I have seen a few Shakespeare plays myself.  On a field trip, we went to see Romeo and Juliet.  Last year's spring play was Macbeth. Both were really good.
Adam, I am so jealous.  Fred and George were my favorite characters in Harry Potter, and I admire James and Oliver as actors.  I also wished I own a Pizza John shirt, but, sadly, I do not.

Your question is hard for me.  I would say the United States, but we were more of a power during and before WWII.  Now we are in a ton of debt.  Most of that debt is owed to China (I think), so I'd say China is one of the more powerful countries.  After all, most of the US's products come from China, or at least that is what it seems like.

This weekend is Stickaid.  I'm looking forward to it and I hope I can stay up the whole 24 hours.  It starts at 6 A.M. my time so really I'll only need to be up for 25ish hours. Then on Sunday I plan to sleep until Noon and then go to bed early so I can get a good amount of sleep before school on Monday.  I like sleep.
I never did much on the internet before 2011 so I missed out on Stickaid last year.  I had made a promise to myself that I would watch it this year, but this morning I realized that the Homecoming Dance was also Saturday.
The realization actually made me smile.  It was a funny coincidence and it gave me a reason to not got to the dance.  The dance bored me last year, I know this year would have been more fun, but I still didn't want to go.


Because it's Homecoming week, it's SPIRIT WEEK!  I never really get into the spirit week tradition.  Each day we dress up as something different.  Today was hippie/tie-dye, tomorrow will be pajama day, Wednesday is western/cowboy day, Thursday will be class color day (my class color:  green), and Friday is spirit day.  Spirit day is when we dress in our school colors, black and gold.

But there is a terrible bit of irony to this...
Saturday night, around 10:30 PM, Facebook exploded with posts.  There was a rumor (that really wasn't a rumor, there was just no "official" source) that the beloved drama teacher had killed himself.  I never knew him, but people talked about how great he was and how no one would have expected him to do that.  I didn't cry.  I felt sad, but like I said, I didn't know him well.

I would write other things, but I'm afraid this post may get too long. I'll probably write more on my personal blog later.
