Advanced Journalism (Wednesday, March 29, 3rd period)

"All right, ladies," Rita said. "We're going to start work on one of our big projects this semester. I understand that last semester, you did a largescale project involving an article on a fellow student, yes?"

She smiled. "Your final this term will be similar, but doubled. I want you to interview and profile a good friend. You'll be allowed to leave campus, need to take photos, everything you did last term. And then, as a contrast, you'll need to interview a person you do not know as well, and do the same. This will be expected to be a large, well-done project, which is why I'm telling you so far in advance. Questions?"

Rita grabbed her wand possibly preemptively.

"What?"

"Whoa," John says and holds up his hands. "Honest question. Due date. When's this due? Is one part due before the other?"

"They'll both be due on April 25," Rita said, still holding her wand.

"Can I do some extra credit?"

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"Possibly."

"A little side report about my time as animals?"

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"No."

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Why not? It's a valid report!"

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"It's not related to the topic."

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"That's why it's extra credit," John says. "And it's journalistic in nature. It's a human interest story."

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"Fine."

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Thank you," John says, smiling brightly. Muttering under his breath, he says, "You old maid."

And with a flick of her wand and barely a glance up, Rita turned John into a pangolin (http://english.epochtimes.com/news_images/2004-2-23-23-pangolin.jpg).

Rory offered the...thing...a Skittle.

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John is being offered food!



John does take the Skittle.

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory patted it.

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

John hates Professor Skeeter.

Rory picked up the thingy and put it on Rita's desk, and then scurried back to her seat.

Re: Discussion/Questions/Rita-annoying

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John makes a mess of Rita's desk. BIG MESS. HUGE MESS.

Rita ignored him. She could straighten things after he went away.
