Skool
You’re already talking about it on every other thread, so here’s one dedicated to this unavoidable reality of life. Or is it an alternate reality?

in February 5th, 2006 @ 19:59YES!! YES!!!! YES!!!!
*does the yes-I-am-all-that dance*
Ok, more depth. At my skool there are four groups: the superpopular, the moderately popular, the okay, and the unfortunate kids who get ragged on every day. I, naturally, belong to no group. I try to stick up for the kids at the bottom and keep on good terms with the kids at the top.
Because recently I found out something. I will put it in bold so it catches your attention like a lightly grilled weasel:There are no rules unless you obey them.
Was a revelation to me, at least.

in February 5th, 2006 @ 20:37haha. so i (am forced to) live in The Land of the Barbies + Kens, and its pretty much the fine arts capital of my state. @ least half the people in my skool are in music or drama. im in choir (we have 3 choirs + 3 ensembles!) + its fun but it can be kind of intimidating sometimes because like half the people in my choir are going to have cds out in maybe five years or so.
lets see… groups. there are the intellectual barbies (not an oxymoron) which make up maybe 60% of the population, some jockstraps, and of course we have a good size group of fine arts freaks. honestly some barbies + kens arent as bad as u make them out to be. i have to interract w/ them on a daily basis, + some are genuinely nice to me which is surprising cause you can guess what i look likeoh, oh + we have this really good teen studio thingy @ the local playhouse + my friend + i are auditioning for taming of the shrew next week! gotta go practice my elizabethian

in February 5th, 2006 @ 21:40School. Oh God.
Can I not think about it? I have a math test on Tuesday that I am positive I will fail, and the teacher won’t let Zyviva take it for me. Then on Wednesday is Toirah Bowl, and at least I’m missing second period, but I don’t know anything. Also on Tuesday, the micrology thing is due, and I haven’t even started it.

in February 6th, 2006 @ 15:22alrright why we didnt have a snow day today i really dont know because i heard that every single school in the northern half of our STATE except US was closed!!!
we probably had school today just because this week is SNOWCOMING SPIRIT week, oh yay (not).
… HA. speaking of cliques we literally had “dress like a very smart person day” today + there were all these barbies dressed up like “nerds” + sorry but it just all seemed stupid + maybe a little mean but maybe im just being a cynic
im just waiting for pirate day (thursday) cause that might actually be fun

dark lord of darkness
in February 6th, 2006 @ 15:27skool is bad.
and boring.
most of the time.
however
sometimes
it can be fun
bu†usally not
therefore, i can conclude that going to skool is not worth the bother. would be, rather, because of stupid laws that prevent us from not going to skool. actually, the worst parts of skool are homework and waking up early.besides that, skool wouldent be thta bad. homeschooling isnt that good bcuz how do u get friends?∂∂∂ªªµ≤≥÷æ…

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 6th, 2006 @ 15:52My school is the Jatravartid’s armpits. The kids are terrible and steal my books, so I have to grab them back (no time for plotting, the hysteria sets in too fast and I’m done for) and then they ask stupid questions (“What’s an anathema?” “What does avaricious mean?”) and tell me to do things I don’t want to (“Stop talking!” “Be quiet for once!”) and yell at me when I sing, even if it’s just that someone said a title (“I feel fine.” “She’s telling all the world…”). But you’ve seen my little conversations, which I know you hate but they help my neurotic tendencies.

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 6th, 2006 @ 18:44My dream school would be mostly Musers and their geeky friends. It would have Muse writers and scientists as teachers, and Shakespeare, Milton, Wilde, Keats, Burns, and other classical poets taught in LA class. Lunch would be Japanese food (mmm!) and chocolate, which isn’t very Japanese but what can you do. (Nothing.) There would also be big lockers with bookshelves, good music playing in passing periods, and no gym class. There would be no guidelines about our organizational systems, and pinching books would be a punishable offense. Pranks would not be.

in February 6th, 2006 @ 18:50my dream skool would be a geek skool but NOT preppy. Muser type peoples. Let’s just call it a skool for Musers.
Lots of electives/interesting choices, no required gym class, decent food, someplace with SNOW! with skiing and many trips to random places around the world (for EDUCATIONAL purposes of course 
) good band, theater program, newspaper, and orchestra and maybe an extra course in hurdy-gurdy and shawm playing taught by none other than the Sandwich himself, he and larry g. could switch off or do different history classes, the GAPA RC could teach science, the GAPA RS could teach english…heck we’ve got it all right here! Let’s run away and form a fun skool. All in favor say AYE!

