The rain still continues here at the moment. It's been pouring in the past few hours. Funny thing really, it got so flooded to the point where the school actually sent out an email to all parents advising them that if they wish to get their children out early, they may do so. More on that later.
Life and FaithWith L&F first up, today's lesson was meant to be the religious one. Strangely enough, our teacher was absent, so we spent the lesson with a Substitute watching a video about surrogacy and embryos and all that stuff. We had to fill out this sheet asking questions about the video, and I'm am just so surprised I managed to last about 80 minutes through that shit.
MathsMaths. Maths, Maths, Maths. What can I say really? It's much too easy now. While the entire class was going through questions on their worksheets, I spent the majority of the lesson reading through Fallout Wikia printouts on various things such as
Anchorage Front Life and
Fallout 3 General Tips, List of Perks, List of Skills and so on. So in otherwords, I spent my Maths reading through gaming articles. It's not that bad really, I had already finished what everyone else was attempting, about last week really.
EnglishEnglish was alright. We watched a video of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X's speechs and compared the two. It actually went by pretty fast. It was also about near the end of the lesson that our teacher received a phone call and had to leave us for about 15 minutes to attend to some mysterious 'incident' in his office. He wouldn't tell us what. While he was gone (we were stuck with another sub), a school-wide message notified us about students wishing to leave early due to the exceptionally bad weather. This got everyone slightly confused.
At lunchtime, things were a bit hectic. Students could be seen all leaving and others walking to the Student Reception to get ready to leave. While I ate lunch with some friends, we all discussed what was going on. It seemed kind of eerie at the time, as the school was about 1/4 of the amount of people usually by then. My brother managed to earn us an early trip home by sneaking a call to our Mother. Unfortunately for us, we soon found out that our public transportation (Trains) were down at the time, and we would have to find alternative transportation home. Thankfully for us, we had a friend offer to take us home.
It was quite funny at the office. Receptionists were very insistent on ensuring the parents that this was not in any way an evacuation. I laughed at the concept which was obviously giving the receptionists a little bit of stress. Soon enough, we went to our final class, awaiting our call from the student reception about our friend's parents ready to take us home. We had Chemistry.
ChemistryWith such a hectic day, there were only about 5 (including myself and my brother) present at the lesson, soon to be 2 with myself and Adam leaving and another organising arrangements. Damn, Chemistry will just have to wait another day. =/
We'll, we got home about 2 hours earlier than we normally would. YAY! I managed to sneak about half-an-hour of Fallout 3 before Dad got home, and am eager to actually start Operation Anchorage for Fallout 3. I only managed to get it installed, but I am yet to see if it will actually work/activate on the game yet. Best of luck.
