End of Term

Well today was the last day of term one. Chamber lesson meant I couldn't go to stats *coughcough* but it went alright. And second period we had this interesting debate over the anti-smacking bill. I must say that the vast majority of the class was against it...well we all were with the exception of one person. There were some interesting points argued today, I would say that it's ridiculious. I don't know what will happen to NZ society if it goes through.

We got our marks back for the JFK trail as well! Wow that was really quick, I'm rather impressed with the time it takes the History department to mark assignments. Unlike some other departments *coughstatscough* and I got yet another M. Lovely...I guess I should be pleased...Ms Cotter seemed happy "You did exceptionally well" I believe were her words. But M...for someone hoping to do Law? I don't think they're going to care that I've never done it before. Meh. It's over and I can't exactly do much about it. Clearly it's not my forte.

Then assembly in the upper gym, fun fun. I got this certificate thingy for being present every day this term. Funny how on my interim report it says I've been away for 5 days. But oh well...yes I haven't gotten one of them since last year some time.

Recess...hmm well I was continuing the distribution of my chocolate which for some reason, didn't all disappear during the prefect meeting. And after I had passed them around my little circle at recess there were still 6 left. I then decided to go pay my duckling a visit and dropped off a chocolate to Ariana (don't hit me...) and Natalie Barnes (I was just being NICE).

I must admit I was a tad wary about entering a class full of 5th formers seeing as last time I did it, Yi Lien wasn't even there. But I sort of siddled past slowly and saw her head so I turned back and just waltzed in. It was kind of strange, I think I attracted a few eyes to say the least. I mean a 7th former just 'hanging out' with a bunch of 5th formers in their form class? Yeeeahh... I do have friends, I really do.

But I gave them chocolate so hopefully they will spread good word about me :) and yeah I couldn't be bothered walking back up so I just sat myself on a recently vacated seat and chatted away, effectively interrupting whatever they were talking about before.

And I talked to Ms Sturme about Schollarship Economics. It sounds possible for me and I do want to have a go at one, seeing as the chances of me sitting the English one are between 0 and 0. But she seems to think I have the ability to, I shall allow myself to be reassured by that.
And my duckling was in the next class, sorry I didn't say hi! I was a bit absorbed in my conversation.

Oh had a classics test which I finished rather early...and that is not a good thing I think. I messed up the names quite a bit so I actually ended up trying to avoid using them. I only mentioned the really obvious ones like Romulus and Caesar Julius/Augustus. Hehe...so I might not do tooooo well for that one.

I managed to catch Yi Lein slipping out of class quickly again and we went to her 'audition' for the production band. Meh, she had it in the bag before Ms Moller even saw her.

English 5th was pretty unproductive. We just talked about this portmanteau ...but I can't remember it (oops!). Then we were discussing quotations from King Lear, "Go thrust him out at gates, and let him smell his way to Dover." Ooohh terrible, evil daughter, Goneril. I also like "Might I but live to see thee in my touch, I'd say I had eyes again." Which is Gloucester who has just had his eyes gouged out earlier by Goneril (hence "smell his way to Dover"). Sounds like a wonderfully pleasant play doesn't it? Ah don't you just love Shakespeare.

Last period....was free. But I had to take my cello home so had to kill time until 4.30pm. On the last day of school...ain't I eager. So yeah, I went down to collect Jim with Yi Lein and we talked at the bus stop until her bus arrived, leaving me with half an hour left to kill. I practiced my chamber piece and disturbed Sam.

I must have looked really awesome to those St Pauls guys as I stood waiting for my parents...carring my bag, flute, folder and cello. Mmhm I can sense their admiration for me.

Well that was an unusually detailed account of my day. As you can see, my life is just so exciting but don't be too jealous now, I like to keep the number of stalkers to a minimum.

Have a really great Easter everyone!
