Coming to you once again from the computer lab. The Internet at my house is broken; therefore, I couldn't post a blog yesterday and I'm very sorry.
Today is the last day of school before we go on spring break, and you can really tell. Everyone's been getting restless, and not just the students. A lot of the teachers have just decided they don't really care anymore, at this point--The quiz in APUSH was cancelled, because the teacher didn't want to write one, and now our English teacher is just setting us loose in the computer lab, because nobody wants to do anything.
He's even letting people go on Facebook. This is crazy.
I can't pretend I'm not as excited as everyone else for spring break. I can't wait. Therefore, this post is going to be short, kinda crappy, and not very deep, because I don't have the capacity of thinking deep thoughts right now. I try, for the purposes of making these ramblings sound interesting, to not just record random disconnected observations about a person, but that's probably what this is going to be.
Anyway, next week, since there's no school, I probably won't be posting at all. If I find a stranger to observe, I may stalk them for a few minutes and then whip up a blog about them.
In the meantime... I'm still stuck in the computer lab with my English class.
Let's see what everyone's doing.
Doodle Hands and her best friend are sitting to my right. They've been browsing DeviantArt, reading online comics, and now they're playing Addicting Games.
The Paper Passer was watching YouTube videos of people playing mandolins and harps, but now she seems to have disappeared. Her stuff is still here, though. Her cute brown flowery bag, and her battered Calculus book.
A boy and a girl who are both wearing Letterman jackets are sitting at the same computer, sharing a pair of earphones. The air is thick with sexual tension. They're both attractive, and they're both aware of it. Letterman Girl's knee is just barely brushing against Letterman Boy's. I can't see what site they're on, but they're trying not to look at each other--only at the screen. Letterman Boy is typing. Letterman Girl checks her phone.
The guy next to them, who is one of those Late-Bloomer types whom everyone is friends with but nobody really likes, keeps bothering them, and Letterman Girl jokes with him while Letterman Boy keeps typing, trying to ignore him.
The Only Asian Kid In Class was playing a maze game, probably on Addicting Games or a similar site. Now he and the kid next to him are spamming each other with gibberish in Facebook chat. ...And now he's leaving. Might have to leave early for a sport, might've gotten bored.
Some girls are online shopping for prom dresses.
Brown Bag is looking at pictures on Facebook, next to another popular misfit. I can't see her face from here.
Remus isn't at a computer. He's sitting in a swivelly chair, behind two of his friends, watching their screens. He's just turning back and forth, occasionally voicing a thought about whatever they're doing. Eventually, he gets bored, scoots backwards across the classroom, and props his feet up on an empty chair next to another group of boys.
Somebody in this class just said, "I don't think you're a pickle." It's fun to listen to conversations out of context.
I don't know what the Loner's doing. Maybe I should go find him. I'm willing to bet that he's getting a head start on the spring break history homework.
Well, this has been fun, readers, but frankly I'm getting bored, and you probably are, too. Hopefully I'll get the chance/inspiration to blog again soon, but in the meantime, I can't say it enough: Thank you so much for reading. I hope those of you who are on spring break have a great vacation, I hope those of you who celebrate it have a great Easter, and I hope that everyone in general has a great week! This is Your Faithful Observer, signing off for the week. <3
