Fun with cars.

And I ain't talking 'bout  bumper cars.

That is one nice bumper car.

PSYCHOLOGY 
ART

Do you want to hear the good news or the bad news?

Good news? I got out of my NAB to finish off my art folio and I actually managed to finish off my art folio!!

Bad news? I missed the last ever Psychology class.

DOD!!! *shakes fist at sky* 


Yeah. I'm overly emotional over these things.

I've had some good times in that class! I'm going to miss the banter.

I'm predicted to get a B for Art... I'd REALLY like an A!! But hey, I left it to the very last minute, so I'm chuffed I passed at all!!

ENGLISH


Aww man... this is over a week ago... Genuinely can't remember!


DOUBLE MATHS


We would have had such a riot... if only we knew it would have been our last ever period of maths...


Alas. We did not.


However, the banter was amazing as usual. Words cannot describe my love for Sophie, Calum and Dougal. Such sweetie pies.


Spent my free with Sophie and Calum, revising English.


Sophie gave me and Calum a plan for a Turning point essay, so we were trying to decipher her writing and get our head around the points of the plan.
ME: So, is it all about the soliloquy?
SOPHIE: Uh... *Does this cute little smile that basically tells us all that she doesn't know what we're talking about* 
Smile and wave boys...
Smile and wave.

ART

Not much happened. Mr McDonald just confused us by saying that we might not get a photo of a painting when we open our exam paper next month... we might get a photo of fabricated fruit.

What tae fook?

Hilarious after school!

Calum was a sweetie and told me that he'd give me a lift home, so me, him and Caitlin waited in the car for Sophie, as she tried to stop Natalie driving away by lying across her bumper.

She also failed to stop Natalie driving away.

Yeah. She was running with the car.

What can I say? Sophie just didn't have
the strenght needed to stop a car.
Or pick it up with one hand.
If only she was a alcoholic hobbo!

She then tried to get into Calum's car... and he drove away, slow enough that she could still hang onto the side of the door, fast enough to make her run for her very life.

He repeated this several times, It was... ahhh... man! It was fantastic! Haven't laughed that hard in ages!!

I am a rampant, raping nun.

You got a problem wi' that?

PSYCHOLOGY

Yes. I got called a "Raging, Raping Nun" by Ashleigh today.

I don't even know why...

Oh no, wait, I do.

It was raining and I had no hood so I borrowed Sara's scarf and used it as a hijab.

Hijab? Raping Nun...
Yeah... I can see where you get that from...
*shifty eyes*

I decided to pretend to be a raping Nun... and I went into Pedo bear mode.

Hide yo' kids!

By "Pedo bear mode", I mean I stared directly at Ashleigh until she turned around, and then I slowly slid down the chair until I was out of view...

I love creeping people out.

Speaking about this blog today too!
ASHLEIGH: Better write that as your blog title!
ME: I will!
LJ: You have a blog?
ME: Yeaaaah.
ASHLEIGH: Where have you been for the past...
ME: 7 months? (Jeeez!)
KIRSTY: You get all the gossip!
LJ: I don't want to read gossip.
ASHLEIGH: But it's not all gossip.
LJ: You said it was! 
Gossip? Me? NEVER!


Speaking of gossip....


No. I don't think I have any gossip today.


Unless you want to hear about the condition of Caitlin's room?


Nah. Didn't think you would.


ENGLISH


Mrs Fulton seemed VERY calm for today being folio deadline!


In fact, so was so calm, she put on "Outnumbered" for us.


Productive lesson, as you can clearly tell.


Sorry. Genuinely couldn't keep a straight face. 
Megan was speaking about these girls who would literally socially exclude their "friends" if their hair was a mess or they didn't wear make-up.


Which, lets face it, is sickening.


Hate someone who's spreading rumours, or hatred. NOT someone who is merely being themselves.


Calum and Caitlin were "fighting" 
CALUM: Get on the bus back to Kincorth, then PHONE ME and I'll pick you up.
CAITLIN: I didn't take my phone!
CALUM: Well that's a lot of... *mumbles* good!
MRS FULTON: Do you want me to give you some money?
CALUM AND CAITLIN: Awww no!
MRS FULTON: Because I can't leave you stranded!
She's like a little superhero. 
Like THAT. But not as slutty.
Or slutty at all.

Went for break, and you know the "turd muffins" I used to tell you about?

You know, Turd Muffin.

Well, I give you... JIZZ MUFFIN.

...

