Two short days here. Hope you like sentence fragments! Here's where some madness starts to seep in, most visible in certain bolded phrases in the first and penultimate paragraphs.

On that note, I hope you're all staying relatively sane during this fall. At our school they're doing a Great job of keeping us calm by showing us a film called "500 words or less": a documentary about 5 kids who are working their asses off for college and one who's just like 'fuck that' and dressing up for homecoming instead. They jump between segments using a shot of a camera zooming down a hallway while voices speak about different aspects of the application process and words like "early decision", "teacher recs", or "financial aid" flash across the screen. It's doing wonders. In the not-doing-wonders-at-all sense.

Stay happy

Day 13

Woke up on time this morning and went to my chore. Swept and didn't unload, because Pat (I think... Marlilyn is one chef, I'm not sure on the other one's name [YIKES]) had to label them. In Spanish we did some AP listening comprehension activities. Crazy nostalgia trip. I dropped my watch beneath the table. In E. Sci. I revised my chapter. I still have a little bit to do, and I'll ask Pat tomorrow.

There was a good discussion in History; I can't really remember right now. In English Megan K and I discussed the story, then Maddy, David, Taylor, Claire and I did. Lunch was oh shit breakfast. It was cream of wheat, which was tasty with cinnamon. Orange. Toast with gravy sausage. Lunch was leftovers... Spanish rice, other things. Have to go quickly, roommates sleeping. Had fun with hallie, then david and nell on our outdoor program hike up the mountain. Didnt get lost. Kathy had a too land [long?] seminar at the start. Takes it too seriously. Checked my sat scores during the free: 2010! I guess that's good.

Precalc was lol, I sat on a high stool. Hallie was acting odd, so was Maddy. Lex is questionable. He wasn't at outdoor times. Hallie gave her humbles about peeing herself during an sat ii and lying about being at the mountain school. I sat with dan and alana, two tms alums. Dinner was beef stroganoff, salad, and great herb bread. Did work with hallie and megan b, in miles. We did most of math. I did some history, e. sci. and spanish before checkin, then finished history after. Reading english tomorrow in a free. Lots of laughs in the common room. Sleep now.

Day 14

I also have to write this quickly. Breakfast: pancakes. Syrup. Good. History. Quiz on Monday, interesting ppt and discussion. Precalc: boring. Spanish: read a story about a Dad giving his 16 month year child pot. Played a fun conjuguemos game. E. Sci. had a cool lecture about stars. Lunch was a food. Quiche.

Science Hike for Work/Activities was long. We took lots of samples. In my free I did no work, just read digg and facebooked. English was cool; Jack read from my journal twice: once about imagining friends here, and another one about imaging worlds. Dinner was more food. Sam had a cake. Jacob pwns all the dish crew bitches and hos. [I have no idea what I meant by this... I guess you're good at dish crew?] I don't remember what dinner was- oh right the third thanksgiving.

We had that big group discussion about stepping into the circle if something applied to you. The talk afterwards in miles was depressing. The dorm meeting was fun. We talked about laundry and song choices. Then we played Wagon Wheel together. Then Rafi shaved Sam. Then I went to bed.
