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.

The Labor Dabor-est

So, tomorrow is the holiday before school. I'll probably...do nothing and have to like it. That sucks. But today, i did do something, which was this:

Went to Ross for school shenanigans. All i got was a hoodie. Went to Target. I got a shirt and a new bag, thank Jesus. I've had the old for too long, and it just looks like i'm carrying a load of crap on my back. Seriously, though. I might give it to someone who needs it. Know anybody?

I can't believe it. Tuesday is the first "school night". And Liz gets to do all the crazy crap she wants. It's weird. Really weird.

Succeeding

Tuesday was pretty fun too. Taco salad for dinner...and then after that, Ariel came over, and her, Sam, Liz and I went bowling, and then we played pool and then rented movies again and went home. The movies? Strangers With Candy, and OpenCam, some gay thriller. And by gay, i do mean homosexual. I'd never say it otherwise. I didn't watch it. Wasn't in the mood for "thrills." The other one was okay. The show is sooo much better.

Yesterday? Nothing.

Today? Went to Taco Bell for Cody's birthday. Then now i'm here. Good times.

During this last summer week, i've done quite a lot so far. And there's onl about 1 and a hlaf days left, and then a few more next week. Yes, i'm pissed, but whatever.

Monday: I went to the Oregon State Fair. Main reason? To see Weird Al for the first time in ages. And let me tell you guys, it was pretty fantastic. The songs? Um...let me see...

  • A Complicated Song [s]
  • Bedrock Anthem [s]
  • Confessions Part III [s]
  • Do I Cree[ You Out [s]

After Fat, he introduced the band, and left for a while. By a while i mean, about 2 minutes or something. Then he came back and did these.

We All Have Cell Phones, So Come On, Let's Get Real [encore]

And right after that, he did the unexcpected. He played freaking Albuquerque. Yes, that Albuquerque. He even did the extra long version, with every sort of donut you could find, and starting the song over when he loses his train of thought. It was fantastic. I can't wait to do it again.

And the fair was good too.
