The past two weeks were spent staying back at school till 3 p.m. saying my elocution piece a million times. My piece happened to be an extract from Artemis Fowl and the Time Paradox by Eoin Colfer. When I first elocuted my piece in front of the class 11 girl in charge of my category, she stared at me as if I was speaking in Hebrew. My piece had two kids and their older brother, Artemis.It was a part in which Artemis tries to teach his two brothers,Beckett and Myles (who happened to be two years old and twins), a few restaurant terms. The excerpt follows with the mayhem that follows considering the fact that they were kids and barely understood what their 15 year old brother was trying to say.
After I said my piece the girl asked me,"So, what is the moral of the piece?"
Those two weeks saw me eating my lunch at 4p.m. and studying till 10p.m. and then practically passing out.
After that was over, I thought i could breathe a sigh of relief..... BUT no no no, the world wasn't happy with what I had done.BAG LOADS of homework came after that and just to put the cherry on top I caught a cold. AGAIN!!
Really I can't take it anymore.There should be a way out of this dark hole of despair.To make things worse, there is a science exhibition coming up and EVERYBODY at school has to take part.I'm doing chemistry.And guess what our topic is? It's glass.GLASS?Really what experiment can you do with that?So now I have to go searching high and low for experiments.But the silver lining is that our teacher agreed to change our topic.Phew....at least one good thing!
I really envy my sister. 1 and a half months of holiday! WOW! I could KILL for that!
With everything in such a mess, I haven't been able to do anything properly.I've been reading a book for a WHOLE month! I haven't even been practicing my Mandolin!I'm just too tired to do ANYTHING!All I do is listen to hard rock and rap music and eat and do homework and sleep.
Just my luck that I haven't even been able to watch a SINGLE proper match in the football world cup!Now Portugal's out of the tournament so I don't even have Cristiano Ronaldo to ogle at!
Things just couldn't get any worse.Life as a cat seems like a good option now.
