Journal #10

So.  I think that if you bring Brach's Star Brites Mints, it will just distract the class.  We have enough difficulty as it is attempting to stay on task.  Imagine adding in food to the equation.  Not only  would we have the debate of whose blog convinced you to bring them (because we would have to find out, even if we had to duct tape you to the wall, we would find out one way or another), but you would also have to deal with the wrappers.  Now let me tell you all the problems with the wrappers.  First off, they are LOUD.  You have to open them, and unless you are a skilled candy-wrapper-opener, you are going to make noise.  It's not just one of though, it's ALL of us making noise continuously for like three minutes.  Then you would have those people who wait until the middle and end of class to open there's and make more noise!  So not only are the noise with which the wrapper makes distracting, but also the disposal of the wrapper!  Once you eat the candy with in, you have to throw it away!  People would be getting in and out of their seats the entire time!  That's just annoying!  There would of course be some of those kids who would not even throw them away at all, too!  They, for what ever reason, think that their mother follows them around and just picks up everything for them!  So that would leave clean up for you Mr. Langley!  I'm not even sure which kind of mints these are.  I really really really like the ones they gave us during ISATS.  Those straight up melted in your mouth.  Now if it's the hard mints, yuck.  Those taste decent for about the first half, but then they just leave a bad taste in your mouth.  In summary, I think bringing in mints would be distracting because we would have to spend time figuring out why you brought them and the wrapper's would cause ruckus and such.  DO NOT DO IT.
