RJ 13.3 Read for 20-30 minutes

Well, we're finally here again. Lupe chose me, and that's good timing since tomorrow, or Thursday as this will be read, is the last day I'll be here before break, and that's because I'm going to Mexico on Friday, really early in the morning because blah blah blah I don't know why. Okay, back to the day. We correct her blog, and we start getting work to put in portfolios. Someone tells me to put them in the blog, and I'm not doing that, because why do you want to be put in the blog? What's so special about seeing your name in a blog? Other people don't care besides you. I mean, since no one else besides them knows I'm talking about them, doesn't that make them feel more special? Whatever makes you happy...  People are still doing stuff with portfolios, and I'm bored and have nothing to say. I should put stuff in my portfolio, but I'm sitting here, doing the blog. I don't really like speaking as stuff goes on that isn't important right now, since when I read this, it will sound like it's still happening, when it really isn't. Time flies doesn't it? Portfolio stuff is still going on, so I'm just going to put the work in the portfolio.

That was quick. Is that because I'm just not doing work? Why do I even bother to care? Who cares? 

Well, now we're done with portfolios, and we're told to take out our English journals. It looks like we're doing something called gift of words. We're learning about haiku in general. We're actually writing a haiku, so I'll share mine with you.

I like wasting time

Sitting down just doing stuff

Procrastination

I hope you like it. A lot more is happening from the last time I did the blog, so that gives me more to write about. Now, we're learning annotations, which is just a citation from a book, or movie. Not many quotes I can think of right now, but I'll get there. Quotes haven't always been something I pay attention to, nor want to, but I have to. Who knows, I might find them way more interesting than I think. Class ends soon, and there's not much left to say, so I guess this is goodbye, for now.
