It's over it's over it's over
Well, I'm back from an absolutely mad weekend, and ready to spend the whole of Sunday recuperating. I became a little too drunk for my own good, and I lost a lot of inhibitions as the night progressed (so Many Apologies to those who stayed the night and had to put up with...well, yeah :P). It's a once-in-an-A-Level occurrence, I promise. Louise, I have your shoes.
Anyway, it feels very, very strange having absolutely nothing to do with school anymore. If you think about it, you spend an enormous part of your first 16+ years of your life in school. Assuming you start school when you're 5, and you spend an average of, oh, 7 hours a day at school. There are approximately 300 days in any one school year (297 for our school, if you want to be anal), which is...2079 hours a year. 13 years of school? 27027 hours in a school environment. And that's not counting the influence of school, i.e. hours spent doing homework, research, attending ridiculous sports day events, putting on shows...my life in the past 16 years has been absolutely consumed by school.
And now...no more.
Damn, that feels weird.
Damn, that feels good.
At some point I should probably try and make a list of things I want to do this summer, before I get completely sidetracked and start sleeping and/or clubbing away my entire summer holidays or something. That's no fun. I definitely want to go climb Mt. Kinabalu over the summer. And I think I need to pick up my paintbrushes again. And I need people to recommend me good books to read, as I have exhausted my library. My little sister rather cattily told me today that she's never seen me bored. While this is not an entirely accurate observation, it's true that I don't really get bored very easily...but then, I'm unfortunately one of those people who can lose an hour staring unblinkingly off into space and lost in thought. This generally makes people think I'm a little barmy, but such is the price of nonconformity.
And in other news, I am spending tonight putting up photos from the Sixth Form graduation dinner yesterday, because I'm completely knackered from last night's inebriated party exertions, so keep an eye out for that later tonight :)
It's over it's over it's over!!!
Oh also, happy birthday to my darling sister Kristel, who turns 21 today and is therefore considered "legal" by any legal standard in any country in the world. I rang her up today, and she was already hungover, or so I presume, from her voice. Hah. Happy birthday, dear :)
