skrobertsOne of my teachers kept me after class on Monday to tell me that I intrigued him. He said that at the start of the semester, I didn't seem to be getting anything out of the class and kind of seemed to be going through the motions. But then he gave us essay assignments. Through my writing, he realized that my brain doesn't work quite like everyone else's. I have strong opinions and a distinct personality, but with being so shy, most people don't take the time to figure that out about me. He asked a bit about my parents and where I'm from, I guess trying to deduce some of the details about my background that make me who I am. I really don't know what to say other than I got my brain from my mom. (Sometimes it seems like we share one, but that's cool. *pets brain*) Anyway, it was refreshing that a teacher would take time to tell me that. Also, he told me that he was the head of the yearbook committee and that there was going to be a video yearbook this year in addition to the traditional one. Having talked a bit a few weeks before about my Video Production class and what I'd like to do when I grow up *g*, he asked if I would be interested in being a part of it. I said yes, though I wanted to yell out, "Let me at it!" I love that sort of stuff. I'll go to a few meetings to see what it's looking like before I commit, but it would look nice on a résumé. :D

NCIS: "Call of Silence" -- Wow, that was a great episode. I mean, I was kept intrigued the whole 45 minutes. First off, I loved Tony. He's been like an irritating child this season so far, but the plot of this ep gave us a chance to see that he is an adult and that he knows when to show due respect. Thank you, writers, I really wanted that. :) I like this ep a lot.

Title: Basting
Prompt: "mettle"
My mettle was being tested.
It was not an easy task.
This thing we call Thanksgiving.
Why so much fuss, I ask?
There's the turkey to prepare.
That plump, large bird.
It's nothing but a lot of trouble.
You mark my word.
I glaze it, I stuff it.
I put it in the oven to bake.
Yet it never comes out quite right.
My mettle it threatens to break.
But I won't let it beat me.
Because the appetite will be oh, so cloyed.
Though having to buy larger pants when the feast is done?
I think, "Oy... oy... oy..."
