Maybe It's Because You Slept on Your Bong Last Night

Sometimes when I try to connect to the internet it works offline so I have
to type something into Google and press enter to make it connect. Today I
typed "uyh" and this site came up:

corndog and rootbeer- How could anyone possibly question its allure to all
husbands and fathers around the world?

Maria is gone for drama until tonight, and I don't know what to do with
myself. I sent her like, three super long emails yesterday. Two in IP and
CS and one at noon.

Here was my day yesterday, as much as I can remember:

Chem: I actually get what we're doing. Yay me. For some reason Mr. Halyk
was like, "this room should be our own school division." and then he was
giving people titles and he turned to me and was like, "you can be...the
Superintendent of Dashboard Confessional" (I was wearing my DC shirt.) No
one likes the new school division. I like it because there are so many CIF
days that we get off. But there's also that rule about no games on the
computer. Apparently they take up bandwidth or something and make the
computers go slow, or something. Essentially, they take up Internet space.
Which shows how much Mr. Anderson knows about computers. We can't even play
Solitaire. I don't know why. Maybe because Solitaire leads to Freecell
which will ultimately lead to anarchy.

History: Mr. Halyk said I should go to SUNIA but I'm not sure if I want to.
Mr. Halyk was like "you, you, you and you should go," (Nolan, Florian,
Andra, me) and he turns to Jeff and was like, "you might not do so well.
There's a lot of researching and writing," and I thought it was sort of
tactless. Kyle was like, "I'm going!" (but of course he's not) and Mr.
Halyk was like, "I don't think it would be your thing," or something, and
Kyle's like, "are you calling me stupid?"

English: We started watching the BBC version of Romeo and Juliet. I think
Romeo's gay, because he leans really close to guys a lot. Professor Snape
is in it (he's Tybalt) and all the guys wear really really tight pants (look
at that tight ass! lol Maria) I love how everyone in Italy has British
accents. Sometimes the characters will go on these huge rants and I have no
clue what they're saying. Juliet's niurse talked for sooo long and I
understood about 10$ of it. Then a Capulet servant started talking away and
laughing and I really wanted to know what he was laughing at, but I didn't
understand a word of what he was saying. Something I didn't understand was
Juliet's mom said she had Juliet by the time she was fourteen, which would
make her twenty eight at the oldest, but she's about forty.

CS: I was the only one waiting by the lab for some reason; I don't know
where everyone else was. Ms came and she was like, "you look lonely," and
then started singing some song about a lonely girl. I was like, "Ms, why
did you go into teaching? You could have been a singer!" She was really
genial, until Kathryn and Lindsay started fooling around. Kathryn was
playing some game on Neopets and then she jerked back because something on
the screen scared her and I laughed so hard. Our class was writing a
program together and the run was supposed to look like this:
This
s
n
wesome.
I don't know why. Anyway, everyone had numbers in between the words, and I
didn't. Kerri was like, "you're supposed to have numbers in there," and I
didn't think you did. It had no point. But I put them back in by writing
FOUND=X+1 or something, and I was looking on Kathryn's program to see where
to put it and Kerri was like, "it has to go in right here," and I WASN'T
ASKING HER! She ALWAYS answers my questions, and it doesn't matter if I'm
asking her or not. GAH! And then Ms came around and said we weren't
supposed to have numbers SO I WAS RIGHT. Everyone in CS was wearing black
except for Kerri, who was in all white, and then Kathryn and Lindsay (who
came late) weren't wearing black or white. Before Kathryn and Lindsay came
it was cool. Even Ms was wearing black.

IP: I finished my assignments. I missed two days, and still some people
finished when I did. I don't know why, because it's not hard. The sheet we
got gives us step by step instructions. It's not like we have to figure
anything hard out. I don't understand why people in IP are so stupid.
Like, Tyson can't do anything by himself, he always asks Kerri what to do.
And Korby doesn't know how to insert WordArt or textboxes.

