Bernath,
That's almost as terrifying as second period's in-class performance today.
John,
Tomorrow your class will not talk. It will write the entire period. DBQ. And Thursday as well.

P.S Why does blogspot insist on making my name enter as lowercase?

Carlisle, I know that you're really frustrated with 2nd period, but are we still good for tomorrow after school so I can finish the test?
8:17 PM
Chris,
Of course. I would never deny you the opportunity to finish your test just b/c your class displayed massive amounts of slackness and disrespectful behavior today. Be there at 2:51.

Carlisle,
I got a new Explosions in the Sky CD - "Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die". Do you want to borrow it?
:)

Ok cool thanks. I had to make sure that you weren't one of those people that when they get mad, they get horribly irrational.
9:04 PM
Yeah, you'd think that you'd feel somewhat better 10 hours later. You don't, you feel worse.

I'm going to try and get my mind of the whole feeling bad thing...
I learned about the Civil War in the 8th grade, though, we really only covered the Union, and even then the unit was pretty brief. I wasn't very satisfied by it, so I'm glad I get the History Channel because they do some good Civil War stuff. After WWII, Civil War has to be my favorite unit in history, ever. I especially like the part about the secession of West Virginia from Virginia in order to rejoin the Union.
Hmm... Well, I made myself feel better while typing that, though I'm right back to where I was now... yeah now I feel worse for realizing I'm going to be dwelling on this all Christmas Break and that I made my Christmas Break not as good as it could have been.

Humprhey,
Word! Can you bring it in tomorrow? I can return it to you the very next day.

Hey Carlisle, so i was about to turn in my IA to turnitin.com, when i realized i dont have your class id and password. I might forget to ask you for it tomorrow before the test, so if you could please post it on the blog or white board, that would be lovely! Thanks =)

Just for the record:Nicole Bernath is from the future.
That story busted out all over the news today.
Was there ever a time when celebrities weren't breaking news?
Anyway, my theory is that she got pregnant on purpose because she's got an inferiority complex.
Her sister completely fails at life and gets more attention then her.
You know I just remembered that I saw a test prep sheet from one of the regular history classes. It was pretty much like that, but with less room for creativity. I swear the students could just cram 5 minutes before the test and fill in the answers.
Personally I'm glad we have essays.
My cousin told me that in Forest Grove they don't even give the option for advanced classes. That would suck.
