5/3/12

It is my fourth day at school and fifth day of being in Philadephlia. School was really fun today because I only had three classes and the rest were free periods. Except one the school had a Meeting. A Meeting is where the whole school sits together in silence for about 45 minutes straight. Somebody can stand up and say a few words that are thought provoking. Three people stood up today, one said how we should keep calm and move on. Another person said how it is nice that we do little nice things for one another. The last person said how you should not "judge a book by its cover." For me, staying quiet for 45 minutes was a huge challenge that I am surprised I accomplished. The meeting is almost like during convocation when we someone would stand up and say a few words.Further, I ate a Snickers; it was rather delightful. I enjoyed that Snickers. Lastly, I came back to house, lied down, did some work, and watched the playoff games.