Okay, my camera is in getting fixed right now, so there's no picture, just use your imagintion.

It's a muffin, with clumped on, white buttercream on top.

...

Mmm. Yummy.

DOUBLE MATHS

Good thing?

I realised that I've only got roughly 15 more periods of Maths again... in the rest of my life.

Bad thing?

I realised that I've only got roughly 15 more periods of Maths again with Sophie, Calum and Dogugal, in the rest of my life.

Queue the waterworks.

But seriously... THANK GOD I'm coming close to never EVER having to do another exponential function or draw a tan graph.

Seriously. Bleh.

Told Calum about how Michelle's cat attacked my viciously. It just really hates me.

Well you know what Kitty? I HATE YOU TOO.

.... 
DON'T LOOK DIRECTLY AT IT!!

Adele won a limo ride!

Which is pretty damn awesome! Sophie was totally chumming her up, trying to hitch a ride ;)

Haha, don't blame her!

Mr Hughes was trying to be funny again...
SOPHIE: Is it okay if me and Calum can go down to see Fullo?
MR HUGHES: Fullo?
CALUM: Mrs Fulton.
MR HUGHES: So are you Sophie-o?
*thuds head repeatedly on desk*


FREE

We have NO-WHERE to go now Mr Moody has stolen the Study room... Grrr... so we just went up and along every floor in the school.



We got up to third floor, and we were talking and looking at the giant map.... when Mrs Murray came out.
MRS MURRAY: What are you girls doing?!
Okay, before I can justify our actions, you must understand why we re-acted the way we did.


When adults see Mrs Murray, they see her for what she is...


Elton John's Mother 
A small, red haired lady.

When pupil's see her on the other hand?


Let's just say we perceive her as menacing.

So, when she asked us (angrily) what we were doing... we stared at her for a fifth of a second before all doing a ninety degree turn and bashing our faces off the map.


Seriously, we were standing that close to it.


ART


So stressful.


Found out that I have to complete TWO folios in the next 28 days...

WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING FOR EIGHT MONTHS OF MY LIFE?!


Went out to Chiquitos with Abie and Lewis at night.


Had a great time! I love our Friday's out!


Abie booked a table but it wasn't ready by the time we got there... So the wifey that greets you almost got a table buzzer somewhere dark and painful.


Ouuch!

It's Friday, Friday...

Couldn't resist...


This kid and her annoying song is EVERYWHERE


"Yesterday was Thursday, today it is Friday, tomorrow is Saturday and Sunday comes afterwards"


Seriously? Who came up with those lyrics?


Pretty sure it wasn't this guy.

PSYCHOLOGY

Dod was being sneaky today.
DOD: Highlight an important word out of that sentence.
SCOTT: Attachment.
DOD: I'd go for "Types of attachment".
SCOTT: You said word...
DOD: That or phrase.
Awwww Dod is in a doddle.


Our bus driver was awesome.


Like an Aberdonian Hugh Hefner.

For a 70 year old dude, he was a PLAYER!!
BUS DRIVER: *On Intercom* Thank you for flying with Sleazy jet... would anyone like to be dropped off at the shops before we arrive at our destination?
Everyone looks around the bus and ponders...
US: Naaaah. We're good.
BUS DRIVER: Hope you all have a great weekend!
US: Awww! You too!
BUS DRIVER: Oh... I always have a good weekend! Going to see Mamma Mia...
US: Have fun with that...
BUS DRIVER:  44 screaming women?  Don't worry, I will.
Then I got off the bus...
KATI: He reminds me of an older Dod! I think he's Dod's Dad!!
ME: ... How does he remind you of Dod?!
KATI: Because he came from Essex and so did Dod!
ME: ... How do you know Dod comes from Essex?
KATI: Oh, it was just me and him in the classroom and he told me that he came from Essex, so I asked "Do you know anyone from 'The Only Way Is Essex'?" and I was so tempted to ask him if he got vagazzled.
ME: Dod got vagazzled!!!
For those who don't know what the art of vagazzling is... 
Vagazzle: The act of bedazzling your vagina, also known as "Blinging your beaver".
Thank you for that insightful definition Urban Dictionary. 


ENGLISH


Mrs Fulton was off...


It was quite boring.


I drew a hill.


DOUBLE MATHS

We had either:



a) A Unit Three NAB


b) An extension test.


Good thing? Me and Dougal were reunited with Calum and Sophie :)


Bad thing? Dude. It was a test.


I was sitting the NAB, but I think I've failed a few of the outcomes cause (stupidly) I never really revised.


