I think every once and awhile I'll post over here, just to switch things up a bit :)
I copied this from my own blog at livejournal, Rhiannon also copied it from me xD
I was telling Jamie about this, so its just copied and pasted from when we had the convo, so theres some grammar/spelling issues..but the story is still there..might make 0 sense but meh :) looking at it now, i realize how horrible i type and such online o.o i should work on that but eh xD
miss c my chem teacher, shes about my dads age, has this gr9 class, but its full of special ed kids and hooligans and the like.. so her uncle passed away and she had to go to cali for the funeral and while she was there she went to churchand the minister was holding up a dime and talking to the kids about how a dime means nothing to us , but for someone that dime means a meal for a dayand he was encouraging the kids to bring the dimes in or whateverso miss c told her period one class about it (the gr9s)and they started to bring in dimes*now remember it has to be a dime that they bring in, the point is it has to be like, a dime you pick up off the street (even though you can ask people to donate it or whatever) but the dime represents the actual mealso her period one class and the other science class got right into this and theyre having a competition(at the end of the year shes gonna write a huge cheque to one of the places that feed third world kids)so she got my class involved in it too, and was telling us about it cause she wasnt in a good mood and she always tells us whats wrong xDi guess this morning they were like, 30 dimes behind the other classnow it being a slack friday, it was a dress down day, shes like "well lets just get a few of us out in the halls, and ask whoever we see"so a few teachers gave her loonies to get changed later or whatever so she goes down to the caf to get them changed (now , keeping in mind the caf ladies suck ass, and that the ones at my old school probably wouldve opened up the till right away and given all the fucking dimes they had, screw paying them back, its for a good cause)and the caf lady wasnt too impressed and shes like "well come back after lunch or whatever and ill give you change cause i need this change for lunch"and miss c was like, you know that was fair or whatever , i totally understood thatso she went to the office, to see if they had change (the office people rock) and they were digging through their purses and whatever, theres this jar that teachers can put money in and instead of having to go and buy stamps they just stamp it with the school thing..so they were going through that trying to make her changeso, the caf lady walks in(told you this was long xD)and shes like"this is so dumb what youre doing, you should be helping feed the kids here in the school (note that all the teachers contribute to this fund that helps feed the kids who need help or whatever if they dont have a lunch) " and she kept telling her about how dumb it was and how miss c is teaching the kids to beg for money and whatever (but shes not, its just like going up to someone and saying, do you have a dime? tyler and i like, shook out our lunch table today and they were all for it)and so like, the whole office was in shockand this lady kept going on about how stupid it was and miss c got really really mad and just left i guess, but she was super upset and mad about it..i mean you can have your opinions or whatever, but this lady just gave it to her..so miss c's like, "i told my class if they were buying lunch to ask for their change in dimes" and she was like, encouraging us to (we all joke around in that class and love her xD) and i said id go buy like, a pop and pay with a 20 and ask for my change in dimeswhich i might do, but with a 5 or something and if the caf lady says one word ill yell at her out cause miss c couldnt say anything, but i sure as hell could because the principal loves the idea and now im done
