Does it matter that I already have 10 unused notebooks? No. I need this one too.

I started school two days ago and I decided that I should go through all my projects for this semester to decide if I should start crying about them now, and my second English project is titled 'Making Memes.' I go to a Christian school. They are going to make me make appropriate, not funny, Bible related memes for a quarter of my grade. Why do they even know what memes are? And why did they decide that making memes was definitely a necessary and required skill for seniors? Why do they think that any teenager that uses the internet doesn't know how to make a meme?

This is me, never leaving the house but when I actually do:

I religiously, emotionally, physically, epistemically, existentially, and spiritually identify with this

But now a new collaboration is designing fashionable hospital gowns to encourage sick teens that they’re not “just a hospital patient.” See how they react when they try their new robes on.

This is amazing! AMAZING. Chronic illness does its best to strip you of your dignity, your control, and your identity. This is a great example of how things that might seem trivial to a healthy person, can make all the difference in someones life.

So one of our new vocabulary words is “malus”, meaning “bad”, and I asked my students if they could think of any English derivatives, telling them that just about any English word that begins with M-A-L is going to mean something “bad”.

I’m expecting stuff like: malice, malcontent, malnourished, or even malware or Maleficent.

Instead I get this one girl in the back of the room say “male” with the most dead-eyed expression.

This has the same energy as two years ago when another student said she remembered “vir” meant “man” because “it looks like virus, and men are a virus”.

One of my Latin students, whenever I’d ask if they wanted a couple extra minutes to review before a test, would always say, “No, we die like men.” And so finally I asked her why it was always ‘like men’. She said, “We die like men, unprepared and useless.”
