Free at last!

After two long terrible years of AP world history, we're finally free! We took the exam this morning. 

I found a couple of things funny...first, how after the test the proctor announced that we were free to go and literally everyone in the gym (around 80 people, I heard the proctors saying) started jumping up and down and screaming and cheering and hugging...it was like a beautiful scene from a movie where the underdogs finally win! Just awesome. I literally feel lighter now...my friend Leah and I started skipping down the street (after Friendly's of course) and we realized we were skipping a little higher than yesterday. (We skip often :] haha)

The second thing I found funny was that before the exam, it seemed that instead of cramming in some last-minute stuff, everyone exchanged horror stories of mental breakdowns and near suicide attempts...the main way everyone wanted to go was jumping out windows. Good thing we all lived.

In the middle of the DBQ essay I literally wrote "This document says the Nazis wanted to beat everyone at skiing because they wanted to prove Nazism was better than democracy. But I'll bet democracy was better at skiing because it's lighter."

The essay was about the Olympics. That one document literally said that the Nazis were convinced that to prove Nazism was superior to democracy they had to win at downhill skiing!

AUGH!@$#*%&^

By the way, you see all this stress? Well Monday is hug an AP student day...I highly suggest all of you go hug an AP student because after all that, we definitely need hugs. 

Here are some pictures from the Panic concert...there are some more from before the concert on my phone but my picture messaging is messed up :[

The tour bus (from Daniella's car).


One of the best shots I got of Brendan :]


anyway. Here's your FCC Complaint!

On this episode of south park the writers of the show felt it was okay to make fun about 911 and went on to say that our government and President Bush were behind the planes flying into the world trade center. I found this completely immoral, indecent and insensitive for a cartoon show or any show to make fun of one of the countries worst events. This is a insult to all AMERICANS and especially to the families who lost loved ones on that day. I would like someone to look into this and to have Comedy Central appologize for airing such an insensative show.

Dear Mr. Oversensitive:

I'm going to make fun about you instead of make fun of you, apparently. And that's what some people believe actually happened...they're making fun OF those people, not OF 911. That's all I'm gonna say.

Peace, Love, & South Park
