See Sannali’s super-cool new layout! Happy mildly belated Birthday to “None of this Nonsense, Please”!
How well do you know me? Take the Quiz!
I actually got Madam Hooch, but Trelawney was 2nd place and I like her description more. So there.
Take the Which Hogwarts Professor are you? Quiz! Sibyll Trelawney
Holy hell on a stick. “The Pajama Game” is in two weeks. ::dies:: I’m sure that we were much further along by this point in H2$. Right now, people barely even have their lines memorized. Gack?
::hisses at The Wayback Machine:: If it has all of Kell’s old stuff from her ancient pages, why doesn’t it have anything from my old stas.net website? That died almost exactly one year ago. ::growls::
I never knew my classmates had such an appreciation for puns. We were talking about the definition of the word “Thanatopsis*”, and Mr. Dumaine mentioned the root connection to “euthanasia”. He asked us if any of us knew what it meant. As no one knew, I suggested it was students in China. When it clicked for everyone**, the class exploded with laughter. I’m not exaggerating when I say that it took more than a minute for the laughter to subside. My ego has never felt inflated in a classroom environment. Muaha! Score one for the pundit***!
* “A view of death”
** Youth in Asia
***Literally, an expert at speaking puns
I suppose I should write a half-decent entry before posting any more quiz results. Percy, those things are addictive. I blame Marcelina, who approaches me in school every day asking why I don’t have any new quizzes in my blog. I love you, Sleeny. XD
Anyway, I told Mr. Dumaine and Mr. Loh about their name angrams. Hilarity ensued. Various people chuckled at the Legolas angram, except for Chungy, who was horrified. JETS seemed to go over well.
In other news, Mrs. Radtke emailed me last night saying that she’d finished “The Light Fantastic”. This was much appreciated, as a week ago, a was wondering what on earth I had done with my copy. I need to make a book lending chart. John Lopez still hasn’t given me back my copy of the omnibus “Hitchhiker” trilogy thing, and he borrowed that in March. The next time I suspect he’s back from college, I’m going to go harass him. Anyway, I gave Mrs. Radtke “Equal Rites” to read next. I wonder what will happen when she gets to “Guards! Guards!”, which Nancy took to college. ::ponders:: Incidentally, the letters in Susan Radtke can be rearranged to spell “A tanked USSR”. Nancy Holman spells “Canon Hymnal”. John Lopez is “Help Jon Oz”.
Another reason today was enjoyable was my new lack of a first period class. Every other day, I won’t have class until 10. Of course, I’ll want to go to advisory, which starts at 9:20, but heck, this means that I’ll be able to stop in for a bagel or a Chick Fil A breakfast every so often. I’ll actually be able to get work done in the morning! My mother has forbidden me from sleeping in. The letters in “Chick Fil A” can also spell “Chia Flick”. “Sleeping In” becomes “Peeling Sin”.
I also got a 94 on my Multimedia Engineering exam.
So that’s my story.
Go me.
I’m having way too much fun with the Internet Angram Server. Thanks for the link, Tanja. ::snickets merrily:: This is why I love Blogspotting!
