Homecoming Game and Dance and teachers who can't draw.

As I already mentioned, Friday was Homecoming. We played at Ed White against P.K. Younge (I think that's how it's spelled) and won 24-20. At halftime they announced the members of Homecoming Court and we found out that my friend Annie was chosen to be Homecoming Queen. I'm so happy for her. Then, later that night was the Homecoming Dance. It was awesome. Everyone looked nice. Paul and David were dressed up in t-shirts and shorts (we aren't really required to dress up for the dance, though most people do) although Paul was wearing a rather stylish gray scarf....the excuse he gave me was something about famous people wearing scarves...or something like that.

Anyway, Everyone who has had Mrs. Dixon as a teacher knows that she's not the world's best drawer, but she still draws pictures when she needs to illustrate a point she's trying to make. Today we were starting to take notes on stuff to do with planetary orbits and she drew an ellipse (type of orbit planets have) with a huge dot to represent the sun as one focal point and another much smaller dot as the other and a medium sized dot on the ellipse to represent a planet in orbit and a "V" shape to connect the two foci and everyone said it looked like bird with one massively dilated eye and a musket ball in its head.It looked something like this:

That's just a crude replica I made using Paint, but you get the idea. Everyone makes fun of her drawings, though she doesn't take it personally because she knows we're not trying to hurt her feelings.
