My lack of online presence this week can be put down to the fact it's been the year 10 exams. I still have some left as well, Geography, I.T and French. On the other hand, I already have my Maths result! We all did pretty badly but the way I look at it 62/112 beats 17/112 anyday.
Friday morning was brilliant for me and Kiel- although it sounds silly when I write down but being silly is my speciality.
Kiel came in on his own, Matthew was late (shock horror!). Our tutor was doing her usual 'teaching in another school' act so we went down to the guidance centre to see Mr Smith. But he wasn't there, or in his study. So as we were waiting we saw Mr Thomson (not Paul Thomson sadly) walk across the house base followed by a string of year 11's.
"A-ha!" we thought "We'll go and hand in our application forms that need to be in today or else".*
As soon as this thought had time to cross our minds Mr Smith arrived, so we left a message with Quade- we were in and probably would go straight to the exam after the form handing in business.
'"Ah" said Quade , "I too must hand in the form of application!"**
"Oh dear!" we said "We'll be late for the exam!"***
"It matters not, for I appear to have forgotten my application form after all!" said Quade.
To Mr Thomson we marched for the handing in of forms (ours being the 7th and 8th of the entire year group) back briefly to Mr Smith and then to the exam hall. Our tutor, of course was nowhere to line up behind so we gravitated towards Mark and Quade who imparted the message;
"Set 1 have gone in."
Finally we reached our seats on the stage, exam papers before us, happily buzzing away to ourselves.
* I can't really read minds.
** Quade doesn't really talk like that.
*** Me and Kiel don't really speak in unison. Or with so many exclamation marks for that matter.
I think there's a noticable point where I give up on simply noting the events of the morning and make a pretty terrible story out of them. Blame the copious amounts of Diet Coke I've been drinking.

P.S This is awfully sweet.
P.P.S I'll plug www.notadaffodil.com when there's actually something there worth plugging.
