y'all a STRAIGHT-UP CONE.

Little did CatCooper know that her life would be altered that fateful Tuesday of presenting  in second period Geometry.  The day she donned a blue and yellow cone hat would live in infamy for generations to come.  This day would transform the course of history to the extent that Cat would make a list that is not relative to Jon Foreman, music, or P Meggy.  

GASP

Okay, rewind.  

So today me and three friends presented a section on finding surface area of cones.  Therefore, we all wore cone hats.  

I wore mine for the rest of the day as well.  What kind of person would I be to deny myself the happiness of wearing a cone for a day?  

Well, I'm not sure if it would be a good thing to deny myself that opportunity.  

Maybe a LIST would help me figure it out.  

Lik a pro/con list....


The PRO's of wearing a cone on your head for a whole day....
--the upperclassmen who sit at the table behind me at lunch finally acknowledging that I exist
--my geometry teacher being impressed and loving me more (I didn't know it was possible for her to love me more)
--cute guys commenting on my hat
--referring to myself as a fairy princess'
--weirding people out more than usual
--pretending to be a unicorn
--having a reason for people to stare at me other than my charm and good lucks (you decide whether I say this sarcastically or not....)
--being laughed at
--making new friends (for the time being)
--pretending to be a student at Hogwarts

The CON's of wearing a cone on your head for a whole day.... 
 --the upperclassmen who sit at the table behind me at lunch finally acknowledging that I exist
--being called a cone 7193476790283283476 times
--being asked why I am wearing a cone on my head 72514364790821 times (I got very creative after time number 5436 and invented some ruddy brilliant answers)
--having my cone touched
--the awkward people who are unable to stare discreetly
--hmm....nothing else


My point that earned a place on both lists is somewhat humorous, really.  
PRO--Us freshies and the big scary old people are on marginally good terms.  Which is pretty new.  We have two freshie tables and one of them was berated with food and salt.  There has been a fair amount of disdain since The Showering of the Sodium.  
CON--Okay, so one of them, a blonde chick, took about five minutes of my lunch to ask dumb questions.  Her last question was "If you were talking about cubes, would you wear a cube on your head?"  My response, "Obviously I would make the cube into a chic bracelet."  Not making the most stimulating of conversations.  


Honestly, most of that group seemed to regard me with wariness.  It could've been that in the five minutes before the Inquisition that I (a) flapped my arms lik wings and (b) spent a minute two with the volume of my voice raised a good deal.  

(a) is justifiable.  My friend Katie suggested that I couldn't be a fairy princess since I don't have wings.  What would Wille Nelson have done in that situation?  Something similar....

(b) also is explained.  My friend Bailey suggested that Tonks/Harry was an adorable pairing.  I yelled said that one could only find that adorable if they were Hermione/Lupin shipper.  A stimulating argument ensued, both my friend Katie and held our defenses that T/H is creepy.  Tonks is no cougar.  What would JKR do in that case?  Faint most likely....

Hmm....  So I guess I'm done babbling for the day.  

A Histrionic Goodbye from CatCooper<3
