So yesterday was our Quiz Bowl competition (the one that will be on TV!)We ended up with Mr. Morton as our champarone which was worrysome but ended up great! Bryan was sick so Tyler got to be on the team! That was disapointing but I suppose there is always next year to be on the team. Plus, I loved the experience I got. On the car ride, Tyler, Andrew, and I played a bunch of UNO. We also quized each other quite a bit. Then, when we arrived we went to the assigned waiting area and played more UNO. Then after exaplining to the lady how to say my name, it was time to film the alternates spot. She pronounced it Stethman but it sounded closer than most get it so I let it go. Then I got to stand in the little editing room with the other alternates during the competition.
The first team's alternates were cocky and kinda rude. They Kept saying how they were the chemistry ones of their group and no one in the game actually knew much chemistry. There were 3 of them for that team. They crowded around the window so that is when I settled for watching on the editing screen with the four different views. This ended up being better because I was freaking out. I would silently cheer every time my team got one right, Cringe when the alternates said something stupid (which was often) and just freaked in general when my team missed a question that I knew the answer to... (Nancy Drew is from what town? was one)
The second team was very loud (the team and the alternates) And stupid. When my team guessed Shakespeare on a poetry question the girl alternate turned to the other and asked "Shakespeare wrote poetry?" then they decided the only way our team won is because Preston and Andrew have photographic memories (Preston and Andrew got a good laugh when I told them about that (they don't have photographic memories by the way))
We went to lunch at the Mall. Thats when I read Raven's first attempt at a monologue for her audition for the Spring Play... I was proud of it being from Buffy but it was so inappropriate I made her change it. Then we played more UNO on the ride home. We got back about 10 min after 8th period started so Mr. Morton let us decided if we went to class or not. Tyler and I went to Hastings instead of 8th period. Everyone else (Preston, Adam, and Andrew) went to class... (Nerds! haha) Then Right when school got out I went back to my car and drove to get my mom from work (passing Andrew on the way... and Brooke...) I waited about an hour for my mom while singing in the car. (took me a while to remember the window was open) then I went home and watched Rizzoli and Isles while doing homework. It was weird... I don't think Iv'e ever done homework at home...
Well that was yesterday!
Today has been relatively uneventful.
