I don't know why I am still doing these posts since I've been volunteering every Wednesday at the camp, but I guess that is just how things go. Maybe I can get extra credit on my quizzes or something cause I just failed another one. Geez. I think I might need to start trying again in this class cause my grades are sorta getting messed up.
So we had a big due date on Friday, good thing I finished everything on Thursday. MUAHAHA. I got to sit at lunch and watch a lot of people squirm about their incomplete labs that I did on my own in half the time.
I'm kinda sad that I missed the competition this weekend, but what can you do when an SAT comes up unexpectedly. I did get a 2200, which I think is pretty good for a sophomore. With another year of studying I think I will be able to break 2350, which is the goal.
Six-Weeks Exam is next week, something that I am not really looking forward to because it always drops my grade, but I guess if I do well on it, it will eliminate all the failing quizzes that I have that I can do nothing about.

I'm not really sure whether or not I should be writing this blog post as this week I volunteered at the Pierce Middle School technology camp with Stephens. Only 3 kids showed up, which was disappointing, but I got to spend some quality time with Alex Schultz and worked one on one with the kids for the last 30 minutes of the time.
Mr. Stephens was gone this week, which was a great relief. My sarcasm meter was starting to go off the charts and I don't know how much more I would have been able to take. Mr. Tessler is pretty cool, and he got graded this week, so we were on our best behavior.
All of my labs are up to date and everything is going well. I am understanding the execution of all the programming skills that we are learning right now, but the purpose of them is often quite confusing. I'm not sure how I would use these in real life...
I divorced Vignesh this week as my programming partner. I finally worked up the courage to do that. He has been dragging me down all along and just putting his name on my programs. Now that we are programming separately though, our relationship is mending.

I'm kinda disappointed that that I wasn't able to go to the competition this weekend. Even though I don't do very well, I still really enjoy them and I feel like they help me learn. There is also that added bonus of not having to do blog posts. Score. But now that I am not competing, I must return to the boring blogs and tell you how my week went.
I signed up to volunteer. Awesome. What a good samaritan, giving back to my community. It oughta be fun though, and we are writing in Scratch, so no challenges there. I hope the kids are smart though.
Finally finished pong. It gave me a few issues and was quite challenging, but overall I had a lot of fun writing it and feeling the warm success that washes over you when your program finally works that way that it was intended to.
I think I am going to start doing all the programming by myself. I feel like it will be much more rewarding and I won't have to deal with Vignesh who kinda just hovers. Backseat driver much?
