So, it's raining.
Have recently walked home from school - in the rain. Although the rain wasn't heavy it was the sort that gets in your eyes and (sorry to be shallow here) ruins your eye make-up. Please, for the love of God, tell me why we had a three day week this week? I mean, it's pointless, why don't they just add a full week onto either the winter term or the spring term. Because breakin up on a Wednesday and returning on a Wednesday is slightly annoying (and way too sudden for my liking). Also, returning just after new years eve does not do the school any favours. Everyone is sick and tired and just mope around like the world is going to end. It's not fun, believe me. i think everyone really needs this weekend to sleep off their blues and return to school content and alert.
See, my version of a good world is to have a balance of sad and happy. None of this suicidal sadness or anything but just some light sadness that can be lifted in a day or two. I know it's silly to think like that and a girl shouldn't dream of the impossoble but, hey, it's fun! I'm not a fan of people who are happy all the time (I can sometimes be one of those people, I stay happy for weeks on end but there is always a time when I just fall to the other end of the scale and become very sad - you may think that manic depression but it's just my personality, there is no genetic disorder in me, honest!) or people who are constantly sinking further into their depression. I like to help people solve problems. I'm here with advice whenever needed, however, I am not good in an emotional situation when sympathy is needed to help the other person, I stay well out of those occasions.
I am currently being called Stanly Standina by my fellow Tiger Girls (yeh, that includes Michael!) and am their crash mat for when they do not succeed! Lol. I love lunchtimes at school, they're so carefree and a riot. It so loud in the cloakrooms that you couldn't get more lost in such a small space. Most of the year 11s cram in there - hey, anything's better than the dining hall, right?! Lol, so yeh, my crazy school life is a blast. I'll be sad to see those people go, even if I don't talk to them I alway like the feeling that they're there with me. I am so not waking up early tomorrow. I mean i am normally a morning person, but this time I could just sleep for England, ya know. At the stage of tiredness I am currently in I don't feel like sleeping. English lessons about horses and "Ginger Guides" do not keep a girl active and happy to be alive. So, there's no surpise in telling you that I frequently fall asleep during these ever more interesting and captivating lessons that involve the seering bright light that emerges from several hundred computer monitors and the whirring of OHP. Yes, that is school life today, folks. Sad, this technology takes us further away from a happier time. It seems that nowadays the only thing one seems to care about is the latest Sony Ericsson mobile or how many songs they can squeeze onto their iPod in an effort to outshine the "cool kids". But that is off subjects. back to the ever more boringness of my lesson time. The only lesson where I truly feel stimulated is sociology class. Sometime i like geography but not like today when I get an E on my recent map skills exam. Not good, Elly.
This is turning into a long blog. I shall stop now and let you sleep, giggle, read, watch TV (sad people) or whatever you like to do on a Friday night in this bleak winter weather.
Love and all that shizz.
