I will carry on with that fish restaurant story at some point. Really, I will. But not right now.
So today was weird. Went to school in a really good mood. Had subs first period with Lehman, English teacher. She overheard some people talking one day about me and Woy… now she is forever on my case about it. She says she won’t push or tell anyone. But she’s warning me to think twice and not just jump into anything headfirst. She says that the fact that I keep whatever it is a secret means that there must be something about it I want to hide. Something that’s wrong about it. *sighs* Firstly, I have thought. So much. And I can’t come up with anything better than this. Nevermind thinking twice, I hvae thought a couple of hundred times (if not more). There isn’t anything wrong with it. Well, not technically. It’s just not what people usually do. And that people would freak out if they were to find out.
Then we had Life Orientation. It was pretty boring. Did the whole self-analysis thing. Again. Quite boring. Then double Afrikaans which was extremely boring. Then subs. In which Morne, Robynne and I had a fairly decent conversation (well, mainly because there wasn’t anyone else to talk to
). Then we had Science. We were all pretty asleep. We’re doing the Nitrogen cycle and it’s very boring…
Then we had second break. The whole gang was way asleep. We just sat (and lay) on (and around) the bench. It’s like there was this cloud of laziness that just slowed the whole school down. No-one had brought food. There were very few people on the field. There was only one game going on (the ever-ambitious grade 8’s playing rugby. Or trying to. Maybe if they keep at it long enough…*shrugs*). Then more Science. My Astrid Peach (yes, lol. We all call each other peaches. Well, Astrid, Agnes and I) wrote her mid-year exam today. Since she kinda dropped science in the middle term, then came back. She can never make up her mind. So now she needs the marks… So she wrote today. I hope it went well.
Then English. We were supposed to be writing some or other newscolumn. I just daydreamed. Came home. Went shopping. Oh yes, we went shopping. And it was also quite nice. Either the shops have all suddenly become very user-friendsly or my mood is good enough to have actually made peace with it *suspiciously wonders how long this will last*
Spent the day at home, doing homework, playing piano and writing. And playing freecell
.
Tomorrow night is prize giving. Oh joy. I wonder whether I’d get into trouble for bunking. *grins* Probably not. I’m in the lowest grade in the phase, so the chances of getting anything are farely remote. We have to get something like 10 or 20 percent higher than the grades above us to win the trophies. So someone who gets 84% for something in grade 11 would beat me if I got 93. You catch my drift. And so on and so forth.
I still wasn’t hungry earlier today. Ate half a bowl of muesli. Then a handful of blitong for lunch. And if it had been earlier this week, that would pretty much have been my whole day’s food (apart from some salad and maybe some meat at dinner). At dinner tonight I had some macaroni and potatoes (and meat and salad). And then I suddenly got very hungry. I had, like, a slice of toast and some soup and some milk (chocolate, lol) on top of it. I haven’t been this full for a good month. And no, I do not (even usually) eat this much. But I’ve suddenly gotten very hungry. I whether I’ll be back to normal tomorrow. Hopefully.
My word it’s hot. I am sitting here in boxers and a bra and I am still melting. I love SA. As much as I complain about the heat and everything
. I just adore it. I don’t know how I’ll survive Germany. *sighs a little* But I guess I will. I’ll have to. *shrugs and sighs a little*
I will be philosophical and deep. TOmorrow. HOnest. If I get time to post tomorrow. But soon, don’t worry. For now I have to go , though. Bye all.
