First day reactions

[xp_spectrum]

I've got study hall and my phone lets me post on the journal system. So, thoughts on Bayville so far:

1) They really do love this school spirit thing, don't they? And what the fuck is our mascot supposed to be again? It looks like that thing from the baseball team in the mid-west.

2) Classes aren't so bad, so far. I'm gonna need help with the science stuff. Anyone up for junior chemistry tutoring?

3) Anyone else noticing the side-eyes we're getting from the townies? Or am I just paranoid? (good thing I decharged this morning and it's cloudy-ish)


Edit: I am, seriously, what the hell is this? Some kind of devil-bird?





Edit 2: It's a hawk. Apparently. I still think it's a devil demon bird from hell.

1) I almost punched a cheerleader. Thanks for dragging me off quiet like.

2) I've got the regular stuff, and they're getting me a helper or something for classes. Mostly it's a lot of sitting up the front - so lame.

3) Not any more then I normally get. I did have someone ask about whether I was rich. I think I hurt their precious townie feelings when I laughed in their face.

A cheerleader almost punched you, too, but I talked her out of it.

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

Thanks for that. It got a little heated there for a bit.

[xp-xavin.livejournal.com]

Look, no offense here, but maybe don't be a jerk to everyone and then they won't want to punch you.

Like, srsly, why're you so mean to people you don't even know?

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Seriously. I used to be really chill and now I'm here and even looking at people sometimes makes me want to punch them.

Maybe it's my mutation or something? Maybe I'm cursed with angry asshole disease.

[xp-xavin.livejournal.com]

That's messed up.

Maybe you should like, take valium or something to fix that?

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

You're telling me. Admittedly, you're the one coping the brunt given roommate.

Sort of. I've talked to the Professor and he's got me doing some art therapy so far. Not sure drugs are a good idea with the whole new mutant thing.

1) They are. Apparently they are holding tryouts for the cheer squad as two members couldn't come back over the Holiday break. I have a the flyer. I also don't know what the mascot is...I see Hawks written everywhere, but that doesn't look like a Hawk.

2) I am taking AP Phsyics. I may be of assistance with Chemistry.

3) I have been asked where I am from a lot because of my accent. I figured it was because I was from out of country.

It's supposed to be a hawk. I heard it got run over a bit after senior prom last year, when the football team spiked the punch.

CAW CAW MOTHERFUCKER.

[xp-clea.livejournal.com]

If that is truth, that is horrible. They should treat school property with care.

CAW CAW

I'm taking AP Physics this year but I took AP Chem last year so I can help with homework if you want. Chem was easy but the physics teacher is such a jerk. Like how am I supposed to know that we were supposed to read the first two chapters before classes even started?

No but seriously how did everyone else in my class know to do it but I didn't?

[xp-strange.livejournal.com]

Ok, so note to self. Find out about teachers before the first class

[x-otoxic.livejournal.com]

Aww crap I just saw the email in my spam folder. Not off to a good start.

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

So tell the teacher your computer ate it?

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

Why?

[xp-strange.livejournal.com]

So I know which teachers are the monster teachers who expect us to have done the reading beforehand and who are the nice teachers.

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

You're cute.

Just stare them in the eye until they have some sort of embarrassment reaction and then move on.

[xp-strange.livejournal.com]

Does that actually work? Wouldn't that make the teachers not like you though? That seems like it could be bad...although to be honest I'm not sure they're gonna like me all that much after the pranks start anyway.

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

Don't know, never tried it. Normally I just do the reading.

Pranks? Tell me more.

[xp-druid.livejournal.com]

Yeah, what Strange said. Bollocks to that.

[xp-druid.livejournal.com]

Cloudy discharge. Gotta love it.

[xp-strange.livejournal.com]

That bird is going to give me nightmares!

I'm doing AP chem and AP bio. Everything else seems normal enough.

I haven't noticed anything really, but then I'm still living on the whole Real American highschool thing.

[xp-clea.livejournal.com]

Do you want me to think of other things that could give you nightmares instead of the poorly designed mascot?

[xp-strange.livejournal.com]

Oh god no,I am never leaving my poor innocent mind to your tender mercies.

[xp-clea.livejournal.com]

You have the innocent mind? I beg to differ.

[x-plosive.livejournal.com]

I'm just going to sit over here with the rest of the dumb kids. Whoa, overachievers much?

[xp-dazzler.livejournal.com]

God I'm remembering why I don't do first days of school anymore. Next year I think I'll skip it. Maybe spend a week in London or something.

And oh god can someone please help me out with chem?

[xp-magma.livejournal.com]

This school is incredibly strange.

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

That's what I said.
