Cross stitch and band story

I'm starting a cross stitch project. It's of a cat hanging onto a rope in mid-air and underneath the cat it says " Hang in there." Yesterday in band this guy was annoying this girl and she asked " Mr. W., can I whack him." and Mr.W. said " I don't condone violence, I find that hurtful words go much deeper and last a lot longer." It was soo funny because it was just a joke and he was smiling too which made it even better.

school

Yesterday, I had an essay due for social. The topic that I wrote on "Should nations have multi-party systems?" I said no, not because that's what I believe but because I had 3 arguments for it. My class schedule is pretty boring, I have the same thing every day, no variations whatsoever. 1st block- Spare, 2nd- English, Lunch, 3rd- Band, and 4th- Social. Band is, by far, my fav. subject, why I don't know because Mr. Weisenburger burns me all the time, it's actually quite funny. With him, you never quite know if he likes or doesn't like you. Oh, and before I forget, I have a solo in "In Yonder Valley" in "Simple Gifts." And it's not a flute solo either. It's only like 6 bars, but I'll take what I can get, so I'm not complaining. It's the first solo that I've had,so I'm excited.
