News from Mantic.

Over the past few days, Mantic has started releasing photos of Their new line of miniatures.
                                                       KHAOS DWARFS!!!
I am very stoked for these guys, as Dwarfs just so happen to be my favorite fantasy race and evil ones are all that much better.
Mantic releases some nice miniatures and you can usually get boat loads of em for relatively cheap.
I think I will be picking up some of these guys just for the heck of it.

Today's shaping up to be pretty awesome

Snow is CRAZY today.


There's about 6 inches of snow outside.
Town's webcams show that Union Street is at a standstill.
The snow is piling up against my window... If I were to open it, it would result in a puddle.
AND... 63 schools in Aberdeen are closed.


To give you an idea of how bad that is... There's only 66 Council run schools in aberdeen!


And guess what?

My school isn't part of them.


But Mum is not making me go to school so hear I am! ^_^


Think I'm going to chill today, have something to eat, tactically plan what I'm going to get my Mum and Dad for Christmas.


Sound like a good plan?


How are you all today?

Broke people were once rich people who got carried away.

I learnt this the hard way today.

More on that later.


Went to sleep last night *COUGH COUGH Early this morning COUGH* and it was green and grey outside.

Wake up this morning, and it's white again.

Where did it all come from?!


Also, JUST missed the bus that Linzie and John were on this morning, so I had to jog to catch the EARLY one, e.g. the five to eight one.


STUDY


Didn't do anything in all honesty.


Just sat and chatted to Kirsty and Ashleigh for most of the time.

ME: Did you see Ms Rankin's face when Mr Tullock was flirting with that girl this morning?

KIRSTY: So jealous! She's still married to her Husband, but I think he broke up with his wife.

ASHLEIGH: And now... do you think she's pregnant... looking a bitty podgey.

ME: Don't know...

KIRSTY: She was showing us pictures of her wedding when we first saw her, and now? Saw her walking in town with her Husband and they weren't holding hands or anything, it was all down hill since she's met Mr Tullock.

ASHLEIGH: Up her hill...

Well... we all need a good gossip once in a while!

MATHS

Nothing interesting.


Dougal is NOT going to be singing in another school concert.

Sophie is hearbroken by that.


Calum kept saying that Mr Hughes loves Sophie, and he was away to write it on a fogged up window, he didn't though.


PSYCHOLOGY


Halle gave me a cookie on the bus ride over, Loveyaaaah!


Lewis asked me and Sara whether we had any polos/chewing gum. We did not.


Lewis was upset by this.


He then went off the rails and started saying "I like Turtles" over and over again.


Got off the bus and I almost fell (three times).

Torry hates me so much, even the ground is trying to trip me up.


It was really cosy when we went in, always good.


We were doing our Research Investigation.


http://www.isitchristmas.com/ and looking up that, seems to be a trend for 5th years right now.


And this.


http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_millions_are_there_in_a_pack_of_millions

We might be using Millions in our experiment, not completely random.


We then played pictionary.

Somehow, I don't think it was fair.

Lucas had to draw "Turkey."
Sara had to draw "Snowman".
What did I have to draw?

Cognitive.


So we cheated, and you know what?

We still managed to come last.


Sara kept typing "Buzzin Lightyear" into the computer, and she sent Dod a blank email, to which he replied:

"Sara,

There is nothing attached 

Dod."

OH! And me, Lucas, Kirsty and Ashleigh (And, Sara, if we can force her in) are going to go inside of a giant snowglobe on Monday :P


Cause that's how we roll.


And Halle started a snow kick fight outside of psychology.


We all lost. Apart from Natalie, who decided to join in for the hell of it and just said "I just wanted to join in" and hey presto, no snow kicked at her.

FREE

Free wasn't particularly exciting, we did however watch the video on this site...


Aberdeen Aberdeen! (Aber-DONT!)


And attempted to bypass the proxy to blog and get on This (I know, we look at some crap)


ART


Again, was basically just walking about.