in February 6th, 2006 @ 20:20I’m home-schooled (thank God). No cliques. I do participate in activities with other home-schoolers (speech and debate), and I guess, technically, we do have a class society. There are the ditzs, rather bizarre people, fun people, and serious. I’m not exactly sure which one I belong to.
Dream school? Actually, I’m living it. Since speech and debate tournaments take up so much time, I don’t have much time for other subjects. I do math, science, and vocabulary. I’m about to start a world history course. Beyond that, not much. I read a lot. Writing speeches, researching, meeting new people, learning about the subjects my friends are speaking about, I get all that. Because I read a lot I get all that stuff. I like it. It’s cool. Plus, I get to do all my work on my bed. Yay.

in February 6th, 2006 @ 21:06Ooh, I was homeschooled. Had basically no friends, but learned so much. Came to public school and learned nothing all year except some French. Sheesh. Still in public school, learning more now but still very little. After finding out what exactly Esperanto is (yesterday) I want to study it, but all my school has is Spanish. Je n’aime pas l’espanol. Je desiree a etudie le francais et l’esperanto. L’espanol est tres mal. Le francais et l’esperanto est tres bien!
my ideal school schedule:
9:00
Go to school. Locker is big enough for violin AND binders AND backpack AND coat AND also me, if I really was desperate. Homeroom time now, but we don’t have to sit down or shut up.9:10
Language of choice. I’d take Esperanto, taught by…er…someone who knows it. Also I would take French.10:00
Snacky time. And the snack table in the classroom actually has GOOD snacks. We can socialize while we eat.10:30
Science. Taught outdoors. Wheee! We can explore the forces of gravity by noticing how difficult it is to climb up a swingset pole and throwing snowballs.11:20
Math. Taught purely in ways that make it interesting to learn. I’m unable to be more specific because no one has discovered those ways yet.12:00
Lunch! Good school lunch, like sushi and ripe fruit and lasagna and food that is more edible than the napkins. We can eat wherever we want in the school. Even in the library, outside, or on the roof. There is a safety railing.12:30
Recess. With the most awesome jungle gym in the world, plus various forts and hidy-holes.1:00
English. We learn it by reading books, whichever ones we want to.1:50-2:40
Free choice. Go to the gym and play games, read in the library, fool around with the computers, draw pictures, write, talk to friends.Finis
Plus, every Wednesday, the teachers have a coffee break that lasts all day and we see how well the students can manage by themselves, with no rules whatsoever. Hopefully there will be few casualties.
wooOOooOOoo long post.
A and B the C of D,
Mer

in February 6th, 2006 @ 21:36I have a lot of friends. A few online, some at youth group, and a whole glob at speech. I would say I have *counts on fingers* five really close friends (as in we have basically the same personality and/or we say what we think to each other and/or we cry on each other’s shoulders), seven people I hang with, and innumerable acquaintances. But, before speech, I didn’t know a lot of people.

When I don’t have four-day school week, I have one every week. ‘course, that makes up for the fact that I have school 7:45-3:15, with only 40m for lunch. WHICH IS A VERY LONG DAY, THANKS.Sometimes, I wish I was homeschooled.

Em (The Deceased Pigeon or not really it doesn't really matter anymore oh gosh im so happy to be back!!!!!!!!)
in February 6th, 2006 @ 22:13my friend and i decided one day that we were going to remodel the skool. first we would take out all of the walls, and put in one giant swimming pool, and add a starbucks. and we would issue everyone a laptop, and a scooter, and ummmm… i can’t remember, this was last year y’know.
There is this science hi-skool that everybody wants to get into, but you have to take an admissions test, and go through this big application process, with teacher recomendations and eerything. there is this one kid who basically had to study really hard for this test and make all a’s and get into the skool, or else his parents will eat him. i swear, it’s crazy. im so happy my parents aren’t that bad.
oh, and this kid at my skool made a website and put all of the answers to those 2-hour english assignments that everybody has to do or die on it, and there was much ado about it. my english teacher was furious, and overeacted terribly. then some people reapeated what he said on some blog, and he got very annoyed, which i found very funny. anyway, what i’ve heard is that this guy made this website incase he forgot his homework, and then people found out about it and it turned into a way for all these people to cheat. and someone told on them, and they all know who it was. which is really stupid, if you are going to tell, you should write an anonyomous note or something. at my skool you sort of learn to pretend that you don’t see people cheating and placate yourself with “its only going to hurt them” or if you aren’t as conservative “if people want to cheat, its their own business”. apparently there was also a link to this forum on the website, and the admin are trying to get he people on it in trouble, or they have gotten them in trouble, or the forum was actually run by someone living in new york. (never trust rumor, and if i ever make a blog i’m going to put a note on it that says ‘this site is not necessarily affiliated with any site that has a link to it’) and anyway, thats the most exciting thing that happened to me this week.

