Costumes & Mock Trials


Preparations for the Paradigm Christmas party have begun. I love making costumes (rather, impressing people with the grandness of my costumes). Let's hope that my costume is good enough to represent a bunch of middle schoolers.

Big news in school. Our Government class, which typically has nothing terribly interesting going on (our most talkative and fun class, despite Caleob sitting to my left), is having a mock trial. The class last year had one too (I spelled "too" as "two" the first time), but this year, we have a lot of outgoing overachievers involved, and a bigger class. I am the defendant who is being accused of shutting down Tyler's kidneys during a fight. Unlike last year's class, we plan to bring in photographic/video evidence against the prosecution. This shows promise.

Government class always has a lot going on. Hope you study for the final because you're going to need to do well. :)

I always study for your tests, Mrs. Williams. Your class is busy, but not murderously busy. It has balance. That's why it doesn't make it into my blogs.

By the way, you did clever work when you stuck Caleob next to me. I don't think I've said a word to him in class. Ever.

What do you mean, "for shutting down Tyler's kidneys in a fight"? And who is Tyler?