Rachel was well excited about seeing Peter Andre and looked SO upset when she thought that she wasn't going to get to see him today.


Well cute! 


Went into town and got a few presents for people.


Was talking to Emma on the bus in, she's such a cutie!


There was some pervy snow too, THAT was uncomfortable and took surprisingly long to melt.


Went into see Ashleigh at her work, she's so professional! And, FYI:

1. Katy Perry's pefume smells amazing. And the bottle? Adorable.
2. Peter Andre's smells a little like soap. Not fine smelling soap. And the bottle is so plain it hurts.

A lady fell down the stairs and really hurt herslef too... Felt really bad for her, she had an oxygen mask on and everything.


And Ryan asked The Script to follow Olivia for Christmas because she LOVES them and you know what?

They did! Cute or what?


Lauren out xxx

I feel hungover... Have you even got drunk before?... No.

My friends are absolute nutcases, I swear.


Laura, Linzie and Claire went to see JLS on Tuesday night, they were well tired on Wednesday morning.

LAURA: *tiredly* I feel Hungover...

MEGAN: Have you ever been hungover?

LAURA: No...

I hang my head in embarrassment.


Even worse? Megan took a book of 1001 pin ups to school.


Why, Megan?! WHY!?


Oh! And I felt insulted! She had a dream that I had my leg bitten off by a shark in a swimming pool, and that Laura told Megan to go fetch me tampons... So Megan was throwing tampons at me whilst I was bleeding out from a shark biting my leg off.


Lovely.

P.E.

Nothing done again as usual... unless...

You call posing "Sexily" for photos as "doing something".

We were just chatting about the X factor and stuff like that to be honest.

Michelle posed for a few shots before going off to spar with Lewis

Sexy beast.

She hit Lewis in the face.

Yeah, they were sparring, quite innocently when all of a sudden...

WHACK!

Right on the cheek.

That had to hurt!

ART

Didn't do anything again...

White turd on a muffin at break though!

Freshly made turd muffin ;)

ENGLISH

Ah man, I do not kid you when I say I almost fell asleep.

In fact, I think I did fall asleep, I have no recollection of Mr Murphy reading out two paragraphs of an essay.

Must get more than 5 hours of sleep! Thank god holidays are coming up!

MR MURPHY: *To Calum* Wakey wakey!!

Half of the start wake up, startled. 

Laura said that she would probably lay into Ms Ashley about how she feels about her if she was drunk.

Megan said that she would probably end up in BED with her.

Laura sticks up her V's.

Megan sticks up hers and licks in between.

Laura sticks up middle finger.

Megan sticks up her middle finger and sucks on it.

Mwahaha... what a comeback!

Lewis was winding Linzie up about... well... the usual.

DOUBLE BIOLOGY

We were listening to our heartbeats!

Turns out the school has about 500 stethoscopes.

Who knew!?

Milton was listening to my back to see if he could hear his stomach...

That's what he said. 

Realised that there were only 10 days till Christmas in this class, MAJOR freak out.

And turns out that our class knows shockingly little about reproduction and periods.

MRS DUNCAN: So, why is the egg bigger than the sperm?

JASON: Because the egg has to have room for the yolk...

ALICE: Isn't it because there's already some parts of the baby in it?

MRS DUNCAN: What? Like the arms and the legs already inside it? 

NIAMH: No, like... Mr Potato head, it looks like an eggy potato...

Heard it hear first folks, when you were only a few months old (in your Mommy's tummy), you looked like this

Even HE looks sceptical.

MRS DUNCAN: Aaron asked me how big the ovaries were, and I told him they were this big *makes a fist* and he just said "That's not impressive."

 I looked at my fist, then downwards, and I thought that it was VERY impressive. The rest of the class looked confused, holding their fists.

SOMEONE: This is the size of ONE ovary?!

MRS DUNCAN: No!

