last blog!omg!

I cant believe that 9th grade is going to be over in 2 weeks! I had so much fun this year. I got to meet with new friends. I felt like i had to leave all my friends in Georgia but i still had them on facebook they talk to me from time to time. Our bonds will never be broken and so is this new one that i just made this year. I will still remember the seniors forever. I will meet them 4 years later. I might be playing lacrosse with Chris in college. I really enjoyed being on the lacrosse team over-all. we had many hard practices but the season was really fun. we won 10 games and lost 4 games. Winning was fun as well as getting experiences. We got stronger as a team. Although the seniors will be gone next year, I am sure that we will work even harder and get better. Chris is a big loss for our team but we will cover it by practicing with coach. I heard that we will get an assistant coach next year. I hope the coach will be able to coach us during our off season. Next year i really want to go to sectionals. We need to win at least 3 games.

I'm really worried about grades next year because i have to take so many classes. And that means more exams.

The thing I'm really excited about is getting new 10th graders. I really want to meet new people. I really want to be in the G1 dorm just because i don't like F2 supervisor. He is so annoying! I really he gets fired. I also don't want to use the F2 bathroom. Its the most filthy toilet i have ever seen. There is a piece of crap on one of the toilet seat!ALWAYS!

There is so much things going on in the last month of 9th grade. LAB reports are extremely hard. You have to use excel and calculate 100s of numbers. Exams are really hard this quarter. Placement test we just took today i flunked on was something everyone was studying until 2am last night. I'm probably going to be in intermediate class next year.I had to write graduation grams until 2 last night. so i couldnt study.

I cant to wait to go to japan. i get to eat lots of delicious food and play guitar hero all day.
That reminds me! i need to go bye guitar hero games this weekend! That reminds of something else! packing my stuff! i have so much things to do. but its only 2 more weeks and its all over.
When i get home, i will be sleeping 10 hours a day and playing games 4 hours a day and eating 2 hours a day and watch tv for 6 hours a day. Great plan right?
ill be walking around the town for the rest of the day since this will be my second time visiting that town. We moved to nagoya just 5 months ago. I really want friends in nagoya because it will be boring staying there for 3 month. another thing I'm planning to do is buying an iphone.

Another thing is installing windows 7 on my computer. I'm really excited.

Thats all for this year have a great summer!

fun trip

The Boston trip was really fun! I think it was one of the wizest way of spending my money. That trip was difinately worth $300.

Friday-

we left keio at 3:30 pm. the traffic was bad so we were on the bus for 4 hours. We had it scheduled for 3 hours.but oh well it was fun in the bus and i had a great watching movies. I slept during The Night of the Museum. I only slept for an hour. When we arrived at the Hotel i took off my shoes and jumped on the bed! i was very tired i almost fell asleep.i soon relize that we are going to leave in 20mins. Then ms.Bendlin said to me that i need to turn in my form in kanyos. Luckly there was a computer in the lobby. I went online and took care of the form. Then we went to a golf place 10mins from the hotel. I thought it was going to be boring but it was actually really fun! I was ranked 2nd in our group. We stopped at wendy's on the way back but wendy's was not open even though it says "open till 2am" so we went to the pizza place right by wendy's. I split the pizza with 4 other people and we only had to pay $2 each. Then we went back to our room. Everybody brought their swimsuits except me so they decided to go into the pool. I put on my underwear and shorts and jumped into the pool. at first it felt weird but i got used to it. We had so much fun in the pool. we only had an hour of swimming.
That night we stayed up played cards and talked until 2am.lol

