Book Club BS Again

Yeah, so if anyone was at all interested in the book club, we met on Monday and decided to read Geek Love by Katherine Dunn. There is a Facebook group for us where there will be updates and whatnot.

The Beautiful Game

I had to post this, seeing as the whole world will be gearing up to watch the beautiful game of football (soccer). I, and millions, if not billions of others, have been waiting four years for this. I especially, have been waiting longer to see an event like this take place on African soil. I don't know why most Americans don't appreciate football, but I'm hoping people will take a couple hours off just to watch one game. If you're cheering for the American team, don't expect them to go past the quarterfinals, but anything can happen. Also, some people need to understand the magnitude of this event. The World Cup is a ridiculously huge event. The biggest sporting event in America is the Super Bowl, right? That draws around 100 million viewers. In comparison, the world cup draws 7 times as many viewers, with viewer ship nearing 1 billion. People in third world countries who are living in slums will find a way to watch the game, so you should as well. Anyway, in short, watch at least one game of the world cup. I posted a really nice commercial for the game and a song called Wavin' Flag by the Somalian singer K'Naan. Word.

Book Club!

The first meeting of AP Lang's book club, although others are very welcome, will take place on June 14 at 2 'o'clock at Barnes & Noble. Everybody can bring one or two titles that you have either read or want to read for consideration.
A book club is something that requires a certain amount of commitment, so please decide if you are willing to dedicate the time needed beforehand.

Thanks, guys! I'm looking forward to see you all. =)

The Facebook event page is here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=134291603252482
