And you seem pretty good for someone who started last year. I've been learning for ten years and I don't know to introduce myself properly!

Anyway, going back to the topic where I might be able to go abroad for uni, candidly I prefer Canada over the US. Even though I have more family (a.k.a Goodreads friends) in the US than in Canada, Trump......
Bye bye! I'm about to go fail in yet another exam.
Yeah ugh Trump :/ I don't blame you. You know what, I've actually considered applying to some Canadian universities because of him and also because they value academic record more than extracurriculars... finding an extracurricular activity as a writer in HS here is harder than you might think...Anyway, I'm off to talk to Knox about the literary magazine today or tomorrow so....
If I go to college in Canada or the North we should meet up :D
There's a university in my state that has great programs in your desired fields though XD But they have interesting politics nowadays and quite a few struggles with identity so... I can see why you'd prefer Canada because a lot of that is due to Trump :/
I still can't believe Trump won the elections! :/ My first choice will still remain the universities of England, but if that doesn't work, plan B is abroad :) Yep, we should meet up then!
Good luck, Alia! :) I hope things go well with Mr. Knox!
Okay so Hallie doesn't know anything to fill up her paper since she doesn't recognize half the words. She randomly writes some rubbish and waits for the bell to go. It takes forever, but it finally rings. Not to mention the invigilator messed up her mood at the beginning of the exam, so she just wants to get out of there. The teacher begins to collect the papers. Register number 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9? She stops at the girl before Hallie and refuses to collect her paper until that girl finishes writing and hands it over. Hallie wants to scream, "Go back to her later. Take mine now." But she already got in enough trouble with this teacher who she didn't know existed in the school. Register number 9 takes forever to finish and by then Hallie has already rolled her eyes 10 to the power of 4631717260531 times. And finally the teacher collects her paper and ten minutes later, she is running down the stairs to catch the bus only to find that neither the bus, nor her friends were there yet.
^That was silly, but brief summary of why I'm in a bad mood now.
Same here occasionally! Of course XD You have great schools. That would be great though! XD
Oh thanks XD it's not a big deal actually, I'm just asking when the submission deadline is and if I can be introduced to the faculty advisor who's across the hall also teaching English XD

XD
So I got to school too late this morning to go bother him... plus, one of my friends was fretting about a bad grade and I felt it was incumbent upon me to help her. I ended up just going to my first period, and had no chance to talk during the class. I'm afraid to talk about coming in at lunch because my closest friend in that class doesn't like him at all. She believes that worksheets and notes are preferable to discussions... I see them as life lessons, ones to be held on to. But then, she's an ENTP and I'm an ISFJ.
At lunch I made a pointless trip to my history classroom and asked my teacher if we had project work time in class tomorrow when I was already 99% sure of the answer. My butterflies were too much.
Finally, I walked back into his room. Lo and behold, he was giving an oral reading quiz to absent students. I walked down to the cafeteria to see my friend. Ate. Talked. Then vacated the table, walking up the stairs to the second floor. A teacher passed me on the stairs, but I'm afraid of falling and was concentrating, so I didn't see who it was until he had descended the steps.
I decided to wait in his room. Waited for like 10 minutes. Disappointingly, the bell to go to my next class got too close for my liking. I go to my class after lunch early to avoid clogged hallways. With another 10 minutes to spare, I hurried down the stairs AGAIN and passed the front office. As I turned the corner I saw the individual who had just walked out.
Not to mention that a girl who sits near to me in math ran into me like 4 times during this whole thing. I saw her in the hallway while going to history, in the English room, in the hallway while going to English again, and then ran into her when I left English the second time and she came back in to get her friend's lunchbox... XD
After a while we got tired of saying hi! And when she sat next to me in math we laughed really hard XD
So there you go... Alia sets out on her journey to become a writer and ends with the acccomplishment of running into a tablemate in her math class four times. And misses the teacher twice.
Poor Alia...
Sorry for the detail, i'm procrastinating.
My plan is to go in early enough tomorrow to have a talk because he's usually not occupied in the mornings.
If it comes down to my club meeting versus meeting the adviser at lumch tomorrow I'm choosing the latter!
And I'll let you know! :)
Hals what do you think about Toby Cavanaugh
Also what do you think about Jenna being "A"

I love Toby!!!!! :D
Jenna being A would be amazing! She has all the motive. What do you think about Wren being A?
I have Chemistry and I flipped through four topics out of fourteen, and of course I'll spend the morning on Goodreads.Why do I want to fail this badly?
There was a planned outage earlier. I wasn't even on then :)

As it is, I'm not even expecting to get much information until I'm connected to the adviser- Mr. Knox has too much on his plate to know all the details of programs he isn't involved with.
But he offered to set me up and who am I to say no?
I'll inform you of what happens! XD Thanks for believing I deserve a chance! I have a feeling that true writers at my school are few and far between so if I make it good enough I won't be rejected.
Preparing myself for scenarios in which rejection is commonplace... good to get somewhere first, though!
Of course! I'd always encourage those with talent! :)
Something funny (okay maybe it's not funny, but I found it funny) just happened. I'm pretty sure there is a second part to it at home, so I'll post about it once I get there xD Anyway, I think I might pass in Chemistry. *fingers crossed* It's English tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep!
Oh wow thanks! Not sure how talented I am and trying to gather ideas without a framework is hard but I'm trying. :)Haha! XD
Easy and painless ways to die, huh? Thanks certain member of my group!

Aw thank you :)Well my story from yesterday continues... trying again at lunch XD
Phone Call
Today, after the exam, I was walking over to the spot where my bus is usually parked when I spotted a classmate. I think I previously named her A, so I'll call her that. No, not the Pretty Little Liars A. This girl is so sweet and nice and definitely not a stalker! xD
A asked if she could borrow my phone and of course I let her. I was standing and reading the notice board (nothing new, though) while she made her call, and after one try, she tried to call again when she said, "Hallie, I think I called your dad by mistake." I said it was fine and that I'll explain to him later.
However, my dad called me back. So I picked up but something was wrong with my phone: I could hear him but he couldn't hear me. He called again, but the same occurred again. I was busy saying, "Hello Papa! Mistake! Mistake!" And all he said was, "Hello? Hello?" It was weird.
Then I went to the spot to wait for the bus and Mum called. I came to know when I got home that my dad had called her and said that he thought my phone had been stolen! No one was speaking, so he freaked and began to ask when I'd be back and so on. Only after I explained to Mum did she call him and tell him to not fret.
It was really funny for me, though! xD

Hi Raven!!!! :) It's been so long since I talked to you. I hope your life is going well!

Not really. Im ticked at my brother and now at someone else
*Hugs back* Ive been trying not to cry everytime something happens
You can always come to me if you need help, okay?
I used to never really get arguments on Goodreads now sometimes I feel like Im becoming a bully, something I haven't been wanting to be
I don't think you're a bully; most of the time, you are the victim. Like Alex - that certainly wasn't your fault. It's probably because you like to voice out your opinions, and some people just don't agree with it.

I like Toby too!
that is true. Jenna does have a lot of motive to be "A". it could be either Jenna, Ian, Ali, or Mona.
I was like screaming in some of the earlier episodes, when the girls were thinking that Noel was "A" I was going crazy because I didn't want Noel to be "A" because he's different in the TV show, but I still like Noel.
