So this is Thursday, and this week seemed to breeze by very quickly. I had a math quiz on Monday; hopefully I did well on it. Then, on Wednesday, yesterday, we played Cap. for soccer. We won 3-0. It was kind of disappointing for me, because I was trying really hard to get a goal, and I missed some very good chances. I had a header bounce wide, which I think was my best chance of the game. It's good that we won though. Anyway, we're learning about Molarity in chem and its pretty easy once you get used to the formulas. We'll also be starting pH soon, so hopefully I'll do well. Tomorrow, we play South City at Mills, and they are a pretty good team. I think if we play hard we can win though.

Winter Break

During winter break, I went to LA, which is always fun. I really like going there because it's my hometown and I have what I would call city-nationalism towards it. I really needed this break because I felt like the schoolwork was overwhelming. I look forward to the second half of the soccer season. Also, I look forward to watching the Champions League on tv soon to come in February. Anyway, that's all I have for now, and hopefully I do well in school.

So what exactly does "like dissolves like" mean?
