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!!

Hillbilly's and yahoo answers do NOT mix.

Just an observation.

STUDY

Study this week was less... studying and more of a frantic panic to finish art. 


Heavy emphasis on frantic.

PUSH DA PANIC BUTTON!

You see, the art folio, 100% finished, was due in at 3.15pm on Thursday.

Which gave us all less than 8 hours to finish our final sheets (That takes bloody ages and very few of us were finished) and most of our development sheets... 

So STRESS?

Yes. The class were swearing like sailors.

HAYLEIGH: *notices there is some paint on her photos* F*ck! F*ck f*ck sh*t!!!

This speech bubble came out of just

about everyone's mouths.

...

Several times.

You should have seen the photos of Lauren and her sweet wrapper covered corset. They were gorgeous!

Kristina was awfully stressed bless her. She only had an hour and a half sleep and she was sick twice... just wanted to give her a hug!

Emotions were running high on Thursday. People were crying left, right and centre. 

And then Kati breezed in with a smile on her face, as always, she's so freaking happy, it just leaks onto everyone else.

Optimism and pessimism is contagious, don't let anyone tell you differently!

MATHS

Not much happened, Dougal pointed out how little time we have left... 

I'm going to miss Calum and Sophie!

Dougal. You are not getting rid of me that quickly. See you next year in Advanced Higher English.

DOUBLE PSYCHOLOGY

This double was the best of the whole week!

Just looking at Hannah and Emma's computer screen and laughing (not so) quietly to ourselves.

Just looking at THIS site and laughing at the extreme fails. Emphasis on extreme.

There was a miniature crowd by the end of the laughing session. Dod gave us a dirty look...

If he saw the next things we were looking at, he would've immediately forgiven us...

PANDAS!

ME: Panda's are awesome! They are like the natural advertisement against racism, "look at me, I'm black, white, asian, and adorable."

Know what else is adorable? Micro pigs.

I'm Piggy, IN WELLIE BOOTS!

How can you not love micropigs?! Look at their wee snouts and fall madly in love.

SARA: Samantha's Uncle is getting a micro-pig, but he has to buy two so one doesn't get lonely! How cute is that?!

So cute!  


Lucas then ruined the cuteness.

LUCAS: What do you think is better for killing someone: A cordless keyboard or a corded keyboard?

ME: *In a serious tone* A cordless, because then you could throw the keyboard at whoever you are trying to kill.

Us? Homicidal maniacs? NEVER!

Suicidal maniacs? Perhaps.

LUCAS: *tying mouse around his neck* Do you think anyone has ever committed suicide with their mouse?

I don't... but Mickey Mouse tried to commit suicide back in the 1930's cause Minnie dumped him. Messed up huh?

This is the inspiration

for the title.

Beware of vampire babies...

Also, beware of mis-reading signs. I thought that "Clean line socket machine" said "Clean, lean, socket machine".

Classroom photography - It's making a comeback!

DOUBLE ART

Holy shiz... the atmosphere in that room was terrible.

Kelly lightened the mood though....

KELLY: Why is it such a long walk from that classroom to this one?! *does a happily confused face*

Had a nervous breakdown over art too. I thought it was meant to be relaxing!!

Eventually finished art though!! 

Thank God! ^_^

Lauren xxx

I play electric triangle for the Suicidal pirates.

If Jack is a suicidal pirate...

He should NOT be holding a gun.

Naaah. "Suicidal pirates" is the name of me and Laura's death-core metal band. 

If you know Laura, then you'd laugh at this, because she's without a doubt the most optimistic person I have EVER met. She can't frown. Seriously. She tried to frown and she looked like a three year old attempting to scowl.

Imagine a female version of this.

That is Laura's frown. So forced! She's too much of a cutie to be pessimstic.

That's Laura... Just so you know what she

 looks like

So... imagine Laura in one of theses bands...

...

Actually, I hope she DOES get into Bring me the

horizon... Oli is pretty damn hot.

...

Why do I have such a thing for Emo boys?! 

STUDY

Attempted to study for my Psychology NAB (and failed to study for my psychology NAB) but I did see one of the best sights ever... 

 <= Fast forward to 3.40.

Chris was shuffling in Study.

Sorry... Chris was shuffling like a boss in Study.

He was really going for it, then a teacher walked past our room and had a little giggle to themselves. They must think that half of us are on drugs...

Wait... half of us are on drugs...

They must think we are all on drugs.

Then Chris started to talk gangsta.... it all went down hill from there.

MATHS

I've said it so many times, but I've only got three more blog posts to complain how terrible maths is because I've only got Thursday, Friday and Tuesday to go and then boom. Finished maths.

Forever.

