Woke up half an hour early again today. NaNo'ed until breakfast and then NaNo'ed some more afterwards.

We were maybe going to have a trivia contest in homeroom today but we had to go listen to a rabbi from Uganda speak instead.

Math was overruled by the rabbi from Uganda too.

We missed a little bit of Jewish Studies for the talk, but when it was over our rabbi was so busy talking to him that we just hung out in the library for like 35 minutes with just one mom as our adult supervision, and she was too busy running after her four-year-old to do much else. XD The librarian got so mad when she came in and saw how loud we were being. I checked out Remnants since I had nothing else to do and it is SO. GOOD. Freaky, though. o.0

In first period Humanities we had the Pinhead Café.

At lunch everybody was on sugar high from the café and screaming into the mike and banging on the drum set. XD

Second period Humanities was more Pinhead Café. I had to go up and read one of my freewrites and I was literally shaking. Noticably. I think I also spoke too fast... XP

In Hebrew we talked about dreams. I was kinda spacey, though... *blames NaNo*

Recess I read in the Science room.

Double Science we had a quiz (easy peasy, I'd rather take a Science quiz than do open mike any day XP) and we had to do some worksheets and stuff.

Lev's dad gave me a ride home and then I got on the computer until fencing. Nothing too interesting happened at fencing... Oh, except after we'd unsuited Karen said, "Okay, if you want to play dodgeball, go set it up." One person went to set it up. XD

Random thought of the day: Well, I was going to show you guys what a pinhead looks like, but since it's 46 minutes past bedtime and I don't have time to scan in a pic, I'll do it tomorrow, maybe.

Sounds like your day was interesting!! xDD How many words did you get done?

IDK, I think I just barely got past the word goal, which was... 6667, I think.

Have you read Remnants?

Awesome.

Nope. xD What's it about?

It's another series by K.A., about a bunch of different people who are among the eighty humans chosen to survive a 76-mile asteroid (the one that wiped out the dinos was 10 miles) by fixing up an old rocket and going into hibernation. It actually takes place it 2011, but we're probably not gonna have that technology by then. XD She should have made it 12/21/12, which is when the Mayan calendar says the world is gonna end. That woulda been cool.

OMG . . . Sweeeet. I wanna reeeeead it now!!!

Wait - I thought the Mayan calendar's end was last year?

It's SO good. But I'm 8th on the holds list for the second...

Nope, it's 2012.

Ugh!! xD Is it a new series?

No, it came out right after Animorphs. IDK why there's so many holds... There's at least fourteen, though.

Whooooooa. xD That's bizarre.

IKR? The first one's called The Mayflower Project if you wanna see if you can find it.

Okai. :3 Thanks!
