The Clanging Chimes of Doom

Take a big spoon of pressure, a dollop of stress, some essense of  X-Mas exams and black ice, and the gently simmer until the mixture cools into a great big vat of panic. Yes, it’s that time of year again and Abbey Community College is probably the only school in the country who was making their sixth years do Christmas Exams, not three weeks after the Hallowe’en ones, last Wednsday, Thursday and Friday. However, due to “adverse weather conditions”, (the same ones that got me kicked out of the library) we managed to not see the inside of an exam hall for the whole of last week. Some might think “Yay!” but unfortunately in our school we have some courses which are becoming very close to being unfinished in time for the big LC. So, we all thought “Hey, there’s no way they’ll give us exams now and take another week off school!”. We were wrong.

Nope, Abbey Community College is taking tomorrow off for another snow (and holy) day and then exams til Monday. That’s two weeks of no classes when we need it most, considering the last two days have been less than profitable….Idiots. (And all of this ranting has nothing to do with the fact that I am seriously unprepared and sledded all last week) >:(

All things considered though. Fair play to some teachers who actually HAVE completed our courses ahead of schedule. Geography is done with more than we need to know and English is kinda done (I think he’s forgotted to do Frost as our last poet). Our Maths teacher tells us nothing really but I think we are doing okay (Syllabus wise. I still fall asleep in Honours Maths). Biology is a disaster zone I’m not going to talk about because I think I will cry. And German, Art and Irish are going great, except for the fact that I’ll be getting a new Irish teacher soon (my third in two years). I mean really, maternity leave! What a joke! Do it in your own time! 😀

My English teacher is hilarious. Handed him up an essay. Said it was good, but strange. I said “How?” “It was like the… twilight(Fear pooled in my stomach at the thought of being compared to Stephanie Meyers’ writing)…zone (phew). “What do you mean?” “It was like the X-Files.” What?! Isn’t that about some duo who go around solving supernatural cases or something?! My essay was about two guys moving together due to money problems and the pranks that occured afterwards! No aliens or mothmen in sight! That man! He’s hilarious 😀

Best be off. I’ve lost my locker keys which holds all my books, along with my favourite keyring. Need to find them. Happy Holidays! I don’t know when I’ll update next. My plan of once a week went out the window when I actually got a life this year XD Probably will before Christmas.

Frohe Weihnacten!

Anyway, God knows when I’ll next update. Things just fly out of my my mind these days but I’m sure to have time before Christmas.
