Come Play With Us, Danny. Forever And Ever And Ever.
Current Song: "Intervention" -- Arcade Fire
The curious joys of public speaking class continue. Today, in order to demonstrate the importance of listening, the instructor got us playing that game Telephone. You know, where someone whispers a message to you and you whisper it to the person on the other side until it comes out garbled somewhere down the end. The important things to remember about today's game of Telephone (and I assure you these are neither fabrications nor exaggerations):
1. The game started at approximately 9:15 AM and ended at 10:40 AM. Seriously. It was about an hour and a half of Telephone.
2. About 20 minutes in the class divided into teams and began playing Competitive Telephone, which turned into a screaming match where chairs got knocked over and somebody almost cried.
Most Interesting Thing I Saw Today: An 18-year-old hockey player, red faced, waving his arms around, throwing a book across a table and screaming "This is bush league!" after losing a point in a children's game.
