Speaking of SURVIVAL, right now I'm just trying to get through middle school. And the last few days haven't been all that great.
Even though it's warm outside, the thermostat at school still think it's WINTER. So the furnace is on full blast all day, which makes it hard to concentrate in class.
And it's worse in the CAFETERIA because there aren't any windows you can open to get fresh air.
The heat has been frying my brain, and I've been forgetting when my homework is due. I forgot a really BIG one today. which was my country project for the International Showcase.
Back in Novmenber, everyone had to choose a country to do a report on. I picked Italy because I'm a HUGE pizza fan.
But it tums out Italy was a really popular choice, so my Social Studies teacher had to draw names to decide who got it. And she chose Dennis Tracton, which isn't fair because he's lactose intolerant and can't even eat cheese.
So the teacher assigned me Malta, which I didn't even know was a country.
Anyway, that. was two months ago, and I didn’t give my country project a second thought until TODAY. And the only reason I remembered was because when I got to school everybody was wearing weird clothes.
I probably should've realized it was International Showcase day when my friend Rowley came to get me for school wearing a crazy get-up. But he's ALWAYS doing strange stuff, so. I barely even noticed.
