Well This Would Be My Day

Wardrobe malfunction. This is what started my day off. It is finally warm out so I decided to wear my new sandals to school. Not even to my locker yet I scuffed my right sandal on the floor and the top of it separated from the bottom. So I hopped to my friends "B" and "K" with my shoe making a sound worse than flip flops. The only solution that we could think of at seven in the morning was to glue my shoe which would have been fine if we used something different than Elmer's glue and let it dry over night. Unfortunately we didn't have that much time to spare. My friend "K" took the sandal and went to glue it leaving me shoeless on one foot in the hallway. I could have hopped, I get that, but it would have looked even more awkward so I set my right foot on the cold, filthy floor and headed to homeroom. People started coming into my homeroom so I had to hide my shoeless foot behind my other leg while sitting at a desk. Finally "K" arrived with my newly glued sandal and I put it back on my bare foot. Home room ended and I was feeling confident when all of a sudden I felt a slip and the parts of my shoe, again, separated. So I continued walking my sandal flopping all the way to math class. My teacher noticed my limping and my discombobulated shoe and had the best idea all day. Stapling it held the two pieces in place and allowed the glue to dry without the disruption of me walking. Thank you Mrs. J-P!

Then some wise guy decided to mess with the keyboard I use in computer class and they jammed the delete key, switched the p and k keys, switched the r and t keys and the a and l keys. However I didn't notice because in that class we aren't allowed to look at our fingers while typing so I typed everything correctly but then looked at the keys after and it messed me up even more and took me even longer to finish my resume. Thanks to the person who had nothing else to do in the class before me for that it was great to deal with.

A typical symbol describing science or science class would be a flask bubbling held by a crazy looking scientist guy right? Well this picture in my head came true today in Biology class. We are making yogurt and one of the ingredients needed is obviously milk. You have to heat it and then add powdered milk and a little bit of yogurt to it. Our teacher was heating the milk in containers on a burner during class and she went to turn one of them off. But instead of turning it off she turned the temperature up. This scared us all when we heard someone in the back of the class say "Uh it's bubbling". The milk bubbled over and poured all the way down the cabinets to the floor. This was the only time this year I heard a teacher swear. She quickly ran over to it and took it off the burner and had to mop up the mess. The rest of the period was spent listening to people go by in the hallway saying "who burnt toast?" because the milk had spilled the burner which had something that was burnt on it and it smelled exactly like burnt toast or burnt popcorn.

Oh English class. It is almost getting as hilarious as History class. Almost everyday conversations about the lesson spiral off into something completely irrelevant. For example today while talking about Shakespearian Vocabulary we came across the word Sirrah I think and our teacher mentioned how he thought it was used in the movie "Ants". This was ironic because the word was under the category for our notes "Words Nobody Uses". So for a while our class talked about the first spiral of conversation the movie "Ants" and then there were some people who thought that the movie "Bug's Life" was apparently better and actually had changed their life. Then the conversation turned into tiny talk - what I mean by this is that everything mentioned had something to do with something small. So the next thing to talk about and waste class time was the movie "Honey I Shrunk The Kids" because all of the people were small, I suppose it had something to do with the topic. Then going back to the first topic someone mentioned how there was a cute, chubby caterpillar in either "Ants" or "Bug's Life" I can't even remember now I've gotten myself too confused to try to recall all of this. And our teacher was completely lost for words, sitting down at a desk just waiting for the conversations to end. Eventually we got back to the lesson and I figured out that the word I have criticized my Dad for using around dinner time, "Sup", from the Shakespearian Vocabulary actually means "To eat". Sorry Dad I guess you were right after all.

That is all
