Coffee Could Possibly Be Used as an Effective Torture Method


Hi, guys!!!!
I would like to tell you about my homeroom. I have Gym first period, so I have a hallway locker. A really good location, because me and my friends and my friend's friends can hang out there until Dean Paige comes by with the bullhorn. Plus, I have a top locker, and I don't have anyone underneath me, so I am not fighting for space (funny story... you'll have to ask me personally about that one...) But, anyway, then I go to the Auditorium until 8:00, which is when the torture of Gym class begins. Gym is actually quite a good homeroom to have, because you get the cushy, padded seats, and a huge screen to watch the often comical announcements on. Plus, I have two friends in there, so it's all good. (Until next semester, which starts in 10 days, which is when I get a new homeroom... Emergent Tech... ew...... and don't get me started on semester exams...) Anyways, I'm usually one of the first ones in, if I'm not wandering the hallways completing miscellaneous tasks. Of course, my two friends are always the last ones in, so I usually must sit in my seat until they come, and we can hang out until the bell rings. However, my seat is right next to a huge group of loud and obnoxious guys whose main topics of conversation are football (which I don't understand), food, and how deprived they are because their parents do not let them shoot squirrels with their BB guns. Anyways, today I got fed up, so I left and sat and just waited for my friends. They all shouted "bye" at me. It gave me satisfaction to leave them behind. Small pleasures.
Speaking of pleasures, today I tried strong, plain coffee today. It was the opposite of pleasant. I took one sip, made a face, and continued to eat my potato. Honestly, I would rather drink medicine. It was NASTY. I don't understand how people willingly drink that stuff. Like, ew. I now understand why Starbucks puts all the frilly stuff on top of and in it. Because, otherwise, everyone would drink it and spit it out. And how is that for business??
I have another topic to discuss. It is the Science Fair. Try to keep up, but you might not get it. So, today, in History, I found out that the Science Fair had just gotten a little more interesting, and I was excited. In spite of this, I then went to Language Arts and I wasn't so excited anymore. Actually, I wasn't excited at all. Because, I'm so DONE with all of this "interesting" rubbish. I mean, I have WAAAAAAYYYYYYY better things to do than even think about this. So, as a result, not only this particular interesting thing is DTM (dead to me), but the whole societal interestingness is DTM. For now. The entire middle school population of them is SSSSSOOOOO 7 hours ago. Totally. Keep up, will ya?? So, there are most DEFINITELY no Blocks of Wood in my future for at least another year. I've got all the time in the world. And, I advise everyone to do the same as me, if you even know what I'm talking about... And, you know what?? I'll find the best Block of Wood when I'm not looking for it. so, I'm just chillin' and livin'. It will just have to wait. WOO-HOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)
Back to topics more people will actually understand... I'm going to a winter dance this Friday, sponsored by the cheerleaders. (Yes, cheerleaders... I've been friends with 3 of them in the last year, and some of them aren't bad. SOME!!!) But, anyway, they're "crowning the king and queen of the 8th grade". This makes me mad. You can bet that it will not be the people with the highest GPA, or one that is kind to everyone, or one that participates in school functions and community service. It's going to be the girl with the straightest hair, and the tightest jeans, and the one that walks like she owns the school, and treats everyone like she is sooooo above them. It's going to be the one that always has someone to hang out with, and the one that gossips about the A-listers and doesn't know my name. It's going to be the one that everyone knows about and secretly hates, the one that everyone in school not friends with her wants her taken down. It's gonna be that one. Just wait.