In my defense, I was K/O'd for twelve hours.


And information osmosis doesn't seem to work.


No matter how hard students try.

Don't tell anyone I told you this, but Sophie was totally cheating on her Maths test.
CALUM: Cheat.
SOPHIE: It wasn't cheating! I did the work last night and I was just looking over what I wrote!
CALUM: So if I took my notes book into the exam, that would be fine?
The school was decorated once again for a Birthday. Seriously, those guys are just too sweet.


DOUBLE ART


Watched Zoe squeezing into a corset.


Don't be fooled by its girly nature...
This could easily be one of Jigsaw's 
methods of torture in Saw.

Yesterday night was the best though.

MCFLY!!

Rawr.

Went with Halle and her two TKD buds Kerri and Julie.

The tickets were free. You can't get any better than that.

You know how support bands are usually okay/terrible?

Well. McFly's FIRST support band was actually really good!

"That Sunday Feeling". You should definitely check them out!

Anyways, went to get an IRN BRU (Because we're Scottish) and guess who we saw?

Jay Imlach. Bass guitarist of "That Sunday Feeling."



He is such a sweet guy.
ME: I love your shirt!
JAY: Thank you... you know, you're the first person all night who has said anything about it.
ME: Awww, I love Batman!
JAY: Me too. You guys enjoying yourself so far?
US: *In awe* Yeah!
ME: What about you, did you have fun?
JAY: Yeah, it was really good, but I'm so tired! We were out drinking last night and we had to walk back from the pub to the travel-lodge...
ME: Travel Lodge? Nice to see their letting you live it up!
JAY: I know!
Then he made us fall in love with him forever.
JAY: This is where it gets awkward... I'm not good at conversations.
ME: Neither am I! This is why you should have a drink.
JAY: I really should... I don't have any money though.
ME: Want a bit of mines?
JAY: No! I couldn't do that.  
JULIE: You sure? You can have a bit of mine's if you want.
JAY: No, that's too kind, I can't do that. What is that anyways? IRN BRU? Everyone's drinking it.
Haha, that's us Scots for yah!


So he went off, and he said that he might come and sit beside us during the show. But he didn't. Booo.


He had backstage passes though, so I can't really blame him!


McFly were adorable though.


We were going about shouting "C'mon Busted! I can't wait for Take That! WESTLIIIIIIIIIFE!" just to see people's reactions.


The best one?
ME: *To Linzie* You excited for Busted?!
Her face drops.


McFly were speaking Doric. Ken fit like min, och aye.


Some of the words they were saying I have never heard of in my life!!


They had t-shirt launchers. It was... EPIC.










I know what you are thinking.

McFly. Cheesy.

No. McFly. AWESOME.

They are honestly amazing performers. I recommend seeing them!

Oops. Missed the chair.

PSYCHOLOGY


Ahhhh man. Half eight in the morning is way too early for me.


Yet, I can still make sexual references?


GAME: Find the boobs.
With the duffdicated nipple.
Yes. I did just make up that word.

ME: It's not Rihanna that I have a lady crush on... it's Hayley Williams.
And her carrot of a microphone.
SARA: Oh yeah! It was Bev that had the lady crush on Rihanna.
ME: I would go gay for Hayley on this bus.
SARA: Just on this bus then? Not anywhere else? Not over by those trees?
ME: What do you take me for?! I am not an animal! 
We were trying to write up our reports, which basically meant me, Lucas and Sara had a wee chat.


Well... I say Sara...


She kind of got nudged to the far end of the classroom because Torry's computers are weird and none of them were working.


After some typing and (mostly) copying, I hear a loud *dunt*.


So I look up to see my Psychology teacher, sprawled out on the floor. He had missed the chair.


Who knows? Maybe he had his reaons...
Like not wanting his ass to be bitten off.

The part that was so hilarious was the fact that he stayed on the floor for two minutes. Just staring at everyone in the class, with his arms crossed like a mummy...

Dod.

ENGLISH

Got our personal reflective's back, Mrs Fulton said that we were supposed to mention society as a whole in our essays.

Our English class' collective face
 resembled this.

I swear, Ms Alba did not make us aware of this.

Then again....

She didn't even teach us well enough for us to realise that this is an example of bad spelling...


Bad spellers: Putting the "cool" in "Shcool".

She was saying that a majority of essays that she's had to read over the years had a few common problems...

Mainly:

A) Explicit descriptions of emotions.
"I was really scared of the dog."
B) Trying to a long period of time into one little essay.


