???? ?? - 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
