Notes from the Life of a Total Genius Read Online Free PDF Page B

Coming out with a bang, hey?
    I think it is important that the newspaper share the student opinion, but we do want to remain objective as well. Come by my class at lunch tomorrow and we’ll edit your piece to ensure it’s respectful to everyone. We’ll make sure that it looks good, and then we can publish your article and Kennedy’s pro-ID-wearing article side-by-side. We’ll make sure that our readers get to read from both sides of the coin!
    Cheers!
Mr. E.

    Dear Robbie,
    What are you up to this weekend? I’m not doing much of anything. Other than starting work on my play, of course. I was thinking of writing a five-act play like all of Shakespeare’s stuff, but Hark said that he wanted it to be a one-act play festival. I suggested to him that my play could be the final night of the festival, and cap it all off with this epic tragedy. He said that I could write a long show, but that I should challenge myself to write a shorter, tighter piece, but keeping the tension of a long piece. He’s totally right, of course. Not only that, but the plays have to be written before Christmas break so that we can cast them and rehearse in the winter. You should transfer back to Calgary for the second semester! You could be in my play! I’ve been thinking about ways to get football into my show, but I don’t know if it’s going to happen.
    How’s football? Are you the quarterback yet?
    Yours truly,
    Arthur Bean

    Hey dude-
    mom is super strict re: w-end screentime (sux so hard), so this is gonna be short. caleb is losing his mind w her. its almost funny. lethbridge = deathbridge = true story. Plus, mom signed up both me and caleb for tutoring. there goes any fun. football is good. i’m not QB, just defence mostly. the guys on the team are pretty cool. theyve all been going to school 2gether 4 so long tho that i dont get most of the in-jokes.

    Dear Robbie,
    Hayley sounds awesome. It sucks that she’s dating someone already. But you should have an edge, being the new, mysterious football player at the school. There’s no one here to date, either.
    On another topic, Kennedy got elected to the grad committee. She’s really excited. I think she’ll do a pretty good job of making it a good party. She’s already been coming into the Leg Breakers to get some candid photos of all the clubs for the year-end slideshow. Catie’s on the grad committee too. She’s as awful and mean as ever, so I try and avoid her at all costs. I can’t believe you used to like her last year! I hope that Hayley is a better human.
    My dad and I started fencing this week too. It sucks! It was all a bunch of footwork, and we practised going forwards and backwards for an hour, because in fencing you can ONLY go backwards and forwards. You can’t even turn your back on your opponent without losing a point. Not only that, but our fencing master (that’s what he calls himself) is this French dude named Didier (I call him Deeter), and all the commands and steps are in French. It’s really lame, and I asked him to do it in English, but he said that fencing is always in French. It sucks so much, but Dad said that we had to finish the beginner lessons, so I’m stuck until winter break. At least Dad seemed to hate it too. Hate brings families together!
    Yours truly,
    Arthur Bean

    Hey, Artie,
    Can you stop by my classroom today after school? Ms Kraleigh
