Study Hall? For three hours?

I had three straight hours of study hall today.

We have block scheduling at our school and therefore our class periods are an hour and a half long. The tenth graders were taking Geometry end of course, and my precal teacher was administering the test, so during first period my math class had a study hall. At the bell, I went to my next class which happened to be nothing other than...study hall. Great. So I sat for three hours, just reading. Now don't get me wrong, I love reading. I'm currently in the middle of Les Miserables and I'm loving it. But I'm just wondering...if I'm going to school to sit around for three hours...is there really any point in me being there? Seriously, couldn't I have just come to school at the end of second period? Oh well... Then after lunch I went to AP Language, where I was once again lucky enough to write a timed argument essay. I was so out of it and just ready to go home that I'm not even sure if I actually ever supported, refuted, or qualified Ehenreich's claim in the prompt... I think I made a claim, but I'm not sure:)

Then to band for final hour. It was okay, but we're playing a suite from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince...I really hate that piece. It's soooo corny. But Hallie and I did have a nice discussion with our director about next year's marching show. We're trying to convince him that Lion King is the way to go.

So all in all, good day? Better than the last.
