Challenging Pople at Physics

You know this about me. Read the last post. Or the one before. Or probably the one before that.

I am not change’s number one fan.

But today, things are bothering me more than usual. I have to decide whether to go on a maths trip, which would mean missing two out of the 24 hours I have left of French. Which got me thinking…we have about 18 hours of Fizzicks left. About 36 of maths. Basically, we’ve got 12 weeks of normal lessons, you do the maths.

I was walking by the old lab 3 today, and everything had been taken out. The tables, the sinks, the whiteboard everything. There was the huge periodic table, torn, and lying crumpled in a pile of rubble. I found this very symbolic. And as much as I love the new labs, looking at the old ones and remembering things kind of breaks my heart. I mean, the place where the famous words : “wind is not for burning!” were uttered. Where we spilled blue liquid on the floor. Where we researched comets. Gone.

I feel like I have been doing what I’m doing now forever.

My hair smells of apples.

EDIT: Furthermore, when I’m older and have to choose a job (or, you know, now, according to those Connexions magazines we are always having thrust at us in PSHE), I am going to choose one that I really hate, so that when I leave it won’t hurt so much. None of this “pick a job that you love” nonsense for me.

EDIT: EDIT: I read a quote that the lottery is a tax on people who are bad at maths. This amused me, but not my mother when she went to buy a lottery ticket and I informed her of this.

I’ll be brief, because I am doing my physics. No, really, I am. Anyway…

Did anyone ever used to watch The Wild House? It was on on a Thursday afternoon, or something like that, and I used to watch it every single week after school.

Looking at reviews on the internet, it doesn’t seem to have been too popular, but I loved it, and I miss it, and you can only find about 2 pictures on the whole of the internet.

I still think about it every time that somebody mentions David Attenborough. Or megaphones. Or doodled birthday cards.

Clearly it had a big influence on me, but I can’t find any clips or anything, and it’s driving me crazy.

I want the whole 3 series on DVD, dammit. Crazy grannies, rebellious cousins and all.

Did anyone else watch it? Or have a similar problem?

Tsk. I bet David Attenborough never had this trouble…
