Seven days...
Almost seven days back at school. And so much has happened.
You'd think things would SLOWLY get back to normal. Nope, not at all. On the eve of the sixth day, I bring thee joyous news of the "typical routine" variety.
First day back. L-more (aka F-More to Machet) is already in a search-and-destroy mood.
Quote:
To Hattie - not in 13L : "And what are YOU doing in here?"
Hattie: "Erm.. I'm giving Lisa a mug..?"
GENERAL STUDIES! Yes, I'm still doing my beautiful doss subject. Special mention and hearts to the General Studies crew. All SEVEN of you. lol
We were reading an article, examining what kind of arguments it used. However, the topic of the article distracted us.
"The Two-bicle is being introduced."
Two-bicles, in case you couldnt tell from the oh-so-witty name, are in fact double toilets. Two toilets in one toilet. If you get what i mean? His 'n hers. Except, only in the female toilets.
Apparently, its meant to reflect the "values" that the common male urinal upholds. The chance for friends to discuss topical issues whilst "spending a penny".
Quote the GSC (like GLC but better. And all girls. And not rappers.):
"Lady Urinals? What.. like a big... trough?"
"But isn't it meant to stick on the wall? So you have to like..."
".. Straddle it..?"
"But you have to take your pants down... does that like ... stick out then?"
"Even men have a bit of privacy! Its unwritten law that you look at the wall, not at each other's "private items"!"
ANYWAY!
Today in Comms.
We were discussing 1984 and how hard it was to read 65 pages in one evening.
Spalfa: "I SWEAR I read like 40 pages and -"
*class hushes as L-More arrives*
Spalfa unaware, continues: "-like.. fell asleep!"
*silent gasp of horror.* The book is what L-More insists "essential reading for a good LIBERAL education"
Though, if you consider that plus:
a) She tells us exactly what we should think of the book.
b) What its meant to represent to us.
c) How great the book is.
d) How many pages we should read
Obviously, those that DO have an idea of 1984 will find that, quite ironic non?
I knew it! L-MORE IS WORKING FOR THE THOUGHT POLICE!
It's quite annoying when we ACTUALLY read the allotted amount of pages (usually fairly impossible) and then - THEN she decides to spend the lesson reading the book TO us.
Usually, lessons like this lead to more than 2 minutes of hate if you get what I mean. Ha! My wit is extending literarily now!
Anyway! That's all I can remember for now. But now bad for the first week back.
Already I'm up to my elbows in work and meetings. And Costa's Chocolate Truffle Cake. Well not up to my elbows in cake. Though...... *hmm*
Mmmm cake.

And we're BACK!
Summers out for the season and what do you know - we're back to school.
Like Birchy says, I feel ambidextrous. Part of me feels happy we're going back. It'll be good to see friends (again, again), check out how many frees we have (I wonder if i will have anymore special Tuesdays?) and basically just see the new year 7's settling into their new habitat.
But then there's the sad part. The part that really does not want to have to get up at half six in the morning in order to catch the bus at twenty past 7. Most of you are still asleep at 7:20 AM!
I can almost predict it. I'm gonna walk onto the bus with The Canadian. Jameses, Elsha et al will already be on the bus, most likely asleep. Ooh, diverting for one minute - HOW SQUASHED IS MY BUSS PASS PICTURE?! My face is so wide, i look like I'v been hit in the face with a frying pan and rolled out! Mmm.. frying pan.
But yes, like i stated before, the first day is the second best, after the last. I mean, its just the feel of starting routine again. And saying hello to Autumn and more importantly - CHRISTMAS.
Lol jk, but I wonder if we will have snow actually at Christmas this year?
Again, i am going off topic.
Has anyone else noticed the number of new OXFORD MATHS SETS at the start of term? In my entire life i have owned four. All of which i lost. And never really used either. Hum...
I love new stationary. The writer in me is dying to say new stationary is almost like a pair of new shoes, just waiting to be walked in and worn out.
But I wont.
Instead I shall leave you now - as I must sort out my stuff. Last minute tut tut.
xXx
PS- English Lit/Lang-ers - Has anyone ACTUALLY done the holiday assignment and read Surfacing yet? I thought I was going to drop it, still not sure, so haven't.
Thats my excuse for now at least.
Oh, and the same for Comms and 1984.

I wonder what this could be about...
Lol, well here it is - the report on what REALLY happened last night.
First of all I have to say - I am DYING here. InDelirium had a practice today and it started at 9. AM. I completely SLEPT through my alarm and woke to Spangus who'd texted to say he'd be a little bit late. Luckily I'd forgotten to switch my mobly off otherwise I wouldn't have woken up til the bell rang and ShyamBlam and DBD would have had to have been let in by Sleeping Beauty minus the Beauty replaced with Beast. (Lol Sleeping Beast, oh i AM clever.)
Anyways, my digi pictures from last night are being downloaded and will be put up on The Orange Locker when I have the time - and the storage space - (anyone want to lend me their storage space as I have zilch. zero. none. nein. hello.) Also, if you have any pics, post them, email them - you know the drill. In fact, I've got some very interesting pictures of Spangus doing the Macarena and a few incriminating pictures of CERTAIN people doing CERTAIN things AHEM.
And we managed to raise the grand total of £82 which is luckily, enough to pay the DJ (who I'm told was very good) Thank you to everyone that donated and/or brought things for me to eat/drink.
Last night was great fun. I was pleasantly surprised to see the number of Pirates and Cowboys/girls but the spectrum consisted of:
Lol, and it WASN'T crashed by townies this time and nothing to my knowledge got stolen, no fire alarms were set off and no one ate my food. (But I ate theirs! Mwahaa) So... its all good :)
Special mentions on the costume front goes to Josh (the man) who went from "Zoe, I cant promise a costume" to "Captain Joshbeard - Realistic looking Pirate of the Seven Seas" and of course - HOSKINS and GINA (lol) who came as Andy and Lou from LB. Pictures WILL be put up of them!
Gosh, (gosh?!) that's all i can remember - oh wait - just got a text from Dan R - thanking me for the party - what a polite boy. Unfortunately, no Mr Bond, you can not spell and "Zowe" (with funny accent on the E) was a ... CLOSE... shot. But no. Sorry you have not won this time. Lol.
But yes - generally a big Zoe-esque whoop and hug for you all. It was "jokes" and it was great to see you all again. Get the gossip on those copulating couples from me on Monday ;)
Lol hope you all had a great summer and I'm strangely looking forward to seeing you all again. As Spangus said today "The first day is the second best day after the last day"
I'll probably blog sooner. Maybe. I have another driving lesson tomoro you see...

Last night was great fun. I was pleasantly surprised to see the number of Pirates and Cowboys/girls but the spectrum consisted of:
- (Miner) Matt the Mechanic
- Indiana Jones (x2)
- Vicar
- A Smart Tree (Jameses in a suit with "SMART TREE" written on him)
- Charlies Angels
- Fairy
- Evil Twin of above Fairy (part ladybird)
- Action Man
- Soldier
- Daisy Duke
- Surfers
- Zoo Keeper
- Bond
- Chav (Aka Frisky Jim looking almost normal)
Plus many more. Oh and Joe - in black - thus, Joe Black. (love the film)
And of course myself as the Tomb Raider, though my favourite quote has to be from Austin:"Oz, what am i?"
"Erm... er... EXPLORER GIRL!"
"No."
"Sorry. Erm mountain..thing..person?"
"Not helping."
"Sorry."
