Middle Sates, HERE WE COME!

This week Middle Sates has been here to look at our school to see if we qualify for awesomeship.
What does are school do to prove we're worthy? We do what we do best of course! BOMB SCARES!
This week we had two of them. One on, I think, Tuesday during 4th period (one of my free periods) So we stand out on the turf for 40 minutes and are extremely disappointed when they say that we can go back inside.
Today, Friday, it happens again. It's 7th period, math, and we're taking a test. It's about 10 -15 minutes into class and all of a sudden the guy comes on and says "Blah blah blah, please go to the turf, blah blah blah, evacuate." So my teacher say alright leave your test on your desk and go to the turf. I bring my bag, and not my binders, and start heading down. We all make it to the turf and sit in our assigned spot. (Academic Circles - don't ask.) I stand there for about 30 minutes and then I go find friends.
Two periods go by (each period is about 40 minutes) and during that they say that we're going home. Now that would be more exciting if it wasn't 10 minutes before we would usually get home, but whatever.
It takes FOREVER for the buses to get to the school, which is really weird because they should have already been there for the usual pick up.
They call out the bus numbers one at a time, very slowly. It sounds like we're playing bingo and luckily I won near the beginning of the game.
We aren't allowed back into the school, so I have no books with me.
Sooooo I HAVE NO HOMEWORK!
I got home later than I usually do. And it's going to take a while before the bro and sisters get home.

ALL AFTER SCHOOL ACTIVITIES ARE CANCELED

Dance Moves

Okay. I was looking around YouTube and I found this video and it made me laugh so hard. Maybe I'm a tad sleep deprived, but whatever.



I'm totally going to bust these moves out for the next dance!
I do some of them at the dances already.

Fresh

Today, after church, I was walking to the car and I saw some tufts of green sticking out of the lawn. I went to investigate and found out that they were wild onions. So I pulled a couple of handfuls out. We took them home, washed them, and put them on our baked potatoes!
Delish.


I totally took that picture!

Oh boy.

Today was the first day with my new English teacher. She is definitely not as good as the last teacher I had.
-She plays soccer on Sundays.
-She used to be a stand-up comedian.
-She has bad ankles. (She almost fell in class. One kid couldn't stop laughing, because it did look a little funny. (Will demonstrate)
-She gives a lot of homework. (More than I'm used to. Which is none, but whatever.)
  • Lit. log. on "chapter" one of OMAM.
  • Study guide.
  • Read chapter one.
  • Vocab.

Mary no likey.
-Her comedy is not good for a first period class of kids who are sick of English teachers.
-I feel bad for her. We're a very harsh class.
-She talks too fast.
