The Lovely Bones

The first two hours of class were biology and chemistry and I read The Lovely Bones.  I couldn't even stop reading when break came around because it was so good!  For the third hour of class, the religion teacher wasn't there so another teacher came to watch over the class and she took us to another classroom to watch a movie.  We all sat down and when she played the movie, students were making squeaking noises with their chairs, talking, playing with there phones, and making fun of the movie.  The last straw was when everybody started singing happy birthday to Emily (it was her birthday) really loudly.  She went and got the principal and the principal didn't really say much.  The teacher was really mad and she brought us back to our classroom.  The class continued to be rude and when the bell rang, she stormed.  I don't think I said one word that whole hour.  When we got back to class, I started to read my book again, continuing through physics and english as well.  During the english hour, while I was reading, the teacher sat on his desk and talked with the students in Italian until the last 10 minutes of class when he started to read out of the textbook.  I couldn't even understand what he was saying when he was speaking in English.  It seems to me like he's given up on trying to get the class to pay attention.

After lunch, I finished the last 6 pages of my book and then got ready to go to Janie's house.  I went over there around 3:30 and she took a shower while I started watching The Lovely Bones movie.  She's already seen it before and she doesn't like those types of movies.  The movie was really long so while I watched the movie, she found new music and did stuff on her computer. I basically went over there so that we could be in each other's company.  When my movie was over, Janie and I talked for a little bit and then I was picked up.  The Lovely Bones movie was actually pretty good.  It was missing a lot of things from the book and some things were changed around, but overall, it was made well.

After dinner, I talked with Nadia for about an hour about school and about her daughter who is in Canada for her exchange year and then I went to my room to get ready for bed.  I've given up on trying to get to bed early.  It never happens.  Last night, I went to bed after 11 yet again and I can already tell that it will be the same, if not later tonight.  I guess it's a good thing I can function on little sleep.

Ciao!
