We love to watch you frolic during Field Day!! (we also hope you did well on STAAR sophomores)

So much goodness here. 

List of the best things I saw outside at Field Day today:

1. Any time any of you attempted to be "athletic". 
2. Humanities students running.
3. Coach Goff playing basketball.
4. Ms. Moreno laying tennis.
5. Roloefs sitting in the sun warming himself like a sea turtle. 
6. People hanging upside down from random equipment because... why not? 
7. Ms. Virdin repeatedly calling the same teacher the wrong name again and again. 
8. Humanities students still running. 
9. Boys with their shirt sleeves pushed up to show off their "guns". 
10. Confirmation that even though you're all in high school, everyone turns in to a 3rd grader when you're sent outside.

This pretty much captures Siddiqui's feelings about Field Day. 

Larry Springer work day tomorrow!

Come prepared my friends... come prepared. You have all class period to work. Have some goals and get to it. It is incredibly frustrating to know how busy you all are and then watch you waste quality work time. 

Cover week here at the blog rolls on...

We've got a first here at the blog... a request for our weekly soundtrack! This validates my life at a level you cannot imagine. Because of this momentous occasion, we're going to go big. We're going to do a big double whammy of covers in an all David Bowie edition!

First up, we've got two different cover versions of Bowie's classic track "The Man Who Sold the World". The first version comes to us courtesy of one of the last public performances of Nirvana before Kurt Cobain's suicide. Here is their take on the Bowier song:

Our next version is much more recent and an incredibly stirring take on the song. Here is former R.E.M. front man, Michael Stipe performing on The Tonight Show just the other day. 

And, our final Bowie cover comes to us courtesy of seminal Gothic band, Bauhaus. Here is there amazing cover of Bowie's standard "Ziggy Stardust". Feel the feelz!
