Anna's mindful (and mindless) ramblings

Anonymous asked: Not a question, but, Greek is awesome! You rock! I recently started watching it to try and catch up before the 4th season gets too much underway. XD

yeah it really is! :) I’m watching quite a bit at the moment but I’m still not caught up with the 4th season

I really don’t have a clue anymore, what my days were like this far back. It was a Tuesday… So I’ll go on that
French, our lesson was unexpectedly cancelled so we spent it in B hall gossiping mostly. The main topic of conversation was a girl two years below, who’s 14 and has found out she’s two or three months pregnant and her mum’s fine with her keeping the baby, as is her boyfriend. This is a girl whose road I used to live on as a child… It was all very odd.
In Economics we did about multipliers…

I think it was break, though I can’t be sure, when i found out why Jack hadn’t been there the day before. It turns out that at the weekend Jonathan’s dad walked out on them, with no warning whatsoever and so Gaby (his girlfriend) and Jack (his best friend) had taken Monday off to support Jonathan. I remember seeing the poor guy, glancing at him as Gaby broke the news and I’ve never seen anyone look quite so pathetic, it was horrible, he was completely broken.

English Literature was about a Hardy poem, ‘Your Last Drive’. We were put into groups and for once I was glad of an old friend. Aviva and I fell out when we were both 13. It probably had something to do with the fact that she was my first kiss and then I lied to her about having a boyfriend and it all got really nasty and it ended up in us not speaking for a few years. Despite this I was so pleased to have her in my group because apart from me there was Hannah  (who’s going out with the sixth form meathead and I remember was covered in foundation and so someone i really share very little in common with) and Eddie (who has always seemed to resent me for getting better grade than me and is sharp faced, sharp witted and uppity). Aviva and I now seem to be on friendly terms and analysing the poem wasn’t as bad as first expected because Eddie was being witty and cooperative and a general discussion about the ever-safe topic of universities seemed to float polite conversation well enough. It was to this tune that Aviva let slip that Joely (a close friend of both of ours, thought closer to Aviva than I) had told her that two years after an affair Joely’s parents were finally divorcing. I can remember that we got very little of the actual work done

In History we did about foreign policy in terms of Henry VII and Burgundy and as an add on a bit to do with Ireland also. A note heavy lesson, so little else of interest was said or done.

It was a Monday so i had French and we did about drug addiction and a short story about a drug addiction getting worse, which reminded me of my ex Ben, who was always telling me stories about his junkie ‘friends’

English Lit, we didn’t even hand in the detailed analysis of Enduring Love that we’d done for homework.

Free, Economics and History at Sixth Form. I do remember only vaguely that Jack wasn’t there in History, and Luke telling me not ask why because something bad had happened. Not a great stimulant to my imagination, I remember trying to figure out who might have died and fretting terribly. I’m fairly sure Mr Howse wasn’t there for most of the history lesson for one reason or another because we did textbook work about how the five year plans were achieved ans very few notes were made. My homework diary tells me we did a lesson on drug addiction in French and read some article or other in Economics and handed in some English work which I seem to remember we peer assessed (everyone was disappointed because we wanted it marking properly). Oh and we had a vocab test in French.

Plus I set up a SnogMarryAvoid account… ugh, I kind of hate myself a little bit for it but at least it gives me some relief from boredom. Oh and apparently the day before I made treacle sponge… YUM

Oh and I must have had a Viola lesson.

I really have no idea. May have gone to church…? May not have. This might also have been the Sunday I watched 8 hours of Greek… Probably. I must have procrastinated.

Saturday I was meant to get up early to fold and envelope leaflets. But I’d stayed up late the night before, probably watching Greek, and so I didn’t rise til about 12.30. What I hadn’t been told was that I was meant to be up early because mum and I were going for lunch with Zoe and Elaine. Thankfully both of them pitched in with the folding and we were able to mosey on down to Signature (boutique and steak house?!) to eat. It was there that we were served a delicious lunch by an equally delicious (and dyslexic, mum informed us) waiter, Josh I think. The rest of the afternoon was spent folding leaflets and a brief trip over to dad’s to watch tv concluded the day.
