Library, Sunday

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

Feeling somewhat lazy today, Lee grabbed himself the biggest book (with words that he could understand, of course) he could find, took his seat behind the desk, propped up his feet and started to read. After reading the first few pages of the book, Lee decided it would be a miracle if he didn't fall asleep.

So You Want to Make a TV Show- 2nd Period- Class #5

"Morning!" Dana greeted the class, looking almost chipper. "There's a paper on your desks. If you write your name on it with the name of the team that won the Super Bowl, you get free extra credit. Did anyone watch? Anyone win any money? Because I won money. Don't gamble, kids, it's wrong and immoral but damn it's fun when you win.

"Anyway," she said, smile fading just a little bit, and wasn't happy Dana a little terrifying? "Last week I sent you all on errands to show you a little bit of what the life of the production assistant is like. Today we're going to work on research. Again, it's high-pressure. People will be throwing names and dates at you and you have to come up with information on them like that. You're not expected to know everything. However, you are expected to be able to find it.

"In a situation like a sports show, you'd have archival footage to go through, too. Since we don't really have that here, we're just going to keep it simple. You have assignments. You have till the end of class to get me as much information on your subject as possible. You can go to the library, you can use the computer lab, anything else you probably don't have time for. You don't even need to write me up a report on the person, but I want to be able to kill a few trees with all the info you give me at the end of class. We're going to be very bad to the environment today. Skip a shower tomorrow, it will completely make up for it." She could say that because she didn't have any of them in a class tomorrow.
