11-16-10 journal

Today went by really fast. Usually Tuesday's classes go by very fast, I don't know why. I am currently writing in my journal at 9 pm at night. I am also currently working on my history homework and my expository writing class. In the morning, I woke up feeling more tired than usual. I can't explain why, I slept earlier than usual and my daily routine was the same. I guess it is just part of a teenager's life.  During first period, which is Algebra 2, Ms.May was actually proud of the whole class for being quite. I skipped a grade for math, and went to Algebra 2 instead of Geometry, so the class is kind of difficult for me. Yet, I noticed that if I concentrate, it becomes very easy. During health class (2nd period), we learned about sex and the reproductive system with Mr.Rick. Although some students found it quite disturbing, I already have a lot of information about sex because of the American society I use to live in. Here, in Taiwan, everyone makes sex very personal, as for Americans, it is more open. Especially in a girl's case, you can easily tell a difference between American and Taiwanese girls. Today, I brought my own lunch because I was getting tired of the same disgusting and greasy lunches. So, today's lunch made my day very happy and satisfying. Third period was basketball class, which went by the fastest since I hate basketball it was very boring. The last period went through fast too, MUN. After school ended, I went to orchestra to practice some songs for the Christmas performance. Today's day was overall a great day. I got no one mad today, no one was mad at me today, everything seemed so peaceful.
