I can't think of a clever title

It's about time I release a blog, isn't it? Hell, it's about time I actually use these forums. In this blog, I'm going to be examinating everything that's been going on in my life recently. Think of it as a third and final blog together with "Life sweet life" and "Scythe wheat scythe" that explains my schoolwork and what I've been doing recently.
First of all; school. I've been writing so much about school lately, mostly because it's my final year in ground school and I'm really focused this year, I wan't the best grades possible so I can get into a great "upper secondary school (or "gymnasium")" and into a science course. Well, now the grades have been placed (or, as of tomorrow they have) and it's only looking semi-bright for me.
I only got a G (D) in Spanish which was absolutely horrid, I (as well as my classmates) were almost certain I was going to get VG (C/B). So there went 5 total points. Right now it's looking like I'm going to land at about 280 points. The preliminary score needed to get into the course I'm applying for is 275, and that score will most likely be raised (to up to as much as 290, maybe more). Right now I'm just crossing my finger that it doesn't raise to more than what I have, then I'll have to settle with a crappy school where the score needed is 170. To clarify; 320 points is max and is what you have if you got MVG (A) in all courses except one, as your lowest grade is always excluded when counting points no matter what. Out of 17 subjects, I currently have 11 MVGs, 2-3 VGs and 3-4 Gs. This means that I'm highly above average, and the school that I'll get placed in if I don't get into my primary choice has a standard of below average. This does indeed sadden me.
That's all I can say about school I suppose. I guess I owe you all an update about me and my girlfriend; we're still together, 5 months now. It's really amazing how fast time has passed, things are really going great between us. Not really much to say here I guess.
On friday me and my class are having a grill party, as a final activity together. Seven of us are going to get high, I'm going to for the first time, I'm excited but also a bit nervous (especially about whether the police arrives). I suppose it should be fine, but, what if, you know? Otherwise it's going to be really fun, I'm looking forward to it. I have a lot of close friends in my class that I don't see nearly as often as I should on my spare time, so I suppose it's nice to have a forced meeting like this.
I want to talk about a game that I've discovered. It's an online competetive browser game that I know you're all familiar with. Why? It's Tetris. Tetrisfriends.com is a website where you can play Tetris vs others (I'm particularly talking about their game called "Tetris Arena" now. It's really amazing how a game as old school and simple as Tetris can make competetive play and be so addictive to play. I'm currently rank 15 (out of 20) in the arena, so you can tell I've been playing quite a bit. You need to have some fast reaction time (though you develop it through the game), but I'm sure a lot of you would be really good at it and more than that you would enjoy it, so you should all give it a shot. If you do, add me as a friend, my nickname on the website is ILookLikeCalzone, it'll be a pleasure to me if any of you started playing.
I'm afraid I don't really have a lot more to say in this blog. It's kind of a short one, I know, but hopefully you should manage with this until I can gather information for a new one (maybe in a month or possibly two).
I promise I'll start using the forums more now that all the schoolwork is done, there's just really no interesting threads up right now, so go create some (I'm too lazy to come up with ideas).
