Movies
Today - even though it was one of those rare days where it was actually warm outside - we watched animal movies at school. One was a fake documentary on dragons! It was "Dragons: A Fantasy Made Real" from Animal Planet. THIS is the official website. We also watched a DVD with three of "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom" episodes on it. We watched "King Cobra and I" and part of "Great Cats of India". HERE is Mutual of Omaha's official site.

Long story short, for Español class, I have to carry it on during a song about fruit at the end-of-the-year program at school.

A Midsummer Night's Dream!
At school, we are doing parts of Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" for the end-of-the-year program! These are my favorite parts:
Most Tragical
A little background: some people are doing a play for the duke's wedding. In the play, a man and a woman (Pyramus and Thisbe) are sperated from each other.
Pyramus:
"What dreadful dole is here!
Eyes, do you see?
How can it be?
O dainty duck ! O dear!
Thy mantle good,
What, stain'd with blood!
Approach, ye Furies fell!'
O Fates, come, come,
Cut thread and thrum;
Quail, crush, conclude, and quell!"
"O wherefore, Nature, didst thou lions frame?
Since lion vile hath here deflower'd my dear:
Which is—no, no—which was the fairest dame
That lived, that loved, that liked, that look'd with cheer.
Come, tears, confound ;
Out, sword and wound
The pap of Pyramus; Ay, that left pap,
Where heart doth hop : [Stabs himself.]
Thus, die I, thus, thus, thus.
Now am I dead,
Now am I fled;
My soul is in the sky:
Tongue, lose thy light;
Moon, take thy flight: [Exit Moonshine.]
Now die, die, die, die, die. [Dies.]"
Most Funny
A little background: some people are doing a play for the duke's wedding. A man named Snug is going to be a lion in the play.
Lion:
"You, ladies, you, whose gentle hearts do fear,
The smallest monstrous mouse that creeps on floor,
May now perchance both quake and tremble here,
When lion rough in wildest rage doth roar.
Then know that I, one Snug the joiner, am
A lion-fell, nor else no lion's dam;
For, if I should as lion come in strife,
Into this place, 'twere pity on my life."

The story of Cinco de Mayo!
Hey, do you know why Cinco de Mayo is calle "Cinco de Mayo"? Well, a long ways back, Mexicans were getting weekly shipments from Europe, because they loved European food so much! Well, they esspecially loved mayonnaise. So, they ordered a ship full of just mayonnaise to come into a major Mexican port; I think it was Altamira, Tamaulipas. Well, the ship with their mayonnaise was a few leagues off of the Mexican coast when it sank! CINCO DE MAYO!!! If you don't get it, read it aloud!!!
