Before school:
I woke up at around 5:45 to my dog whining because of the thunderstorm. I checked the weather and found out my county/ area was under a flash flood severe weather alert. I keep checking the school website until 6:15 to see if they were going to do a two hour delay or cancel but they never did. I left the house at 6:45 to pick up my two friends. Some parts of the road were flooded and I hydroplaned a couple times. There was one section in the road that we debated if we should drive through but it was the only road to take if we wanted to get to school on time. I was honestly worried about water getting in my engine, the water was up to at least my knees. Thankfully we did to school safely and got a decent parking spot.

Homeroom:
We did absolutely nothing so I just watched YouTube and read.

Period 1:
We reviewed the different gestures for the terms and I totally aced them, well, besides I forgot that we covered gestures. We did a geology puzzle, it was one of those graphs that you use logic to determine the answer. Like this one.

Then we quickly looked over the syllabus and then did a short review on parabolas, which involves a new gesture in the warmup.

Period 2:
We worked on a worksheet so the teacher could get to know us and then we played a game to learn each other names. We had to go down the line and say everyone before us and then ourselves. It was our name and then a food that starts with the same letter. I was near the end of the line so I had to remember about 11 names and their corresponding food and then name a food that starts with K for myself. I am terrible at names and being put on the spot made me stutter quite a bit. We had some free time afterwards and I was able to write about a page worth for a new story I'm thinking about. 

Period 3:
We ended up moving to A lunch and I wasn't able to sit in the library since it's still closed so I sat on the benches just outside the cafeteria. On the bright side, my favorite middle school teacher from this state has returned to the school and we hugged and talked a bit.

Back in class, we had to write a case study about ourselves in the third person using an alias. Once everyone was done writing, the teacher read them aloud to the class and we had to guess who wrote what. I mentioned my goal for the year was to finish another book/ story and everyone had to start asking me questions about it. I'm usually happy to talk about what I'm working on but also at the same time I don't know these people and I don't want them to think I'm weird with the genre of books I like. The teacher asked me if I was going to publish and I'm fine with random people reading my work since I don't know them in person so I just said no instead of telling her i post them online. 

Our next activity in the class was sorting different foods into three categories: soup, salad, or sandwich. It was a group activity meant to spark debates but my group pretty much agreed on everything. A popsicle is obviously a soup, a pizza is a salad, cake is a sandwich, and ravioli is a also a sandwich

Period 4:
We watched more training videos and took 3 tests, I had to retake the one on slip, trip, and fall risks. We also talked about how tomorrow we'll be able to leave school early for a test drive to the locations we are going to volunteer at.

I'm trying to see if I'm able to work tomorrow but my manager hasn't responded yet, so we'll see. I have no homework and I kind of doubt I will have homework this semester, besides maybe in English