We're passing ;)


Lauren out xxx

Racism directed at self: There are some things that white people just can't say.

You just have to admit it, us white folks are NOT cool.


We can't dance.
We can't sing.
We can't rap (Eminem is the once exception to this rule)
We can't say certain words (e.g. NEVER say Shizzle, dizzle, fizzle... ANY type of izzle. Or blood. Cause just sounds like your a junkie vampire that hasn't had his hit for a while... "What's up... blood?! I love you... blood!!"
And above all?!
We can NOT wear baseball caps anyway but forward 


Just an observation.

WORD OF THE DAY: Acidity regulator OR unconscious

P.S.E

Michelle had a cute little Chirstmas present from Rachel.


Although, she says she knows exactly what she has, because she was in town with her whilst she bought it. Haha, fail!

LAUREN: Gaaaaah... Mrs Anderson is...

MICHELLE: Speak of the devil...

MRS ANDERSON: Excuse me? Who was talking about me?

 LAUREN: Me...

MRS ANDERSON: Why were you talking about me?

 LAUREN: Emmm.... Was just wondering where you were.

Ch'yeah, say what you will, she's a quick thinker!


She was wearing a Leopard print dress. Sara loves leopard print, but because of the stereotypes...

Looking at you.

... She refuses to wear any.


So, me and Claire are the people in our group that... eheeeem... "Try" to do some work.


Jamie and Greg try to avoid Mrs Anderson above all else...


What's their "punishment?" 


They don't have to do Y.P.I anymore.


What's our "reward?"


We have to join another group.


Point?


Even worse? One of the girls in my group is in hospital (get better soon Hayleigh!) because something is wrong with her kidneys. And she's the only one that knows what to write about the visit because Andrew, although he did go to the visit, seems to have forgotten everything about it.


Brilliant.


One of the ladies from "Inspire" booklet looked like the girl from reception.

Both sharing an uncanny resemblance to Roz from Monsters Inc.

BIOLOGY

Ahhhh vagina.


Yeah... we were learning about the Female Reproduction system.


It's hilarious if I'm honest, our class is so shy!


Abie came in, looking fairly stressed out. All she needed was a good chug of her lemon fizzy water and she was fairly hyper ;)


We got this sheet, showing the female reproductive system and we had to label it.


All I heard from one of the boys was:

"Do you girls have yolks in your eggs?"

Higher Biology for yah.


OH! And me, Abie and Lewis are going to see Santa next Thursday.


Don't be too jealous.

ART

Awwww, was trying to help Lewis scan in his motorbike graphics into the computer. 


Didn't work well.


Spent fifteen minutes pressing every button, wiggling every cable and hitting it Gently tapping to try getting it to work.


Kelly just looked on.


Then?

ME AND LEWIS: Ooooh... *printer makes noise* AHHHH!!!!!

We were NOT working well yesterday in all honesty.


Me and Kelly were eating skittles... you know... for research purposes.

No, in all honesty, we were. She's making a fascinator out of recycled material so she wanted my skittle packet.


Does anyone else like the Purple skittles?

I'm not so keen on them, but Kelly loves em.


Just wondering, comment if you do ;) Or if you think that they should make packets of ONLY red skittles. OR if you think they should make blue skittles.


So Mr McDonald gave Kelly a gentle nudge to work

MR McDONALD: Take a look to your left Kelly... *she does so* See? Working. Now, take a look to your right *She does so, Kristina looks up and waves* Working. Now.... DON'T look in front of you *she does so anyway, I look insulted* because she isn't doing work.

Cheeky!

KRISTINA: Ever want to work in a Baker's for a day, so you quit and then keep the hat?

So cute.


Me and Kelly are going to make a comedy about White people who think they are legendary and try to act cool, but they are just nuts.

"What's up my hoe? You be chilling back at the hood blood? FO' SHIZZLE?!"

No.


If you have ever said this, then hang in your head in shame, whether your black, white, blue or multicoloured... JUST NO!


