English I Honors students skipped some lessons — killed the sacred metrical cow — and moved ahead to the Bard. Billy. Shakespeare.

We finished by getting ready for the more difficult sonnet 29 by creating some insane sentences:

• After the championship basketball game, where I scored one point and got ejected for throwing the ball at the ref because he said I had no buckets, I ate some of the delicious hot cheese and pepperoni pizza and grapes from my fridge and cheetos on Thursday night with my best friends, while watching Thursday night football when the Steelers won against all odds because everyone realizes how horrible they are.
• Today my weird and strange friend, Christopher Bernard Smith, and I ate some really good cold slices of greasy, chewy barbeque chicken pot pie pizza with garlic sauce and blueberry poptarts blended up from Papa John’s after I got home from a long and tiring day at school at Hughes academy of science and technology in Greenville, south Carolina, and it was so delicious that I’m considering comparing it to a summer’s day because today at school we dabbed viciously in Mr. Scott’s class after we finished a test about Shakespeare’s 18th sonnet that was extremely difficult.

English 8 students finished the novel Nightjohn and will be preparing for a test later this week.

Homework

• English 8: prepare for the three-part test on stems, reading skills, and Nightjohn.
• English I Honors: continue working on the short story project.
