I haven't blogged in days. I'm suffering from blog withdrawal. (Yes, there is such a thing; I have just made it up and diagnosed myself with it.) I'm in Lifsey's class, though, and the bell is in about ten minutes, so I have to make this quick.
Nothing monumental to blog about. Wednesday was Theme Day. This time, each class got a superhero. Seniors had Superman, juniors (go '04!) had Batman, sophomores got Spiderman, and freshmen got the Incredible Hulk. I'm mad we got stuck with the only superhero that doesn't have superpowers. Batman is a rich guy with toys. Granted, he's
really rich, and he gets all the beautiful women, and his villians are awesome, but still. There were some interesting costumes. McClain dressed up as Batgirl, and there were a few Poison Ivys and Jokers and Harlequins. One guy dressed up as "The Questionnaire", with backwards question marks all over his clothes. Sort of like the low-budget version of The Riddler. That's Oxon Hill for you.
Yesterday in English, we acted out Act Two of
The Crucible. When Mrs. Anderson passed out the photocopies of the script, Greg glanced at it and immediately insisted we volunteer. He wanted to be Elizabeth Proctor, and he wanted me to be John. Mrs. Anderson told him he had to be John, though, and I was goaded into playing Elizabeth. See, they're married. And in the beginning of the scene, John is supposed to kiss his reluctant wife. So Greg is all, "Ooh, I'm gonna make out with you in front of the whole class!" And I'm like, "No." He didn't. Of course, he had my permission to go for the cheek, or hand maybe, but he just skipped that part. I can read him like a book.
Oops, just about time to go. I should be back to blog some more later tonight. But congrats to
Mykella for passing her driver's test!!! (Mark told me.) Yay, Mykella!!!! (Hey, everyone deserves a celebratory cheer now and then.) Ciao for now.
