First day of hell

Well here I am documenting my first day of grade 10. In a summery, there were good and bad parts, but the whole day was very strange.

The day started with the bus ride. My bus came a bit late. I got on the bus only to realize how strange my bus driver looked. He was Spanish or maybe Mexican. His hair stuck out in weird ways and the rest of it was pulled into a ponytail. He had a moustache and squinted eyes. The funny part is that Kristen (not me) described him as an "illegal immigrant with a ponytail." He was a really bad driver. He drove extremely slowly and couldn't even stay on his side of the road. He still managed to bump us around everywhere. My head and shoulder smashed against the window every few seconds. When we were near the school, I realized no one was on my bus that I spoke to aside from Kristen. Thankfully, my bus was almost crowded and would probably be full next Tuesday, when the grade 7ers would be there. Why is this a good thing you ask? Well then the bus would be too full and I would switch to my old bus just like the last 2 years. Yay! *fingers crossed*

So thanks to the Spanish guy's slow driving, we got to school late. Everyone was already in class. I rushed off to TAG class (homeroom) and was the last to arrive. My TAG teacher since last year, Mr. Patenaude, handed me a new, yellow schedual that had some changes on it. I was going to have Commercial arts instead of Ethics!!! (You can say I was happy). I got assigned a locker that is squished between people from almost all sides (It was better than my friend's, her locker is non-existent) and for the first time ever, my TAG teacher got my last name right.

In science, the teacher's name was Mr.Riedl. He mumbles a lot, so I guess it's a good thing I'm sitting in the front, middle of the class. *rolls eyes* I guess I could describe him as one of those teachers who laughs at his own jokes when no one else does. He also advertises a lot (I know, strange) ("You should go to Bureau en Gros, the calculators are $5, maybe you should get 2 in case one breaks, I buy some every year", "You should stock up on Hilroy books, they're usually $1 each, but now they're 56 cents for 4!!! Stock up on those too!" He also gave us homework, ugh.

Then I had music. I have the same teacher as last year (Cianci). She's okay I guess. She likes me so I get 99 every term. :) Our class got combined with emmersions so we have like 45 people in our class. I am one of the 4 trumpet players.

Then, I was supposed to have commercial art (art on the computer). My whole class waited outside the classroom until we realized we were supposed to follow the white schedual and go to ethics (ugh). We went to meet Mr. Litschauer (the crazy old religious guy). Even though starting Tuesday we would have commercial arts, he gave us a lecture about how kids will rule the world someday or something. He got really into too, started talking about how changing a baby's diaper is a big party (as I said, cuckoo).

Then I had math with Mrs.Bagshaw. She was weird. and when someone told her she was creepy, she agreed. She gave us mind puzzles to do, but all in all, she's nice.

For french we had Mr.Sciannamblo, who I already had last year, he's a good teacher.

So my first day of sec 4 wasn't bad although a lot of strange things happened and I have school again on Tuesday. I still have to meet Mrs.Allard (commercial art) and Mrs.Clarke (History). I'll update you on them soon.
