Myth Presentation and Alex Award Project!!!

We played capture the flag today, which I sort of tried in (I was defending), but after I narrowly missed getting slapped in the face, I stopped going after the really fast, crazy I-flag-guard-for-my-life people. Plus, I'm still sick, so I couldn't breathe after. -.- But it was pretty fun, so...

We had a "superquiz" in history, which I probably failed, but I can't check my grade, because SCHOOLLOOP IS DOWN. Ugh. Then we have an essay on Wednesday, which is going to be kind of hard to write for me, but whatever.

English was pretty fun though! Dalton and I presented our myth project, but that was sort of messed up. Basically, I had all these props, and I talked through the first few paragraphs, and I started coughing really bad, so I told Dalton to take over, but he had absolutely NO IDEA what we're talking about. So he takes the summary, and reads off of it (word for word), which really isn't what the summary was for, since the language wasn't exactly an "informal, teaching" dialogue. The horse I made was pretty cool though, and everyone got a good laugh out of the skit, which I must admit, Dalton edited pretty well. Then no one got 100% on our quiz, and like, more than half the class failed it, which I found really weird, as I made sure to emphasize the questions with "And make sure you know," or "This is really important," but I guess between the skit and everything, people just forgot... But that really sucks, as it's part of my grade... But I hope I get extra credit for my props?

Bio was pretty fun. We finished up out DNA fingerprinting lab, and got to see these bands of glow-in-the-dark DNA fragments under UV lights. It was pretty cool.

I was so freaking tired today though, and I have no idea why, but I finished my WHOLE Alex Award project yesterday! EVERYTHING! Besides reading the book, that is. But anyways, my project consists of one VERY crappily written poem which really isn't what she wanted at all, seeing as it's mainly a retelling of the story, two pictures, and this wooden swan I made. XD I hope I get an A on that though...

Friday was... interesting. Let's just say that I was "massacred" (not really, but... =P) by some girls during Chinese school telling me to go out with this one guy. It was rather funny, but sort of weird, seeing as afterward, every one of my Chinese school friends was like, "What was THAT about?" Some of my best friends weren't there though, so I guess I won't get bothered about it too much...
