Today's Field Trip

Today, my grade went on a field trip. It wasn't fun.
We went to the Robert Crown Center For Health Education, which can most likely be the most disgusting place built for kids, other than BarneyLand or whatever. So we went by bus, which wasn't that bad. Then when we got there, a yellow and blue sign greeted us, "Health Education" in bubble letters. Bleh. This was bad enough already.
Now, we went in, and I teamed up with AJ (superhyper on here) who got a blue remote labeled "iRespond." How educational. Now anyway, we had to answer questions up on the huge TV screen, such as "Where does the baby live in the mother? (A) The stomach (B) The uterus or (C) Liver" and things.
So we did that, and a perky lady came in, showed us how she could fit her fist through a female skeleton's pubic area, and talked about (yay.) puberty. She talked, blah blah blah, I didn't listen. After an hour of that, she let us go.
So then we took a 'quick break,' about two minutes long. We saw a real skeleton (supposedly) and Audra asked me if it was real. I told her probably not, but she suggested that it was Robert Crown. We both cracked up and I cracked some jokes about the chances you take as a visitor.
We went back in and Miss Perky Lady talked about periods ("the bloody lining falling out of the birth canal"...), ovulation, etc etc, and touched some walls, making them light up like in a game show. Horrible. Then she happily explained the sperm cells and the egg cells, and this kid called Michael asked the most stupid and pointless questions; he obivously didn't get it.
I swear he's going to commit sucide or end up desperate for a wife or something as an adult. Anyway, back to the story.
So that was that, then Ms. Perk showed us real pictures of the kid in the mother's stomach through devolpement. Seriously, are we supposed to ooh and ahh at the wonderful blob? I didn't think so, so I went across the rules and whispered to AJ about a ton of things not related to reproduction.
Of course, the story has to get worse. And it did. The lady showed a baby being born. Ok, really. My teacher had nasuea from it. AJ turned all the colors of the rainbow twice. A delicate girl had to be removed from the room because she couldn't breath.
Then, horror of horrors, they had to show the father cutting the umblical cord, all happy that he could do something, then there was an ugly baby with tiny hands touching its mother's nose, like it was trying to be cute or something. Bleh. I hate teachers sometimes.
We rode back, everyone talking about this 'adventure.' Hideous.
