Apparently I want to guillotine all the green jellybeans...

Meh, I officially wish school was over now. I love it to death, especially French, History, and Computer Tech., but I'm just getting too worn out. Since I'm leaving two days early, I have just 16 days (counting weekends) left, and then it's straight to Vermont for a week followed by a short trip to Fort Ticonderoga. Oh, how badly I'm looking forward to this. ^^ I'll have to go to the school office and schedule my finals early (normally they're on the last two days of school), but it'll be worth it.

Today I went to Barnes & Noble to get my summer reading for my Advanced Placement U.S. History class. On the car drive there, my sister kept singing nonsense songs, including how she wanted to be a tractor when she grew up, and somewhere in there she threw in that I want to guillotine all the green jellybeans. O_o For the public record, I have nothing against them, and I don't believe they're guilty of Royalist activity.

At the bookstore I made out pretty well. I found three of the five books, and I also scored the newest volume of the manga Earthian and this new book What Would the Founders Do? by Richard Brookhiser. Now the only two left on my reading list are 1776 by David McCullough (brilliant author!) and The Real Lincoln by Thomas Dilorenzo. Yum, books.


And now some French Rev slash. The first one I wrote a little while ago for daughtermestizo, and the second proves that I clearly have a thing for oranges... O_o

Citrus Addiction
(Saint-Just/Robespierre: 100 words/PG-15)

( The tangy scent of oranges permeated the air )

Citrus Addiction II
(Saint-Just/Robespierre: 268 words/PG-13)

( The ripe section of orange gave easily as Maximilien Robespierre bit down. )
