Yo MAO.

At the end of Hunter's presentation.. well.. near the end, she had Chairman Mao in her hell circle. T.T However, it was a really really nice powerpoint. I said "nooo...." and the whole class laughed. That was yesterday.
Today was the Mini Mu, and my gosh did I do the most random things. Erica and Sarah took almost all of my pictures, and I'm really glad they used my camera because now I have a bunch of the pictures that were used in the powerpoint by Mr. Goldstein, since Freed has the same camera. They used his cord on my camera, and it was wondrous.
In the beginning, I walked around, helping out with little tasks, eventually staying in Mrs. Chan's room, where all the proctors congregated, and Kavita and Freed spoke to them about their jobs. I took out a cafeteria bench with Candace so the mothers could set it up for lunch. After the proctors had gone, there was a lot of trouble in 8200. We felt really bad for Yige, the hall monitor there, because there were so many problems that he was overwhelmed trying to fix things. Overwhelmed because there was just that much; he was doing a really good job. When I went to visit him, most of the commotion had dissolved, and I ended up just helping Diana and Linda with two of the many elementary schoolers who were raising their hands to ask questions about the test. Apparently, one little boy didn't know what to do with the scantron. As I walked away from Yige to go out the door, he said, "Hey, do you like _______?" I said, "Why?" and he said something along the lines of "So you do!" Yeah, great reminder of something horrid as I walked down the stairs, trying to push it out of my mind. So, as things settled down, Carolyn and I went to the courtyard with Sarah and Erica, where the kids came and did some disputing after the first session. I left Carolyn to go back to Freed's, walked to the auditorium and back with Erica in lost search for a piano that I might be able to use for a few minutes, came back, and helped Logan and Marshall with scanning. Overall, scanning was quite smooth, but there were a few solvable problems here and there. The good part is that the program worked, which it hadn't yesterday before about 5:20pm. I stayed around for the awards ceremony until the powerpoint started.
The recital went smoothly for me, although I did make a lot of little mistakes. It seemed to be good to the other people who were there, so I'm not too regretful about it for once. Ah, much better than last year when I played a really short and boring and weird thing by Scarlatti. Chopin is so much better.
I've got about 157 pictures at which to look and possibly upload and I love that because pictures... Well, I'm not going to rant about pictures. Or put up the Christmas tree this year.
