Bugs Should Stay Outside

Most may not know I have a thing about butterflies and they don't really appeal to me. Yes I suppose they are pretty to look at but they flutter and there is a chance they will land on your shoulder, head, or even worse your nose. I guess I don't like insects in general because they crawl and most of the time have multiple legs. My phobia turned into a reality the other day in math class. While doing an assignment my eye caught something large, black as the night sky, and with many legs and crawling straight towards my school bag. My eyes widened and I had to warn my other friends about this crawling creature. It kept crawling down the aisle of desks and each of my friends, one by one saw the thing and got up and headed to the back of the room. The little shrieks we made brought the thing to the guys attention and it would soon be gotten rid of. Personally I didn't care what they did to the beetle I just didn't want it in my sight any longer. But going against my wishes of just killing the darn thing they, politely, moved it on a napkin and brushed it out the window. The rest of the class was spent flinching thinking of the bug's relatives that might be crawling around as well.

After the bug incident I had to use the bathroom so I asked my teacher if I could go. She said yes and gave me her key to the bathroom incase it was locked. And guess what? It was locked. There was a senior outside that got kicked out of class and I didn't pay any attention to him most likely smirking at me - the freshman who couldn't open the bathroom door. I turned the key this way and that but nothing seemed to work. I eventually got the door unlocked to a pitch black bathroom. I found the light switch and let go of the door that squeaked close. There were numerous keys on the key ring and after I went to the bathroom I did not remember which one was the right key to lock the door again. So after trying two keys upside down and right side up the last key was the one. I locked the door and finally made it back to class.

The most annoying thing to run into when you are in a store trying to buy something is the person in front of you in line that complains and complains just to save a few dollars on something completely pointless. This happened to me the other day at Walmart trying to get pictures that I had developed. The woman in front of me was trying to find the item she ordered online and had shipped to the store. After many complaints and quoting other associates that "promised" her the order was at the store we still had to wait. When they finally found the order the price "Seemed to be wrong", so again more waiting was in store for me as well as the other people in line behind me. Even when the clerk let me go in front because I was only there to pick up pictures the lady still had to wait for another associate.

Everyone knows those situations in which they "had to be there" to get it, this happened in English today. While reviewing terms for an upcoming poem test an outburst of laughter came from the left side of the room. My classmates were laughing so hard about something that they couldn't even begin to tell the rest of the class why the uncontrolled snickering had begun. We reviewed by playing a game in which there were teams of two students. The guy in front of my group apparently said or did something extremely humorous that the rest of the class missed and the laughing of only two students continued for a while. The laughter created a chain reaction throughout the room, because the people who were laughing had such explosive laughs that everyone else, even though we didn't know what the cause joined in as well. Finally catching their breaths the class got back to fighting for a Snickers bar for a reward of knowing our Poetry Terms.

April! It is already April. Which means only one thing - rain. But so far the weather has been pleasant and summer-like, for New Englander's this means eighty degrees or higher. Hopefully the weather will continue and the sun will stay.

That is all.