We really have no idea who any of these people are. I veiw it as a constant reminder to be careful (not really, but you can).

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 7th, 2006 @ 16:37Muse Academy is a boarding school. Recruiters would come from other magazines, universities, research teams, etc. and look at us working (playing, really). Here is my ideal Muse Academy Mon-Fri schedule:
7:00 Wake up, get dressed (with music), eat breakfast of stir-fry with habanero peppers. Yum! Of course, you might want something more conventional.
7:50 Short assembly. Sing Muse songs, socialize, meet with friends, get ready for day. Check APOD, CtS, etc.
8:00 First period-English class! Shakespeare, Milton, Burns, Keats, Wodehouse, Voltaire, Hemingway, etc. Read and enjoy.
8:50 Second period-Science class. Focus on chemistry, engineering, geology, biology. Dissection OK, good microscopes, interesting topics. And good diagrams!
9:40 Third period-Music. All your favorite medieval instruments, nice music, some rock. Headed by Mr. Paul Baker and his crew.
10:30 Fourth period-Math class. Yay! Not too many fractions, but dwells on the edge of the unknown.
11:20-Fifth period-Tech class. Ooodles of fun. Das keyboard, stuff from ThinkGeek, HTML classes along with JavaScript, CSS, etc. Creative.
12:10-Lunch. Eat with rest of MA. Sample foreign cultures. Music playing, friends, good tables. Access to outside in good weather, with chopsticks available as well.
2:20-Sixth period-History. Get into the down and dirty in this class, with emphasis on wars, heroes, and politics.
3:10-Seventh period-French class. J’aime le francais! C’est magnifique.
4:00-Back to the Muse Academy schoolgrounds. Students, relax, eat, play, do homework, or take a variety of extracurricular classes, including Esperanto, Quenya, Sindarin, Science Fiction, Douglas Adams and His World, Speech & Debate, or Trivia.
9:30-Students go back to their dormitories to sleep.Sundays we’re unleashed on the unsuspecting world. Wouldn’t that be awesome? We could have uniforms, or no uniforms, and parties, and celebrations for things like Bop Ad’s birthday, Talk Like A Pirate Day, Guy Fawkes, and All Hallows’ Eve. Skiddy dense.

the muse academy definitely sounds awesome. as long as it has every type of science class (including biochem. – which my skool doesnt have – and it sux because thats what i want to study in college), music (aka choir), astronomy (we had a 2 week unit on this in physics but it wasnt enough), drama, and pancakes w/ nutella every day. nutella…yesssssssssss…
oh and one more thing – a really cool art class where everyone could just follow their own creative pursuits…yeah…i would write and make strange articles of clothing, thats always fun

in February 7th, 2006 @ 18:26(36) That is one heck of a long day. Forty whole minutes for lunch!?! We only get twenty. If you buy lunch, it takes five minutes to walk down to the cafeteria, five minutes to wait in line, and at least ten minutes to talk to your friends about absolutely nothing. Luckily I bring my lunch and do not talk but instead read, while I walk and while I eat. I have never run into anything or choked. \/ir+u4l ch0kLit 4 m3!!!
Ah, Queenie J, I LURVE your Muse Academy schedule. I totally want to go to that school. The uniform should be jeans and a T-shirt with something funny written on it. No one should ever wear Abercrombie or American Eagle unless it’s for an immersion project.
And we should be issued scooters, for getting to class on time.

in February 7th, 2006 @ 21:57What about languages other than French? Can’t we have Chinese, Spanish, Japanese, Swahili, Arabic, Hebrew, Russian, Latin, Greek, Hindi, Cherokee, Aborgine, Penguin, Ig-pay Atin-lay, or Quechua at the MA? Geez.
I am willing to teach a class on Meditation/Sittting Around and Doing Nothing Honors or Advanced Meteorology, in which we take a field trip to Chicago so we can study stipp, snush, and snain in detail.
And do we get gym? In gym at the MA, we would learn about how to throw a pie for maximum impact, how to fight with broadswords/longswords/rapiers/smallswords/katanas/take your pick, and how to act like you’re drowning to fake your friends out. And of course, anything requiring us to get off our lazy butts would be optional.

in February 8th, 2006 @ 05:46I want to go to this school SOOO much! But the day is shorter than my normal day by 15 minutes. Not just one language, please, that would be too much like the narrow-minded other schools.
How about the day we get our Muses in MA is a holiday and you get to go to whichever classes you feel like that day?
I want to learn cavalry swordsmanship!

in February 8th, 2006 @ 11:55(54) It’s our ‘break’ but most people use it for lunch, so that’s what it’s called. Our periods are 100 minutes, so lunch is a split one with a few minutes taken out of it.

