A Long-Awaited Update

Upon reading a post that I made a long time ago (not the last one, but the one before that), I am going to make a few... updates.

Update #1: The Manuscript

So that's done. Pretty fascinating. I got a .pdf, but I'm not allowed to share. It'll probably go on sale at some point electronically. Once I know about that, I'll post about it.

Update #2: School

Turns out, I was just bitter because I hated freshman year in general. Being a sophomore is nowhere near as bad as being a freshman (school itself is a lot more frustrating, but socially it's easier), which is not to say that I magically like my school. Because I don't. Stop judging me.

Seriously though. I would much rather go to Sealth. I'm waiting for the waiting list to open again so that I can sign up one more time just to see if I can get in, so that I can officially say that I'm a Seahawk as opposed to a Wildcat. But if I don't, tough shit because I've decided that even if I do get into Sealth, I'm not even going to do IB, so what's the point, right?

About that. International Baccalaureate is super good for getting into international schools. You may be thinking, "But you want to go to Oxford! That's in England! What's wrong with you?!" Well, the simple fact is, it's too much work for something that gives you a lesser result than if you were to do, say, Running Start. If you do Running Start, you can get all your credits while simultaneously be working yourself up to an Associate's degree. The bottom line is that you can graduate high school with an AA. How freaking awesome is that? And IB doesn't give you that. At least I don't think it does.

Anyway, school is fine, and I don't care about it, just as long as I complete it and get out as fast as possible so that I can go to college and finish that so that I can get a lot of money -- I mean a great job. I'll probably move to England anyway just to get the hell out of the country. Can I go to jail for saying that? Probably not; it's a free country. It's not like I'm going to blow up the Capitol. Because I'm not, you know, going to blow up the Capitol. Stop judging me.

What's that? I have a Tumblr? Go look, if you care enough. Probably not. But whatevs. Do what you want.
