spirit week's back

That's right, all of you out-of-towners, spirit week is back at NHS. And, as ususal, Monday was p.j. day. Let me tell you why p.j. day is the best day of all time ever. 1) the others days generally suck 2) you don't have to get changed or shower, and most importantly number 3) You know those kids that look well, not at their best at school just from a lack of effort in the morning? Well now they have an excuse. Even some of the teachers got into it, especially the ones on tenure, which I thought was awesome. If you've been teaching that long, you deserve to go to school wearing whatever you feel like, after all it is spirit week, not lack-of-spirit week, duh. Anyway, Juniors somehow got stuck with racketsports for tommorow's sports day. I'm pretty sure the sports were lame last year too, hence the unofficial switch to 'dress like a rap star' day, which many used as another p.j. day- white undershirt with saggy pants. The best part about that day was the threat to send kids who actually dressed like a rapper home, in other words suspension for wearing clothes that didn't break the dress code. Mr. Shambleau-a-big-one said that it portrayed a 'negative racial stereotype' which I feel was inadvertenly more racist than dressing up like 'pac. All I'll say is that you've got your 50 cent and Kanye, your Eminem, your d.j. Khaled, and your counltess others that are of different races but still dress the same. So how is dressing as your favorite rap star racist? Go figure. Anyway, I was too busy with the hw tonight to go to dick's and get the necessary short shorts, sweatbands, eye protection, and high socks to dress up as a racketeer, so whatever. I will say that I hope most girls decide to dress up as Anna Kournikova though. Word.
