Free Mods!! :D

Today in class we got a free mod, because once again we are ahead of the other classes. I got to finish my math homework, and read my book called Dorothy Must Die which is really good so far. Apparently I have an evil laugh, according to Mr. Schick. Looking forward to the weekend, beach time!!!! :D

Grandparents Day....... Rant........

Today in class was Grandparent's Day, which was a lovely day for grandparents and grandchildren. Unfortunately my grandparents could not attend due to "work" being done on their home. I was sad all day today because it was another day reminding me of how non involved my grandparents are. I'm used to it but I really wanted to show them the plaque outside the main office with all the freshman who got FIRST HONORS because my name is on that list. Then having to go home and write two essays that were due tomorrow and friend drama, my Thursday was peachy. But from this weekend on I will be at the beach every weekend until summer and then I will be down there for weeks at a time. Over all class was good today, yet depressing.

*********Excuse my rant I am just very upset**************

Rome Projects

Today in class we started our Rome projects, and me and Trish are doing two projects. We are writing two diaries and a song. The diaries will be about a plebeian girl and boy who get married and describe their daily lives. The song is about Rome, and we are going to perform it in front of the class.  

Baltimore Riots....

Today in class we discussed the riots in Baltimore, and Mr. Schick showed us a song that someone wrote 40 years ago that describes perfectly what is going on. The riots are really making me upset and a little angry. It makes me upset seeing how they are destroying Baltimore City. They are destroying their town!! When people call them protesters it makes me angry, because this is not protesting!! Setting cars on fire, severely injuring people, looting stores, burning buildings, is not protesting. This is very wrong, and they need to stop. The National Guard can not step in soon enough. They are putting people in danger, and people do not even feel safe in their home town!! WE ARE IN THE NEWS IN IRELAND AND KHLOE KARDASHIAN HAS POSTED ON INSTaGRAM "PRAY FOR BALTIMORE".  Tons of celebrities are acknowledging our city, this is how bad it is. This has to stop, people are in danger. I'm praying for peace in Baltimore City. I mean the Archdiocese had to close schools. (Mercy, Curley, Calvert Hall, IND, NDP, and Catholic High) These riots are putting education on hold. We need to stop these riots. 

                                                                                         

Rome Project

Today in class we talked about our rome project. Me and Trish are going to write a song about Rome to Royals and perform it in front of the class. 

Munchkins And Chi-Cago!

Today in class we went over Chi-cago's "When in Rome" rap and discussed it and went into more detail. Veronica brought in three boxes of munchkins which were really yummy so thank you Veronica! :) Then Mr. Schick talked to us about how his daughter came back into the US last night! Overall, today was a pretty good class!

Essay Results! :D

Today in the beginning of class we got some free time while Mr. Schick finished grading our papers. I appreciated the free time and I was happy when I got our paper back. My group with Trish, Rosemary, and we got a 91!! I was so happy!!
