In drivers ed we watched this video and there was this one part where you could see through the front window of a car... driving... at night... when it's snowing... on a curvy road, and the deep voice goes "These are very hazardous conditions, you must excersize extreeeeeeme caution" and he said "Extreme" really funny.
Extreme.
Like my hate for Alex H.
Literally everthing about him I dislike, and I don't even remember why. The way he talks, the things he says, how he holds himself and laughs... AKDLFJS.
Also he says he doesn't like Life of Pi. Seriously, he like thinks he's so cool, we were talking about stories we were told in our youth and he's like "The tell-tale heart" and everyone's like "Oh, Alex H, you're so awesome" and it's just so annoying. He's condescending without even trying to be.
This whole thing so stupid but I just can't stop D:
Oh, and all his friends are losers, but they're not as bad as him because I'd rather be around someone who never talks than someone who talks all the time about STUPID THINGS.
Oh, and the Fountainhead was really nice up until about page 200. The whole tension between them was pretty interesting, although their first encounter was rather anticlimatic.
And then WTF HE RAPES HER WTF. Seriously, but then it's like "Oh, but that's okay cause she's a masochist" or something and I'm like, wow, really?
I kind of like Keating better, even though he's supposed to be the kind of person people aspire NOT to be.
And that whole part that was like "She found a dark satisfaction in thinking about the pain he could inflict with those granite-breaking hands" was just really awkward to read... I almost stopped reading the book from the sheer AAAAAAAA of it.
In government we were talking about the Civil War (even though we were supposed to be talking about banks) and Beau asks us about states in the Confederacy and then it like hit me like a truck. ANDERSONVILLE, by MacKinlay Kantor! I started reading that book this summer when we were out east and then I just kind of stopped when school started.
My goal over spring break is to both finish reading it and to re-read it.
Haha jeez I spent like half the summer reading it, how could I forget about it?
I NEED TO FINISH THE BOOK, I'M 573 PAGES IN! That's a lot.
We also talked about what kind of granola bar Hitler would be. It was kind of weird.
Beau says "Hitler was a nutty guy," and then someone makes a reference to a granola bar.
So Hitler apparently started as a cliff bar, and then progressed to those gross bars without any chocolate.
:D
