Day 51. Theatre

As Moses wandered in the desert, I too wandered. How fitting that my classroom was the Egypt I was expelled from and the Auditorium the Land of Milk and Honey. (Actually just milk. I saw a few empty containers.) We left the 900's, parted the sea of freshman, and re-settled in the Auditorium as Biblical Studies took over my room for testing. And it was good.

When the class arrived at the theater, they immediately began complaining about having "seats upgraded" and "this isn't luxury! This is the Plebian section!" And so we sulked and were glad we had seats at all and were not just general admission.

Seeing the stage has given me grand ideas. I'm thinking of having my AP Government class create a work of art. A musical. I want it to be a cross of "Hamilton" but performed like "Cats". I am contacting the school budget keeper so that I can order enough leotards for all of us!

I enjoyed bonding with my students, whom quite frankly I've never really seen as human before, just diligent little homework machines. Now I know that some of them actually have almost human emotions! Fascinating.

I almost regret how much the next test will probably distress them. Almost.

Our play is going to be amazing! I'm working on titles. So far I've narrowed it down to "Litter Box of Democracy" or "Freedom is my Catnip!"
