Ah...we await Beastie's return from her dark, chilly lair, which is located in the murky gloom of a faraway swamp in a kingdom she rules herself, with a gloved claw upon her scepter of mouse-skulls...
And the lair itself has a carpet of fine Persian make, with intricate swirling patterns, bright and mysterious, with monkey traps cleverly laid across the floor...
Beastie is probably dining on Chango Frito y jalapenos y bebe frito y George Bush y Laura Bush y Dick Cheney frito...
Accompanied by vintage claret reddened with the blood of a tigress.
Anyways, that's what Beastie is likely doing (along with basking in the son and devouring any poodles who are stupid enough to come her way)...this is going to be one long week awaiting Beastie's return.

Weekly Update
The esteemed Professor Ado Ra Pestito gave a lecture at Seeds of Learning on Thursday, May 18th, pontificating on the subject of Henry the Eighth, whom she deemed quite a knavish character. Professor Pestito spoke quite eloquently and was obviously well informed, though she displayed her depraved sense of humor from time to time, making macabre jokes and comments like 'oh, good, another headroller'. Professor The Beast was most impressed and gave praise that bordered on fulsome. We eagerly await Professor Gata's lecture on Hiroshima, which will hopefully not involve quite as many innapropriate jokes.
In other news...Professor The Beast continues to live the life of a Philistine bon vivant, Frassy continues to insinuate that Pestito is oloroso, and Katie-san's improvident otter pop habit continues to deplete her allowance.

Leaf girls.
Actually, I saved that document as leafy girls, but does it matter? The answer is apparent. Well, I don't want to go babbling on, but it seems I'm prone to. Well, this is what I wrote for the assignment a few seconds ago, which was to write about an ivy leaf without using the words: green, leaf, ivy, or plant. I wrote
'life vibrating through a summer of different colored love'.
Have to continue with the rest of class now.

Impious Vocabulary
The Morris Razbelly Diner was a nasty little dive down on the corner of 42nd and Penderle Street. Its waitresses had a reputation for chicanery; customers were always complaining that they had been overcharged. The owner, Morris 'Big Belly' Razbelly, maintained a semblance of respectability in the community, but it was whispered that he was a fence. He ran a poker game out of the back room, and the Honorable Reverend White devoted several sermons to decrying the diner as a den of iniquity and vice. Big Belly was skilled in the art of sophistry and was able to (fallaciously) convince customers who feared the wrath of the allmighty that God himself played poker.

the banal thingo
It seemed blue all around.
The mountains were much bigger than behemoths, a perfect tower over the beautiful landscape. If you listened on the topmost top of the mountain, you would hear nothing. Nothing at all. It would just be you and the silence; the water lapping up onto the shore way down below you.
You would be able to see the whole ocean and have the urge to dive into it all of a sudden. But you wouldn’t-you’d stay up on the mountain, on top of the world.

cat gods vs. deranged dogs
The birth of cats happened in the third half of 100 B.C. The cats were fairly tiny, and were only the color black. Sir Mondraken of Latunia discovered a cat in the Ukatan mountains and gave the species the name, 'cat', short for cattani, which, from italian, translated to the word death god. For now, that's all...I have to have dinner.

I wish we had a carcass of bush or something....
When I was a few months younger, I began to write an essay in my notebook, about how bush was, and still is, a complete. Here I have to stop, (unnecessarily, I think), because I am not allowed to include 'swear words' in this blog. Which sucks, I believe. Well, I will continue, replacing the bad word with the word, hmm. Let me think. There is not nearly a word good as the bad word that fits bush. Perhaps I will make up my own swear word. Of course...why didn't I think of that? The equivelent of that bad word I wished to include but couldn't. Okay, here goes: When I was a few months younger, I began to write an essay in my notebook, about how bush was, and still is, a complete gnikcuf elohssa. Beautiful, don't you think? Nah, actually, not. You're wrong! I think i'm blubbering and babbling this thing along. Of course, this was supposed to be about bush....
so. I'll begin to lecture you on the bads of bush: Dum dum dum DUM....(that twas supposed to be a drumroll or something):
Bush is an inhuman 'creature'. Scientists believe he skipped half of his schooling. (Of course, though, they were probably surprised to find out he didn't skip all of it). Bush is an awful war creater, a murderer, (well, I mean, probably), and does not deserve to be president. He is a ****ofalotta trouble for the universe. Here's what I think Bush's childhood was like.
THE NEW YORK TIMES
George Bush was born May 15, 44 BC, to the horror of his parents, George and Barbara Bush.
"When we first saw him, we thought that he had come straight from hell," Barbara Bush tells us. Her husband nods his agreement and adds,
"Yeah-he was writhing and screaming his head off. We thought he was, like, the devil or something."
When Bush was only 2, his parents took him to the hospital, to check if he was mentally retarded or not. The test was never finished, as George Bush started a breathtaking tantrum and destroyed several mirrors along with many other items. He was rushed out of the hospital and driven back home immediatley.
alright....enough for now. I hope i've convinced you (if you weren't already convinced) that bush is a gnikcuf dratsab. Along with other awful things, of course. Well, i'll welcome you back for the 3rd half of my show, like....perhaps tomorrow.

