high school?

the first month of high school wasn't what i expected and not necessarily good. the first day was a chaotic mess and it was just...bad. it was easier than i expected and there wasn't as much work as my friends told me there was going to be, so i guess that's a good thing. i'm still not sure if i can trust the school. i've been to alot of bad charter schools so i wasn't expecting much from Animo. my middle school new west charter was so bad the first year it opened so i thought it was just the same with 9th grade. i think after this year i'll be able to trust the school. that is if they dont screw up and do anything stupid. and as for the teachers--i have no idea. my mom's a teacher so i know how they talk about their students behind their back all the time. well all my old teachers didn't have much to say about me cuz i didnt talk much and i still dont. but in animo i'm not so sure. i dont think their trust can be earned all that easily. well hopefully i can keep my grades up and do well and earn ppl's trust

My first week at Animo Venice i've found out they're extremely strict on the dress code and rules. like if your have "possession of a permanent marker" you get detention. i still find that odd. it's only been 5 days into the school year and the teachers are already giving us homework and making us take too many notes. i'm a little tired of being a freshman already, i keep hearing the sophmores and juniors making fun of how young we are or w/e. i don't like algebra OR the teacher, he's not all that interesting. i think for the first week of school the teachers are giving us a little too much work, we already got a project in english and too much hw in math. i've been in a small charter middle school since sixth grade and Animo is alot like it. so it's not that much of achange for me.
