Today's Amusing Anecdotes:
- Mr. Long mentioned Seurat today. He asked us which movie a certain painting was featured in. I correctly said "Ferris Beuller". Ha! How much do I rock? Mr. Long says Ferris Beuller is "the movie that every red-blooded American teenager should see". I was a bit confused, but I thought it was funny anyway.
- The checkout woman at Barnes and Noble said I had a Romanian accent. I was confused then, too. I've never been to Romania, and I certainly don't have any Romanian ancestry. Curious.
- She also said that they don't give discounts to people whose pseudonyms are listed in "Internet Resources of Interest". Oh well.
- According to our Government class' definition of nations and states, nation-states are incestuous. That wasn't a very pretty thought.
- Mr. Spencer, the Government teacher, (no relation) drew a picture of Europe. The class agreed that it was definitely not Europe. It was, in fact, a grazing cow.
- My dad and I had lunch with Mr. Caldwell today. He's one of my dad's best friends. I'm getting him to read the Discworld series. I've already converted my best friend, Chungy.
- I had dinner with my maternal aunt and uncle. My uncle works for some technology company thing, and he always has the coolest stuff. I'm envious.
