I bombed the test guys
Well not bombed
But
It wasn't pretty
*smol rant time*
I don't get why stuff like bio and physics are still required once you reach high school. They should be encouraged, but i have A's and A+'s in literature and art and composition/writing and public speaking and music, and i... well, let's just say i don't in bio- and math, but i get why math is important. Except geometry. Why tf do i need to know how to calculate the area of an enneahedron. When that ever be useful to me. And it's not fair because i know that if i do poorly in those classes, even though i have no interest in jobs that include that kind of work, my chances of ending up in a profession doing something i enjoy plummet. I get that we still have to take the classes, but it's not fair that our grades should matter so much in something we're never going to use. In my current path (which i am just figuring out, i guess), it is extremely unlikely that i am going to be in a situation where i'll need to know the exact science of gymnosperm reproduction. But if i get a D- on that test, william and mary isn't gonna let me in to study english and economics.
At least according to my dad. Ugh i should stop worrying about this, college is far away and i can get my grades up before they really really matter
The good news is my mom made dinner in a pumpkin which was pretty cool

So um
I have heard stuff about The Poppy War and apparently it is pretty violent and also makes people cry a lot. Buuuuut it looks really good. Do you have any insights or advice on it? I ask cause i looked it up on common sense- which usually has good content warnings and stuff- and they did not have an entry for it, and i know you like it.
(This may or may not be inspired by a poppy war fanart that popped up on my Instagram that made it look like there were sapphic ppl in it)

Here's a better comparison
Voldemort would take one look at Fang Runin and Yin Nezha (the main characters) and run

Yay! You're already a part of the raven club, hope you like the crow club as well!
And yeah, i think waiting is a good idea. It took me almost a year after hearing of the book to decide if i was ready for it, and actually read it
