2nd day o' school

English Comp:

I just squeaked into class under the wire today. I was delayed by a phone call from AAA about a job that won't pan out.
So, I ran from the "yonder back forty" of the campus parking lot, through the wind and rain, to Tower A room 217.
I was completely out of breath, and had visible snot hanging from my nose. I felt pretty. I had to sit on the late row by the classroom door.
Apparently, the row next to me is what we'll call the "feedbag row", as all four students were consuming junk food from loud, crinkly bags.
All.friggin.class.long.
It's 9:30a, and I guess when the call for Hot Fries and Rap Snacks, complemented with open-mouth chewing, answers, then you just pick that red line right up.
Today we discussed the elements of righting a good essay.
I think my title will be, "My Dumb,Fat Ass Classmates are Retards", or "I Can Hear Your Diabetes".


Algebra:

Algebra was okay. I was able to correctly do the problems she presented.
The only thing out of left field, was when she mentioned she was a Christian and did not like language that pertained to bodily functions.
I didn't hear anyone say that myself, but then she went on to say that she was always open to discuss her faith with us on her off time.
Oh boy... or Lord, rather.
Our first quiz is next class.

Oral Comm:

Ms. Moody had us do a small group project. We had 12 minutes to cut words or pictures that represented us out of magazines, and present in front of the class.
Had I known that, I would have picked up a copy of "Modern Drunkard" or "Garden and Gun".
Seriously, those are real publications:

http://www.moderndrunkardmagazine.com/
http://gardenandgun.com/

Instead, I found a picture of a little row boat in the ocean. I can identify with that.
The rest of my group found jewelry, money, an aluminum water bottle, and a heart shaped cut-out of some soap opera star or model-looking fellow.
This exercise was to show us how to prepare for a presentation.
I may use my English essay title again.

Media:

Cancelled due to to the professor being on tour.
This was my favorite class today.

Now, me and my chicken fingers need to get our drink on!