I got a phone call last night, and I'm getting a music festival award. I
should phone Lauren to see if she got a call as well. My brother might be
able to take me, if not, Dad has to. I remember the finale last year.
Jonas had to go because he had to play with the band (not everyone had to
play, but I can't remember why) and I was like, "it's so weird to not be
playing with the band," and Miss Menzie was like, "you're welcome to play if
you want," and she kept saying that as if she thought I really really wanted
to play with the band. I would rather swallow glass.
Which reminds me (band, not the glass) Danny and Damien were walking down
the hallway and

Danny was like, "Robin, you have to see this!" and he showed me some kind of
autotraders booklet thing, I don't know exactly what it was, and there was a
picture of Mr. Gibney and it said, "James Gibney's pick of the week," and it
said his favourite truck or something. Danny was so excited and went around
showing everyone in the band.

After school I went to Baba's before drama, and my aunties Joan and Deanna
are there. They're so hilarious. Last time I was there for drama I watched
Dr. Phil at four and that's when Young and the Restless is on, and Auntie
Joan likes to watch it. Yesterday I asked her if she watched her soap
operas today, and she's like, "Young and the Restless is on in half and
hour!" and I'm like, "so's Dr. Phil!" and then afterwards she was like, "was
Dr. Phil good today?" and I'm like, "yeah," and she's like, "I wonder if
Young and the Restless was good today?" Dr. Phil was actually kind of
creepy. There was a guy who was obsessed with his wife, and he put GPS in
her van and he broke into her email and MySpace and had to know where she
was all the time, and once he locked her in the basement. He also wanted to
get her pregnant so she would stay with him, and he made an incision so it
looked like he had a vasectomy but he really didn't. It was sooo creepy.
And she was married to him for 11 years. Dr. Phil was trying to save their
marriage but ew. I would never be able to stay married with that guy.

Prompting is difficult. You don't know if the actors are pausing for effect
or if they need their line. My motto is "when in doubt, prompt." I
prompted Bryce once or twice when he didn't need to be, and then when he had
his monologue I prompted him and he got so mad. He was facing away from me
so I couldn't see his face or anything. Mr. Halyk was like, "she doesn't
know whether you're pausing for effect and you can't hear her anyway, so if
you don't need the prompt don't take it." Duh. So I was like, "I'm not
prompting you again Bryce." And then he started again and like, three words
in he needed a prompt. I didn't prompt. He looked over at me sheepishly
and was like, "can I have a line?" Then he sat down in a chair near me and
I'm like, "Bryce, I'm not prompting you again." And then he said he was
sorry and he only got mad because since he had to take over that part for
Carter he hasn't memorized it all the way and Mrs. Pitstick was getting mad
at him. He kept saying sorry over and over until finally I was like, "okay,
I forgive you." I prompted Celise when she didn't need to be prompted and
she kind of got annoyed. I prompted Ian when he didn't need to be prompted
and he didn't do anything. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO. I think
they'd rather have me prompt when they didn't need it than to not prompt
when they needed it, but apparently they haven't realized that. Damn
temperamental actors. I remember last year they kept getting mad at Amanda
because she prompted when they didn't need it. Now I know how hard it is to
tell the difference between dramatic pausing and needing a prompt pausing.

Funny stories in drama: Ian was supposed to say, "I can change things inside
of men," and instead he said, "I can do things inside of men," and
apparently I was the only one who took that in an inappropriate way, and I
started laughing. And once when Bryce was doing his monologue he said, "it
sounded like a bus wreck," or something, and the sound people were supposed
to make the bus wreck sound go, but iinstead it was the fairy wand sound
effect. It was funny. During one of the parts of the play the clock has to
strike and everyone goes, "BONG." It's sooo funny. In another part, Ian is
playing the part of Alexander Papaderos, a Greek who built an institute
devoted to making peace between the Cretans (is it Cretans or Cretes?
Whatever, people from Crete) and the Germans, and Ian was supposed to say
his line and he started coughing so hard that his face turned red and he
couldn't stop. Mr. Halyk was like, "And then, Alexander Papaderos died."

I finished season 5 of X-Files today. One of Mulder's old girlfriends came
back and Scully and her are jealous of each other. I'm thinking of going to
the Skinner team, but I can't abandon Scully. I think three times now,
Mulder has tried to beat up Skinner and Skinner schools him. It's
hilarious.

I'm going to go watch Jurassic Park. Ciao.