Halle gave me into trouble for skipping the lunch queue...


Just cause you were too chicken!! :P


Was like Mission Impossible cause Mr Whyte was watching.


OH! And there was a fight.


This TINY kid threw apple juice over this third years head, and then he threw coke at her, but Lauren felt sorry for her and shielded her from it all. Well heroic!




But then, the kid get really annoyed and started screaming at him... remember, this kid was literally only up to his waist.


I thought she was going to punch him, instead, she stood up, walked over the table and pushed over a bin on her way out.

MATHS

More skittle munching, this time with Sophie, Calum and Dougal.


Calum almost choked on one. Felt guilty! Thought I was going to have to do the Heinrich's...


Dougal was trying to explain something to Sophie and Calum, they weren't understanding it so he was getting a tad annoyed ;)

MR HUGHES: Dooby dooby doo!

Whaaaaaaaaaaat?!


Sometimes, I really don't know what's going on.

More dresden Files

I've finished The Dresden Files I thought the first half of the season ( plus Storm Front ) wasn't very good but after that the remaining episodes of the show were solidly entertaining but I guess by then a lot of the audience had stopped watching which is a shame, there was some great stuff at the end especially episode 11. Things That Go Bump  which despite being an obvious bottle show was the pick of the series for me.

I used to work in Hogwarts. Oh, and one of my relatives used to dress up as Sully to scare me on Christmas Eve.

*sighs* The weird people I know!!


How are you all today? Good start of the week I hope!


Can't believe it's only 12 days before Christmas!


Got to school in plenty of time this morning.


Everyone was talking about X factor final, do you blame them? Was awesome.


Not a lot of people too chuffed about song choices for the winners songs mind you, mainly Biffy Clyro's "Many of Horror" (to which, they changed the name of the song? It's a cover guys, you have to respect the original)

ENGLISH

Not much was done in the first period. Fairly boring again. Had a nice chat with Lee though, the kid is such a hun.


Lee has been hacked by a New Jersey hacker... WTF?

Why would someone want to hack someone else half way around the world? Can you tell me that?

Yeah. Hacker. I'm speaking to you. You big blue headed, monkey like FREAK!

Let Lee back onto twitter. I miss her.

It was the next period of English that was eventful however.

Lee wasn't in English last week, so she didn't know about Mr Inness (a little bit of a nut).

So I warned her that we MIGHT have him.

Guess what.

We did.

I shot her this look that just screamed "Watch your back, This guy's a nutcase" and sat down.

He was... odd.

He told us that he worked in Hogwarts...

MR INNESS: I used to work in Hogwarts

LAURA: Oh did you? Me and Rhaegan used to go there.

MR INNESS: Oh!!

RHAEGAN: Yeah, I was in Slytherin.

LAURA: I was in Hufflepuff, not smart enough to be in Gryffindor.

RHAEGAN: What did you think of Dumbledore.

MR INNESS: *Wavers hand around to express that he's unsure* Ehhh... I don't know.

 Billy broke his glasses too (I didn't even know he owned a pair) so he went next door to get cellotape and post its to fix them.


Katie sung a song about Fixing glasses with a plastic spoon (clearly an original) and Billy says "Oh yeah, I know that song".


Man. We must be high on something.

MR INNESS: You should really twitter about breaking your glasses.

EVERYONE: TWEET!

MR INNESS: Oh yes, tweet, sorry, we use Telepathy in Hogwarts.

LAURA: Really? What's he *Gestures to Sean* thinking?

MR INNESS: Oh you don't want to know. And neither does she. 

Then we asked him about his pink, flowery tie.

LAURA: What kind of flowers are on your tie?

MR INNESS: Their not flowers, their images of flowers...

LAURA: ...Alright...

MR INNESS: They eject poison onto..

Yahda Yahda, Kids a nut. 


KELLY WAS BACK! Yay! Missed that kid and our COMPLETELY random banter.


