Governments

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

Today we're going to do some in class work on your papers. By the end of class, I'd like a preliminary outline.

You may form small groups if your chosen subjects are the same or similar to compare ideas, sources, etc. I will be more than happy to sit with any group for suggestions and help.

I'd also like to announce I am considering a field trip for the class and possibly a guest speaker in the near future. It all depends on your behavior.

OOC: I slay myself. Heh.

Anakin's eyebrows went up at the mention of guest speakers. "Anyone I know?" he asked.

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

"Could be."

OOC: And DUDE did I just a wacky idea.

Anakin stopped working on his outline, which may or may not be titled "Why the Galactic Senate Doesn't Work Except For When It Does" and stared up at her.

"Uh-oh?" he ventured.


[OOC: Oooh. Share?]

Padme simply smiled.

OOC: Oh, it will be right up your alley.

Belthazor works on an exciting and compelling outline for his paper.

Really.

Okay, maybe not so exciting and compelling. But it is an outline.

Of some sort.

Beka grinned when she saw Bel. "I didn't know you were in this class. Just got much cooler. What're working on?" Her chin jerks towards his outline.

"Outline for my paper," Belthazor said. "The role of senators in the government. Real fun stuff." He rolled his eyes.

"We could have so much more fun, if only... I picked Foreign Affairs. Seemed interesting. Now regretting it." She groaned. "Lots of work."

[demonbelthazor]

"I hate writing papers," Belthazor agreed. "Would so much rather be doing other things. We'll always have subtext."

"I'd offer to help, but you have Phoebe for that," Beka teased. "What do you like to do...besides fireballs and emo? Always?

*takes out some paper and starts scribbling things based on his reading and makes several, large, prominent notes to himself that say, "CALL MISS RELENA SOON YOU GOODFORNOTHING GREASEMONKEY" and he smiles*

Beka entered the classroom with a cup of coffee for herself, and one for Padme. With cream and a little sugar, just how she liked it. With a smile of greeting, she held out the cup.

Padme smiled. "thank you. I have a tougher time in the afternoons than in the morning. I think there should be a nap time after a meal."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"I wouldn't know because my mun never feeds me. I never seem to have time for naps around here." Beka smiled. "So...coffee, nap in a cup."

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

"That's clever. I like it."

*Hamlet enters class and starts writing an outline for his presentation. It quickly disintegrates into rantings about how much he hates his uncle and gruesome doodles in the margins. He makes a mental note to soliloquize later to get rid of some of this rage. And to re-start the outline on a fresh piece of paper.*

OOC: can I just say how much I love the idea still of high school Hamlet?
