SCONES!
Today was actually reasonably enjoyable, for a Day 1. Mad Hatter Party quite mad but quite fun and full of scones which were delicious once I had managed to wrestle the can of cream off that drama teacher man and persuade him to let ME put cream on my OWN scones.
Got physics prac back, went well. Average too high though, we're all going to be scaled down. Hate that.
Instead of PE today
sanguia and I were allowed to have a STUDY PERIOD in the LIBRARY where we met up with
izumihydra and did... not too much. Ah well.
After school I was raced home to get ready for skating and found that my mother had bought, for a treat, for afternoon tea...
I'm not kidding. I ate them anyway, didn't want to hurt her feelings. But I won't be touching those things for a WHILE, believe me.
Then; skating! My feet hurt a bit but the skates aren't too bad - a bit stiff so my jumps and spins will take a while to relearn. Spent most of the session finding my feet and all of my lesson doing edges (turns and things on one foot) and almost knocked someone over doing a backwards catchfoot spiral (um... you go backwards on one foot then grab your skate with one hand... hard to explain). But it felt so GOOD to be skating after five years away! And everyone welcomed me back! And it was EXERCISE and the endorphins have been kickin' around my body all evening and I feel GOOD and FIT and like I should be on an ad that says "trim, taut and terrific!" or something. I realise that this is slightly deluded of me after only one session of moderate extertion but HEY it's a start.
Also SENT SHIELDS TO EUJAR *hint hint* and wrote up more physics and did an hour's worht of bloody maths homework. Am off to have long bath and read. I think I deserve it.