in February 8th, 2006 @ 16:21I want to be allowed to teach a Douglas Adams class. My area of expertise, don’t you know? Or a Bertie Wooster class. Yeah…
I think boarding schools would be more fun. The uniform should be manga-ish for girls, and suit-like for guys. And we should have uniforms and computers allowed. But no cell phones, that’d be annoying. And dances with neighboring schools where we don’t have to wear uniforms.
Lots of fun. E~A can just come and not stay in the dorms. We could have some kids like that, it’d clear up space.

sorry back to reality for a brief moment… my psychotic choir teacher just randomly decided to do voice placements again – weve never done voice placements in the middle of the year. so after thats all over w/ he tells me im now a first soprano + im kinda mad because in a choir of 40 its not like he can hear every individual + i never wanted to be a first soprano because they always have the painful screeching parts that are torturous to listen to w/o any other accompaniment. bleh

spy class–learn to be a spy
theatrical spy class–learn how to use small weapons, martial arts, gurillia fighting, random foriegn languages, bizzare and widely useless gadgets, but have a good time.
How about at the beginning of school you choose a foriegn culture and learn it to the extreme? Like if you choose ancient Araby you learn Arabic, study Arabic culture, capture and train a hunting-hawk, learn cavalry fighting and riding, learn the basics of herding and bargaining, how to survive in the desert wilderness, etc. That would be so cool!

in February 8th, 2006 @ 21:55okay, i admit it, i had more ideas, but i just didn’t feel like sitting around and listing every single science or language or sport. I think the muse acadamy should offer every language and science ever, and if you think of one they don’t have then they make up a course for it.
today we chose courses for high skool (this is totally unrelated) and my friend and i wanted to take latin, but that would waste our lovely French credit we will be getting this year. And the conselor was talking about planning for all four years of high skool, and collages, and about how all these collages that we were probably looking at (i immediately felt guilty that i wasn’t looking up collages on the internet and wondering how i could get into them) wanted us to challenge ourselves, and so in our senior year after we already have all our credits for the advanced studies diploma (because everybody will have at least one, if not two math credits (one person has three) and one language credit) we shouldn’t go and take basket weaving instead of calculus or whatever, and some collages require people to take a language in or senior year, and we should look at collages we might want to go to, and such. so my friend and i decided that in our junior year, when we will have three electives because we won’t have to take gym, we are going to take latin 1 instead of french 4, and take basket weaving, and film studies, and other useless things, and then in our senior year take all of the stuff we need to take. i said that we should skip collage and become homeless artists in France, and then changed my mind to japan, and then back to france, but she didn’t want to be a homeless artist. darn.

in February 9th, 2006 @ 15:18Hah, today I had to do a skit of the cell cycle in science with 4 other kids. We were very, very bad. Although we’ve had time to work on it in science for the past 3 days, most of my time and the time of the other two girls was spent pushing and pulling the boys around. They were uncooperative to the max. We had to tell them to stand up and walk and say their lines and everything. Sheesh.
After we presented it (ugh) to the class, one of the other girls in my group started crying. She was really upset, because she’s an A student and knew that we’d be pretty lucky to get a C+.
‘Course, I was upset too. I blame it, however unfairly, on the boys. They needed all our attention all the time, or they’d go off somewhere and throw things. It was so frustrating. Urrrrgh.

in February 9th, 2006 @ 16:12grrrr… i had to fix all of my french grammer, and i mixed au printemps up with l’ete, and so on.
today the wonderful high skool peoples came and set up this electives thing where you could see what all of the electives are. it was really annoying, because you had to walk through this room with lots of people in it, and it was a pretty small room (actually it’s two rooms with the wall removes) and a marketing person was like ‘do you want to do marketing?’ and a JROTC (i think thats an army recruitment thing) person was like ‘do you want to do JROTC?’ and i think ‘no duh i dont’ but the art people were froody, they had choklit. anyway, i had already signed up for art. the hi-skool has a really good art program, where you start in art 1, and then you can take art 2 and art 3, or take a more specific art form, such as photography, or graphic design, or whatever. anyway, its supposed to be very good. but marketing? who would want to take marketing?

