Well, today was a fairly impressive improvement over the past couple of days.
I managed to keep a(n only slightly fixed) smile through the morning. Black was equally amused by some of the questions that I remembered from that road rules book. One of the more classic examples:
84. Is it possible that you may still have alcohol in your body the next morning after you have been drinking?
a. Yes.
b. No.
c. Only if it was already morning when you went to sleep.
Hmmm... Could it be... 5?
I asked my physics teacher a question that is apparently year twelve not year eleven work. Even though I think we went over it, at least briefly, last year or possibly the year before.
Ancient was very very amusing. We were teacherless... Well, except for Ms Minutti, who only appeared twice, briefly. So, we ended up with Paul D singing songs at the rest of us, commonly in a worse singing voice than most people have for karaeoke (or however you spell it), and not knowing half the words. He didn't know half the songs I suggested.
Recess was fun. I chatted to assorted people. Apparently, Roland told his family that my parents were forcing me to go camp when I didn't want to; his mother offered to put me up for the three nights, and his sister offered to forge the note to the school so my parents didn't realise. *giggles* Ain't he/they sweet? Not many people can say THAT about their friends. Unfortunately, I felt oblidged to turn it down. We then had an in-depth discussion about how bad yr 11 as a grade is. One of the weirdest moments was this interchange: (For those who don't understand the reference in my line, go read PvP.)
Me: Santa's true identity is Superman!
Steson: That would be disturbing. Seeing Santa with his underwear on the outside, I mean.
Roland: Ohmygod! Steson's got a fetish for Santa Claus!
*cracks up* He taunted him for the rest of the day about it.
During Maths, we got the tests back. I got 80%; solid, if not outstanding. Certainly a lot better than a fair proportion of the class did.
We FINALLY performed the Extension play today. I'm SO glad that's over and done with. I think we confused the class with some of the plot twists. I don't know how we did, but we almost HAD to have done better than some; for a start, we at least semi-knew our lines. Apparently, Black went and asked the teacher what we got, but they were only willing to tell him that we passed. Sounds good to me.
Lunch was also fun. We all exulted that the Ext task was finally finished. Then Wendy wandered around trying to get everyone to sign a petition, without actually telling them what the petition was for, aside from the label "Steson Petition" up the top. I cornered Steson and asked him what it was about; apparently, she was trying to force him to put something in particular on his Jersey. What was most amusing was Steson's reactions to this. She wandered off and got anyone she could to sign it; half the people probably had no idea who he was. He was complaining bitterly about it. I asked him if he was actually going to acknowledge it. he said no, so I said there was no problem. Heh.
SDD was fun, but irritating at the same time. In that, I was trying to add another feature to my program, but it completely ignored half the code I'd put in there, for no apparent reason. I felt guilty about asking Black, coz he had his own to work on.
Sub Command8_Click
Form2.visible = True
starter = Val(Text7.Text)
X = 1
Form2.Text1.Text = 1
For i = 1 To (starter / 2)
If (starter / X) = Int(starter / X) Then
Form2.Text1.Text = Form2.Text1.Text + ", " + X
End If
X = X + 1
Next i
Form2.Text1.Text = Form2.Text1.Text + ", " + Text7.Text
End Sub
I think that's pretty close to correct syntax (ie, what I have in code at school). If there's any major errors, I blame it half on my lack of skill with VB and half on the fact that said code is on a computer about 3 kilometres away from my current position. Suggestions? I'd tell you what it's supposed to do, but it'd be much more fun for you to figure it out on your own.
Caught the bus home. The year nines were amused by my story of Black saying "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but whips and chains excite me" to his maths teacher. Apparently, she looked disturbed, and went back to her work. (Sticks and Stones? That's the New Found Glory album I'm listening to!) They also liked my tale about Roland's family voluteering to take me on.
Got home, had afternoon tea, and then got to work on 'homework'... *coughs*
Heh. Today had a lot more class than a lot recently.
