The US of A.

I feel, dear readers, that I have neglected to mention something.

Tomorrow morning, I'm off from jolly ol' Manchester to Florida.

Yep. I've packed up the pigeons, put the brother in the kennel, taken the parents off the leashes, and I'm off. Down to London tomorrow, flights to Atlanta the day after, then to Orlando. Well, I'm a typical tourist. We've got to go to Orlando. I'll be sure to take some pictures of the parents looking at the upside down map for the Eiffel tower, and the like.

So I won't be blogging for two weeks, I'm afraid. Monday the 21st of April is the very earliest I'll manage to blog.

But anyway. This is the FUTURE. I rarely think about that. TODAY.

Today was "Citizenship day" at school. Let me tell you, most useless day of the year. I imagine conversations between teachers went something like this.

"Year 11 are all behind on coursework."
"HOW behind?"
"A few weeks, I'd say."
"Right... We're gonna have to sort this out... Some of them might catch up. Let's throw a citizenship day, to get them a bit further back."

Citizenship day is the day where we come in and get told for seven hours about "citizenship". We had a drugs one (we merely learnt the positive effects of drugs, they didn't really bother cover the negative ones), a sex one (we leant not to have sex, ever, or we'll die) and other ones JUST AS USEFUL. Me and some friends settled by playing computer games for the day.

I stabbed myself in the eye with a pencil. Accidentally, I might add. I was in a taecher's room who'd previously got me excluded for a week. It did not go down well when I shouted a naughty word very loudly across the room. But hey, I thought I had no left eye any more, I think one "Flip!" wasn't completely out of place.

Well, this is where I leave you, I suppose. Assuming I'm not dead, and still have all appendages necesarry to write, I should blog again on the 21st opf April.

See you then.