I’m not homeskooled though. *sigh* Me gets up and faces the horrors of gym and teachers (although having my mom as a teacher would probably be worse-she’d make me work. Not work, work. Yes it deserves italics the way she does it.
) and stuff. Yup. Whee.I did finish my project last night btw if anybody cares. Unfortunately, in my frantic rush i totally forgot about the vocab test. So i’m pretty sure i failed that. (“failed” being C or lower. I don’t think i actually failed. Although i might’ve. You never know… *is scared*)

in February 10th, 2006 @ 22:29heh. I remember Pre-calc… (my school is run on semesters, I had it last semester. A lot of my friends have it this semester though) I like interesting problemsolvings in math. School math can be stupid. Je peux parler Français et Espagnol. Quelles langues parlez-vous?
I was thinking that the Muse acadamy should have a preschool for 2-4 year olds. They would teach little bits of Spanish with more every year and in kindergarten it would become Spanish immersion. (all of your classes in Spanish, you pick up Spanish) the amout of Spanish would gradually diminesh until 5th grade which would be half and half. In 6th-8th grades, you would pick a third language that you would go through a course that would be half immersion half regular in. the format would be like a regular Jr. high where you would only have 1 hour of this language. You would have Spanish Immersion History or something too. All of your core classes (History, math, science just not english) would be in Spanish. They would be really interesting Muse acadamy worth classes though. When you start High school, you would keep on with the spanish and the other language, but you could take a fourth (Sindarin, Quenya, Esperanto, Hebrew, Swedish, whatever is offered) you could choose your classes and they would happen kind of like college with the M/W/F and Tues/Thurs scheduals, like I said earlier. That is just my idea.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 21:41I don’t want to take Spanish, b/c my grandfather, who is an immigration officer (those gov. people you see in airports with guns and bigs sticks intimidating everyone) is trying to teach me every single language on earth and Spanish is his favorite. So I am tired of Spanish. From him I learn the most factoids ever, b/c he likes to watch TV with me and teach me about the subject matter. For instance, once he made me watch this weird movie about a Pope who goes out to be with the people and he taught me, in the space of a half hour, all about Christian heirarchy and history and holidays and art and stories and gospels and saints and EVERYTHING. It was cool. But i don’t like Spanish, I want to be an Arabic student. And Hebrew, one always needs practice.

I’m not familiar with Capt. Holly Short. You should be Captain Beefheart , if you want to have a navy title, and have a Magic Band! Even if it’s just a rubber band. Someone should get that. I hope someone does.

there was this guy i didnt know playing the guitar, and then there was this short little japanese guy that lives in my suburb – spinning in a circle + singing along with the other guy!
my friend + i completely broke down laughing after staring for maybe .65 seconds! og, maybe its not so funny just hearing about it…… im still laughing, literally… ah, twas a hilarious sight…

in February 16th, 2006 @ 17:50Today someone started a dumb rumor I was engaged (I’m twelve) to this guy (Paul, not his real name) and everyone kept asking me if it was true. Then Paul’s poem, in which he proposes to Jessica Simpson, was read aloud. I pretended to break off the engagement and sob. It was pretty funny.
Me: Paul, I hate you! The engagement is OFF! *pretend sobs*
Paul: Wha-wha-what did I do?
Me: *gets out handkerchief and fake sobs some more*
(I always carry a handkerchief, a pocketknife, a pen, and a safety pin. Comme habitude.)
Paul: Whappen?
Me: That’s the BEST English Beat album. *cheers up*
Paul: So we’re still engaged?
Me: Don’t make me laugh.
Paul: But-
Me: No. Just go away and leave me in peace. One piece.

in February 16th, 2006 @ 21:10Skool is so silly silly with so much drama. Here’s an example of a real-life soap opera with the names changed.
There is a girl named Susie who was going out with a guy named Forrest in November and December. They were really close. After a Christmas party at her house, she broke up with him because…I have no clue why. Maybe she got bored. So for a while, she hung out with whoever, but mostly a kid called Jim. She and Jim are really tight.
But then Susie started going out with Seth. For a few weeks, they were inseparable. But then Jim was talking to me on Monday and he said Susie would drop Seth “like that” if Jim told Susie that Seth had gone all the way before.
So then Susie confronted Seth and called him a *censored*, and Seth was like, “What the *censored*?” and for a while (a.k.a. a day) things were pretty rocky between Susie and Seth.
See, Jim likes Susie and was jealous of Seth. Jim and Susie are perfect for each other, and they’ll probably be together in a few more weeks. Tch, eighth-grade relationships.
I think the situation with Susie and Seth is resolved now, and like I said, they’ll go out for a few more weeks and then find other people for the heck of it. Ridiculous. I shall never understand this.
When I was homeschooled, I learned a lot of educational things, but nothing about social stuff. I didn’t know what “to own” meant. I didn’t know what it meant to be “burned”. I didn’t know what ROTFL, LMAO, IMHO, w00t, or loads of other things meant. Pretty sad, huh?
Also when I was homeschooled, I was not learning how to “go out” with people or “burn” those with a social status lower than mine (not many). Amazing I’ve survived. Ah well, tough love.At least the world is quiet here.

in February 17th, 2006 @ 15:36I’m definitely one of the kids who gets ragged on every day. The combination of my UH (Urban Hipster) “tribal” group, my Muser-osity, my habit of carrying things (see 143 in this thread) and the breaking out into random snatches of song all the time did it. I’m OK, though. I try not to get punched too much and quote obscure sources AMAP (As Much As Possible). And I like memorizing poetry.
Thanks, Ebeth. I’ll remember that in my dark times, and try not to be so prejudiced about were-rabbits.

