half days

Well, half days at my school are totally blow off classes. It's pretty fun yet kind of pointless at the same time. We don't have any electives, but usually there is something that the teachers have planned like the talent show or the spelling bee. So, I had math first. Our math teacher thought that it would be fun to tell us a story, of course it was a math related story that all of us had heard 10 times or so. Then, I had social studies, we did absolutely nothing. I enjoyed this because I got to read. Next we had the spelling bee, it was pretty interesting. I AM SO GLAD YOU WON SINDHU!!! After this I had another class that we were read another story to, this one was more interesting though. Then I had my favorite class, language arts. I was very happily surprised that we did actually work during this class, not hard work, but it was fun. Then, I had science last, we did a cookie experiment. We had to tell which cookie tasted better, there was one with sugar, and one with splenda. It was so easy to tell just by looking at them, you did not need to taste them. One looked all perfect and round, and the other was all lumpy and unappetizing. Neither of them tasted very good though, they were made by our foods class, no offense guys, I am in that class too. This was the half day in the life of an eighth grader.
