Of procrastination, Doctuh Z, and adventures in Spanish television.
Just thought you all needed to know that.
I reallyreallyreally should not be on here AT ALL. I was supposed to watch Masterpiece Theater's Dr. Zhivago for Herlihy over break, and since it's, y'know, Saturday, I figured I'd better get going. And yet I'm sitting here. I even said I'd allow myself to play The Sims 2 while watching (multitasking FTW), but noooo. I'm still here on the desktop. Writing about things that have happened over Teh February Break (which is not anything exciting, of course).
So earlier this week Jenny and I were fooling around on cable, channelsurfing (I never channelsurf; it just seems like a big waste of time- but whatever), and we discovered not one, not two, but three Spanish channels. It was a marvelous find, because telenovelas are the epitome of awesome. We spent over half an hour (I know, I know- "Hannah, why didn't you do your homework then, instead of complaining about it now?"), and we were quite scandalized when we translated one of the program descriptions as, “An urban tragic comedy filled with negro humor”. Fortunately, we then remembered that ‘negro’ means 'black' in Spanish, and therefore the thing was just trying to say that it was filled with dark humor. Still, it was pretty touchy for a moment there.
Oh, and dear Bus Boyz, I have to say, you could probably get into quite a bit of trouble if someone important discovered that you have a forum thread entitled ‘Melinda Salazar’s Home Location’ on your forum. Especially because it seems to be your little headquarters for accumulating as much personal information as possible in order to get her fired. Seriously, she's on a sabbatical. LET. IT. GO. She’s a crappy teacher who needs to learn that her opinion =/= fact, but still, that’s just pathetic.
Then again, I’m the one checking their forum, so…
Other random statements:
THIS is the best thing ever. I’m not even going to say don’t deny, because there is no room for denial.
I have some new ICONNNNNNS that I need to add to my custom moods thing, stat. Yey.
Auf wiedersehen.

I've done nothing productive today so far, except send off a huge email to the rest of my group about the bio presentation. Which is next week, and we've done nothing so far except to research. And let's not mention my other project, my lab report, and the two tests that are next week.
Yep. Slacking is a bad idea.
...we discovered not one, not two, but three Spanish channels.
No Spanish channels here, and I only know of one French channel off the top of my head. There might be another one...

Well, at least you aren't stalking a teacher... I mean, she may be bad, but bad enough that people are obsessed with stalking her to get her fired?
And I thought it was bad at my school where all the students hated this one sub (who's here for a couple of weeks) and one student had no respect and didn't listen to her at all, and when he was sent to the office, he had to put a countdown on the board for the days the regular teacher came back, and ignored the teacher when she told him to drop the chalk and go to the office... five times. And then the rest of the class had to lie through their teeth and comfort the teacher, who was on the verge of tears.
THIS is the best thing ever. I’m not even going to say don’t deny, because there is no room for denial.
Um... what were they thinking?

because she had no soul, but... let's just say it wasn't pretty. It was hard to feel bad for her, though, because she totally egged them on, and would actually get pretty nasty at times.Now we have a replacement teacher who's going to be with us for the rest of the year... and so many people hate her on principle, because they loved our old teacher. Now her I feel bad for.
Um... what were they thinking?
I have no idea, but it made me laugh. XD