Queen Julietaini the Froody of Kiador (Queenie J, Juliette)
in February 18th, 2006 @ 12:54My school is not tiny. It’s microscopic.
I tend to mutter in snatches of German, French, my twenty words of Afrikaans, Elizabethan English, and the Swahili and Arabic I’ve picked up over the years. And Brummie slang. I can be a closet Brummie if I want to.
I wish I had a group of friends at school. Then again, I wouldn’t know what to do with them. (Put them in a vase? Plug them in to my USB port? Sherry? (Badabing badaboom.) Bake in oven at 350 degrees for ten minutes until golden brown and flaky? Tape them to the fridge? Feed them birdseed?)
I think Mattel should totally have Ken come out, and make him a boyfriend. You could promote gay rights, up sales, and generate tons of publicity. And maybe there should be a “David Bowie” Ken, in spandex/glitter, a “Ziggy Stardust” Ken in Ziggy outfit, a “Joe Strummer” Ken, a “Paul Simon” Ken, Monty Python Kens, etc.
I could have FUN with this. Froody.

in February 20th, 2006 @ 11:24Coo ee! I happen to be a cert. neurotic. Sir Roderick Glossop would totally drool all over me…mwahahaha!!!
I am still working on reading all 90+ P.G. Wodehouse books. It’s a task which is daunting, fun, and awesome.
Ken would be so much better for the world if he was sustainable, planet-friendly, gay, and had a black/Asian/I don’t know boyfriend. Wouldn’t that be awesome? And make Barbie a little heavier, because every time I look at that doll I want a glass of water and a run. A run away. I’m not demonizing them, I’m improving them. Mattel, PAY ATTENTION!!!
Mattel worker doing Google search: Hey, looka this!
Other Mattel worker: That’s a good idea. Minion, *rhubarbrhubarbrhubarb*
Queenie J in store: Hey! Mattel took my idea! Cool!170: Violetfire baby, what’s wrong with transsexuals? What? I’m seeing a lack of peace, love, and understanding here. Not amused.

*Pop*. Hear that? That was the sound of no Musebloggers giving a photon.
I’m just going to do my best at disco fashion, pick it up, and run with it. I mean, I’ll have a pocket-handkerchief, a pocketknife, a safety pin, and a pen. What more do I need?
Oh yeah. A boy to dance with? Guess what? I really don’t care. Safety pins are sooooooooo much more punk.

in February 21st, 2006 @ 18:03i wouldn’t advise the pocketknife. even if its not at your skool.
you could always dance with a girl. Hear that? thats the sound of em being unecessarily sick.
but really. just dance with all your friends. unless you dont have friends, in which case you could sit in a corner and listen to your ipod. unless of course you dont have an ipod, in which case you could read a book. or muse. or run around crazily attacking people with a sharpie. thats always fun. my friend and i did that during chorus. actually, we attacked eachother. but really, just get one of those giant black sharpies and a ski mask, and run around poking people. then slip quietly into the girls room, and hide the evidence in places where peoples will never look.
um, what about paper? you would definatey need that. unless you plan to write on yourself. i wouldn’t advise it. my friend wrote the prologue to les miserables on my arm, and people kept asking if i needed paper, or telling me i would get ink poisoning. so if all else fails, write on someone else.

Antepenultimate Mer
in February 21st, 2006 @ 20:34Mer has decided to refer to herself in the third person now because she missed Third Person Day.
Mer says she has a problem with drawing on her hands. Once in Advisory, she got this green pen and drew loads of geometric designs, symbols, doodles, and other stuff all over her left hand. The teacher got mildly upset with her for some reason. Mer doesn’t know why, because it was very tasteful drawing.
Also once last year, Mer drew some of the adventures of Dora the Explorer on her left hand. She and her friend have a running joke about Dora the Explorer. It was quite amusing.
Since this is the school thread, Mer would like to know what the strangest thing that you’ve ever worn to school is. Mer has:
1) worn a pair of wings to school on April Fools’ Day
2) walked around for a half hour in school with a sign on her front saying “CAUTION: Small Person With Large Backpack”
3) put a big, red ribbon for a Christmas wreath in her hairBu that was last year in a different school, where the other kids were more accepting of difference. To pull a stunt like that here would require extreme strength of will.
Mer thinks she can. Mer thinks she can.
*throws small self-motivational party with ice cream*
Why does Mer do these crazy things? Because, she says,
“I just have to show the worl that I’m different.”*moment of silence to be respectful to the sentimental note on which Mer has ended this post*

