BACK TO SCHOOL

Meoweee, summer sure was fun, but today I'm very excited, because it's the first day of school and I'm going to take you all with me ... for the whole day!!

8:00 in the morning ...
Meowmie drops me off at school and I see all my friends, so I run over there and we admire each others new clothes. In the distance, I see a few toms playing in the sand box, or at least it looks like they're playing. I really hope they're playing. After all, t's not a litter box!!

8:15 ...
The bell rings and we all rush inside to begin a new year of learning. My home room teacher is a rather large scary looking lady tabby, but that makes me happy, because I'm not the biggest girl in class. She does a roll call and we each mew as we hear our names.

8:30 ...
The bell rings again, and we all head to our first class. For me, it's "Mouse Chasing 101". Once we're all seated, our teacher shows us a movie on the proper techniques of mouse catching. It was interesting, until he gave us our homework assignment. We had to catch a mouse and bring it to class!! Yuck!!

9:30 ...
Thankfully, the bell rings again and we move on to our next class. For me, it's "The Art of Catnip". I knew I would like this one. Each of us was given a small pot of dirt. Then the teacher passed out some seeds and told us to plant them. As if it wasn't bad enough that we had to wait a long time for the catnip to grow, the rest of the class was spent listening to a long lecture on the dangers of catnip addiction!!! I almost fell asleep!!

10:30 ...
Yay - this time the bell rings for recess. I get to meet my friends outside and compare our mornings. None of us is quite as excited as we were before that first bell.

11:00 ...
Recess is over too soon! I check my schedule and see that my next class is gym. That ought to be fun. I see lots of balls and neat things to climb. I can't wait! I know that I've found my calling. I'm very good at playing - mewhehe Imagine my surprise when the gym teacher starts passing out these ugly costumes that she calls "gym suits". When she gets to me, she mumbles something about hoping she has one big enough!! So much for that "fun" class!!

Noon ...
This bell means it's lunchtime. Yay! The cafeteria smells SO good. I choose a tuna burger, with a side order of chicken wings and a large milkshake. After I eat all of that, I go back and get a great big piece of cheesecake. Maybe if I eat enough, even that extra large gym suit won't fit and I won't have to go to gym ever .... !!!

1:00 ...
Oh no ... it's that bell again. Lunchtime is over and I'm so full that I can barely move, but I have to go to dance class. I won't go into a lot of detail, but ... dance class was a disaster. I really needed a nap. It all boiled down to this. My dance teacher said that I dance like I have two left feet. My answer was that I DO have too left feet! I don't
think I'll get a very good grade - mewhehe

2:00 ...
The best bell of the day. School is over! All of the kitties, that were excited this morning, are dragging themselves out the front door, grumbling and moaning. I see my meowmie waiting for me and a find the energy to run to her! Meowmie asks me how my first day of school was and all I could say was, "How long before the next summer vacation?
