???? ?? - Day ????????

It’s quiet this morning.

Not too quiet.

But it’s quiet.

Henry walks in.

Henry: One day more. Another day, another destiny. This never-ending road to calvary. These men who seem to know my crime will surely come a second time, one day more.

Scott walks in, followed by Olivia.

Scott: I did not live until today. How can I live when we are parted?
Henry: One day more.
Scott and Olivia: Tomorrow you’ll be worlds away. And yet, with you, my world has started.

Hannah walks in.

Hannah: One more day all on my own.
Scott and Olivia: Will we ever meet again?
Hannah: One more day with him not caring.
Scott and Olivia: I was born to be with you.
Hannah: What a life I might have known!
Scott and Olivia: And I swear I will be true.
Hannah: But he never saw me there.

Matt walks in.

Matt: One more day before the storm!
Scott: Do I follow where she goes?
Matt: At the barricades of freedom!
Scott: Shall I join my brothers there?
Matt: When our ranks begin to form…
Scott: Do I stay, and do I dare?
Matt: Will you take your place with me?

All: The time is now, the day is here!

Henry: One day more!

Michelle: One day more till revolution, we will nip it in the bud! We’ll be ready for these schoolboys, they will wet themselves with blood.

Henry: One day more!

Dazed and Kendria: Watch 'em run amuck, catch 'em as they fall, never know your luck when there's a free for all, here a little `dip', there a little `touch', most of them are goners so they won't miss much!

All: One day to a new beginning, raise the flag of freedom high. Every man will be a king, every man will be a king. There’s a new world for the winning, there’s a new world to be won. Do you hear the people sing?

Scott: My place is here, I fight with you!

Henry: One day more!
Scott and Olivia: I did not live until today.
Hannah: One more day all on my own.
Scott and Olivia: How can I live when we are parted?
Michelle: I will join these people's heroes, I will follow where they go. I will learn their little secrets, I will know the things they know.

Henry: One day more!
Scott and Olivia: Tomorrow you’ll be worlds away.
Hannah: What a life I might have known!
Scott and Olivia: And yet with you my world has started.
Michelle: One day more till revolution, we will nip it in the bud! We’ll be ready for these schoolboys…
Dazed and Kendria: Watch 'em run amuck, catch 'em as they fall, never know your luck when there's a free for all.

Henry: Tomorrow we’ll be far away, tomorrow is the judgment day.

All: Tomorrow we’ll discover what our G-d in heaven has in store! One more dawn, one more day…


It’s quiet this morning.

I just got here a second ago. Jacob got here a second later. The lights are on. We’re basically the only ones here.

Marty gets up to go get a bagel. The “One Day More” YouTube video Jacob is watching ends. Grace enters, but leaves. Kelsey and Kate enter, try to leave, and are stopped by Marty. JV enters.

Marty: We can’t blog today. The blog will just suck. No one here has anything worthwhile to say.
Jacob: Yeah, that’s true.
Marty: Maybe it’ll be this way for a while.

Kelsey sings along to “Only the Good Die Young” by Billy Joel.

Marty: Maybe it’ll be this way for a while.

For a while.

A while.

In a while.

In a while we’ll be back here.

In a while we might not all remember each other.

In a while people can seem a bit different.

But I still remember the last three words he said.

: …one day more.

May 19 - Day 14???????

7:42 A.M. – Matt, Scott, Preston, Yaffe, JV Dylan, and Marty are sitting around the table. Olivia arrives. Henry “left and said he’d be back in a while.”

Scott: Who’s running for student council?
Marty: [lists the people]
Scott: I heard James is getting back there. (To Olivia) What’s with the gray?
Olivia: I don’t know. It was a shirt in my closet, and I put it on.
Marty: What happened yesterday?
JV Dylan: Henry kept laughing at me yesterday.
Marty: Good.
Scott: Whatcha readin’ Olivia?
Olivia: It’s an article on testing of mice that I have to read for Bioethics.
Scott: Sounds boring.
Olivia: [says something trying to prove that it isn’t but ends up proving that it is]
JV Dylan: Do you know Saunders?
Marty: Ms. Saunders?
JV Dylan: No.
Marty: No action has happened this morning. Like no one has done anything.
Matt returns. Michelle spreads cream cheese. Marty leaves to go get a bagel. Marty returns. Marty and Jacob meet at the bagels to plan the surprise. Isaac enters, insults JV Dylan. He doesn’t actually though.

