School Rant

Okay, so, I've been absent for a long time.
The work for school has been so much lately, especially since all my core classes are honors. I literally get homework every day, and from 2-3 classes. Then I have to get my workouts in for the day. I pretty much don't have time to post. The time I'm done with everything is like 11 and I don't feel like writing an entire post.
Maybe, I could just still be transitioning into a school mode. But I have been in high school for more than a month now.
Besides that, I have a test in science every 1-1.5 weeks, a math test about every 2 weeks, a history test (which isn't that hard) about every 2 weeks, and a Spanish test about every 2 weeks. I enjoy English, though, as it's my strong point, and there aren't really tests- just essays and a lot of homework.
So, what's the point of all this information I'm sharing with you? I want to explain my opinion on the modern school system.
I've always been the type of person that desperately needs to get straight a's, just because I was taught that way. I can't say I have the best grades now lol but I'll probably end up doing anything in my power to raise them back up before they become final grades. But, as you can see, it's almost as if school is about getting good grades, and not learning to become something in the future you want to be. It's all about acing every test, memorizing useless information, and getting straight a's. Is that the only way to get into a top college? This causes so much stress to thousands of people. I thought learning was supposed to be positive.
I think that school should be graded on your willingness to actually learn and study the material to get a clear understanding, how much effort you put into it, and your progress over time. People would be learning more if school was this way, and it wouldn't be nearly as stressful.
Now, I get that school makes us take certain subjects in high school and doesn't let us choose a major that early. That's what college is for, because a lot of high schoolers still aren't certain about their future.
To help explain my argument, here's a video that explains a lot of what I said.

Of course, school has their reasons. I probably have flaws in my argument, too, and I'm sure a lot of you will disagree with me. What's your opinion on school?

I'm Really Busy

I'm pretty busy, to say the least. That, and when school comes, it's harder to find the motivation to post. I'll probably post something tomorrow, though. I literally have a test in science every week and that is starting to get difficult with all the studying and other homework. Anyways...
Bye. Lol.

Profit Trading

Hey guys!
In this post, I want to tell you about profit trading. I've been using it a lot lately when trading myself. Let me tel you, though, that the rarity system is really, really complicated, and extremely biased based off of the demand of certain items. Anyways, say you have a blue long.

Blue longs are currently worth 20 den betas, but also two bad longs. The best way to profit trade with a blue long is it trade it for two bad longs.

Finally, since these bad long are worth 12-13 den betas each, you could trade them each for those den betas. Then you would either trade those den betas for a better long than blue, or trade for another blue long and have a few extra den betas. This tip really helps you get rarer, but it can be time consuming. 

Anyways, I'll be making more posts soon! I'll see you next time.

The Creepiest Soundtracks on Animal Jam

Hello again everyone, it's Penguin here. Or is it?
It is. Trust me. I was just doing that because it's a creepy post.
In this post, I'll be showing you, in my opinion, the creepiest soundtracks on Animal Jam. A lot of you will probably agree with me about one of them. The other is rather unknown. The first soundtrack is the Deep Blue music.

This music is creepy, not because of what I hear, but because of what other people say. A lot of others say that they hear screams in the background. I'm actually not sure what I hear, though it just sounds like creepy, alien like underwater creatures.
The second soundtrack is from the Bitter Sweets adventure. It plays when you reach the outskirts.

The music is scary here because it actually sounds like something from a horror movie. These sounds are used a lot in them. Also, some sounds are almost like a jumpscare, as they happen out of nowhere.

There are many, many other soundtracks on AJ, and these are the ones that I think are the creepiest. What do you think?

Royal Garden Returns

Hello people.........
That's a great intro, right?
It works for now. I guess.
In other words, I have news for people who trade. The Royal Garden has (kind of) returned. It's now available in the September membership bundle.

Watch out for scams on these. Their former worth was around a black long, so people have been going around asking to trade theirs for long collars. Do not fall for this scam. Only trade for one if you want it, and trade after you know it's worth.
I have a few other posts planned for today. It's a three day weekend for me, but I do have loads upon loads of homework, with all honors classes. I have 3 tests next week, in one day. Hopefully I don't procrastinate too much this weekend, lol. Anyways, I'll see you all later.