in February 21st, 2006 @ 21:01The strangest thing i’ve worn to skool is the legendary (well at my skool anyway) PIRATE HAT!!! woohoo!! Actually probably my whole jack sparrow costume complete w/goatee (Huzzah for spirit gum and fake hair and stuff!) But that was on halloween, so i’m assuming it doesn’t count.
my friend Bill (who is a girl) (yes we have issues with normal girls’ names) once wore this AMAZING headband with PINK BUNNY EARS!!! It was very special. We idolized her for the whole day. We bowed down to the pink bunny ears.
At my old skool, stuff like that took no strength of will at all. In fact, it took strength not to do stuff like that.
My new skool is a bit diff though. *applauds bill the brave*
GO FOR IT MER!!!!! YOU ROCK!
*eats virtual ice cream*
Who me? *puts on halo*

in February 23rd, 2006 @ 17:05I like science too. Only this year its way too easy and mostly boring except when we do experiments. I never went to a science fair because my school doesn’t do them.
But i went to a spelling bee once. and i won. It was in fourth grade. but now all those words sound easy because i can spell stuff like pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoneosis.

Ebeth The Lurker
in February 24th, 2006 @ 14:39I’m officially an idiot…liefield was gone today so the sub said that he said that if we did notes on the section and turned them in by the end of class we could use them on a quiz (just a small quiz, not like a test) on monday. So trotsky and i started doing notes, and all was good, and then we got to lasers and i was like “what does laser stand for again?” and trotsky didn’t think laser was an acronym so i asked andy and he’s like “there’s nothing about lasers” and i said “yes there is!” and trotsky agreed that yes, there was a whole big section on them. So we gave him the page # and he turned to it and was like “we’re doing chapter twelve” So then i was smacking myself on the head, trotsky was slamming the book shut repeatedly, andy and dakota were laughing, trotsky and i were both telling them to shut up, and everybody else in the room was going “sssshhhhhh”
Interesting day…
Oh and we finished the boring movie in history. it ends with some very artistically arranged blood spots on the wall. Hmm…interesting…

ITS LIKE HES NEVER BATHED IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE. its gross. i tried to get the other math teacher, but his class had something like 31 ppl + my class has something like 13 ppl (guess it cant get any smaller). wonder why…

embrace_your_poison aka Lyra
in March 8th, 2006 @ 20:51I’m immensely fortunate (NO sarcasm there at ALL) to go to a Christian school. It’s pretty funny. They won’t let us wear ankle socks, as well as a long list of other things.
And I have friends. Well, four close friends: Jenn who is dark and depressed but very hilarious and loads of fun, Jen who is extremely dramatic and has a beautiful singing voice, PJ the obsessive guitarist, and Andy some guy who gives me CDs. (If Andy is by any chance reading this, I’m sorry. I’m completely serious, it’s the only reason I’m civil to you. ^_^)
And we run around and make strange videos and harangue people about music, politics, and other things, and generally have a lot of fun.
My teachers are awesome too. It’s the administration that are hard to deal with sometimes. I mean, they’re all very nice but they make some very silly-seeming rules.
…yeah…dunno why I bothered to type all of this when I have two presentations to prepare for tomorrow…

in March 9th, 2006 @ 17:13Molesworth. By somebody whose name i can never ever remember. Never. I look it up at least twice a month and can never remember what the man’s called. Arrrrgh.
I just had a shock. Remember the dear old creative projects? Got one due tomorrow. Well, i forgot about it and was planning to go to the choir concert. Was in the process of trying to get lizzy/trotsky to give me a ride and she says she’s probably not going cuz she has to write 8 pgs. That flew right over my head at first. Then i thought about it. Then i said “Oh bleep i g2g” Then i left, rushed the comp upstairs, told monica i couldn’t come, and reconsidered my panic. I usually don’t even start the things until around 7 the night before. Plus i’ve got an idea. Double plus i’ve got backup-she’s done a recent deal where we’re allowed to bring them in saturday before 8 (she babysits the saturday skool people). So i have little cause for panic. But i can’t go to the concert.
It was a shocker though. Oooooooooooooohhh boy. Heart racing, all that.

