The Malapropism

So, about my 2nd period teacher. In Health 2. There's this thing about her. I'll explain it like i did to everybody else.

OK, she says "et cetera" alot, which i wouldn't mind, if it were said correctly. But in this particular case, it's...not happening. The word is used in such an awful way. She says it like the medication Excedrin. "Excedra" is the pronunciation. It angers me. I don't know what to do. But something i have done is started a semester-long tally of the number of times this false word is uttered. So far, we're at 14. I excpect it to pop up many more times in the coming weeks. 

I mean, my god, it's complete word murder. Worder, if you will. You probably won't, but i most certainly have. It is simply ridiculous. 

Learn how to talk, kids.

Viva la Blog...a

I've seriously been considering discontinuing this blog and relocating, but on a whim, i decided against the matter. So, without further adieu, here's the first of MANY posts in the coming days.

School was underway a few weeks ago. Let's run down the classes.

1. Chemistry. It's a pretty easy class. And the teacher is pretty cool. 

2. Health 2. This is an extremely easy class. More on the teacher in the next post. 

3. Concert Choir. The new choir director is freaking amazing. She actually cares if we're good or if we aren't so good, and works us until we get things right. 

4. French 2. It's hard to grasp the traditions of the class, and i haven't taken French since 9th grade. But it's not that complicated. So, i'm glad.

5. Geometry. Easy. Teacher is new, but she's okay.

I know i should've told you all this ages and ages ago, and for this i apologize.