It's an amazing feeling. However, I can't begin to describe how much I am going to miss Sophie, Calum and Dougal.

I'll see Dougal from time to time, he'll be in my English class next year, but I don't know if I'll be sitting next to him sooo *sad face*.

And Calum and Sophie are leaving for good in such a short amount of time! Makes me very upset...

DOUBLE PSYCHOLOGY

We were told that next week is the last week we will ever see Dod...

Do you think that sounds sinister? I think that sounds really sinister.

This is a live feed from a cupboard in

Aberdeen college. Poor Dod.

We had Sue though, and Sue is awesome. We were doing some "focused" revision (i.e. Sue told us what is in the test) on Memory:

SUE: What are the different types of influence?

DANIELLE: I can't remember...

How ironic, people seem to have difficulty remembering memory.


Speaking to Hannah and Emma again, they are so sweet. It really annoys me that we've only started chatting to them and now? Boom. End of term.


Why does that always happen?

SCOTT: I was in Hospital for appendicitis.

HANNAH: Why didn't you die?

Haha, as said, so sweet!


Spent the entire lunchtime talking to Sam. She's one cool kiddie. But our conversations always go wrong...

ME: Who needs men anyways?

SAM: We need penis to make babies.

ME: No. We need semen to make babies.

SAM: But we need p...

ME: How did we get onto this?! 

Also, we were talking about Euphemisms:

SAM: My Gran said: "I'm going to kick the bucket", so I was like "No Grandma, you're not going to die!". She then walked over to the bin and kicked it.

ME: I'm going to kick the bucket...

SAM: Go on.

Yeah. I went and kicked the bucket. I am a zombie. Fear me.

Or... go "Awww! at me.

Whichever.

Back to the "Suicidal Pirates".

SAM: Can I join?

ME: Sure.

SAM: What can I do?

ME: I don't know... what can you play? 

SAM: Only singing or triangle.

ME: ... ELECTRIC triangle?

Boo. Freaking. Yah.

FREE

Not much was done. Just chilled on the hill really. Good fun!

ART

We were meant to be revising for the writing exam... but instead?


Me and Kelly played the google auto-fill game.

Some of them are brilliant. Love this game!

Gregenga

Greg + Jenga = Gregenga! 

Or is it 4?

...

No wonder I failed maths.

STUDY

Speaking of failing, I had a NAB to revise for... which I didn't want to fail (did I have to add that in? Or did you know what I was getting at there?)

Sadly, not much revision was done.

Our study class is too funny.

Linzie, Andrew and Sara were playing jenga on Greg's head with books.

They managed to create quite a pile, before Greg moved his head and the entire pile came crashing down.

That's Gregenga for you.

Our study class is actually the classroom of one of the two lesbian English teachers.

She's got film posters all over the walls, all of very hot men. Or great films. Or penguins. Or hot penguins in films.

LINZIE: If this is Mrs Ashley's room... why are there pictures of men all over the walls?

SARA: Maybe she's bisexual?

Fair dues. 

 MATHS

I failed my second Maths prelim.

Arggghhh. 

He was being a douche about the whole situation anyways, reading aloud people's scores isn't respectful. Especially if they did not do well. Even worse is when this conversation goes down:

MR HUGHES: That's improvement though, it's okay, that's improvement.

MR SHAW: That's improvement? *Makes shocked face and leaves*

It makes me angry when that happens. People tried their best and they don't deserve those types of mean comments to bring them down.


The sooner I can get out of that department, the better.


NOTE: That does not mean I want to get away from people like Calum, Sophie, Dougal, Danielle and co. In fact, it's quite to opposite. But I cannot deal with another year of the hell that is maths!!


Mr Hughes did tell us however that we should go to the library to study...


Someone asked him if that's what he used to do.

MR HUGHES: Yes.

SOPHIE: Awwww! Can't you just imagine little Hughesy?

I can actually... In fact, I've got an old family photo of him as a toddler!

And later, as a child, with a killer bowl-cut, being forced to study and become a maths teacher...

"But I don't want to be a Maths teacher...

I WANNA BE AN ASTRONAUT!"

DOUBLE PSYCHOLOGY

NAB. Fooooook.

NAB re-sit. FOOOOK.

DOD: Tell me what a bar graph looks like... Lauren.

ME: *in my head* FOOOOK!

Trying to describe a bar graph is like trying to describe a colour. You CAN'T explain what it is unless you state what it is. *sigh*


The NAB wasn't too difficult, so it was okay.


And me, Sara and Lucas ended up speaking to two Torry girls that have been in our class since... last June? And we've never really sat down to talk to them properly.


Which, if you think about it, is kind of tragic! Because they are really adorably sweet! 