Copper Bigfoot
in March 28th, 2006 @ 19:58I’m really stressed right now in that I might get moved to a new school. Maybe even not school, but a psyc center.
You see, everyone in my neighboorhood hates me because I was psychotic and acted like an idiot at school. Only my cousin and his friends want to be around me, and now that they’ve moved on to video games (which I’m against), they don’t want to be with me. That, and we’re at the age where girls are friends with girls and boys are friends with boys (Unless, of course, you have the type of problems i do. Then its OK to befriends with boys like you, because only 1 in 10 of people that have what i have are girls) They started to hate me around 4th grade. I was given medication changes and sent to a new school out of town.
Now, because new psyc problems have arisen, I may be sent to a new school (Yet again). It might be Admin deleted the school’s name, In which people know and hate me. Where I am currently is in the next county, about as far away as you can get without having to get up at 4:00 in the morning to get ready for school.
There is a meeting friday. They’re going to decide where I go. Oh, yeah, boarding school is a possibility. No more Museblog (Maybe on occation) , and, even worse, I know have no chance of seeing my first love ever again.
The people at my second school are more accpetingl. I have seen no teasing, and people accually pay attention in class and want to do school projects (Like designing a native american poster). Everbody at the school who is one of my dads paitents asks for me. My two friends ask for me every day. Unforutionatly, they have family problems so they are not able to call me, and the male one looks so much like the pervert at the hospital that I doubt I’ll be able to talk to him again.
Medication was having bad side effects, so they took me out of school unrtill everything was cleared up.
That scary part is that I may be going to school in a building for for people that…. well, you know what I’m about to say from info above.
I can’t turn work in on time
A. I fall asleep, Medication side effect
B. My teacher only comes every 10 days to pick up work
So that will effect where I go. I REALLY want to stay at my second school, who knows if any other school will be no bullying-everybody knows you’re the smartest one? If they send me to a gifted program…. good lord i won’t be able to stand it (see HG2MB thread).

some ppl fail to remember that we are all only human, and all humans make mistakes, some more irrational than others. but it doesnt matter, b/c as humans we cannot help it. we learn from our failures.
if you feel the need to talk to someone about something, you can talk to me. im not some creepy psychologist or anything (although i might be someday), but i like to listen to what others have to say, and give them some help if they need any
wish you the best of luck.

Ebeth The Former But Recently Rehabilitated Lurker
in April 4th, 2006 @ 16:14Yay!!! Glad u didn’t get sent to a boarding skool. Of course i don’t know anything about them. they might be quite fun. But…naaaah.
Besides, they have to wear UNIFORMS. Ugh! Blech! No!
Especially CSG, i would hate to go there. They have to wear skirts. I am most definitely against skirts. Why, i have no idea, i just hate wearing them.
Band was quite interesting today…Schneids was gone for the first half hour or so w/the percussion about something, and so the seniors ruled supreme. We had flashbacks of band camp. Anyway, it started w/the saxes and low brass throwing reed cases at each other. So andy sat right in the line of fire and was pretty much permenantly covering his head, until they decided to aim at him instead. So we were all laughing at him and danny, who also eventually got shot at multiple times. Then the trumpets started-they had high tower take off his sweatshirt and put on a pinny they found sitting around somewhere, and he had to roll up his sleeves and wear a really ugly bandanna on his head. he looked SO funny. So then we were cracking up at that. And then there was a lot of other stuff happening too. Hirsch got some mallets that looked like hammers from the percussion section and was going around pretending to whack all the freshies, and around this time some saxes had found pieces of wood lying around and were throwing them. Then somebody saw schneids coming back and everybody stopped, and then he came in and called hirsch up front and gave him his baton and said “do warm up in b flat” and hirsch looked really confuzzled and it was funny (adding to the fact that hirsch always looks funny. He has a weird sort of afro that he pulls back w/a bandanna that makes him look like a pirate and he always has weird expressions on his face) so he tried to conduct and then schneids was like telling him how to hold it and everything and kept going until he got it. Then josh came up, and did a better job at it (he’s a clarinet, he’s the froody one who talks to us freshies. he’s emily’s sister (the one who’s gonna bring her towel)) He did lip benders. So then Schneids was like “who’s next? One of the seniors come up here” and everybody was shouting “Hermann, hermann” but hermann was shaking his head so fosnaught came up and did the circle of fourths He did ok. nobody likes him much, but he did better than hirsch. Then schneids was like “ok sean come up here” so hermann came up and did the chorale book and it was REALLY funny cuz he was definitely not the band director type. (He was the one that started the whole reed case throwing thing) but he did a decent job and then he did this hugely dramatic cutoff that made everybody laugh. And then schneids was like “ok, all the seniors i called up had a part of the warm-up, so now if i’m not here, they can come and conduct you” and then the bell rang.
We have way too much fun in band.
