Good news and bad news.
Good news: I did indeed get a note from all my teachers, and my privileges are restored for the break.
Bad news: As per his normal behavior*, my dad changed the conditions of the deal. Now I have to do one of those notes every other week before coming here in order to earn privileges for the following week. As if I have nothing better to do in class but prove that I'm not missing assignments. I just wish my dad would stay out of my fucking business, but no. He has to know everything about me every fucking waking moment. Not just this, either, but he expects me to tell him all the things I do on the internet, the only time he knocks before entering my room is when he tries to open the door and finds it locked (Not even the courtesy of knocking and coming in anyways, which is still pointless, but at least a little courteous) because I have no "right" to the privacy that I desire. I've tried to tell him many times over that it's not a matter of rights, it's not that I should get what I have legal rights to and nothing more, it's a matter of being NICE and granting me that little privacy that will hurt neither of us and do me a world of good.
OK, now that I'm done ranting about that.
I went to the bookstore yesterday; bought books 2-5 in the Narnia series (in the new distribution order). I've read the Magician's Nephew from the school library, and thoroughly enjoyed it; and I finished The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe earlier today. Loving the series so far. ^^
And, as my quota of herculean feats for this break, I managed to finish all my homework in one night. >_<
So, yeah. That's it.

Break time

Well, the last week of school before mid-winter break has officially drawn to a close.
One thing: I got signatures from all four of my teachers, even in programming, where circumstances seemed dead set against me succeeding. How is it that three separate assignments that I did and turned in could just dissapear into the void, anyways? Yeah, that caused a little bit of a pain in the ass for me, but I managed to wrap it up today.
Another: For the first time this semester, I managed to get homework in all four of my classes. o.o That means that I have Adv. Algebra (Story problems for systems of equations with three variables. Not fun. x_x), Programming (Making a game where you mix and match hats, heads, bodies, etc. to create a character), Mythology (ten essay-type questions on The Last Unicorn, which was actually a fairly decent movie), and Japanese (A Sakubun. This is going to be common terminology for me now, so it's a composition, basically a Japanese free-write). In other words, predictably enough, I got an amount of homework proportional to the amount of time I have off. Mochiron.
And another: STILL haven't fixed the internet on my new computer, which is turning out to be a major pain in the ass. And to exacerbate the matter, I'm being told not to use my old computer until I fix it, which effectively cuts me off from the internet. Which is why I had to wait until such an ungodly hour to post this. Shush! Naijo da.
As for the specifics, they have me baffled. The USB chord is firmly connected, the computer acknowledges a connection, everything. The only thing that's missing is the actual internet.
So, that's all for this session. I currently lack a clever way to close this entry. So, yeah.
