My adventures in make-up land

no, it's not the kind of makeup you think it is. Then again, how would I know what you're thinking? I do. Truuust me.

So what i meant anyways was "make up paper" land. But i thought if I put make-up paper land in the title it would make it to "My adventures in make up..." thereby diminishing the awesomeness.

I wonder if my mom is, at the moment, showing this post to da nurses at the clinic at which she works. If so, tell them I say hi. Also tell them the gowns in orthopedics are too small.

So, about my adventures in new seating land and make up paper land: GOOD NEWS! Miracles have occured, with that being:

MISS GROSS ONLY DID ONE RASHI AND DIDN'T TRY TO CRAM SEVERAL MORE INTO THE LAST FIFTEEN MINUTES OF CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This, ladies and gentle men, is a development. This means, in theory, that I only missed half a page of notes. SCORE! I was easily able to make that up. Chumash class notes make up; complete! Okay, recess.

I believe I have already said what needs to be said about how much I hate recess.

Back to the story, I tought I'd use my recess to copy whatever navi notes I'd missed (cuz gwess what i missed those too) and YET ANOTHER MIRACLE OCCURED! We are actually having a navi test tomorrow, so...They only did ONE inyan! The 9th miracle of Elisha! SCOOOOOORE!

So, even though my understanding of the nace was limited, I did end up getting my navi notes back. (the miracle goes somefin like "Why hello there mister elisha, I've got 20 loaves of bread how bouts i give them to you to feed the bnei naviam" "Oh well tahnks there's 2000 of them, but it's okay we'll have enough bread for leftovers" and then G-d said "so everything will be like Elisha says".) Navi note makeup; complete!

morning break! (conviently situated next to recess, as if to recover) my favorite time of the day besides for afternoon break! I gets out my yogurt and prepare to play da keys off this fine piano here. So I do. Piano playing complete! I think I played Tifa, and Sunrise. I think.

Anyways, here comes Mrs. Rauch and her wednesday Lamed Tet Malachot class. We talk about skinned animals. And dead, bleeding chickens. And apparently, couches made from leather chickens. I was (being a big Yikes! fan) the only one who apparently knew where leather comes from. Luckliy, Mrs. Rauch did NOT go into the part where they soak the hides in chicken pee. She just said "a succesively stronger solution". I don't think anyone in my class knows that much english.

Anyways, after sufficiently grossing out my classmates, Mrs. Rauch moves on to 7th grade to Miss Gross can come back in and OH NOOOOOOOO!!!

Not dikdook! ANYTHING but dikdook! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

You don't understand what dikdook IS in my class. It's....horrid. Unspeakable. WE ARE COVERING PRONOUNS FOR THE 6TH YEAR IN A ROW!!!! PLEASE MOVE ON!! SOME OF US ACTUALLY KNOW HEBREW! WE KNOW OUR NOUNS! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Wait. We're not doing dikdook? No? No! We're doing chanukah! Well that's almost as bad. I've been learning the same halachot about chanukah since 2nd grade too. Which is why she is giving us a sheet and a hebrew book explaining (in great depth) the meaning and halachot of chanukah. Boooring. No surprise there. We are split up into some different groups. One group gets a hebrew book, one gets an english book, and my group gets no book. Go figure. So, we just answered the questions off memory (a disaster, since everyone just sleeps through yahadut class anyway).

OKAY LUNCH RECESS! HEBREW STUDIES ARE OVER!

More getting pummeled by snot nosed kids. But this time I get even more food afterwards! That's not bad! Over lunch, have disturbing conversation with lactose intolerent kid about the size of her pills.

READING CLASS:
I missed notes in history, big time...Lotsa lotsa notes about important people like William Howard Taft and Woodrow Wilson and other things I could care less about. Das a LOT of writing. I'll make it up during computer lab time. Anyways, since the teach's not here, we have a sub. A sub who keeps asking me about fudge for some reason, but a decent sub nonetheless. We get together to read 'the indian in the cupboard'. I don't know why. I'm so sick of it. I had to read it in 5th grade too, and i don't remember finding it to entertaining. S'anyway, we read it, and then go down to the lab. I get all my history notes done in the lab. Yay! History class make up; complete!

MINCHA:
Yup. We are actually being GRADED on Mincha now. All I can say to that is '?'. But I assume I got a satisfactory grade. I was there. I davened. I left. I think that's all I was supposed to do. I might've missed the quiz.

AFTERNOON BREAK:
what can be said that isn't painfully obvious? (SQ6)

SCIENCE:
I missed no notes here either! Just some random stuff about the sun I was able to jot down while the teacher was yelling at someone (for writing notes while we were reading)! Science make up; complete!

MATH:
Missed a lot, so had to beg and plead with teacher to not give us any homework. AND SHE DIDN'T! SCORE! Still had to do a lesson about translations and reflections for homework, but still, not bad!

GO HOME TIME:
Making up all your notes in one day? SCORE! I assume high school will be more difficult.

The only problem now I'm having is my DVAR TORAH ISSUES! Stay tuned for part two!


seriously needs to get her excersizes down now,
