Mr. Phinizy asked us if there was ever any failures that taught us something in Senior Year, and he said he felt like him letting senioritis get a hold of him was a failure. But also, that there are so many people out there who say things like they wanna be doctors, lawyers, etc, but then complain about the littlest tasks. They ask him why he has 6+ periods during his senior year. People get so lazy during senior year and just wanna stop working. They think Senior Year is the end. But it doesn’t end after this. It’s just gonna get harder and there will be more work. So I just thought that was so interesting and I gave him a round of applause even though I was the only one clapping but it’s fine. SO ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO HAVE DREAMS AND GOALS, STOP BEING SO LAZY. Life doesn’t end after high school. There’s so much work left to be done.
lets play “which download link is the real one”
It was a cover of Rachel Berry singing “I Was Here” by Beyonce.
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pth7XgTD3Qo)
Anyway, people were commenting on it and saying it sucked and how it doesn’t sound like Beyonce. blah blah blah, but someone commented and said
“You know what I don’t get? This is a cover and it is done the way the Glee writers want Rachel to sing it, yet people are saying it sucks and Beyonce (the original) is better. I thought a cover was your own interpretation. This is Rachel’s interpretation. Sounding the same as Beyonce would be boring and even then,Lea would get attacked. This is a really beautiful song and fits Rachel’s story so well.”
I thought that was really interesting. I’ve seen probably thousands of covers on Youtube and people are always getting hate on their videos about how they sucked or how they ruined the song. But it’s a COVER. It’s not supposed to sound the same. You should add your own style or flavor. You may not be the best singer, but it’s your cover. and ultimately, how YOU interpret the song you’re singing. So yeah, that’s all.
I am so stressed out. It may not really seem like it but I have tooo much on my plate right now. Variety Show Auditions. Getting ready for all these banquets coming up. Expenses for Senior Activities. Trying to figure out financial aid stuff for college. FIGURING EVERYTHING OUT FOR COLLEGE. Trying to keep up my grades in school. Trying to exercise and stay healthy. Trying to get a decent 7 hours of sleep. AND THIS AND THAT AND THAT OVER THERE AND UGH. I just need some time to myself. Like there’s too many practices going on and so many people are asking a lot of me. I love helping out but I’m about to crack soon and I don’t know if people realize it. ON TOP OF THAT, people at school aren’t making it any better. People are giving me attitude, or being annoying, or just all on my case like GIVE ME A DANG BREAK. I’m under a lot of pressure right now can I just have a freaking second to catch my breath pleaaaaaaaase ugh. Every morning when I wake up, I realize how much I’m starting to hate school. & my English teacher asked us to rank our 4 years of high school, 1 being favorite and 4 being least favorite. Senior Year is like 3 or 4. Nothing is working out, my expectations were too high. EVERYTHING SUCKS. UGH. This was supposed to be my best year of high school and it’s basically the worst and I feel bad for wanting to graduate so badly but I can’t help it. This is getting long, but basically I’m really tired and I want summer. 10 more school days. 10 more days of torture. 10 more days of puttin’ up with everyone’s bs. Too bad my plate will NEVER be empty…agh…okay, back to life now.
