I am teaching my classmates how to gamble tomorrow.

Hehehe, and you thought gambling was not aloud in school.

That's because it isn't, however my very amazing and open-minded history teacher has given me permission to teach the kids in my class about the Jewish holiday, Chanukkah. I forget if I have mentioned it to anyone on the site, but my father is Jewish, and though I personally choose not to follow that path (I am Pagan, which doesn't mean which, but literally means, Not Christian), I still take pride in my Jewish roots. Back onto gambling with my highschool classmates though XD!

My history teacher has given me permission to teach them about the holiday, and I plan on bringing the old menorah (like a candle holder, but with nine holders), along with chocolate gilts and toy dradles (dray-dels). The last two things is where I teach them to gamble ! There are four sides to a dradle, and you spin it on a table. If it lands on Gimel, you take all the golden coins, gilts, or in our cause, chocolate gilts in golden wrappers, from the pile. If you land on Shin, you put one in. Land on Hay, and you take all the coins. Land on Nun, and you do nothing. You continue to do this until someone has all the coins, and the other people no longer have their coins.

So yes, I am happy to say I am teaching my classmates in history class to gamble like Jews.

Remind me never to gamble against you. I'll be broke by the end of it.

But yeah, I do tend to get lucky in this game, as everytime I played this with my siblings, I managed to wipe them clean of chocolate coins. A delicious victory, if I say so myself.
