returning to school for the last 3 days of this week has been kinda laid back, mostly because there has been a severe shortage of lessons, what with aom in ireland (its cold there according to his email), IOPs during strand 2, and free TOK lessons...
i've practically only had history and chem, but these hardly count 'cos history was just documentary watching and chem was just an overdue test...

wednesday was what should have been the final interclass debate adjudication, but the sec3s weren't available (according to the email i was cc-ed from the english department), so there's one more next week...

thursday was my level's charity cafe day, and it was tonnes of fun...
i didn't think i'd wanna skip any classes, so i only went down to sell during the first half of the 160minute break i had smack in the middle of the day...
i have the dubious honour of selling the last box (or at least 9 or 12 of the eclaires in it), which deon/lucy/me bought and shared with some of the other of the point.12 ppl, but other than that i just spent most of the time counting cash...
oh and the apple crumble that elliot baked was apparently a hit...
uncharacteristic of me, i also bought paul's class' brownie (he promised it would be moist), and gareth's class' pastry thingy...
the next half of the break was spent in the debate room with sean/deon doing work...

today i spent the first period (chinese teachers are away doing oral exams, so that's free too) playing hearts with daryl/tedkin/justin...
and since chem was free, i spent it at the sac with mel/daryl chatting before pe...
although it was raining, hyc still insisted that the class swim, but since i was with the other land pe ppl, we just sat around in a circle talking for that hour...
oh and allow me to lament about the ridiculous unfairness that's going on with regards to my class' PE lessons...
because i have had the misfortune of being landed with hyc, the waterpolo teacher, the class has been swimming for like since the second half of the year began (ok its waterpolo, but no diff)... so it was natural for me to assume that once the other classes began swimming, we would be rotated to doing other activities that the other classes have been doing now, like tennis or something... but NOOOO, its still swimming...
i fell disgustingly cheated and antagonized, seriously...
then it was math investigation briefing (due the monday after next, super stress)
sean and i went to sushi tei at holland v after that, our regular post-week hangout, and after ordering, i looked across the counter and spotted yewjin/javier, so we went to join them for lunch... funny coincidence... poor deon couldn't join us 'cos he was doing council duty for custodians' day which consisted of washing bathrooms...

you never knew,
John.
