have to take Earth Science online this summer anyway, so I use 6th hour as my nap hour. Sometimes I stay awake when we watch a movie or something, but mostly I just like to sleep.
           Cool People In Class: Brice, Alex, and (sometimes) Scotty.
           Most Memorable Memory: Probably the time we went to the computer lab to do an online volcano game, but it was blocked on our student accounts, so Ms. Badger logged us on to her account. I went on youtube and looked at funny cat videos, while Scotty..... Scotty googled old man porn XD
