This week began with Memorial Day which got us out of school. It was lovely.

Tuesday was boring. One of us was dead because the other one made her come to school. Nothing eventful happened. Wednesday was smart kid award day. Meaning we had to dress up and sit for two hours while people--mostly Josh Clark--got awards and stuff. We were both Smartypants McGees and got trophies, pins, and letters. It was beautiful. The trophies, as shown below, feature the "lamp of learning" which looks like you could rub it and the genie of learning would come do your homework.

Wednesday and Thursday were usual boring school days. You know, with the usual boy arm brushing, book sharing, yelling at dumb people, hating math, etc. Nothing particularly interesting. Friday was our ninth grade class party. Basically a bunch of smelly teenagers in a big room with some inflatables all yelling and signing yearbooks. Mostly, we ate food and took pictures of Jacob Bartee. Thrilling, I know.

On Saturday, there was some miserable baseball action and yardwork with papas. Absolutely fascinating, I agree. Sunday, there was some bread on bread action amidst "studying" for finals. Also, My Fair Lady was on TV which equaled no studying or even "studying". Then we died.
Amazing, you say! It is truly amazing what one can accomplish in but one week.
