Highschool Musing

This will be short, I apologize. But in all my musings throughout the day, I've come to several conclusions, a few of which I'll post here.

Highschool Teachers are Brisk: I've noticed that around 9th grade, teachers lose some of the familiarity and personal bonding to students that usually attributes to small classes. As schools get bigger, as is happening all over, and classes get harder and more time-consuming, teachers lose time with which to bond with students. I've bonded easily with teachers all my life, and coming into Highschool is a bit of a shock when they hand you material with a formal air or answer questions curtly in a way of saying "How can you not understand this? It's simple." It's a bit of a shock for me. I'm in all PreAP classes (Just like honors) and I suppose that's the way it goes.

I'll post more later. I should also change those pictures; I got my braces off in August.

Snowing? In Houston?

Yes, my friends, you read correctly! It's snowing in Houston! It's amazing! My nose and hands are cold and it's hard to type this... I stood outside for an hour. It's lovely.
Anyway, it's been forever since I typed in this. I apologize. I should really update those pictures.
