A Great Day For Freedom

It's a Pink Floyd song. I use it in context for the fact that we are finally free of exams. That out of the way? OK. Soon, I shall get back up and I will be able to post earlier. This post, however, this post is late. ...I'm running out of things to say in this first paragraph. You know what, let's just skip to what I actually did in the day, shall we?

Period 1 was Maths, which was rather strange, as no teacher showed up to two classes. So our class went into A2's class (Eric's, Kevin's and Shafi's), and did completely random things. How random? Does Tri putting 'Pokemon Evolution' up on the whiteboard and then drawing pictures of the Geodude evolutionary line count? (The answer is yes.). Eventually, though, their teacher got to class, and we went to a spare room that was open next door, and did even more random things, like pretend to shoot things with a broken chair leg and draw the hangman evolutionary line (as in, every time you get a letter wrong, you add something to the hangman.). And then added puns, such as 'Quit while you're a head' to one with just a head, and 'Need a hand?' to one with only one arm (most of that was me. I love puns.). Faulds did get to the class in time, though, and we got our marks back. I got 74/80, which is pretty good. Mango got a bit less. Only because he ran out of time, though. I originally got 73, but they didn't mark a question correctly. Then, it was Drama, and Kolodziej officially gave out the marks. 3 other people got 40/40 (besides me. I'm sorry, I just enjoy mentioning that.), including Cam. We exchanged a high five at that point, with good cause, I believe. We also did some more of the plays, and prepared for a new one that we will do on Monday. Soon, anyway. At Recess, Cam and I went to the food tech rooms, as Eric and Shafi had made too much beef stroganoff in class. Yes, their minor is cooking. One time, they made chocolate brownies. I had much beef strog. Lots of noodles. I love to eat.

Period 3 was Commerce, and Kearney was away. So we had a sub, who I think was Spies. For the class, I pretty much just read, though I did do some questions from the textbook. I also talked to people about electives, and I came across something rather freaky. Jenny Tran (the one in my Commerce class) has the same electives as me: Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Legal Studies, Advanced English and Maths offline. It was rather strange. Period 4 was Science, and Robson was finally back. In the class, we talked about the difference between mass and weight, and other stuff pertaining to gravity. It was pretty interesting, and I learnt stuff I didn't know. Lunch was talking, as usual.

Period 5 was English, and we got back the multiple choice and short answer questions for the Trial School Certificate. I got 50/60, and I think I did well. There were a few questions that were, let's say, contentious, as most of the class had one answer for a multiple choice (even Lana), and the real answer was something else entirely. It didn't make all that much sense. It was strange. Anyway. I'm sure there will be questions like that in the actual School Certificate, so, might as well get used to it, I suppose. Period 6 was History, which was actually Geography, as we have apparently fell behind. All the classes have. I'm not entirely sure how, considering we're supposed to have the same amount of History and Geography lessons (and, indeed, it is equal in the cycle), but we did. When the bell went, we went to the local shops, where I saw Jessie at the shops. Long story short, she did exactly what she did last time. See this post for details; I've also put it in labels. Anyway. I then went home, and blogged and played some Battlefield Heroes.

Comments now, two from presumably the same person, who I'm going to guess is Shafi:
*Anon: You can be a part, I've got nothing against it. The more the merrier! And your story seems a bit similar to mine. Maybe. I think the comment about 'The Five Greatest Warriors' goes without saying.
*Anon: Sorry Shafi, Lana asked first. You can read it after her though.

And that was my day. I'd apologise about the late post, but I'd be doing it for a while. Just appreciate I'm trying and move on. I'm thinking that when I get back to schedule, I'll do a list. But not until then (so, not for a while, at this rate). Anyway.

Bring on the weekend,

A Totally Awesome Friday

Yes, I could spend 15 minutes on a title, trying to come up with some clever play on words and end up doing yet another alliterative title and complaining about it. Or, alternatively, I could just put it right out there and say exactly what I thought of today: totally awesome. That's not to say today was perfect, though: There was some bad things, which I will eventually get to. Anyway, let's get to my Friday.

Before school, I got into my mufti clothes (yeah, it's another mufti day), and set off. Period 1 was English, in which Hancock got back (though where he went is still a mystery), and we talked about the work from yesterday. He explained what the cartoons from yesterday meant (though the one nobody could figure out only sorta makes sense), and we also looked at other ones. Period 2 was Maths, which was yet more work on trigonometry, only this time applying it to circles instead of triangles. Apparently we are now supposed to completely disregard everything we know about trigonometry and triangles. Anyway. It was then Assembly, which was way, way too long. Although I did get a High Distinction award for the Science comp, so there's that. Recess was 31.

Period 3 was Drama. The room was full of stuff for the Country fair tomorrow, so we just went to the grassy bit outside the hall, near the basketball courts, and read from that book with Greek plays in it again. The play is actually starting to get more dramatic, although it's sort of let down as there is a preface to the play we're reading that gives away the whole plot. Oops. Period 4 was Commerce, in which we talked about unemployment and all the problems that can come with it, such as depression and loss of income (Captain Obvious to the rescue!). Some seniors also came in to show the girls ideas for new school dresses. We got out of work. Everybody wins. Lunch was 31.

Periods 5 and 6 were PE, and we were playing a class-wide game of Ultimate (the frisbee game. Or, rather, flying disc. Whatever.). And I was one of the most, let's say, avid players, but fairly uncoordinated. I mean, I couldn't get to the frisbee, and I was having major trouble catching and defending. This all came to a head (rather literally, in fact) when I went for the frisbee. I looked up, and saw where it would come down, so I put my head down and sprinted as fast as I could. I looked up at the exact wrong time. *thud!* I suddenly felt an inordinate amount of pain in my nose, where most of the impact went, and in my mouth, where my braces had been pushed against my lips and I had bitten my tongue. I had run into somebody's side at full pelt. That somebody was possibly the worst person I could have run into: none other than Ebony. She had to go off the field, whereas I staggered around the field in a partial daze. When I had recovered, I gingerly started getting back into play. And later, I went for it again. I ran into Jordan. Standing up, both of us, but my legs were spread and his weren't. I was rammed where no boy likes to be rammed. But it all paid off maybe 10 minutes later, as I was the first person to score, though I fell over while doing it. By the end of the period, I was tired as all hell.

But it really paid off later. We were up at the shops, and I came across an old friend of mine, Jessie. And we talked for a bit, but she had to be off at around 3:30. I was considering not putting this next bit in my blog, on account of it may be considered bragging or lame or whatever. But you know what? It's my blog, and I am putting this in here. She is apparently a very affectionate person, and it seems she likes to kiss people goodbye (on the cheek). She was saying goodbye to me. Don't take a genius to work out what happened. I did it as well. First time that's happened too. I am very pleased with myself. When I got home, I played Battlefield Heroes with John over Skype for many hours, and as such I didn't get to blog. So here I am.

To comments, now, 9 from I'm guessing one person. Feel free to correct me though.
*Shafi (x9): LOL. You clicked the link. That was epic. In answer to your other questions: The book is on hiatus, I think you were the Anonymous Aeroplane, I'm not going to do the talent quest, and long posts are not boring.

And that was my day. I know, I know, after finally getting back on schedule, I toss up a late post. So I wanted a day off. Ah well. My blog, my rules. And I get to break them. Anyway. Expect a fairly long post tomorrow: It's the HAHS Country Fair, so it will be a longer post than if I spent the day just doing nothing at home all day.

I kissed a girl, and I liked it,