Halle is well psyched about Katy Perry next year.

7,500 tickets gone in one hour and my Mum scored us some?


Why would you NAE be!?

Hopefully she hasn't ate her watermelon.

I feel like it would add massively to her tour.

I love Katy Perry. Not as much as Pink or Hayley Williams, granted, but still, she's awesome.

And she likes watermelons. What's not to love.

BIOLOGY

Circulation!

Yeah, we were learning about circulation.

Or rather, Dr Robertson was trying to teach us about circulation.

We don't listen to him on a Monday, makes me sad, cause he is such a nice guy (who, we learned today, is as thin as a toothpick!)

Abie wants us to apply for jobs at Toys R us, I'm totally up for that for two reasons:

One: Toys 'R us? Why would you NOT want to work there.

Two: Working with Abie? Would come home every night with sore ribs from laughing too hard.

DAMN! That reminds me, we still need to do our film quiz on Tuesdays!

DR ROBERTSON: If you're running, Blood flow will be directed towards the muscles such as the legs instead of the kidneys...

JASON: So exercise is bad for you?! 

ABIE: Ahhh... Need to work my kidneys!!

The class is nuts. 


We finished off the class by measuring people's blood pressure, with an old school pump...

Scream and run away in sheer terror.

If you're still reading, then you don't quite realise the severity of the situation.

Linzie is the one taking your blood pressure 

Yeah. That shut you up.

She just kept squeezing... I thought Abie's arm was going to explode.

ABIE: ARGHHHHHHH!!!!! *looks at arm, bulging over arm strap*

When it came off, you could clearly see a giant red mark! 


Then it was Abie's turn... 

Queue evil laugh.

LINZIE: *SCREAMS*

ME: Oh, she's gonna get her own back!

ABIE: I wouldn't do that! *Laughs*

DR ROBERTSON: I wouldn't trust her, she just laughed.

LINZIE: *SCREAMS*

Went to town with Sara after that.

Caught the bus with Katie as well, she's a right nutcase that kid! She's always high!


High on life. Jealous!

Yeah... High on LIFE...

No. Seriously though, high on life. 

I asked her what she ate in the morning, she said nothing.

Remind me not to eat breakfast tomorrow morning...

NOT King Kong. Me tomorrow at 12.30 (without breakfast)

Me tomorromow at 12.30 (with breakfast)

Either way, I'm still a Damned, dirty ape.

KATY: One of my relatives dressed up, like fully dressed up as Sully on Christmas Eve one year, like, ages ago, and he just sat on my bed...

Uncle Billy?

Went to the food court for some Noms. We both got a BBQ chicken wrap, was godly.

Sara really disliked the huge musical baubles! Suppose, the song did get on your nerves after the first time playing...

Had a really good time with her ^_^ Nice to catch up!

Her work colleagues seemed to jump out from EVERYWHERE!!

One was just walking down the street and started tugging his ear and looking at Sara... I thought he was a drunk and then she said that he just slagged her off a lot for wearing huge earrings :L

We were looking for more huge earrings in Primark, I kept pointing out really big ones and then she said:

SARA: I don't want to look like Pat Butcher!!

LOL!

She was singing "Come on Baby Light my fire" and this guy is listening in and then said "It's a no from me."


CHEEKY!!!


Got home and had an epicly long convo with Chloe....


About Alpaca's...

Cute Alpaca, looks like he's wearing uggs!!

 And Whoopi Goldberg in a bathtub of Milk.

As you do.

Go ahead and google "Whoopi Goldberg".
Then go onto Google images.
Can't get away from this image.

By the way, did you know you could get "Stud Alpacas"?

Don't believe me?

Evidence.

The thing that disturbs me is the two type of "stud" services you can get...

"Drive by" or "Mobile mate"

Good times.

Although... Now I need to get Chloe an Alpaca from Christmas...

Or a diamond encrusted tree trunk.

God... I love my friends.