Marty: Nothing has happened this blog at all. It really sucks.
JV Dylan: Marty, why can’t I help with you and Brandon?
Marty: Who’s Brandon?
Matt Bainum: Cords…you look really…hot today.
Cords: No, it’s nice.
Scott: Cords you look really nice today.
Matt Bainum: Cords get ready for math today, I’m just gonna hit on you the whole time.

Henry’s back!

Jacob: Why are there so many guests here?
Henry: It’s the…environmental conference?

Henry leaves.

Marty: [over crowd] Is this it? Is this how the bagels ends?
Scott: This is how it ends, Marty. Until tomorrow.
Marty: No but like, is this how From the Bagels ends?

But no one answers him.

Perhaps we will meet again someday.

May 17 - Day 13??????

7:43 A.M. – It’s Marty. I’m on the bus. I was too tired to get up earlier but hopefully I’ll make it to the bagels soon. It’s kind of awkward to type with my computer on my backpack like this. I just it down. It’ll get wet now (the floor of the bus is wet) but that’s alright. Anyway, I’m here with TurĂ© and I think his sister. There’s also a pretty hot girl sitting across from me. Maybe. I don’t know, she’s ok. Now I just lowered the screen so that no one sees what I’m typing because that would be kind of awkward. Except thtat now I can’t really see what I’m typing. It would be a miracle if I still typedsds eaxaadtly whatt I waaanted toop. People keep requesting all the stops. It sucks. I just want to get to the bagels already.

Now I’m in Cleveland Park. Shoutout to the city of Cleveland, Ohio. It’s in Ohio, right? For some reason I doubted my self for an instant. Oh well. I gotta run now. It’s my stop. B-r-b.

7:57 A.M. – I made it! Sitting around the usual table are the usual people, plus I’m, Isaac Mudge, and Liar.

Scott: Now! NOW!
Henry: No Javier. Javier is so good.
Liar: Go! No, kid, no. That’s just not smart.
Scott: Now!
Liar: No, now.
Scott: Oh, good call Tessa.

Grace walks in flirtatiously, showing off all her curves.

Scott: Hey Grace, would you hu with JV?
There is no response.

Marty spills lemonade on his computer. Henry only lends him a small piece of napkin.

Scott: BUDDY!!!!! Why didn’t you do it?
Champ: LET’s GOOOOOO
Champ just passed the next level of bloons 2.

Matt arrives.

Matt: (mumbling) There’s too many people.

Matt goes to get a bagel. JV Dylan is stuffing a bagel into his face disgustingly. The bagels seem quiet today. John is looking down.

Scott: Everyone’s wearing horizontal stripes today.
Claire: Classic use of everyone.
Henry and Scott: Misuse!
Claire: Oh…sorry.
Bat’s gonna be late. Plah walks in, I haven’t turned around, but I recognize her voice.

Michelle, Liar, Katie Case, Nat Yaz, Muffinz are all wearing horizontal stripes.

Til next time.

--Marty, Scott, and Henry

Henry: Nope. You spelled "you're" wrong.
Marty: I'll fix it later.
Somebody: And Jai was like...
Marty: Wait let me rephrase it - do you ever feel like everyone is just lying to you?
Henry: What? No.
Somebody: I spent like 30 minutes blowdrying my hair this morning!! I hope Kelsey likes it :)
Kendria: Did not study for bioethicssssss
Henry: Bioethics sucks!
Marty: I really hope Ms. Lipton doesn't read this blog.

Shoutout to Ms. Lipton, if she is reading this. Also, congratulations to Sam Mulroy for winning the ivy league championship.

Henry: And then congratulate Julia Mulroy on being Sam Mulroy's brother.

Everyone: Sister!
Henry: That's what I meant.
Scott: Olivia Abrecht, hottest girl in the league.

Kelsey comes back to get tea with Kate... suspicious.

