The first day of the Second Quarter... ungh

Yet another sleepy morning has arrived to mark the first day of the second quarter of the school year... and it makes me sooo lazy since I have to realize the fact that it's a normal school day yet again. No half-days, no short overviews of lessons past, no nothing. Because for some strange reason, I miss the long test week. It's surprising because it used to be the week I dread... must be because of the typhoon that prolonged it I guess...

There is a new typhoon coming in, though. Plus, there are also two Monday holidays. So, I'll be looking forward to those days... No Chinese! Yay!

Well, this first day was generally boring except for that eye-popping first-look at the Biology scope. Wherein our Bio teacher not only presents the whole scope, he also announces that the long test starts October 4. Hmmm..., not much a surprise but it makes the month of September sound shorter than it should be. Hehe.

It's Chinese that makes up most, if not all of the bore factor of the day. Heck, it's this shunned little subject that wrecks even the best days of a school year... Yawn...

Brad Garrett gets in paparazzi tangle
The 6 foot 5, 3-time Emmy winner who played Robert of "Everybody Loves Raymond" and current star of Fox's "'Til Death" has gotten in a tangle with the paparazzi after getting out of a restaurant. He was conversing with them at first but when someone suddenly insulted him, he punches one of 'em. And he's the wrong guy, too! His camera wasn't broken and the cameraman suffered none, if not minor, injuries. Luckily, TMZ.com, the website the punched cameraman works for, did not press charges for the camera wasn't damaged (how idiotic to prioritize the camera first LOL).

Brad Garrett played an underloved, underappreciated and oversized family member of the Barone clan in the beloved sitcom, Everybody Loves Raymond.-->
