Intro to 21st Century American Culture - Monday - Fifth Period

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

Lorelai is sitting on her desk and has The Doors blaring in the classroom.

Once everyone is seated, she says, "Good afternoon. We're still learning about music and today we're covering Classic Rock."

She gives a handwavy lecture about the subject, complete with a variety of music samples which I forgot to upload to link last night, oops.

After that, she passes out papers with information for the final projects everyone will have to complete.

"So, I realized it would be difficult to give a final exam based on this information and I decided it would be more fun to give you a project instead. The last two class periods will be devoted to each of you giving a presentation to the class about a form of pop culture when or where you're from," she explains. "If you have any questions, let me know."

Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

what it says.

Bel was enjoying the music, but keeping a low profile in class.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty listened to music but kept an even lower profile than Bel.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[demonbelthazor]

Bel noted that Marty's profile was lower than his, and thus adjusted his own profile to be even lower.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty looked over and saw that Bel's profile was now lower than his.

This would not do.

So in a non-conspicuous manner, Marty lowered his profile even more.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[demonbelthazor]

Oh, no you don't.

Bel glanced over at Marty and quite slowly and deliberately lowered his profile further. It was almost to the floor, it was so low.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty quickly lowered himself to the floor and then shot a look at Bel as if to say: "TOP THAT!"

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[demonbelthazor]

Bel raised an eyebrow, then got up and snuck out of class, heading to the blatantly modded omg empty classroom on the floor below.

Ha. Lower than you.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty frowned as Bel snuck out of class.

Then abusing his TA powers he marked Bel absent for class.

La.

Joxer listened to the music intently.

He kinda liked it.

Stark was listening to "Bohemian Rhapsody" and finding it very strange, but not in a bad way. It was too bad he didn't know you were supposed to do a little headbanging in the middle.

This is the kind of class Mac could get used to. She's happily listening to the music, maybe even swaying along, just a little bit.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

Cedric listened to the music and decided he liked the 80's selection better.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

Kaylee was content as she listened to the music. She really liked it.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke might have been listening to the music.

He might have been staring off into space reliving the swoop bike race from yesterday.

He might have been doing both, that multi-tasking fool.

It's still Monday and Zuko is still refusing to deal with music on any day but Tuesday.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[greenmagebriar.livejournal.com]

Briar wasn't sure what he thought of the music, but he was listening.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[can_be_more]

Aeryn actually doesn't hate it. And she feels really weird about that.

Re: Listen to Music/Chat Amongst Yourselves

[bookyeve.livejournal.com]

Evie enjoyed the music, but was at a loss for what to do for her project. Lord. Popular London culture...

Talk to Lorelai [11/13]

Ask a question, get an answer.

"Ms. Gilmore-Danes? Do you have a moment?"

Re: Talk to Lorelai [11/13]

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

"Sure, Briar, what's up?" Lorelai asked.

Re: Talk to Lorelai [11/13]

[greenmagebriar.livejournal.com]

"I had to go home last week, so I missed class."

Re: Talk to Lorelai [11/13]

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

"We covered 80s music last week," Lorelai explained. "I can make you a CD if you're interested in checking it out. Otherwise, no big deal."

Re: Talk to Lorelai [11/13]

[greenmagebriar.livejournal.com]

"That would be great, thanks." Briar smiled at Lorelai.

Re: Talk to Lorelai [11/13]

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

"You can handwavy cause I always forget to post office hours stop by my office and pick it up later this week," Lorelai smiled back.

OOC [11/13]

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

Sorry for the lame class. I was totally brain-dead this weekend though.

Next week, I'll give you a list of who's presenting which day. The presentations can be as little or as much as you want.
