Oct. 21st, 2005 12:55 pmI saw a dead rat in the road today. It was all flat and everything, and obviously quite fresh as there were bloody guts and an unidentifiable red organ lying in the road next to it. That street is such a creature deathtrap. There was a similarly flat pigeon there a while ago.
Today in yearmeetings we had Drama. Tee Hee. Ms Young informed us that we were no longer allowed to sell confectionary at school for fundraising. Thus we have to pay for the Year Twelve luncheon ourselves. It'sthirty dollarseach, which comes out to a dollar a week during the next three school terms - but a bunch of people objected violently, probably on principle. According to Min and Ruxi it's an Asian thing, the attitude to money - even though they can afford it, they feel it's un-neccessary to pay it. Also, Min firmly believes that the grade below us will be cheapass and get us a cheap Year Twleve Luncheon, because the leftover money goes to jerseys and yearbooks and things.
And THEN on top of all that, the Youngster started going on about how our grade wasn't loyal enough because we have lots of Groups and some people were bitching or something. I mean, I personally don't know anyone who isn't friends with anyone outside their Group, and frankly I don't think our grades bitchiness is the teachers business.
Anyway, everyone hates Teh Man, blah blah blah, see how much more interesting this post was when I was talking about the dead rat?
