Bingo for the Less Attentive Chem Students

(Egypt, man. Eeeeeeeeegypt. [Haha, our Global Studies teacher was flipping out today. It's all pretty cool, right? Right.])

Progress has  been made today at our school.
Momo, Lynda, and I are all in the same Chemistry class. Momo and Lynda today have devised a way to get us through another entire semester of Chemistry with our, er, endearing teacher.* For this I am very thankful ^_^

As with most all teachers, she has her little phrases that she says often. (Including [but certainly not limited to!]: "EVERYBODY SITDOWN," "signifigant fig-urs," "GOOGLE!/JUST GOOGLE IT! :D" and "vaaal-yoom [i.e. 'volume'].") And we have, being the more nerdy type of student that doesn't have to hang on quite every single word to get a nice 98% on the test, begun to see the amount we are actively and legitimately listening in class has, er, declined.

But never fear, for we have compiled a nice list of our teacher's most often used phrases (our names are on the list, too) and have constructed a few different Bingo boards to keep up nice and attentive during the almost-hour. We play by usual Bingo rules. We're allowed to suggest to her topics of conversation (e.g. Momo: "What's that search engine you like so much... it, like, starts with a G and sounds like-" Endearing Teacher: "GOOGLE! Just Google it, man! You know." Momo: *victory!*),[jsyk, I actually asked, "what's your favorite website?"] but we can't explicitly ask her to say a certain word/phrase(/do a particular action, should we add common actions later on). This defo makes us pay attention at least a little more,  yay. And because we have our names on each of our own respective boards, this
little game encourages us to raise our hand a bit more often. And maybe to even (gasp) ask questions.**

So yeah. Cool beans.

In other news, giant crazy mega Latin Convention is in two weeks.
Zomg. Be ready for me, Momo, and Virgil to be mentally-mentally-mentally-crazy-holyyyy-snap-DUDE-CONVENTION wired up like heck.

With all due respect,
House

P.S. Momo is my favorite. <3


Also, this coming week, us six will be having a fun little switcharoo of posting, which I've tagged as "parody week." More information to come on Sunday-ish. Or tomorrow, depending on if Virgil fills y'all in or not.


P.S. Ooooh and because I won't technically be posting as myself this week, happy Valentine's Day! [I love pink :) ] <3 <3 <3

*I actually went in after school today for legitimate help with legitimate questions. She's not that bad one-on-one without a huge classroom of annoying as heck little chilluns attacking each other in it.

**{These might range from "What's that search engine you like so much" all the way to "I don't remember how to pronounce ____"... or even stretching all the way to actual questions. Maybe.}
