It takes a while to update the feed on the home page. That’s fine, I can deal with that. [Breathes deeply]

Well, I am tired after all that homework.

Let’s liven things up with a link then shall we – what about Rhetorical, where you can make your computer shout whatever you type back at you in a variety of accents. Great fun!

OK, today was the best school day for a very long time.

At break time outside, suddenly a police helicopter starts circling and descending. And yes, they shout to us on a megaphone! Running around along I witness the best example of the school coming together as over 1000 kids gather at the end of the playground. There’s a boy on the roof – and he’s got a gun!

Well, no, he didn’t really have a gun. But he was on the run from the police and broke onto school grounds, where someone lent him a school uniform top to ‘blend in’ (not the most intelligent idea to then climb on a roof then).

The police manage to evacuate us all inside where, amazingly, our class had one of the best views of the boy on the roof there is. Even the teacher was snapping photos on his camera phone. Electrolysis of aluminium lay forgotten. This was fun!

While the rather anti-climax ending (he was persuaded to walk off where he was taken into custody) was disappointing it still managed to be a brilliant day. Although I do question the mentality of us, when we believe someone has a gun our first response is “Run as close to him as we can! I wanna see!”

In a shameless rip off from Nic I’ve decided to list my favourite TV shows cause, you know, that’s what personal web sites are supposed to do!

So check it out, and then complain about my lack of originality.

Oh and I’m giving you (especially you, Coastguard) early warning – THERE ARE SOME NEW WINDOWS UPDATES. SO INSTALL NOW. (Well actually I don’t have any cause they’re Windows XP stuff, *sniff*)

OK, well better get back to my annoying History essay about Women and Students in the USA. Yipee…

A certain person, let’s just call them Mr. X, has decided to pretend they don’t care about school, or exams. Great, great. But why then walk around like a depressive screaming at people? I thought people who didn’t care where nice, easy-going free spirited hippies?

Screaming “I don’t care!” means, of course, that you do care. So please stop wasting our time.

In other news – we did our best piece of drama (and it was funny too!) in a looong time, and our regular teacher wasn’t there to see it. Great. Well if you’re reading this just give us a commendation each please, it was bloody brilliant and we actually got people to laugh for a change.

Finally – Anthony Ainley has died. Famous to Doctor Who fans as one of the actors who played ‘The Master’ you can read a tribute to him on Doctor Who’s leading fan site here. A sad day.
