FOUR DAYS!!!!! need coffee, need coffee now. Had no weekend (rehearsals on Sunday) and I'll have Saturday and Sunday rehearsals this weekend. We open on WEDNESDAY! oh doom, please spare me but another week! Let me sample peace and relaxation once more I hate coffee. Like tea though. And I'm ultra-sensitive to caffeine, so I go bouncing off the walls with THAT mild liquid. And whatever you do, don't let me near the coffee icecream. Awww... but I like that stuff soo much! Padlocks on lockers? WTF!??! We get keys at the beginning of the year and have to pay two dollars (Aust.) to get a spare one if we lose it (obviously once we've found our keys, we give the spare back to the office) But that's silly.

Well, this is New Zealand. I went up to the student centre and asked if I could get a locker; they gave me an envelope and told me I had to put $5 in it and circle the block I wanted a locker in. Several weeks later I came back and they directed me to a Mr. Keene, and I had to go traipsing around the school in form time before I found him. He said I needed to buy myself a padlock and find myself a locker - when he asked which block I wanted, and I said 'F block', he laughed and said that I'd be lucky. He also said that the $5 would probably go towards a fancy lunch for himself. Feeling pissed off, I got a padlock with three duplicate keys, one of which I gave to my friend, one of which I've got on my key ring and the other....I'm not sure what I did with it.... - anyway, I have to go back and find Mr. Keene during a form class some time - a form class is the class you have to sit in for twenty minutes while the teacher reads out the notices etc. - and tell him I found a locker (in F block, btw) and tell him which one. I better do it during next week, because after that we have two exam weeks, and then sometime in Term Four he comes around and destroys the padlocks of all those lockers which aren't registered, which means they're open to all and sundry. I hate this system. Good luck with your play. I better stop procrastinating and resign myself to physics. I hate physics. ~ Elentari II

That sounds utterly ridiculous! I mean, I new New Zealanders were all totally nuts (worse than Tasmanians!!!), but really, that sounds totally crazy! Most I ever knew about physics is.. uh... e=mc squared. Damnèd formula, ruining Hiroshima and Nagasaki like that We have form room too, except with us it's called homeroom. hey look! A sheep! (Sorry, couldn't resist)

That's ridiculous! Pay to use a locker!?! What if no one felt like paying for one? Then the school would just have tons of lockers sitting around taking up space! Erm, sorry. ;D

How very silly. Imagine, paying for a locker you're only going to trash anyway. I've got wall-paper in mine (memory of a few years ago from someone now in year 12). Perhaps we do pay for lockers, and it's set up as part of our levies... ah, the strangeness of this world!

You take lockers too much for granted. We don't trash our lockers because they've cost us. We use them. Full-stop. End of story. No point in trashing them.
And I agree, it's pointless paying for them, but we do. And I still haven't told Mr. Keene which is mine, so I'll do that in the three days I have left of term after the mock exams.
Bye. I have to do some serious revision for English; I have an exam tomorrow afternoon.
And Maths and Spanish on Tuesday, Physics on Wednesday, Reassessment for Physics practical on Thursday, then some more heavy revision for Drama and History exams next week.
Namarie, noldonyar.

Ouch, you got sunstroke? Whoa, that doesn't sound good! How?!
I think it would be fun to have a locker... It would be kind of funny to have a "contest" with yer friends to see who could keep theirs the cleanest... or the coolest... ;D
What is y'all's busiest day of the week? Mine is probably Tuesday. I have most 'a my classes then, like Spanish, Biology, fencing, and mabye drama. Then all my regular schoolwork.

How'd you get sunstroke in... uh... wherever you are? I'm sorry, but I immediately assume that anywhere outside of Australia is cold. Or are you in Australia? I get sunstroke quite frequently during summer. I've said it before and I'll say it again: damned ancestory!
Oh, I didn't literally mean TRASH the lockers... I just meant that we keep them rather messily, and some people graffiti them, or leave the door open so the hinges break. Hmm... maybe there was something in what you said, actually. I don't. I close my locker, but I'm a nerd and a geek.

Seven subjects, five lessons a day in each and they rotate every two weeks. Physics eight times a fortnight, the others seven times. Physics exam this morning. Oh my......I feel terrible. Not good not good not good. I have to pass. I must pass. If I don't pass I'll have to take it again next year. NOOO!!!!! Must pass. Must revise. Oh help. And a physics practical reassessment tomorrow afternoon. If anyone wants to see what I have to do, go to www.nzqa.govt.nz/ncea/Level Two Physics today. All achieved subjects. I took English Monday (L2), Spanish (L1) and Maths (L2) yesterday. External papers, not internal. Drama (L1) and History (L2) next week. Better get ready. Namarie, noldonyar. Goodbyeeeeeeeeeee!!!! ~ Elentari II
