Ugh! I've been dreading this day for as long as I can remember, or at least since Ms. Nakada announced we were starting over for blogs. After hiding behind Tali for many days, the time has come that I must do the blog.

When the bell rang, we sat down for class and took a minute to breath while Ms. Nakada played calming music. Then, Zurie read their blog to the class and chose me to write today's blog. Ms. Nakada said there were no mistakes so we didn't need to correct Zurie's blog. While the class was writing our novels during NaNo session 1, Ms. Nakada explained the novel buddy system and letter to Tali and Sammy since they missed class yesterday. When the time was up for NaNo session 1, we started Scene Explosions. Class was going well but then, the fire alarm went off! The fire alarm goes off way too much at this school. Everyone had to stand up, pack up their stuff and we headed down the hallway and out onto the field. On the field we sat down for a minute and were told to go back to class because there wasn't a real fire.

When we came back to the classroom, we continued taking notes and talking about character development, plot twists, conflict and setting. Ms. Nakada talked about how she was low-key depressed when she moved to LA and how setting can either reflect or not reflect your mood. Lastly, we worked on our novels until the bell rang and it was time to go to fourth period.
