It was cold again today. No ice, but still cold.

In homeroom the other class wouldn't come for trivia. XP So we practiced our homeroom cheer, which is hilarious, and then we snuck into their classroom and yelled it at the top of our lungs. It was awwwwesome. And we woulda gone down to the office and broadcast it over the whole school (maybe) if the mayor hadn't been there. XD

In Math we did factoring and variables and I'm not exactly sure what it's called. I finished literally just as class ended, so no HW.

In Jewish Studies we did more stuff on Hanukkah. I doodled a Dalek, a Cyberman, and a dead elephant with a person under it. XD Don't ask.

In first period Humanities we talked about slavery.

At lunch I started out in Mr. T's room, then he said he was having makeups for some quizzes that people missed so I could either go to the other side of the room or go to Mr. D's room, where everyone else was. So I went to Mr. D's room, and then he came in and said we couldn't be in there because a sixth grader was taking a test, so everyone went back to Mr. T's room. XD

Second period Humanities was more on slavery.

In Hebrew we talked about friends and brothers and stuff.

Recess I read.

In double Science we went over the quiz (I got 96% ) and then did another lab. Mixing magnesium, hydrochloric acid, and fire is awwwwesome.

Lev's dad took me home and then I went to fencing.

Karen murdered us for the first half hour. Figuratively, of course. XD Then we fenced. Funny convo I overheard:

Rebecca: Ryan, how do I get Emily to fence me?
Ryan: Hit her upside the head with your blade and drag her onto the floor.
Rebecca: I think I might get in trouble for that.

XD

First I fenced Cece. She creamed me, 5-1 in probably about two minutes. XD And she's a year younger than me, too. Not to mention that I've been fencing for probably twice as long as her.

Then Karen said that if there were strips open she would kick us all out of the couch area, so everyone was volunteering other people to fence so they didn't have to. XD Then I fenced Ben. He beat me worse than Cece, it was 5-0 in probably a minute and a half. XD Then I took a lesson from Karen. She taught me how to parry. I've been fencing for four years, do I really need to learn this? XD Apparently I did, though, because she spent like ten minutes correcting my mistakes. XD

Then I fenced and lost to Emily, it was 5-4, I think, so that wasn't so bad. Then I fenced Bethany, and we had to stop halfway through because the class ended. It was either 3-1 or 4-1, I'm not sure, but she definitely beat me.

To summarize: Four bouts, lost all. One lesson. Brutal warmups and no game.

Fun.

But then when my dad picked me up he told me he'd gone to the library and gotten the second season of Torchwood. So me and my mom spent the rest of the night watching that.

Random thought of the day: Crap... I've been working on this blog for two hours and I still haven't done my HW. XD

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, before fencing I bought Vanilla Twilight.

I doodled a Dalek, a Cyberman, and a dead elephant with a person under it.

It seems you've been having some dark thoughts, Ratty. xD

I bought Vanilla Twilight.

Sweeeet!

Well the elephant actually had to do with my notes. XD Apparently that actually happened to Elezar. But the Dalek and the Cyberman were just cuz I was bored. Actually, I wanted to write something in electronic-type letters, and the first thing that came to mind was, "Exterminate." So I had to draw a Dalek, then I wrote "Delete," so I had to draw a Cyberman. And they both look horrible. XD And I just remembered that I actually doodled another Dalek on the second page and another Cyberman on some other notes, I'm not sure which. XD

xD I still say you've been having dark thoughts.

Meh, probably. XD
