Journal #10: Mints


We the people of the A-5 English 332 class deserve mints from Mr. Langley.  For our numerous struggles and battles we face in this accelerated class, we deserve those delicious little round mints more than any other human being.

First of all, Mr. Langley misses class.  He leaves us with directions which is nice, but if we have questions, they go unanswered!  This is a reason we deserve mints because we struggle to keep going on with our assignments with little direction.  We need mints so we will not start an uprising due to these conditions.  "The man" aka Mr. Langley must satisfy our rebellious spirit with the yummy mints, or else the consequences could be dire.

Another reason we deserve mints is because we are an advanced class.  We could reside in the non-honors English class, but we decide to go above and beyond expectations.  We do not want to answer the normal questions.  We want to think critically and analyze stories with our twenty-first century skills!  We should be rewarded for our hard work and dedication to this honors class.  We do not expect much in return for our efforts, but it would be splendid to be rewarded in this small way.

Last but not least, we need mints because it is the end of the day, and we need to focus.  Days at Pleasant Plains High School can get drawn out and boring.  By our last class, we are often unruly and hard to control.  A few simple mints might be the cure to a hyperactive and inattentive class.  These small mints might help us calm down.  Mints are actually proven to stimulate thought and brain activity.  I know this because way back in middle school, they gave us mints before ISAT testing to stimulate our brains.  These little mints could be the difference between paying attention and falling asleep in class.  It is a small bargain to make with us, therefore you should supply us with mints.
