Day 13

HHHHHEEEEEEEYYYYYY!!!!! I'm spazzy today. Yes!---no--YES!--NO--YES!!!!--no. i don't know why i'm spazzy today. Maybe it's because I saw the Void Stuff**. Yes, that might be it. SPEAKING of the Void Stuff, to see the Void Stuff requires 3D glasses, which I have. So I took my awesome Coraline ones to school to see if any of my peers have been through the void* between the dimension we live in and some other dimension. I don't know if it was the headache from wearing the glasses, but I DID SEE VOID STUFF.

But, I knew I wasn't going to wear the glasses all day, so I put them in my pocket until lunch. I put them on at lunch and my friends began laughing. I admit, I looked ridiculous. But it was the friendly type of laughing at you so I sat up nice and tall and said "THE VOID STUFF!"

But then, Sharpie came and ruined the fun. You remember Emma's English teacher, Sharpie, right? Well, she has third lunch supervision duty and this ensued:

Sharpie: Why are you wearing those?
Me: To see the Void Stuff.
Sharpie: Don't get sassy with me!
Me: I'm not! I'm really using them to see the Void Stuff. I saw it on Doctor Who.
Sharpie: Take em off!
Me: Why?
Sharpie: Their a nuisance item and they are almost like sunglasses and you can't wear sunglasses in school.
Me: But there's no rule that says I can't. Besides, I was only going to wear them during lunch. Well, I wore them for like a minute in science coming back from the practice test on the computer and for like five minutes in Mister E's, but he didn't care because we have ten or fifteen minutes of free time before class actually starts, and the glasses weren't bothering anyone. (Yes, i actually said all that)
Sharpie: I'll write you a referral. Do you want that?
Me: I don't even know what that is. What do they do in Referral-land?
Sharpie: Take them off.
Me: Reluctantly, one agrees.

So I took them off. But that sure didn't put a damper on my mood. YES!!!! I figured out why I'm spazzy. It's because of my awesome personal reading material. I got a Doctor Who book, and it's amazing! But I was talking about the rest of my day. After that mini battle-to-the-death, I went to strings, played my solo(I'm playing Eleanor Rigby) and went on to math. After school, I found out the school newspaper had been published and distributed and the article I co-wrote with Jaden was on the front page.

We had been assigned the Features section and were given two choices from the class vote: Write about Mohawk Kid(not his real name) and write about one of our classmates being adopted. Jaden originally chose Mohawk Kid leaving me with the ultra-super-sensitive-touchy subject of adoption. I didn't like that. So we ask the teacher if we could co-write one article about Mohawk Kid. Suffice to say, I did most of the work. I wrote the interview questions; wrote the history of mohawks, cuz we said readers needed some background; edited Jaden's part of the article; wrote the interview answers and took his picture. Jaden wrote like three paragraphs about Mohawk Kid. Just three paragraphs about him and his mohawk. It's a feature, we need more than that.

So that was my day.

Cheese Face out.

* the void is the space between dimensions
** void stuff is stuff from the void that floats around you when you travel through the void.
