practicality

My school spawns the most interesting things, like that quote from Mrs. Dodge I posted last entry. Also heard or taken part in today:

(Working on a problem dealing with trees in math, Mr. Barys says something about how you can't have part of a tree)
Mr. Barys : ...So you either have to round it off, or truncate it.
Jon : Hahaha, truncate! That's a good one!
Class : *stares*
Jon : ...You know, like trunk? Like trees?
Class : *continues to stare*
Mr. Barys : *puts head in hands, laughs*

(Then, when Mrs. Bonneau and I were talking about something we're doing in Physics tomorrow, with these absorbant crystal thingies)

Mrs. Bonneau : They're kind of like those animal-things you give kids
Me : Yeah :D
*Me and Michelle walk off*
Michelle : What animals?
Me : You know, those foamish things you put in water and they grow? I think they've got organ-shaped ones too-
Michelle : Oh! Those things!
Me : *dies laughing*
(This is probably a lot funnier to those who know Cain, and that Michelle is our Jezebel XD;; )

Finally, there were a bunch of girls (seniors, I think, but I'm not sure) standing around talking as we go out to gym, and I hear one of them say "Yeah, they go down to the Cape and have a horrible time and bond." Which is a perfect description of Briarwood, and also kind of of her life XD;

Also, things that are fun - ghost crystals :D *will take photos, thinks they are neat-o* Things that are not fun - lower back pain >< But in a much better mood, anyway <3