C) Treating the essay as their journal entry...
 MEGAN: Oh noooo... I've done that! I don't want to hand it in now!! *hugs essay*
MRS FULTON: Personal essays are a bit like show and tell, it's the teachers chance to find out all the gossip...
Ahhh, now we know why the teachers insist on writing personal...


Apparently, some kid admitted to being abused in his/her personal essay... That takes guts to write. Poor thing. I would like to know how that was dealt with...


Was in the queue at break (wasn't doing queue duty, but I was meant to) and I asked Ashleigh:
ME: Is you next?
...


That's what an A in Higher English gets you folks.



DOUBLE MATHS

Gaaaaah. My double period of hell.



Had a nice little chat with Sophie and Calum though, (Dougal wasn't in, I thought he was skiving but it turns out he had a music exam) Sophie showed me her Mum with a cake and Calum showed me pictures of his Mum posing at Stonehaven beach.


Sophie had her phone on full display for about ten minutes (and, not to mention, answered it in the middle of the class), whereas Calum had his phone under the desk for a minute and was asked:
MR HUGHES: Is that a phone I see Calum?
Why do you hate Calum Mr Hughes?


Only violence like that is an acceptable
 reason for hatred.
Put the hammer down Calum.
And put some clothes on.

The good thing is that we got a five minutes break, so we went down to the Hot bar.
CALUM: I'll never forget the time that someone went up to get an icecream at Jimmy Cheungs... the machine broke and ice-cream started flying everywhere.
Bad things happen at Jimmy Cheungs.
ME: One of the girls in my year was at Jimmy Cheungs, and they had a bottle of ketchup, so they were shaking it to try getting the ketchup out and looked behind them... there was a man standing behind them, covered in ketchup. They had left the top off.
But, we had to go back up and "learn" something soon enough, so we went back upstairs. Mr Shaw spotted that Sophie had on a red and white top and asked...
MR SHAW: Where's Wally?!


He's behind you!

Lunch was funny. Went over to see Lauren because she was lonered, but some of her friends came over... 
GIRL: ... I've got no sauce.
LAUREN: Go get some sauce then.
GIRL: You go get it for me. 
LAUREN: Why the **ck would I get it for you?!
GIRL: Here's my accord card!
LAUREN: Get it yourself!
Laura is coming out of the queue.
LAUREN: *shouting* Lauraaaaa! SAUCE!
Laura comes out of the queue without the sauce.
GIRL: She didn't get my sauce. 
Go get the sauce then!!

Megan was away to go do her Music exam, Lauren said that her cover of "Memories" from cats was enough to move you to tears.

GIRL: I want to go see her sing!
LAUREN: Go on then!
GIRL: I will, if you get me some sauce.
LAUREN: How does that work!?!?
Went to see Mrs Fulton though, cause Megan needed to hand something in. She was freaking out majourly so you want to know Mrs Fulton's advice?
MRS FULTON: Think of your blood pressure!
Soothing. 


We went to music after that, I just listened to her playing timpini and singing. She's so talented. I swear. I think she freaked out some little kids though, cause she was talking about her lucky underwear and threw her clothes off in a dramatic fashion.

She's a drama kid though, what sort of fashion do you expect her to undress in?



(NOTE: She only took her jumper and blazer off... She wasn't doing her exam in her underwear.)


I like very few fourth years (mostly due to the fact I know very few Fourth years) but most of the ones I like are in the one drama class:


Sam
Ben
Jenny
(Yes, their class is tiny)


So I was speaking to them all before they went into class.


Love Jenny-Claire.
JENNY: How do you know Lauren?
SAM: How do I NOT know Lauren!?
ME: Hey! You're going to start Rumours!
The only exception.

Loved how she brought up the France story...

BACK IN THE DAY OF THIRD YEAR:
We were on the bus back to Britain from France and I fell asleep. The bus moved a corner or something and I ended up smacking Sam... with my head... on her head. UNCONCIOUS HEADBUTTING!

CONFESSION OF A MOVIE GEEK:
I have no recollection of that.

SAM: It's because you were asleep!!
ART


Kelly walked in with a face like a brick.
ME: What's wrong?
KELLY: I swallowed a sweet whole! *makes a weird, choking noise* 
This goes on for the whole of Art.
KELLY: *starts prodding throat* Oh! The sweet's there. I'm not poking myself in the throat again.
Then it turned into a geography lesson... here's a question for you:

What's the capital of Venezuela?
