Squirrels

Today in another exciting edition of Mr. Schick’s Western Civilization class, we finished going over “Rome” though I did not take notes on part of it since we would not be needing it for our test on Friday. Though, to be a bit more accurate, I think Mr. Schick said it would be more like half quiz/half test, which Nicolette called a quest (personally I like “quest” better than “tiz”). I also decided to stop putting information for the upcoming “quest” on my BLOG since we were informed that we will be unable to use our BLOGs as an aid on the “quest.” In order to try to encourage us to prepare for the “quest,” Mr. Schick told us that we could either be the squirrel that leaps across the road and up the tree and makes squirrel noises; or we can be squirrel that goes “What Punic Wars?” and gets run over. Also, Victoria mentioned that chipmunks are cute. Well, I would like to beg to disagree!!! They may be cute and cuddly on the outside, but in fact, they are horrible monsters if you have ever gone camping, since they try to take your food away from you. I have witnessed this with my own 2 eyes. On my trip to Maine this past summer, I saw one kid’s candy get broken into by those little rascals (which can be referred to as mini-bears).
