Okay next chapter! I guess it still isn't very good, but I'll get off script soon! (like when we get to Dancing Through Life and Popular, that kind of stuff)
"Settle down, now!" shouted Dr. Dillimond over the class, "I have read your most recent essays. And I am amazed to report the progress! Although, some of us still tend to favor form over content… Ms. Glinda."
Why is it that this Goat can't get my name right? I thought.
"It's GA-linda," I corrected.
"Excuse me… Glinda."
"I really don't see what the problem is. Every other professor seems to be able to pronounce my name," I said, still a little irritated that he can't simply say GA-linda.
"Maybe pronouncing your precious name isn't the sole purpose of Doctor Dillamond's life," Elphaba says, "Maybe he's not like every other professor. Maybe some of us are different."
Oh what an artichoke! Wait a minute…
"Oh! It seems the artichoke is steamed!" I exclaimed to the others.
"Class, class! Miss Elphaba has a point! As you know, I am the sole Animal on the faculty. The token Goat, as it were. But it wasn't always this way. Oh, dear students, how I wish you could have seen it as it once was. Where you could walk down the halls and see an antelope explicating a sonnet, a snow leopard solving an equation, a wildebeast waxing philosophic. Don't you see, dear students, how our dear Oz is becoming less and less… looks at Elphaba… colorful. Now, who can tell me what sent these events into motion?"
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, does this Goat ever stop with the Animals? I mean I know that a lot's going on with the Animals lately but this is ridiculous.
"From what I've heard, it all started with the great drought," Elphaba said raising her hand.
"Exactly," said the Goat, "Food grew scarce, people grew hungrier and angrier. And the question became 'Whom can we blame?' Can anyone tell me what is meant by the term 'Scapegoat'?" (know it all artichoke raised her hand) Someone besides Miss Elphaba? Ah yes, Miss Glinda..."
"It's GAlinda... with a GA," I corrected again, "I don't see why you can't just teach us history instead of always harping on the past."
I mean, History class is history, can't we just learn about things in the past?
"Well, perhaps these questions will enlighten you..." Dillmond says walking to the chalk board. He turns it over and there was a horribly ominous message on the back.
ANIMALS SHOULD BE SEEN AND NOT HEARD.
"Who is responsible for this? I'm waiting for answer... Very well, that will be all for today... You heard me, class dismissed!"
Yes! Out of History! I couldn't really stand being with that Goat any longer, he keeps on rambling!
Sorry it's so short! I'll try to make the next better! Need your reviews to get further though people!
