So today was our Christmas Assembly. It was fun, but I was sitting at the end of a bleacher, and I have no depth perception, vertigo, what have you, so I was freaking out a bit, not wanting to fall off. Also, I bought a raffle ticket, and may I please say that teachers should not be allowed to buy them if it's for STUDENTS MOSTLY. Do you know why? Because based on my first hand experience, it doesn't matter how many tickets a kid buys, a teacher will always win at least one thing, regardless of the student to teacher ratio. Seriously, there was even this one teacher who won TWICE, but he declined the second thing he won, which was nice of him. Point is though, is that I didn't win diddly-squat. And then there were a few contests, one being a Christmas song singing contest, WHICH I WOULD HAVE ENTERED IF I KNEW WHAT THE HELL WAS GOING ON! But it was so cute, because they had this cute little niner boy singing either, "Where are you Christmas," or "Last Christmas, I Gave You My Heart", and it was so funny, because he was so flustered, and everybody was clapping along to the beat. But now I love my buddy Will a million times more, because they made him sing, "Blue Christmas" and he broke out into a bass voice, and it was so awesome, because it's Will, and he can pull that kind of shit off. So he won.

And also, here's the good part for where there was much celebrating; Spartan Youth Radio won $20,000 from Best Buy for this video [link] which is great, because we're literally broadcasting out of a closet. The Cake part of it came from the fact that I've submitted The Strawberry King to be turned into a radio show, and I plan to write up some more where the ending turns out badly for one person, but nobody really cares because they're laughing too hard. I also want to interview David Bowie, but I need to track down his manager. And not faint. Also, we had our Christmas Party today, which had it's moments, because we were talking about concerts, and I was like, "I'd like to see David Bowie in concert," and Kali was like, "DAVID BOWIE? I SAW A MOVIE OF HIS ONCE AND ALL HE DID WAS SWING HIS JUNK AROUND!" "Labyrinth?" "THAT'S THE ONE! AND -" and as she's ranting she's moving all around the place, and it was pretty entertaining.

Speaking of which, I am extrememly pissed, because I missed the Reach 4 the Top competition last week, AND THERE WAS A DAVID BOWIE QUESTION, AND I KNEW THE ANSWER!! It was "Rebel, Rebel." I was not happy there. I was like, "HAVE I TAUGHT YOU NOTHING?!"

And that's pretty much it.
