All I see today are people in winter boots and campflauge. It's about fifty/sixty degrees outside. Yesterday, when it was even warmer outside, people were wearing heavy winter jackets. My dad said it was because of the weather change, but I wore a short sleeve shirt yesterday and I was completely fine. I guess I'm just strange, well I know I'm strange. I'm told that I am repeatedly. But, yeah, it's fine. Anyway:


1) I can sing the periodic table of elements. It's a song by Tom Lehrer. I memorized it this past summer when I decided I should do something useful with my time. Yesterday, I was at the hospital, visiting a family, and my Grandmother made me sing it to the nurses. They were surprised.


2) I have never watched any Disney movie. I didn't watch them as a child, and I have them all now, I just wouldn't prefer to watch them now. They slightly bore me. I mean it's fine if someone else likes them, I just don't understand why people still talk about princesses and talking mermaids. The Lion King might be acceptable if people actually read Hamlet first.


3) In PE today, we had a free day. Sometimes I bring my iPod, like I did today. One of my friends (the pagan/athiest/agnostic one) and I listened to Beatles songs all class long. We sang 'All You Need is Love' out loud. I was shocked at all the unkind looks we were being given. Is it so bad to sing a song about love and compassion? Somebody told us to shut up with some very unkind words because the Beatles were all drunk and high and they wrote their songs while they were high. The only song I know of the Beatles that might be like that is 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,' and that is just a theory.


My friend that sings the Beatles songs with me is having a Halloween party and she invited me and two of my other friends. One of them is going to be Jaques Cousteau, another Albert Einstein, and I am going to be Marie Curie. This is going to be such an awe filled day!
