Best English Class Ever.

Yesterday I had an English class with one of the teachers that I didn't actually even previously think was cool, which I'm now wondering how I ever thought, because yesterday was seriously the most fun I've ever had in English.

Okay so before class started we were all talking about superhero movies (specifically Iron Man 3 and Man of Steel) and then one of the girls said, "Why are we talking about superheroes?" and then all of the guys started defending their choice of conversation, while I said "Well, I think last time I was in a class we talked about pop bands, so I guess we have to give the guys one every now and then." She agreed so we kept on talking until class started.

The class was about poetry, and nothing much happened then except Mr. Buys told the guys that they should memorize Sonnet #14 because someday they'll date a girl who'll find it romantic and all of their responses (and some of the girls' vehement denials) were absolutely hysterical.

After it was over and he said we could start talking again there's always an awkward pause so to break it up I said, "So. Smurfs." and everybody started laughing, but unbeknownst to me Mr. Buys was still online and said "Constance wants to talk about smurfs now because she's sick of talking about superheroes," and I started cracking up but then he kept going with, "How about a superhero smurf?" So then we were all like "Oh yeah, Smurf Man" and stuff like that and he says "I know! Man of Smurf." and I died.

Then everybody left except for me and Christine and we just fangirled over Doctor Who until Mr. Buys closed it.

Yep, so basically my English class is cooler than your English class.

'kay bye.

Things That Have Happened Lately, Installment #1

I overheard my baby sister asking if "pickles are a fruit or a vegetable." *sigh*

I invented a new word- squiddle. It's that little dance move that the penguins in Madagascar do after saying "You didn't see annnyyythiiinnngg..." and before disappearing. Man, I love those penguins.

I wanted some toast. Too bad it has stupid gluten in it. What else are you supposed to eat when you're sick?  Crackers? Nope, gluten. Or... um... I don't really eat anything else when I'm sick. Except for cookies. Yeah. Cookies.

I remembered how much I love beef jerky. That stuff is so good.

And... I'm really tired right now so I can't remember anything else, but I'm always making these up in my head, so FRET NOT, there shall be another one soon :)

Butterflies: Take 2

So, I've gotten a ton and then another ton of feedback on the butterfly post- you can (re)read it here- so I decided to do a follow up :)

Question number 1- Are you really afraid of butterflies?

Answer- yes, yes I am really afraid of butterflies. I don't know why, and honestly I don't care why. I just am... hate those things...

Question number 2- I love butterflies [well that's nice.], how could you not like butterflies [already addressed this]? Anyway, I was wondering, are you afraid of that other kind of butterfly yet? The kind that you put the picture of?

Answer- I am, actually... but I decided to leave it up for the enjoyment of my followers. The things I do for you guys...

Question numero trois- You're afraid of butterflies, huh? So what would you do if I brought a butterfly over here right now?

Answer- To be perfectly honest, I would give you the most disgusted look I can manage (which is pretty disgusted; I've had plenty of practice) and then walk away. Gosh, I'm afraid of butterflies, not instantly crippled by the sight of them. Yes, I've had panic attacks because of them before, yes, they were back to back to back under ten minutes, but one butterfly is hardly going to do that.
In conclusion, I'd probably slap you.

To make up for my not posting in a while, I bring you this incredibly disgusting picture that I found completely by accident for once:


Honestly, what is happening to kids these days.
