We'll be here 'til Thursday

So right now I am sitting in HF high school's library. It is not very big, but not very small, not very useful, and not very exciting. It is pretty much a normal place. THere are (obviously) books, internet, and tables with wooden chairs. It is a fairly pleasant place to spend one's gym period when out on "medical" leave. However, today is not just a usual* day in HF's library. Today, there is a book fair! THe book fair, usually featured in elementary schools, holds many exciting and interesting items availiable for purchase. There are books at eigth grade reading levels, erasers shaped like smiley faces, and even a box full of assorted holographic bookmarks! THere are "Hot Picks!" and "Cool Stuff!" as indicated by colorful cardboard signs. All in all, it is quite the fair. I mean, this place is buzzing with action and excitement. THey even have troll pens. Troll pens!! How awesome is that?!? AW man, book fair, you are so cool! (And the best part is, students, my peers, my supposed equals, are buying this crap!) I find all of this rather remarkable.

*"a usual"...is that correct? Because you use "an" before a word that starts with a vowel, but "an usual" does not work. I think, that because of the "y" sound at the beginning of usual, it must be "a usual". If any of you have knowledge on this subject, do share it with me.

I don't really see how troll pens enrich your life and open new doors in ways you never thought possible, like these people tell you will happen if you give them money in exchange for books about what video games Hanson likes to play on their tour bus.
