I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind, pretend that i am weightless
And in this moment i am happy

I wish you were here
-Incubus


i walked the corridor along the labs. then as i neared the area outside the faculty room, i noticed something on the floor. it was... the remains of a frog... namely a frogs leg... and a mush of what i guessed where frog innards... what a way to start a day at school. i laughed the rest of the way up to the classroom.

with nothing to do at the house meeting, i followed loren up to the the multi to watch them play table tennis.
"feel the wrath of my paddle!"
i hung around with cel and mikee. then issa and jo showed up too. we let the time pass by.



two minutes had passed. i grinned at maecy. we started out the door. she lead the way into the bathroom. as i pushed one door open, its suddenly pushed back. i grinned again, and pushed again. i won, and laughter was heard. cel. one down. the next door wouldnt be pushed. so i entered the cubicle next to that, stood on the toilet.
"boo."
"aah!"

two down. no one else in the bathroom. scanned the cartooning club and the empty I-2 classroom. nada. however, we found two camoflauging themselves amongst the members of Bead It. we charged into the bathroom on the other side, drawing some attention to those in the locker area...
ms gaye: hoy! what are you guys up to?
us: *grins* nooothing!

i went into the computer room, where sr iris and sir jimenez raised eyebrows as i whipped around the rows. maecy had more luck outside, in the I-5 classroom, finding quite a number. but there were still a few left to be accounted for. i noticed the door of the broom closet beside the computer room was ajar. i went in. boxes.
me: *opens a box* *sees a head* *taps it* one! *opens another* two! *opens another* three! *pause* *places hands on hips* out with the lot of you!
*several heads appear*
me: *laughs* race you back to room!

more commotion, more laughs.
back at the room...
miz m: what did you feel?
loren: nostalgic...
me: high.
billie: thin. i fit in a box!

childhood stories were told. miz m instructed us to write a piece based on the theme and the feelings and memories that were evoked from the activity. a small group of us remained in the classroom while most went out. we ended up sharing more stories and laughs instead of doing the assigned work.

audience: *practically falls of thier chairs*


i actually like CAT today. my usual counterpart was absent again, so i taught another kid. i worked with therese since lex was absent. she was kinda intimidated at first coz she feared the lessons to be hard... but as she got the hang of it, she grew more confident and with encouragement, was performing really well. she was a bright kid, with spirit. when i stood up as the session ended, she stood up too and latched her arms around my waist. i smirked, patted her head, then picked her up and carried her to the rest of her group.
