Zebra Print Shoes...or Favorite Things, Episode III

I am so overdue for a post about some things in my life that make me grin. Once I reach 100, I'll have to reward myself.

11. Zebra Print Shoes. AND shirts, pants (though I've never actually seen that), hats, masquerade masks, headbands and purses. I have a thing for zebras. It's fairly new.

12. Being on time for Physics. Mr. Lund's classroom is set up in such a way as to invoke THE most embarrassment and shame possible when you walk in the door late. Also, he puts the chairs on top of the tables before he leaves the school, so his first period class has to take them down. When you walk in 5-10 minutes late, you have to interrupt the lecture (or quiz, heaven forbid) with the noisy, awkward mess you make as you take your chair down. Needless to say, I am far too experienced in being late for Physics. This morning, however, I was ON TIME with flying colors! I took down my chair with everyone else, and Adam gave me a thumbs-up for being so punctual.

13. Drawing or playing games with your calculator when your math teacher thinks you're working. This sounds like something a slacker would do to pass the time, and seems like a fairly boring way to kill class time. However, it is exceptionally difficult to stifle hysterical laughter in a room with one teacher and 10 students, all of whom are silent. Once your body can't hold it in and you have to go "pppffsnnkkhtt!!" You feel like a monstrous idiot, and everyone laughs at you internally, except for Sam, who laughs at you openly. It's HIS fault I'm laughing anyways. I never thought I could excrete so many endorphins in a Math classroom.

14. SQUID! What can I say about this one? Honestly, it just happened. It's pretty much a big deal.

15. Late Start Days. Glory Hallelujah, for the deep love of all that is good and holy in this world! I LOVE sleeping in!
