Catholic School Stories

Yellow Butter

Yellow butter, purple jelly, red jam, black bread
Spread it thick
Say it quick

Yellow butter, purple jelly, red jam, black bread
Spread it thicker
Say it quicker

Yellow butter, purple jelly, red jam, black bread
Now repeat it
while you eat it

Yellow butter, purple jelly, red jam, black bread
Don't talk
with your mouth full!

So yeah, it wouldn't be school without the traumatizing talent show! Yes, that's right boys and girls. And naturally it wouldn't be a real talent show without involuntary skits performed by various grades.

Poor kids.

I mean, I understand having the kindergarden class get up there and make complete fools of themselves. They are young and can repress the memory eventually, but having the 2nd graders perform the Yellow Butter poem as a class is horrific! seriously, they should protest or something. I can imagine them standing outside the school with signs and T shirts. But it is a Catholic school and they might be mistaken for those pro-Immigration people. I would hate the see the police throw that first can of tear gas at them. [happy imagery]

Anyways, yea. The talent show is Wednesday. I actually might go. MAYBE. America's Next Top Model is on Wednesdays!! And this week Daniella gets hospitalized for something. Probably for anorexia or something... yeah, they ARE models right? So it's a toss up.

Oh man, there's a 4th grader singing Kelly Clarkson's Behind These Hazel Eyes... whoa. And I hate her too... Man, I have stuff to think about.