Scott: Because at that point I was like actually paying attention.
Matt: He just had this big smile on his face.
Scott: And then I'm was being a beesh.
I'm: I'm Danny I'm Danny I'm Danny I'm Danny I'm Danny
Marty: Ughhh you guys have soooo many pizza lunches.
Michelle: It's not that many!! (sassily)
Scott: All hail! You got a shoutout. (to Mulroy)

Abby: Physics.

Everybody has a good laugh.

Wimmer: WHERE THE HELL IS JACOB???

Petey enters...almost. JV Dylan enters.

Scott: How did you play yesterday?
JV Dylan: Awful. I struck out like twice.
Scott: That's ok JV I struck out too.

Marty spills sugar on his computer and proceeds to try and get it off by hitting the keyshfdojdsfojdsfjosdjoifsdoifoijsdfjoisdiofjweohgwpieg;lgkdlgkhjpuy;kjyt;khytkh

Marty: Man, you know how when people do like those excited posts or stuff when they type lots of random letters?

April 1, 2011 - Day 10???

Hannah: HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOTT!!! FOLLOW HIM @RAVINATOR11

Hannah: I had this awesome dream about Henry last night. So, Henry wanted to get some exercise so he went for a run, and I was driving a pace car in this race, so he asked me to drive around until he got tired and then he would get in my car and we would go to get dinner or something.
It's about 7:50. Kendria, Henry, Marty, Scott, Danny, and Matt are place around the table, in hat order. Happy Birthday to Scott, Drew, and JV Dylan's sister.

Kendria: I'm thinking about buying a lottery ticket.
Matt: He's so interested in this.
JV Dylan: Who is?
Matt: Jai. Solid contribution to the conversation, JV Dylan.
Scott: Is that the disgusting cream cheese?
JV Dylan: No it's actually good.
Marty: Yeah, I like that one.
Dazed: Yeah.
Scott: It sucks.
Marty: You said it sucks, right?
Scott: Um...yeah.
Kendria: Have you seen this show Hole in the Wall?
Marty: Kendria, you've been making some solid contributions to the conversation this morning.
Scott: Kendria and JV Dylan.

Lax is discussed. I'm may come to Scott's game.

Dazed is spreading butter on a bagel.
Marty: Dazed, is that sanitary?
Dazed: What? I don't get it.

Henry sees the ten-minutes-late time on the computer.
Henry: Oh my gosh!
Marty: It's fake! It's fake!
Matt: What did it say?
Henry: 8:08.
Matt: That' s not like that big of a deal.

Jacob does not walk in.

Henry: I'm gonna leave a little early today. In a while.

Wiley takes Henry's seat. The bagels are crowded today.

March 31, 2011 - Day 9??

In today’s episode, the role of JACOB will be played by Danny Ryan.

It’s 7:45. The bagels are relatively crowded. Michelle was sitting in my seat, but she moved over to make room for me. She moved away from Henry, of course. A MR. FORMICA can be spotted in the top left corner of the room if one looks carefully enough.

Olivia walks in.
Marty: Scott, say something, quickly!
Scott: Olivia. Lookin’ hot.

JV Dylan appears.
Marty: JV Dylan! Standing O, standing O.
Wimmer: Naw…

No one agrees with Marty and no one gives JV Dylan a standing O. Not even Marty.

The bloggers begin discussing Rashida Jones and how lots of people we know met her last night.

JV Dylan got a double yesterday! Congrats JV Dylan. Everyone should congratulate him by posting on his Facebook wall.

The Liar walks in.
Scott: Liar!
Henry: Hey, liar!
JV Dylan: Did you guys win your game?
JV Dylan: What was the score?
JV Dylan: We lost 11 to 9.
Matt: Thanks, JV Dylan.

Grey and Dazed come to the Bagels.
Scott: Oh, Dylan.
Grey: Oh my god. Math yesterday.

Johnny Korobkin walks in?
Marty: He wasn’t there.

I haven’t written anything in like 20 minutes. I am completely lost here. Something about Heilman. And Bitch School.

Shoutout to Cydney from Matt.

Henry: 2 minutes til Envi Sci.
Scott: Time for Envi Sci?
Herny: 2 minutes til time for Envi Sci.
Matt: It’s a block oh…fuck.

HORIZONTAL STRIPES!