HANNAH: I don't like animals... I got chased around by a chicken once...

Believe it.

Awesome Psychology banter, as always.

Mukhtar was being a tour guide on the bus back from Torry, which, on reflection, was kind of weird... seen as he had just said:

"I never tell lies".

And here he is saying nothing but lies...

MUKHTAR: We're approaching one of the most beautiful areas of Aberdeen right now.

(He was referring to Kincorth, so blatant LIE)

MUKHTAR: You'll see lots of Dandelions.

(They were daffodils) 

MUKHTAR: The brown ones aren't dead, they are just hibernating.

(Flowers don't hibernate, bears do). 

MUKHTAR: And we are just approaching a private school, it's the best school in Aberdeen.

(He was speaking about Kincorth Academy, need I say any more?)

Lunch? Urggghhh...


The music on the radio was horrible!


Glee.


Glee.


Glee.

Rod Stewart.

Glee.

Aqua.


AQUA!?


Listen to this and tell me that this isn't a timeless classic...


Okay... timeless classic has pretty positive connotations, right? Then it is not a timeless classic. But this song just. wont. die.


Wow. After a quick google session, I discovered that Aqua are still alive.


And they are producing semi serious music?

Even Rebecca Black is shocked by your cheesiness.

That is a huge insult to Aqua, I am sure we can all agree.

DOUBLE ART

Rachel was blasting her tunes.


I know what you're thinking...


"That sounds pretty funky" or, if you come from this century, "That sounds pretty cool, what's the problem with that?"


The problem?


THIS is the problem.


The bigger problem? I actually like that song. Oh dear.


Mr McDonald then came in and TOTALLY crushed the party mood, because he revealed that the art folios are due in on the 6th of May. 


That's 2 weeks away.


And I haven't even finished them. EITHER of them...


FOOK!


Basically, everyone was just stressing out because of this.


Apart from Liam, cause he's is just one chilled out dude.


New nickname? The Icecube. I shall have to inform him that this is his new nickname...


He has been informed. 


Speaking of Liam, had an epic conversation with him and Aaron on the bus ride home. 


Well, I had an awesome conversation with the both of them in general, but that was on Thursday and now It's Saturday so I'm just going to give you excerpts.

LIAM: So who's side were you on: Team Paramore or Team Farro?

ME: Isn't it obvious?!

LIAM: Team Farro?

ME: NO! Team Paramore...

LIAM: WHY?!

ME: Josh is such a douche! He keeps bringing up the past, I wouldn't mind them if Josh just stopped!

LIAM: But the drummer was hot.

ME: Yeah... Zac was a cutie... But Hayley Williams?! I'd go gay for her. Wouldn't you go straight for her?

I'd love to tell you that having a gay friend isn't all it's cracked up to be, but I'd be lying. I loved Liam before I found out he was gay, but I love him even more now! ^_^


We were having a conversation about concerts, so obviously, I whapped oot the boob story


...


Whapped oot and boobs probably shouldn't be in the same sentence, should they?


Oh well. It's my blog and I'll write whatever I please!

What's that? The Power has went to my head?

Never

ME: Yeah, I was at a concert, and I got whacked in the face by someone's boobs. I mean, I just turned round to speak to Chloe and BOOM. Boobs in the face. 

LIAM: Lesbian!

ME: Is it really lesbian if I didn't choose for it to happen? It's more like rape.

LIAM: Or just a terrible invasion of personal space.

This is normal banter for me. It's what I hear on a daily basis. Perhaps that just helps emphasize the weird nature of my life.


What is NOT normal, or anticipated, or even socially acceptable?


Some random kid deciding to join in this conversation at this precise moment in time.

Creepy child alert!

RANDOM KID: I heard every thing you just said.

INNER MONOLOGUE: Damn. I told myself that I would speak quietly on buses after the time Michelle told me that I was like a foghorn on them.

ME: ... Yeaaaah.

RANDOM KID'S FRIEND: He turned around so quickly when you mentioned boobs.

I just wanted to shout out:

"YES! Some random girl slapped me across the face with her jugs! It was the least sexual thing I have ever witnessed. GET OVER IT AND DON'T BUMP INTO CONVERSATIONS AT AWKWARD TIMES!"

But, I didn't. 

RANDOM KID: Goodbye weird girl.

First: Weird girl? No. If that is going to be my superhero's name, then you can get lost! I want to be called Captain Flash. Flash as in flash photography. Not flash as in exposing self in public.

Whenever I think of flashers, I immediately think

of the Gremlins flasher scene.

I'm a movie geek, sue me.

Second: RESPECT YOUR ELDERS!!

RESPECT!!

Lauren xxx

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!