while the beast isn't here to guard the fortress....
Since, I suppose, this is a school blog, I will not post anything relating to me exactly. I will write only by the school me. Anyways, I suppose I have to get started. Geez, I can't write about how it's the first day of summer, either. Alright. I can't spell words wrong or get my grammar messed up or uncapitalize or capitalize in the wrong places. I could write about after school today....well, basically, I was just pushing Adora and Katie on the swing. Katie got sort of crazy and started singing about how she was so loopy. It sounded like she was hopelessly drunk. Looked like it, too: she was swinging and looping around and bobbling her head and swinging wildly. Not to mention the singing, which I already mention.
"mama had a baby and the babie's head went POP!!" She did that with a weed, actually. Katie did. Then again she does that 10 times a day. Really, actually, I have to say, today really is summer. I keep forgetting it's technically spring, though of course, it's not. My way, anyway. Maybe it's the weather...but don't get me wrong, I think I'll be walking around in shorts and a t shirt and bare feet until i'm murdered or something. Unless I die freezing my feet off. I meant I'm going to walk around with summer clothes on till winter. Which makes sense too much, because, isn't everyone going to do that? I mean, except in Alaska of course. Well, it was fun in school, too, I guess, cause me and Adora and Katie got to teach. Adora was first, of course, and began talking with a highly professional groan-ish voice. Sounded a lot like my mother, maybe genes? Groan meaning grown up, of course. Highly professional stick-your-nose-up grown up. Of course, not all adults are like that. The Beast, for example, isn't. Getting off subject here. I went next, with a presentation about Harry Houdini, which I thought was cool myself. I mean, doing it myself. Presenting it was a different story. Well, the website with Harry Houdini was neat, because it fooled with your brain and made you see Harry Houdini's ghost, which totally rocked. Even though I knew it was only fooling with our brains. It looked really real, though. http://www.houdinitribute.com/img/magicpic.jpg
well I gotta go.

A Bunch of Crap: The WASL
This year’s WASL is making everybody horribly excited, and I’m no exception. I simply love sitting all day in a stuffy and overheated room with a bunch of devilish, rowdy children giving me funny looks all day. It’s so fun being dragged into PE, where I accidentally trip teammates, stand motionless and confused on the front line, get shouted at and called out, and am purposely knocked over numerous times by annoyed people. Music is even better, with us all singing sentimental, boring Charlotte’s Web songs stating that we are all the same and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
It’s wonderful reading through banal stories saying, “Dick put her in a tub. She climbed out. He put her in the tub again. She climbed out again,” and answering easy and boring questions. I would hate reading interesting epic tales of bastards turned brownies, pickpocket princesses, and tragedies telling of diabolical magistrates rising to the chair of Supreme King of the World while the Good Side were tortured and killed.
Math is perfect, with questions asking 1+1 and 1-1 which I at least have the ability to finish in a few minutes. There are delightful coin problems which I learned at five or something and a bunch of other idiotic things which are obviously created by a couple jackasses with no intention of creating a interesting curriculum for the students of various schools.

good god, everyones gone crazy...
The WASL should be banned. Seriously. Kids are getting toxic waste pushed up their brains from taking it. First of all, the WASL is way too easy. Calling the WASL WASL is a joke. Washington Assesment of Student Learning. I mean really…come on! Who’s learning anything?
The ‘stories’ in them are banal and awful and for babies. They expect kids to read this stuff? They put a Cinderella story in the 5th grade WASL! What the hell? Don’t they know that most 5th graders are reading things like Jane Eyre and Go Ask Alice and The Great Cheese Conspiracy? Obviously not. And the word problems…are retarded! The people that made the WASL must be evil retarded bitches. But that is sort of obvious.

Violent Vocabulary
Due to her derogatory, vapid speeches Adrianna was thrown from the stage and into the bog. She was, unluckily, lucid enough to continue with her speech, and we all threw a few sharp stones at her. Unfortunately, her blood began to coagulate and soon stopped altogether.
"You are an awful black-hearted jerk!" Adrianna's cat remarked in a derogatory fashion.
Adora plunged down into hell, but she was still completely lucid, and continued with her diatribe. She wanted to marry the devil, but their propinquity caused the archangel Gabriel to slide down a tunnel between the two dimensions to forbid it.
Adora's speech was awfully vapid, and she recieved hisses and boos from the audience.
Because of Adrianna and Adora's propinquity, they fought each other and eventually blew each other up.

THE UNWANTED DOOMPAPER-FORTELLING EPHEMERAL LIVES AND TORTUROUS DEATHS
An anonymous insider of RE from the Academy of Ominous and Forbidding Knowledge (a.k.a Seeds of Learning) shared secret information from the school with members of AOFK, relating to a miserable test, bad teachers, and one Stuart Little movie.
This information will be used in the comparison between regular schools and the quite superior Academy of Ominous and Forbidding Knowledge, and the anonymous insider will continue to feed us information relating to the subjects.
The Academy of Ominous and Forbidding Knowledge centers on unique things, such as the diligent studying of the gangs of New York, research on bunny rabbits, a scourge upon the land, and other such interesting subjects which have no chances of being taught at an elementary school such as RE.
Schools such as RE pay unskilled teachers to drone on and on and on about bad or good behavior and how one could improve while the students make faces, pass notes, throw spitballs, and do not pay attention in any way.
Schools such as RE have students watch Stuart Little movies in class, color pictures and draw and write stupid things and call it “learning” and act altogether idiotic in school hours.

