A Very Funny Day

leia131This is going to be rather longer than usual. I apologize in advance. But it is quite funny.
So... In Anthro Mr. Peterson endeavored to show us how archeological finds can be misconstrued by pretending to be a professor from Uranus who found an Earth burial site. To make a long story short, he put on a bra and claimed that it was a warrior chest plate, and that Earth men were very proud of their ability to get one off using only one hand. I have never laughed so hard in that class. (Ryan Butler also demonstrated his one handed technique in getting the warrior chest plate off Mr. Peterson.)
Then we continued the strange Macbeth movie in English. The murderers killed Banquo, and when they showed his body his head was all bloody, but they definitely had been stabbing him in the chest. WTF?
And in the banquet scene Macbeth was drinking wine, and all his guests were chanting hey hey hey, and I went chug chug chug!
OMG the witches' cauldron was a soup pot. No joke. It was like six inches across. Now that's just pathetic.
By the way, the crazy witch also played Lady Macduff, which was a pretty big change in character.
Then in physics Mr. Welch goes "Would you rather be hit by a train going .002 miles and hour or a mosquito going 200 miles an hour?" Kathryn looks at me and goes "That's one fast mosquito."
His next brilliant thing was to demonstrate how people who get shot in movies die. So he clutches his chest and goes "Forsooth, I am dead!" Which is really hysterical because when Macduff's son gets stabbed he goes "Mother I am slain!" before he dies.
Then to top it all off, at rehearsal I did what Lydia called an "absolutely spectacular" fall off the stage and hit my cheek really hard on the train platform. I also broke my jade ring. Jade is the hardest rock after diamond. It was quite a fall. I don't remember exactly what happened, but I was trying to step onto the bench and missed. Witnesses say I did a sort of twisty slow motion thing. All I know is my cheek hurts and I can't lift my right arm.
