Singing Club

I love Voices Together :). That's the school singing group, and it currently has 7 members :D..but it's cuz we're cool. I look forward to it every week and everyone thinks I'm a weirdo for being so excited about it, but it is so great because I get to sing and chat and spend time with several awesome people and some lovely teachers...

Today was very funny at singing - while we were waiting for Sir to photocopy the music, we found some paper clips and decided to make a paper chain :)...which became crazily organized - we all had jobs like sorted out the next paperclips to add, adding them, making sure the chain didn't tangle etc. Then we got all excited and took pictures with it draped around us (including Sir :P) and went out into the corridor and did transverse waves which were ridiculously cool - they were massive! Then we decided to measure it and I knew I was 158cm (from biology the other day) and so I lay alongside it and AD put her hand where my head was and I moved along until we figured out that it was 11Xmy height :). Then we did 11X158 and found that our chain was 17m and 38cm :O :))

So of course then MF had to sneak into the closed school library and get the Guiness Book of Records (reference only ;) :D) and looked to see if we had the longest chain, but no-one with a paperclip chain was in there....so we decided we'd won :D

But then, sadly, Miss had to break (well, shorten) the chain to clip together our music sheets....
Basically we ended up doing very little singing but having a fantastic time :)

I love singing club almost as much as I love singing itself :)

Anyway, until next time, arriverderci :)

Update :)

Hello again :)

Well, it's Monday night of half-term and I already have no spare time for the rest of the week! I was planning to revise all week with maybe one or two days of relaxation and 'friend time'....but it kind of took over :D ooops :P

Today was awesome! It was one of the best days ever :). I had my first ever KFC, ate the most I've ever had in one day, actually managed to cut something straight and wrote down a ridiculous amount of funny quotes :D

I went to Becky's Nan and Grandad's house and we were basically allowed to do whatever we wanted which was amazing :). We drank copious amounts of Mountain Dew and Root Beer (I am brushing my teeth three times tonight, seriously!) and went home feeling extremely sick but in a way that means you've enjoyed eating loads of rubbish!

Quote of the day:

Becky's Grandad: (from other room, talking about our pizza) "Put it away"
Becky: "Oo-er!"

:D


I love you Bec :p

Now I've gotta get changed and ready for Masterchef :)

Quote of the Day

Anna: "Lottie...I think we melted the bung!"

Catching Up

After re-reading my last blog and noticing my comments about the chemistry test, I am surprised to say that I got 25/30 on that test, which was an A*! I think I need to have a little more faith in myself hehe!

Anyway, today was pretty normal. I was away at a funeral yesterday and Monday, so all day I kept thinking it was a Monday and going to Monday's lessons which was annoying, and slightly embarrasing when I walked into a year 10 history class 3rd lesson instead of music where I was supposed to be! I got a few funny looks :S

First lesson was english, which I always like because I get to sit next to RB :). However, this particular english lesson we were given loads of homework on top of what we already had (14 paragraph-length questions for tomorrow!). Also, I have extra to do because I missed some analysis of the book yesterday and have to complete my character pages. I should really be doing all this english homework now but it is so cold at my writing desk that I can't bear to move away from the computer and radiator! Maths was next and passed without much amusement, but I liked the volume of prisms stuff we were doing because it's a lovely repetitive formula :).

When I finally got to music (see second paragraph!), we did some past questions on AOS4 (Area of Study 4) and I got full marks on the second question we did (a several-part question). I was well happy coz Sir was pleased with me and gave me a 'Rose' from the tin in his desk :). However, Sir suddenly announced that our composition briefs have to be in by tomorrow and I was panicking because I haven't even thought about it yet. Luckily he said I could do it for next week instead seeing as I needed to record my first composition before I could do anything else....
In biology, I had to do the test I missed yesterday which went ok - I know I dropped a few marks but I don't think I've done too badly (touch wood!). Darn! - we got some biology homework for tomorrow too so I'd better do that in a minute! :S

Last lesson was chemistry and CR and I had some fun laughing at quotes, both Sir's and our own. We were doing displacement reactions which aren't too hard so it was a good lesson, really. I'm off to do homework now, but will leave you with a few quotes:

*Sir: In the name of all that is holy....do NOT mix up the pipettes and solution bottles!

*Lalu: "Is that oxidised because it won or because it lost?" - bless her! :))

*CR: "You know, I''m not sure I really know how to do ionic equations"
*Me: "Arghhhh! My shoee!"


Life is good :). Thing's obviously aren't perfect (or anywhere near!) but, right now, I'm pretty content with my life :)