day 2 in boston-

We woke up early at 6:30 and went to breakfast. We headed to Plimoth Plantation which took us an hour to get there. I slept the whole time on the bus. Plimoth Plantation was the most boring part of the trip. We could have made it fun by playing hide and go seek but we were tooo worried that we will get lost. so we took the smart way and just stook together with some other group so that we wont get lost. The only thing i bought there was 4 sticks of honey which was $0.35 each. I ate 2 of them right after i bought them. then i saved the rest. Before we ate, we played around the little hill. Then we had lunch there and headed to Harvard university. On the way to
Harvard i noticed that 2 sticks of honey was missing from my pocket. then i realized thati droped them when i was playing around the little hill at plimoth plantation. I slept for another hour o the bus and we were a t harvard.actually we had to walk to harvard. I bought some suveneir for my club and a harvard pen for my parents. I didnt want to spend much money for some t-shirts that i will never going to wear. so i didnt buy any t-shirts but some of my friends bought them. all my friends bought a pair of sunglasses for just a joke only for that day. It was basically a waste of money.lol then we went shopping at boston we spent alot of time there. we ate lunch there and i had the famous boston clam chawder. it was good except there was some sand in the clam. I went to abercrombie and fitch to get a swimsuit cuz i was the only one sho jumped in the pool with a normal shorts.lol the abercrombie store in boston was huge. It had 3 floors. We went back to the hotel. me and kei got hungry so we asked mr.kringle to come with us to wendy's.lol
THANK YOU MR.KRINGLE!!!!!!
then i put on the brand new swimsuit and jumped into the pool.we played in the pool for almost 2 hours. we had fun until a family came in. The little kid was annoying cuz he didnt know what he was doing and his mother had one of those racist eyes. his father was a normal obese father. Thye mother tried to go into the jaqoozee but she said that the jaqoozee was dirty and decided not to bathe in it. And we were not the ones who made it dirty. It looked like it was dirty cuz there was millions of tiny little bubbles in the water. We had fun once they left.That night we stayed up late until 2.

Day3 in boston-

We went to the aquarium. I had fun there but the 3D movie made me feel very sick. I almost threw up so i closed my eyes and went to sleep. we head home.

That was the whole adventure of boston.

thats all have a nice day!

Boston!

I cant wait for tomorrow to come because we have our exciting Boston trip. I signed up with out thinking and people told me that we have our last home game on this saturday. I didnt care because there are 2 goalies and nikuman is so much better than me. There were some students who thought that there were going to be a game on saturday and dicided not to go. too bad for them, the game got canceled. the thing is I got so scared yesterday....

nikuman, our starting goalie prank called some guy and he got caught.lol and he told me that he might get a penalty 3. Then I analyzed the situation and I thought we wont have a goalie for Saturday's game since me and nikuman are gone. that was before I herd the new that the game was canceled. So, I freaked out got worried about the Boston trip. after yesterdays practice I herd that the game was canceled. I was so glad.

Today I herd that nikuman will not get a penalty 3. I was relieved! I was worried that I was going to become a starting goalie. with no worries I can go to Boston! yay-

but I still have one little problem. I don't have a swimming suit and that's not good. I want to go swimming with everybody in the hotels pool but the only place I could get a swimming suit is the aquarium which we will visit in day 2 of Boston. (I think...) this is far beyond bad......
I'm thinking of going to manhattaville to get some....lol
naaaaaaaa forget it. I know I will forget to buy them after the game today. and plus I'm too lazy to walk all the way over to manhattanville after a tiring game. and I don't even know if they have them or not. so I don't think I can solve this problem....lol

Don't worry, I'll do SOMETHING in the ALONE room while everyones having fun at the pool. lol

I'm pretty excited for the trip. mostly I'm excited about the bus ride. Some bus rides are fun and some are not. But this one will definitely be fun cuz its 3 hours long. If it's boring I can always go to sleep with me ipod in my ear. 3 hours is a nice amount of time.

One more thing that I'm excited about is going to Harvard. I'm planning to go to Harvard after graduating Keio University for MBA. (if i can lol) I'm really excited to go to the best university in the world. I'm excited to see their campus.

I have to pack my stuff tonight. I'll just bring a duffel bag since its only 3 days.

Today we have a home game and I might be a starting goalie.

Wish me luck and have nice day-!

busy week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

soooooooooooooooo many events and games this week.

Monday- we had an away game with pleasantville. we won that game 11-1. the thing about their team was the lack of sportsmanship. they called us fucken japs and they played with unnecessary roughness. so they were pretty much the worst team we ever played. they sucked with passion since we won by 10 goals.

