We break up,
We break up,
We don’t care if school blows up –
No more English, no more French
No more sittin’ on the old school bench.

When the teacher rings the bell,
Grab your coat and run like hell,
If the teacher wants a fight
Blow her up with dynamite!

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream,
throw the teacher over board,
and then you hear her scream Argh!

In case you hadn’t guessed, today was the last day of term Which means I have holiday for just over two weeks now Yeah, I’m not sure what I’m going to do with myself either, but catching up on some movies and writing some more reviews sounds cool.
Ooh, and the teaching staff at the school where having like a little lunch after all the kids had gone and they invited me. It was quite nice [very bad for me though] and I got to talk to one of the governors, and Mrs Cowman [someone I knew from church cuz I have the same birthday as her daughter] and some of the other staff. I’m convinced that the Head Teacher thinks I’m some kind of ditz, because I couldn’t think of anything to say to her when she called out to me during her little speech – I kinda just blushed and tried to hide… Heh But yeah that was fun.

And this morning [since I decided going home would be a wast of time because I had to be back at the school by 1300h, so I spent the morning in Poole [which brought a whole new set of problems in that I wanted to buy everything I saw]]I bought myself some new hair dye, and I’ve just dyed it. It’s a bit darker than I expected and because I didn’t read the label properly in the shop, it’s now permanent. I’m happy with it though. Doing it was a nightmare though, because it has ammonia in it [which stunk] and hydrogen peroxide [which burnt a bit] and I spend 30 mins trying to wash the dye out and even then it wasn’t all out so I got bored and gave up.

So what else has been happening it me [since it's been a while since I did a proper update]?

Well, I was having some really bad dreams right after finishing Nano, so I put myself on sleeping pills which seems to be working. I’m not as tired on waking, and even though I know I’ve been dreaming, I can’t remember them

I’ve vowed [after having trouble with the buses this morning/ afternoon getting back to the school for 1300] that I’m going to learn to ride a motor bike, even it’s it’s some evil twist-and-go scooter.

I’ve also been doing a lot of work with my unfinished stories. Some of them have really cool concepts, so I’ve been re-reading them, writing out the concepts and plots-so-far in separate files with similar names [ie, for 'thing 2' I now have an accompanying file named 'Thing 2: Notes'] and trying to extend and finish those plots. I’ve also been doing character profiles for all the characters I know are going to be in it. That’s all pretty cool and making me feel batter about stuff

Err, I’ve finally managed to sort and tag the majority of my music, I only have the Soundtracks, Jazz and Rock’n'Roll folders to finish. Now my next task with that is to listen to everything and decide whether I like it, and would listen to it again, and if I should keep it. It’s a pity I can’t get the scrobbler for XMMS working otherwise that could be pretty amusing what happens to my stuff on Last.fm.

I’m sorry to say that work on OpenContribution.org has stopped again, because I really don’t know how to carry the project forward and it seems everyone else who was involved has forgotten about it. I don’t know, maybe it’s just one of those things that isn’t ever meant to happen…

Hum, what else…

I’ve been thinking about getting a new job because even though I love being a lolly pop lady, it’s just not paying enough. I get about £250 a month, and that’s not even enough to cover my rent [£260], let alone all the extras [£40 + random costs like dentist and optician appointment] as well as giving me playing money. The thing is everyone keeps saying ‘oh just get another part time job in between’, but I really don’t want to do that, I think I’d get far to confused and tired with all the running around.

I think that’s it… I can’t think of anything else I’ve been doing, other than studiously avoiding house work