The assignments I liked in School:
Mostly all the writing assignments. Mostly. The vocab...well, I'm sort of used to it. I hate math, of course, though. And Science and Geography. Hmm. I'm not so good at writing this stuff for the school blog, because, I have to write it proffesionally, which makes me sound like a two year old. I mean, you can't exactly write on a school blog about all the horrors of life. Uh. Back to the assignment. Okay, as I said, I exactly am terrified by even the mention of math or geometry or science. I am kind of getting off track aren't I? Why am I asking a blog? Hmm. Okay, anyway, back to the assignment for the third time. So.. I am terrified by writing in this blog. I can't really write anything good at all! Alright. My favorite subjects are writing. And. Thats it, cause Math and Science and Geography are basically the only subjects in school. Almost, anyways. Oh. And poetry. But that counts as writing. Goodbye for now, fella bambooswappers.
I'm finally pretty much done, I've wrote at least a page I guess---

Notes From Beastie
A disclaimer: for the time being my computer has a broken key, which happens to be the period key-Therefore, some of my posts may seem a bit Faulknerian, or perhaps have a Beat type flow-This is not me attempting to be avant garde-
Adora has suggested that we change the name of this blog from Seeds of Learning to 'The Academy of Hell', but somehow I doubt that that's going to bring in more students-She next suggested 'The Online Academy of Ominous and Forbidding Knowledge Compiled a Cult of Dignified Students and a Disgruntled Teacher', which sounds somewhat appropriate given some of our history lessons; however, cult is not a word that one generally wants associated with an afterschool program-

Doors
By Mariannananananananananananananan Naananananaanananan
Did you know doors go back and forth? When somebody turns the doorknob and pulls, it opens! Magic! When somebody pushes on the doorknob, it closes! Isn’t it amazing?
Doors go like this because they are on hinges. Hinges need to be oiled. Hinges will creak if they are not oiled. Hinges are made by people out of materials.
Doors are useful in houses. We have them outside of rooms so that we have privacy. We don’t want other people seeing us do secret stuff.
Doors are wonderful. They are useful. Hurray for doors!
1) In this article, the author states we have doors outside of rooms because of what?
o We don’t want cats eating us.
o We don’t want to get out.
o We don’t want people seeing us do secret stuff.
1. In this article, the author states doors are on:
o Hinges
o Cakes
o Fingers
2. In this article, the author states doors go:
o Side to side
o Back and forth
o Tumbling all over the room

A Horrifying Experience
My classmate is giving me venomous looks because of this title: "A Horrifying Experience"; however, I am forced to believe that a teacher talking to you in a condescending, fakely sweet honey-like voice and a bunch of reincarnations of G.L. (the human montrosity who used to torment students of S.O.L.) are anything but pleasant. Weird looks from kids when I asked whether I should spit out my gum drove me to believe that it could not be a wonderful experience.
On my first day of WASL testing at the mysterious and anonymous K.B.'s school I witnessed three boys wreaking havoc in a fairly large classroom with the teacher Instant Messaging or doing some shady business through it all. The only time she chose to bellow "Sit down facing the front!" was when we were all perfectly seated like a bunch of angels. Most of the kids were devils in disguise as angels, though.
Music was a complete bore, with a range of midgets to giants (all, apparently, eight or nine years old) singing idiotic and high-pitched babyish Charlotte's Web songs, as well as boys obnoxiously shouting they had to go to the bathroom along with some awful out-of-tune singing. I mouthed most of the words.
PE was alright although I kept on punching the ball to the side and knocking it into the clock, which had to be attended to by the frowning coach at once. I was not a complete failure, like the girl who accidentally threw the ball right down at her feet, but I didn't score any points either.
To all of you at R.E., sorry for this but this is really how I feel about your place.
Adora
Public Schools are confusing.
I had to go to the Redmond Elementary School on Monday, to take the WASL. I was worried that I would be late in finishing that session of the math test, but I was wrong. I had to read for an hour. I was in a room full of 4th graders. Only one other boy was in the 5th grade, taking the same boring test as me. Everyone was really quiet, I guess unlike Seeds of Leraning. I was kind of unused to raising my hand. When I was done I got to read. And read and read and read. Eventually my back got sore for sitting up for about 2 hours. I wanted to lie down and read but I didn't dare ask anybody if I could. So there I just sat and waited. That happened for about two days.
The test sessions aren't that hard, actually. Fairly easy, but awful boring. They use names like Lottie and Louis, Jane and Ann. Why can't they just use names like zilch and sfuzzi? Fails me. And those word problems...WHY would anyone want to test if grass grows better in less light or more light? WHY would anyone want to find out how to attract more birds to their yard? Jeez. Whoever out there who makes these tests, quit and let someone more interesting do it.
