This is a book, you open it. See, these are words..." She says, explaining the process of reading to her 9th grade english class.... true.

Okay,
So apparently I am the only nerd in my english class who has read "Cue for Treason" before being assigned it in class. What? Its a good book! It has girls pretending to be boys illegly, plots and mysteries, and Shakesphere (?)!

What more could a complete history geek ask for?

Which just proves the point of my nerdiness. Oops.

Another thing that happened today: my teacher caught me making my "Hogwarts" powerpoint today in BBT. I just work on it when I finish all the work she assigns, which is spectacularly easy. It was formerly titled "Why Slytherin is the Best House", until today when I figured that I should just talk about all of the houses, since I was doing that anyway.

So, getting back to the story, she yells "J, what are you doing!" Not in a you-may-set-something-on-fire shout, not even in a you-are-in-so-much-trouble shout, but a you-strange-child,-explain-your-thinking kind of way.

This was our dialouge:

"J, what are you doing!?" (realized after that it needs a question mark...again, oops)

"Uh...making a powerpoint....?" (in my best uh-oh-crazy/mad-child-eating-teacher-on-the-loose voice. Very quietly.)

"Is this for another class?" She boomed viciously, with a hint of curiousity sneaking into the undertones of her question.

I hestitated slightly. "No, its not."

She stood. "What is it for then?" I flinched at the sound of her voice, trying to think of a good excuse other than 'this class bores me to tears'.

"For...practice?"

She began to speak and I cringed. "Okay." She said, and we both went back to our respective tasks.

That was my odd day. Oh, and there was a fire drill in fifth.

Yay!!
