I think sometimes God just likes to put on morality plays to teach us to not be bad people. You know to get rid of a vice or a bad quality. God called his latest "Norris' bottling up". You see, I don't like to moan often. I'd say only Ajay hears me moan so when EVERYTHING goes wrong it takes a lot to keep it in... which you shouldn't do. I could write an essay of what went wrong. Easier to write it in steps
DAY 1
* 1:00- Get home to get ready for the Leaver's Ball- OOPS! Locked out
* 1:15- Sarah's in Leeds, everyone else is out. Norris goes to get hair cut.
* 2:00- Hair cut, nice and short but still locked out.
* 2:30- Decide to go see Gran. Show off tux and other such things.
* 3:00- About to leave, people ask for tux to be worn so have to get ready at Gran's
* 3:15- Get changed.
* 3:20- Get changed back.
* 3:30- Get changed back AGAIN because her friend didn't see the first time.
* 3:40- Head home
* 3:50- People STILL out!
* 4:15- Nicki FINALLY gets home.
* 4:20- Norris gets ready with only 40 minutes to eat, shower, dress AGAIN and drink.
* 4:50- Car arrives EARLY! (I like efficiency but this was bad)
* 4:55- Arrive in Staindrop Road
* 5:10- Find Beckie's house!!! It seemed that long even if it wasn't.
* 5:15-6:00- Relaxed cos I knew nothing else could go wrong.
* 6:00- Then it was the Leaver's Ball. I presume it went very well because I can't remember half of it and what I can remember was great. Nice food, nice company :-)- Again thanks to the lovely people I went with. Can't wait for the photos! I looked DAMN good. Didn't get my kebab :-( Aww well, they played Gold!
* 12:45- Thought about going to bed
* 1:00- Went to bed
* 1:25- Nearly asleep...
* 1:30- Thanks Parge! Of all the times to get a text...
* 1:45- Decided to reply
DAY 2
Ok so it started already but bear with me
* 10:05- Mrs Creek says "If the coursework isn't handed in complete, you fail" Direct Quote!
* 11:50- Finished the last task.
* 12:00- Disc with stuff to print won't work
* 12:05-11:40- Roam around the school trying computers to no avail.
* 1:00- Get home... Still no luck!
* 1:00 onwards... Go mentally insane
* 2:00- Get back to school... without bag!
* 2:20- Ring Sarah to bring bag from Mr.Ward's office.
* 2:21- Get told I HAVE to go to English or there'll be hell to pay.
* 2:23- Decide I'm doing business.
* 2:25- Mrs Brown decides I'm going to English.
* 2:27- After recieving a phone call from my mum (I didn't ask, I in fact asked her not to) Mrs Creek comes out
with a spiel about how I'm "mis-informed" and I now have til Monday.
* 2:30- Go to English
* 2:35- Walk out of class cos the stress has gotten higher than a resident of Amsterdam on a bank holiday.
* 2:37- Blub like a baby.
* 2:40- Stop blubbing like a baby.
* 4:00- Get home after English and phone in sick at work.
* 4:20- Go to collect my bag which is in reception cos I never found Sarah.
* 4:50- Take back tux.
* 5:10- Go to bed.
Nothing to do tomorrow so 3rd time lucky methinks.
Thanks to Ajay, Beckie, Mic and Pargy for a great night last night.
Thanks to Nelson and Julian today for at least trying to stop me exploding right there in the Silent Study Area. You're right Ajay about me limiting mankind to about 4 people... today I've learnt that I may still only trust the minimum but there are good'ns out there.
And thanks to Ajay and Pargy for listening to me ramble this evening. I really needed to see how Parge and Mic's business went down and the fact that Ajay managed to calm me down, make me laugh for the first time today and remind me that I was so tired I kept repeating myself. I needed it.
*Hugs to all* I'm going back to bed soon. I damn sure deserve it.
