Internet for Dummies, Wednesday 11/22, 3rd Period

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

Abby was dressed as a pilgrim. A goth pilgrim, but it was still obvious. A table in the room was covered with snacks and the plasma screen was full of dancing turkeys.

"Happy Thanksgiving everybody!" Abby said as the students entered the room. "If you're not from around here, Happy Thanksgiving anyway! Since you're in America you might as well just celebrate our holidays, especially if we give you two days off of school."

"In honor of the holiday we're scrapping the class and just playing online games. I found a few sites that have games, but it's totally cool if you want to find your own place." She pointed over to the table. "I brought snacks too! I've got everything holiday related that you could pick up from a convenience store. Turkey burritos, hashbrowns, cranberry-flavored suckers and tons more."

"Just a heads up for next week? We're going to be doing online dating, so be thinking about your personal profiles.

World Religions, Wednesday, 2nd Period [11/22]

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

One might wonder why the religion teacher has a busted lip and what looks to be the beginning of a black eye. From the forbidding look on said religion teacher's face, one might want to keep one's questions to oneself on that particular matter.

Jesse is awake. He has no coffee. He doesn't have his feet propped on his desk, and there are no handouts to go with today's class.

Instead he watches the class file in, and stands up when everyone is settled in.

( Cut because even a classroom can't keep Jesse from cursing a little )

Astronomy 101: Moons and Planets - Class 11

[stargazer-ellie.livejournal.com]

Upon arriving for Astronomy 101, students would find a note on the door:

"Class cancelled to give you an early start on the holiday.

Have a great break!

- Ellie"



[ooc: Sorry, things is insane today at work and I don't have the time to write up the class.]

American Political Campaigning [Wednesday, November 22, 1st Period]

[fandom-sub.livejournal.com]

As the students filed into the classroom, they would notice their stick-thin, blonde teacher standing at the front of the class. She wore high heels and a blue power suit, with a perfect hair style.

She may have been anatomically impossible, but her brain was in the right place. She jarringly raised her hand and waved. "Hi!" she greeted cheerfully. "I'm Barbie. You may remember me from my Presidential campaigns.

"I'm here to talk to you since Professor Lyman had a campaign to run." Her head seemed to tilt awkwardly every time she paused. "Today we're looking at commercials. Commercials are super!"

She played several examples.

"Why do you think these work? What are they trying to tell the voters about the candidate? Their opponent? How to they make you feel?"

US Government [Wednesday, November 22, 4th Period]

[fandom-sub.livejournal.com]

The classroom was empty at the beginning of period 4, but the US Government class had instructions to come in and sit down anyway. A TV was set up at the front of the class and had a label saying 'play me'.

When the TV flickered on, there was a smiling actor on the screen. "Hi! I'm Troy McClure. You may remember me from such educational videos as Adjusting Your Self-O-Stat and Fuzzy Bunny's Guide to You-Know-What.

I'm here with you today to talk about the United States Supreme Court. These are the people who decide if the bills that are passed are Constitutional. And boy, do they do more than wear those cool robes." He winked, then proceeded to lecture about SCOTUS (which wasn't a dirty acronym).

"You may remember such landmark court cases as Marbury v. Madison, McCulloch v. Maryland and The United States v. Homer J. Simpson." He went on describe Dred Scott and Plessy v. Ferguson before covering Brown v. Board of Education, Gideon v. Wainwright, Miranda v. Arizona, Roe v. Wade, Nixon v. US, and ended with Bush v. Gore.

"Now, young Americans or lesser nationals learning about the great nation of the United States, here's your discussion question: The only way to get rid of a member of the Supreme Court is either through retirement or the icy hand of death. Why do you think the Founders decided that was important for the federal judiciary? Do you think they would've reconsidered given that we live much longer now?

This is Troy McClure wishing you good luck, patriots."

Intro to Magic, 5th Period (11/22/06)

[romanywitch]

"Okay, we were going to be talking about auras today, but it's the day before Thanksgiving. And the player sucks and left her flash drive with the pre-written class on it at home. So I don't know about you guys, but my brain? Kinda stuck on the whole turkey and stuffing and pie thing coming up tomorrow. Here are your options: You can take this as a free question and answer period, a study period, or we can talk about what we're thankful for. Or if there's anyone here that doesn't so much celebrate Thanksgiving, tell us what your favorite holiday is, and how you celebrate it."

OOC: No, seriously, I'm a dork. Auras are now on the schedule for next week. Wait for the OCD, please! Time to play.

Hunting 101 -- Class 11 (Wednesday period 7)

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

When the students came in, they found a handout beside the sign-in sheet. Also there were a number of books on various myths and legends and fairy tales and oral traditions piled on a desk near the front of the room.

John waited until everyone was seated then began. ( ''Since this is the last class before Thanksgiving break, I'm going to keep it short today.'' )

[ooc: Sorry for the lateness. My brain just wasn't in a hunting class sorta place today. Wait for OCD is up!]

Thanksgiving- The cafeteria- Thursday morning till 4 pm FHT

[fates_jaye]

The cafeteria's not exactly decked out, but there are streamers and stuff, and festve tablecloths. That's something. Jaye tried to arrange the tables into one big long table, but that didn't work so well, so it's kind of arranged in a three-sided square shape. A C shape. Whatever.

The kitchen is ready for preparation and cooking, and Jaye hopes everyone keeps it clean because she really doesn't want to clean up.

Outside the cafeteria, in the hall (off to the side where no one will have to step over anyone else), the TV is set up, having been handwavily wingardium leviosaed down from the second floor common room. Chairs have been set up, and cushions have been stolen from various places for people to lounge on. There are also little tables set up with bowls of chips and dip and popcorn and stuff. Enjoy your football.

Welcome to Fandom High Thanksgiving.

[OPEN TO ALL. There will be two posts for this. Both will go up tonight for SP into Friday or so.
Wait for OCD. Play on!]

Thanksgiving- The cafeteria- Thursday, 4 pm onwards

[fates_jaye]

Once the food is cooked, it's time to set it out, and start yelling at people to get their butts down to dinner.

There's a full spread, complete with all the traditional Thanksgiving stuff. Turkey, sides, and all the fun dessert stuff will be brought out later. There's a cooler full of drinks (non-alcoholic, as hi, Jaye did invite the principal) and everything should be good. And if it isn't... eh. Deal.


[If you brought something specific, feel free to ping in the OCD thread so people know. Otherwise, I think foodmodding is on.
OCD is coming. OCD is up.]