Henry: 1, 2, 3, 4! (Marty, Olivia, Michelle, The Liar)
Scott: You don’t see vertical stripes too often.

They leave for Envi Sci.

--M.S. and S.B.

March 30, 2011 - Day 8?

Marty puts a book on the table: In My Hands by Irene Gut Opdyke. Opdyke. That's a badass name.

Matt: The bagels look so good today.
Scott: Write that down.
Henry: Scott, we can't have any of this.
Scott: I'm gonna get some tea.

It's 7:40. Henry, Matt, Scott, Marty, Michmac, and Kendria are sitting around their usual table. Except that Kendria doesn't usually sit there. I don't know. I don't come here that often anymore.

Henry will not give Kendria his iPod.
Henry: No!
Kendria: You think you're funny, but you're not.
Scott: Bakingtons!
Marty: Ok, I'm gonna get a bagel and some tea.
Henry: Lemon Lane? Do they still have Lemon Lane?
Marty: No.

While Marty leaves, Scott begins to blog
.
Kendria: I <3 Mac Miller.

Let's take a look at the outfits today. Matt's is pretty good. Henry, a little too casual. Michelle, badly dressed. Kendria, not great.

Matt: Dylan!
Scott: JV DYLAN????????

Dylan is wearing an oakley sweatshirt, not very well dressed.

Scott: Dazed!
Henry: Oh, lookin' dazed!
Marty: Dazed.

JV Dylan discusses his past life as a pitcher.

Scott: Hey look, Hannah's coming.
Kendria: She's back from Sanibel.
Scott: Hello!
Hannah: Hello!
Henry: Hello!
Hannah: Hello!

They introduce JV Dylan to Hannah
.
Henry: Two apples!
Hannah: One for lunch.
Scott: Dylan, how many bitches since yesterday.
JV Dylan: I'm not answering that question.
Scott: 8?
Henry: I heard 8.
Scott: I'm gonna tweet that later.

LOOK OUT FOR SCOTT'S TWEET! (Follow me on twitter @ravinator11)

Marty: So, has anyone had any good dreams lately?
Henry: Oh my gosh, I did! So, I think it was - I don't know what school trip, but it was like a school trip, and Ms. Glines and Coach Williams - Scott:
Olivia walks in flirtatiously, showing off all her curves.
Henry: At this time, I'd like to give a shout out to Johnny Korobkin. So then, we were at a restaurant having lunch, and Sideways came on the radio, and all the Alpha Males started singing their parts, and all the waiters and staff loved it, and told us to sing another song, and we sang like a T-Pain song or something and they were all rocking out, and then we sang Keep Your Head Up, and Coach Williams and Ms. Glines came out and made a dance for it and I remember Coach Williams going like this (He demonstrates) - it was so funny.
Scott: Olivia, you look nice today.
Olivia: Thanks.
Henry: Ooh, I agree.
Hannah: She said flirtatiously.
Matt: Look at they way she's eating that bagel.

Henry makes a noise with his mouth.

Michelle: Stop!

The loiterers enter. Surprisingly, they don't loiter.
Matt: Don't loiter.
Henry: And don't lie!

Matt looks like he really wants to sit next to Olivia.

Hannah: I like the new addition of Dylan. He adds a lot to the conversation.

Scott and Henry shake their fists at the loiterers. Will enters. Claire enters to boos. Zach enters to a standing O, but fails to give a speech. The bagelers debate J Crew vs. Crate and Barrel. Johnny shows up in the hallway and everyone yells for him. Scott leaves to get him, but returns without him.
Scott: He was like, I can't do it, I can't handle the pressure.
Henry: Noooooo!

Nobody leaves.


Shoutout to Sam Mulroy, if he is reading this.

Henry: He's probably not reading this.
Scott: He definitely read it last time.
Claire: Scott, I think the consensus is Crate and Barrel.
Marty: Claire, shut up, you're wrong.

JV Dylan gives Golden a standing O. FOLLOW GOLDEN @PRETTYLILTHANG

Scott: I think it's that.

Jordana enters to boos. JV Dylan leaves.
Marty: Well.
Henry: Time for Envi Sci.
Marty: Is it time for Envi Sci?
Scott: Yup.

And so it begins. Again. --Marty and Scott
