Smart Teenager: The Ultimate Oxymoron

...I knew that it was going to happen.

I've got to say that I'm officially the biggest keener on the planet. For the last four weeks, I've spent an insane amount of time running around organizing everything, from which textbooks I need to orientation. By August 5th, I'd done just about everything I could think of.

And, University starts in a month.

I've got to say, I feel insanely cool.

I certainly seem to die on the internets a lot.

I was nominated for Valedictorian.

I have absolutely no idea how that happened.

...yay?

It's official.

I'm the most arrogant ass on the planet.

Why, you may ask?

( Well...Collapse )

...I'll just not type any more...

Me: Hi there! What can I get for you?
Customer: I'll have a Grande Cinnamon Douche Latte.
Me: ...I beg your pardon?
Customer: A Grande Cinnamon Douche Latte!
Me: ::tries not to laugh and fails because I'm secretly twelve::

And to think that back in November I wanted to quit my job.

In what universe did I think that taking AP Calculus was a brilliant idea?

I decided to do the countdown thing on the PW community. Because, I really just want to put off doing calculus and figuring out dinner plans for my friends and I. Notice how I’m trying to make it sound like I have a life.

How noble of me.

( Can I get any cooler? I think not.Collapse )

It was probably the best class I've had in a while. Apart from the fact that I had all my friends in it, the teacher was pure awesome.

Besides, we always were able to have such fine and stimulating intellectual conversations, like the following:

Me: So, you read "The Picture of Dorian Gray?"
Nolan: Yes.
Me: How was all that homoerotic subtext for you?
Nolan: ...There was none. He liked a girl.
Me: WTF?!
Nolan: ...what? He did like a girl.
Me: But... the subtext! How could you not see it?! Oscar Wilde is FAMOUS for that sort of thing!
Nolan: Why do you see homoerotic subtext in EVERYTHING?!
My English Teacher: ::is passing by::
Me: Mr. Freeborn, did "The Picture of Dorian Gray" have homoerotic subtext? Nolan said it didn't.
My English Teacher: ...Nolan is completely wrong.

And...

Dani: ...I feel really bad in saying this, but I think Horatio was gay for Hamlet.
Everyone except Nolan: I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING.
Nolan: ...Wtf guys? I don't get it.
My English Teacher: Nolan, I think you need to invest in some new gaydar.

Pwnd, Nolan. Pwnd.

I like how we're all secretly twelve inside. But, he was sort of right. I do sort of see homoerotic subtext in everything.

Why I do however is another story to be told another time.

I am probably the single most boring person on the planet.

What happened to you, Dramatic Moron Me of olde?
