such a great visit

Last week, foreign exchange college students came and toured our school because they have never seen an american high school. i met with felix and terry. i learned that they are both majoring in business management. i learned that felix played soccer for 20 years and that terry sells IVs for a living and has one son. i told them about my hobbies and personalities and my job. i shared our athletic and theater departments along with our wood shop. i shared the science wing and the elevators and the always of our school. then we shared the culinary and library departments. they enjoyed the theater aspect and the wood shop and the tiny house theyre making. they think that were all very friendly and nice. i personally learned some Chinese characters and got to view photos they took of their home towns and lives. i then learned how our cultures and societies differ and especially how our schools differ greatly. if i had more time i would have tried to learn more about their language and home.

hopper inspired piece

A and B have waited for over an hour before C arrived, and even longer before B brokev the silence that followed.
"what are you wearing, i told you to look inconspicuous?" asked b

"No one can see who I am so id say i am looking inconspicuous" c replied

"inconspicuous means unnoticed, everybody noticed the clown walking into the restaraunt"

"But, my friend, who in their right mind would dress as a clown? Certainly not a wanted criminal about to attempt a robbery"

"Be quiet you idiot, someone will hear you!"

"Look around us, no one is looking or listening, if you looked closely they are trying their hardest to avoid it. its the perfect camouflage."

In the silence A finally spoke for the first time "i agree with C and no one followed us in, we're in the clear"

C lit a cigarette and sneered at B

A spoke again "Now C did you bring the stuff?

C smiled "once again the clown saves the day. Its all packed into the thick concealing jacket of my costume"

"what did you bring?"

"Two 45.s and one 12 gauge"

"seems a little overkill for a fancy restaurant like this"

"never can be too careful"

B spoke again "yeah right you just wanted to use a shotgun, we could get away clean with th knives on our table if we needed to"

C replied "so what, as long as we get the money"

A spoke again "the weeks over so all the money they made will be all in the safebox upstairs, judging by the turnout there should be over $2000 dollars in there, plus whats in these peoples wallets"

C replied with a smile "well lets get on with it then, i doubt these people have ever been robbed by a clown"

A spoke "okay. 1..."

B "2.."

finally C screamed "3!" and opened his jacket

but they weren't faster than the woman beside them who had her gun pointed at Cs head before he could even open his jacket. She spoke in a gruff voice and calmly said "sheriffs deputy, you're under arrest"

and the clown in the restaurant just pouted with a cigarette in his mouth