Tuesday- we had our athletic day! yay! it was extremely exciting and we had a lot of fun. My team was E. first we started off by throwing tennis balls in the 10 feet in the air box. we lost every single time. next we did the "roll the huge ball" or whatever its called. we won those every time. next we did the "kibasen" we won those every time except for the championship. My group consisted of BOB-san,aka the dominater(front horse), ken chan(left horse), me(right horse), and riku-san. every battle we destroyed more than 2 groups thanks to BOB-san's tackle.lol
then we did 15ppl 16 legs. we lost every one of them except the last one. then we did the long jump rope which we won in the end. next we did the tug of war for 9th and 11th grade. we lost every war.lol finally we had some lunch and got prepared for our dance cheer. we were the last team to present. luckily every thing went well. next we had our 10th and 12th grade tug of war which we lost every war again!!! lol next we had heaven or hell game which i don't have a clue about how we did. my friend game me a bread and that was the end of it. right after that, the lacrosse captain came by and told me to get ready for today's game. i completely forgot about the home game. i quickly ran to the dorm to get ready.when i came back the lacrosse team were warming up and the other people were doing the relay.i could only see the end of the race. i saw our team winning! yay! i was really happy that we won! then i got ready for the game. suddenly i heard a great cheer coming from the gym. 2mins later i found out the team E have won the athletic day. i also heard that we came in 1st with the dance cheer that everyone worked very hard for it. dance cheer was something that everyone wanted to win cuz it was the only category that we spent days of practice before that day. i was very happy to hear that news.
even though i could not participate in the game we won! we had to face the team that we only lost to(FOX LANE). they had the first score and we had one goal right around the last min of the game. and we had to have sudden death because we tied. 15seconds after the sudden death face-off, our captain made a goal and we won! yay!

i was so happy to win the game and and win the athletic day competition.

Wednesday- we went on a day trip to the American natural history museum. we had to do some work on the 5 themes of geography. it was tiring and i was about the fall asleep. well we took some pictures and the bus ride to keio was fun. that's about it for the trip

today- we have a game with harrison which they are strong as FOX LANE or even stronger. that's what we heard. I doubt we can win.

this week is soooooooooooooooooooo busy/tiring and i am ready for the weekend.

wish us luck and have a great day!

so many gaaaaayyyyyymmmmeeeessss

this week I'm dead tired from games. we had one this Monday and Tuesday.
Monday 9-2 WIN!! (against the ducks???)lol

Tuesday 9-3 WIN!!( against westlake)

Today ??? hopefully win,( against briar cliff)

we had a home game which we played at the manhattanville colleges field because our field was not lined. I'm not sure if their team name is The Ducks but they were very weak. i was in the game for the second half of the game.we dominated. Their goalie looked like a 300 pound ball who cant run and a little midget kid who got killed in the game.lol The bad thing about the game was that it was raining. After the game my body was shivering and i rushed to the shower. when i got back from the shower i noticed that my room smelled like some animal came and took a dump! so i got my fan running and a bottle of fabreeze. even after 3 days of circulating the air it smells kinda bad.

i had to wear those smelly pads, gloves, and helmets for the Tuesdays game. it was an away game with westlake. when i arrived at their school all of their players looked strong. THAT was NOT true!lol again, i was in the game for the second half of the game. They lost every face-off and we scored in the first 15 seconds of the game. i knew we were going to win at that point.

Today we have an away game with briar cliff and this is our second time facing them. our first game of the season was with this team. and we won 11-5. we are afraid that our captain will be marked since he scored 7 times on the last game. we all think that we were really lucky on winning that game and everyone said it was a miracle. but i think we can win today's game because we got better and got more experienced since this is our 5th game.

Here's the good news today we got our lines on the turf field!!! yay!

now we can have our real home game. I'm really excited right now.

so far we lost 1 game and won 3 games. we lost to fox lane and i don't think we lost that game if the lines were drawn on our turf field and if it was a home game. Their field was horrible and there were soooooooooooooooooooooo many annoying bugs.i was in the game at the last 5 mins of the game.lol

thats all for today and wish us luck on the game!

got my grades back

Yesterday i got my report card! i thought it was definitely going to go down but luckily my GPA went up 0.01.lol

I got an A+ on geography!that's the best part to it.
what hurt my grade was a C- in math and a B- in English. i really wish that my grade would count as a honor class. if they don't change it and make it fair. I'm not even going to try anything to get a good grade. this is such a bad influence to the 9th graders because people don't know how their grades are going to be next year. so i feel like getting a food grades in 9th grade don't count. That maybe the case because there are some people coming to keio in 10th grade. 9th grade is like a warm-up i guess. I think i had a great warm up! now I'm ready to take the real classes in 10th grade.

I'm really going to try hard on Math so that i don't get dropped into intermediate. I should be aiming for an A.

