Coping with Change | Tuesday, period one
So, there was a television at the front of the room today. The teachers weren't absent or anything, it was just that some days needed to be movie days.
That, and Jono had a mild 'up too late staring at scripts like a crazy man' hangover that had been mostly fuelled by insomnia, and for once didn't have a whole lecture in him. He did, however, have a film about a little brown alien creature on blu-ray, mostly because it was the thing that fell closest to hand that seemed even remotely relevant to the class they were meant to be teaching, here.
//Rejoice. There's microwave popcorn and a case of Coke. It's a film day today.//
"I brought hummus and pita chips!" Cecil added. "There's even wheat in them!" He was never going to get over being able to eat wheat and wheat by-products. "And Jono says this is a pretty good movie, so enjoy!"
//Actually, I said it was a classic, and I'm throwing popcorn at the first person in the room who complains that it's older than they are.//
Whippersnappers.
Either way, with that, he was hitting play.
