How Was Your Day? High Five

[Kim]

Ooo very cool I do drama and english language

And I do the other 2 out of those 4 lol! Tip: When your English Literature teacher tells you you can write your name in the book what she really means is you can if it doesn't have a number in it!

Um... What? Haha.

In other news: I'm starting the Justin Guarini revolution.

My teacher gave some books out just before Christmas and put them on text receipts (so they had to be numbered) because she said it wouldn't be fair to ask us for the money for the books when we had Christmas presents to buy etc. I gave in the money just after Christmas and she said I could write my name in the book and that she'd throw the text receipts away. I did and today she asks me if I've written in it and says that the book I wrote in wasn’t from the right set and that she’ll have to number a book from the other set to replace it now.

I've got my best friend upstairs sleeping (cause her dad was smoking hash and it's made her ill) and i am seriously so worried about her meant to be doing homework for tomorrow but i can't concentrate at all. My english teacher is going to kill me tomorrow but i don't care. I just want to cry and waterloo road isn't helping at all either.

Tell me about it, I think i would have cried if the woman had not have come on after and said "if you have been affected by any of the issues in tonights programme" then that made me laugh

My house is freezing tonight its like the artic!

I know i was like do you have to use a fake mourning voice? no you don't grrr!

I have too much work too. I hate how they don't give you much work in some of the earlier parts of the year and then stress us out having to cram it all in.

What I have never understood is why we get the bulk of the work and exams now. Why not spread the work out a bit, have half the assignments and exams in the autumn term and the rest when the Spring term starts.

Surely it would make it easier on teachers/lecturers who won't have 70-odd 7000 and 2500 word essays to mark, 70 manuscripts per exam etc. Why stress us all out when they could make it much easier?

I've almost finished packing and tidying my room so I'm going to start on my assignment now. I work best at this time of night. I did buy a ticket for tonight (Coolio - gangster's paradise - is playing) but I really can't be bothered to go. I'll only end up getting smashed, going to bed at 6am and missing lectures and trains tomorrow. Plus I can do my work in peace and quiet, a rarity in this flat.

Thank you!
I'll be doing Drama, English Literature, English Language and Psychology

Minus the English language and thats what im doing and i LOVE them all - actually currently hating english, and im in my drama teacher's bad books dues to the one paragraphed essay i gave her ahhh well! Oh and ive my psychology assignment in for tomorrow and ive not even done half of it yet - there is NOT enough time in the day i swear, however my day was taken up mainly by watching buffy season 2 NEW FAV!
Well done by the way Rawnie

On the new course we don't have a Psychology assignment, we get Individual Differences at AS instead of A2 I think it is. We just get a teacher who, when we did Research Methods, set a report to be written in one night

I don't think I will be in my Economics teacher's good books tomorrow; had a go slow in the lesson and still haven't done the work haha! And I handed in a short piece of homework and she said my standards were slipping lol!

ive only just got up! so much for me spending the whole day working!

I missed my first lecture this morning. This afternoon's two hour lecture lasted 45mins I really don't know how universities get away with charging so much for tuition fees for doing so little.

It means I get to go home earlier than I was going to. I'm feeling very short changed at the moment

I really don't know how universities get away with charging so much for tuition fees for doing so little.

i know, ive been thinking that too, the lecturers hardly do anything yet still moan!

[Rawnie]

I'm very happy today
I emailed my dad asking him if he would be able to buy me a ticket to T In The Park and I could pay him back. I didn't expect him to say yes, but he did! I'm most excited about seeing Lily Allen and The Specials. Like, I can't put into words how excited I am about it... And it will be a nice reward after all the exams
