Hello! Glad I made you laugh, cos I'm not laughing! I cannot believe
I just spent a SATURDAY revising Maths! I've nearly taught myself the
whole syllabus! LOL! I'm such a fool for not asking questions in
class! I've not understood one lesson! Deary me. I've had enough of
this revision lark!
It has actually numbed my brain. I opened the dishwasher while it was
still on today! HAAAAAHAAAAAA! A huge puff of steam burst up into my
face! Lost my aunt's oboe! Only 6 days of this madness left then I
have a 2 and a half week holiday!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Has anyone ever studied John Donne? You see, the exam is on Friday,
and we piss about in our English lessons so I don't know anything
about the poems! I can't even understand them, let alone talk about
the relevance of alchemy, iambic pentameter and the chain of being
(the spheres with rocks in the middle and then all sorts of angels
and stuff around it). Uh-oh, I've got the ryhthm again! It catches me
when I least expect it!
Oh God, it's 7.15pm and I've got 4 months' worth of psychology to
learn, minus Zimbardo, Selye's general adaptation syndrome and why do
people obey? - buffers, legitimate authority, graduated commitment,
the agentic state, passivity and one other one that I always forget.
Bugger!
Sorry, I'll go now and get varicose veins sitting on my bed cross-
legged for hours. dear me.