I have no clue how i got a B+ in kokugo. although my grade didn't change. but I thought i was going to get an A in that class. maybe its because i got an 80 on the exam.
This proves that this school makes the exam count like 50% of the final grade. i think this is not fair because you cant recover if you bomb the exam. i really hate that!!!this school should count homework more. some teachers don't even check for homework which gets me aggravated cuz I'm the one who always does the homework. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
make them count like 20% of our grade.

one more thing i really hate having teachers who only give out certain grades regardless of how well you do in that class.EX: art, music, PE.

GPA doesn't really mean anything if this school is so lousy on grades. Sometimes i miss my old schools grading policy. i could always get on the Internet and check my grade and see how well I'm doing. right now you don't know how well you are doing just by the looks of tests.

most tests are based on memorization. it doesn't mean anything if i forget everything after the test. i sometimes study the night before and get a 100 on it and forget all of them right when i hand in the test.lol
that's really a bad habit for me.i need to fix that especially on kanji test. it wont do any good if i cant use them in the future.

My nihongo grades got a lot better. i had a B+ in that class. now i have an A in that class. im aiming for A+ for the last nine weeks so that i can get into the higher class or i can get out of nihongo class. if I'm lucky. i really don't care about where i am in nihongo class.
But i really want to goto intermediate kokugo. I am positive that i will try my best in kokugo next year.

I have an away game today. the coach told me that I'm going to be in the game but i don't know if i am going to be in the game cuz today we are going against a really strong team.it depends on the situation of the game. their school is in a AA category meaning they have many students in their school. i think our school is in the C range.I'm not sure.

on the last game i couldn't participate even though we were winning by alot just because our coach forgot to put me in the goal. i guess he was too busy on the other players. our offence is really weak compared to other teams. only our captain is the only one who is trying to make some goals. but we cant have strong offence if we don't work as a team. 9th graders should try more harder.

have a great day and wish me luck.

Exam is over!

Finally we are done with our exams. here are my results!

math:90 out of 150 (60%)
English:??? out of ??? (??%) i got 21 right on the crossword puzzle.
Biology:72 out of 85 (85%)
Geography:96%
nihongo:94%
kokugo:80%

Guesses on the Report card based on exams and other tests.

math should go down alot cuz i failed both the exam and one test. although i got a 98 on the first test, my grades will be in the C range.

English is one subject that i have no clue about the grades.I'm guessing that my grades will definitely be ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Biology will be a little higher than the grade from last nine weeks. last nine weeks i got a B now I'm thinking B+ or even A-. anyways this will be really good for my GPA cuz it has 5 credits.

Geography is the subject that i will definitely be getting an A+ on. This nine weeks test average up to a 100.first test 97 and second test Africa 103.and everything that i did up until now i got a Check + or above. yesterday i got a check ++. i can wait to see the geography column on the report card.

nihongo i did so much better. i had 85 on the last test. now i have 94! which is very good cuz having good grades in nihongo can make me move up to an intermediate class. although i didn't do so good on the kokugo test.i don't know about the final grade cuz i got a 60 on one quiz which i took at the beginning of the nine weeks.

kokugo i did a little bit worse than the last exam. i had 87.5 now it went down to an 80. oh well other test like 100% kanji tests will should move my grade up. so there should be no change in the grade.


im thinking that my GPA will be in the 2.9 range.

that's really not good cuz my goal for this nine weeks was to go up to 3.25 or above.
well, too late now lol

By the way... my goal is to get 3.25 by the end of the year and move up to kokugo intermediate and move up to nihongo honors. This might be hard for me cuz i don't have that many good grades in kokugo. I will be working really hard after the season is over.

I hope the the AC turns on by tomorrow cuz i cant concentrate with the really hot temperature.im sweating 2 gallons every hour. lol


guess what?????????????????????

i have an away ( it was supposed to be a home game. since Mr.Arias didn't put in the lines in our turf field it was changed to an away game)game today, even though i don't want to play under the hot weather today. I'm planning to just play the 3rd quarter and leave the rest to the senpai. being the goalie in the hot weather is the worst cuz you have to put on all the pads and everything. my senpai goalie is called "nikuman" which is like a stuff that is made from steaming the little meat in a bread like cover. In the field he really looks like he is steamed on the inside of the pads. When he takes off his pads at the end of each practice i can literally see the steams. lol
I'm sure I'm like that too cuz i have have for pads than him.

well that's all for today. wish me luck on the game.have a great day!
