free moment

Things were getting a little hectic at school right before christmas break. My english class was starting to be awfully taxing and time consuming with two shakespeare plays I had to read and analyze. As a class we all had to read The Tempest, and then for our other play we got to chose between King Henrey VIII, The Merchant of Venice, Twelth Night, and one more that i can't recall. Most people chose Twelfth Night because of that Amanda Bynes movie, She's the Man. Then every one else were pretty evenly split between King Henry and the play I can't remember. So the smallest group was for Merchant of Venice and consisted of myself and my best friend. This gorgeous boy that's in my class wasn't there when the class chose their plays so the next day he offered to be in our Merchant of Venice group. Me and Melissa were both very very excited. At the start of the assignment he seemed to be doing most of the work which was surprising. Melissa and I had a study day at my house to do the work for the play but we ended up spending most of the time shopping for prom dresses online. I ended up just grabbing some pre written stuff online for the questions i was assigned. I had continuously put off reading the actual play, but eventually the day where we would be questioned in panel fashion by my english teacher to gauge our analytical understanding of the play. Using what little i picked up from copying answers online and what melissa had sumed up for me, I was able to brilliantly BS my way through the questioning. My teacher praised my insightful and brilliant answers while melissa gave me death glares for outdoing her without having read a single page of the play.
Annatomy has been a pain in the keister lately because we had to form groups and present different chapters for the chapter review before the semester final. Since i was sick, i wasn't much help to my group and i was dreading presenting in front of the class because i had absolutely no voice and Mr.Mayo said he was going to be merciless in taking off points during the presentation. Luckily the presentations were taking longer then expected so my group isn't going to present until after the break. So hopefully this damn cold will be gone and i will have my voice back.
My dad jusr came home so i'm going to call it quits. I doubt i'll post tonight because i have a christmas party at my grandma's house and i doubt i'll post tomorrw since it will be christmas... so, have a merry christmas.
