AYNO, TECHNOLOGY.

Things at school do not get any easier. It would appear that certain teachers like to give tests and timed essays on days with shorter schedules. Due to today's Winter Sports Rally, all classes were about ten minutes shorter. But knowing that next week is the last week of school for the year (2008, I mean) my teachers have decided to spring out the tests now.

But let me tell you about our rally. As every rally, it has a theme. But this time the theme was somewhat disgusting: Fast Food. Not to say that I've never eaten fast food, or that I hate it, but fast food is bad. Every once in a while might be acceptable, but otherwise, you might want to have your cholesterol and blood sugar tested. Every class [year: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012] had it's own restaurant to expand on the theme. There was Mcdonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, Carl's Jr. and In-N-Out. The school is practically telling these kids where they should be eating. Later, there was a Class Competition Game. This game involved four Happy Meals from Mcdonald's and the participants were racing to see who would finish the meal the fastest. I'm not someone who eats fast food much, and that game was one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen. I bet that guy who eats hotdogs has more finesse and would probably think twice before eating a greasy patty.

Well after school today, I had to work on a film group project. Us four girls make up The English Kids and although we do get into some arguments (I think the Silent types are the worst), are always distracted and just are too busy to meet up, we always get the work done. In the making of this film project we used a DVD Camcorder thingymabobber. My dad had been telling me what an amazing tool it is. And after days of recording our video my friend and I found that it is very difficult to switch those files onto another cd, or even a memory stick. I am pissed because I had just wanted the video recorder that records onto a memory stick, but noooo. Freaking technology is inconsistent. But I guess parents are too. And teachers. And school.

And to quote the character I play in our video; "This sucks, and you know it."
