It's frankly scary

I've discovered a new joy, that joy is polymer clay. A moment on youtube became my solution to stressful weekend afternoons. Because make-up work and extra-extra credit will take a lot out of a person.

Since the first quarter of school has ended, I've been getting in a lot of cramming with missing and extra work. As bad as it sounds, I've managed to pull an optimus prime and make D's into B's. I'm not exactly satisifed with all my grades. *cough my only C cough* but you know what? whatever.

Honestly, senior year has been the ultimate year. Not a year of parties, illegal fruit beverages and regretful moves only Paris Hilton may commit. There's been so many shared conversations about homework, political party volunteer work and how we manage to get by on those 9/50 scores on tests. In my opinion, it's been so much work. So much has already happened and it was only one quarter of the schoolyear.


Recently I've had a revelation. And what really brought me to this revelation was my mother's recent obsession with horror movies. In the past week she has gotten through The Descent, The Eye, and The Grudge 2. And every single time these movies were playing, I've been freaking out in the same room. (I'm not a big scary movie fan.)

Watching these movies, there are people who let themselves go within the movie. These are the people that lose themselves and "encounter" everything the main character experiences. There are also people who become like the third person of the movie. Frankly sitting on the outside predicting what's going to happen next. I am that kind of person. While "watching" these movies, I'm finding myself predicting who will fall victim to the hideous creatures and when the scary jawless Japanese girl will grab her victims. I thought about it two days after. But in all honesty, two days after was really today.

I found a relation between scary movies and school. Just sharing that statement, it should be pretty obvious. I'm suddenly predicting when things are happening. When homework will be assigned, what certain teachers will make their extra credit policies, and when late work will be accepted. (If it ever ends up getting accepted.) I'm predicting everything like I'm predicting events in scary movies. However It's not only scary movies. It's very possible to find any "prediction revelation" within any movie. Like really bad comedies and Rated G animations. That's why some movies are given the title of being predictable. In some cases, an additional name as a bad movie.

I've been able to relate movies to school. Go me. Movies are very relative to everything to start with though. Dramas, sob stories and cheery animated flicks about the holidays and magical talking fish. We can find ourselves in anything no matter how odd or heroic we find ourselves. Movies are mild depictions from what normal people experience. I experience frantic moments and panic attacks about the ending quartile of my senior year. I saw that in scary movies.
