We had to write our own extension scenes and then act them out in pairs I was George Croft and the Inspector.

My play is about a neighbour who gets annoyed by someone playing loud music.

Car Expert

We had to write about how Priestley used dramatic devices in order to build up mystery and suspense!

I'm being Sheila Birling tomorrow!

Lol!

AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH What a week....school has been nothing but accusation after accusation!!

It even reached a stage where a guy was even touching me up in lessons Very very worrying...

To make it worse, my teachers are being a right pain in the neck towards me which is really discouraging

Hope the next two days are better!

When I was younger I couldn't breathe without coughing and anyway my mum took me to the doctor and apparently I had really bad croup and had mum not been a nurse I would have been in hospital so I would get it checked out ASAP.

By Friday night, I have to have typed up one essay and at least planned another and done any extra homework. I don't get home til 5 ish tonight. I am really shattered and Thursday is my longest day, with peer mentoring at dinner, netball after school and now frees. If I am lucky, the music teacher will still be off, I really need some free time!

Well the whole week hasn't been bad but the last couple of days haven't been too great. I ran a google search of my name and someone's blog popped up, someone who I know. I always figured she didn't like me and now I know it's true because she said flat out that she hates me. She also said that my voice stinks and that I didn't deserve the part I got in our musical last summer. AND my choir/voice teacher thinks she's just the greatest thing ever and has even told her that she's her favorite student. I'm actually quite glad to be graduating because I don't think I could stand another year of it. I think what bothers me more than her hating me is my voice teacher liking her so much. *screams* Ok, I feel better now.

I would report this to whoever is hosting the blog.
The daughter of a friend had a similar problem when girls in her class set up a Yahoo group for people to post bad things about her.....
She got the name of the group which I infiltrated to get evidence as they didn't have internet at home.
As this was going on in school (you could tell from the time of the posts) they were informed and had the parents in to sort it out.

A what? Anyone like to tell me what a blog is? Sorry if this seems like a silly question.

An online biography

The term 'blog' comes from 'web log' - essentially an online journal in which people express their opinions about various matters, write about their day and so on.

Oh right! Thanks YAP and Carol.

NOT having a good day

Woke up 5am this morning with my left foot REALLY hurting and couldn't get back to sleep - now I can't walk properly (look like Quasimodo!) and I'm not sure I'll be able to drive. Went to the doctors first thing and he was baffled and didn't know what to suggest.

However at least it's not my right foot so I can still play the piano!

That doesn't sound too good Carol! Hope your foot is better soon. At least you can still play the piano! Are you able to drive?

Haven't tried yet - I'll probably just take lots of painkillers and hope for the best! I have to play for a ballet class this afternoon and then get back in time for teaching so I need to be able to drive!

I had a really sore foot last June. Three visits to two doctors couldn't find anything wrong. Then I went to reflexology and the reflexologist said it was caused by stress and anxiety. I was really stressed at the time about going in to hospital. She was right though. After I came out of hospital my foot wasn't sore at all!

That's great! I had a non-violin week... opps I wonder what's my teacher going to do. Wouldn't like to see his bad side on Monday.
But good thing that cold has gone, Noodle!

Thanks violin-ann. Still got the bronchitis chest thing though.

Better get practising before Monday or both you and your teacher will be here yelling aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!

before Monday... hmmm... that's tomorrow! Better get the earplugs out, Noodle!

My doctor gave me something for cough the last time and it got well within a few days. I can't remember the name of the pills though.. and I took Wood's peppermint cough mixture. The strawberry one for kids because it tastes better

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Ahhh! Now doesn't that feel better Helen?

Need to do essay avoiding it at the moment!

Was that on behalf of my teacher, Helen? Since he isn't into forums!

I am really tired! I have a lot of work to do but I have NCBF tomorrow. So, although I have extensions, I'll have a backlog of work - meh!

Nah... it was on behalf of me

Sheesh, what a terrible day it was

Got up extra early today to see a friend to do our rehersals, and all 3 buses were delayed Got there an hour late! Takes 3 hours as well! But what made it worse is that 1) her last oboe reed cracked halfway through one of the pieces we were doing, and 2) THREE of her viola strings snapped

On the way home I had to stop by at another friends house to pick up some piano music for her Grade 7 Flute accompaninents, took 3 hours instead of 2.

On the way home, I missed FIVE buses and got home EVENTUALLY at about 8:40, 2 hours later than normal.



IrisH - LoonY

Ah no! Bad day for the buses!

I'm gonna back out of here, seeing my day was quite good!

You can say that again!

How was your day Oddball?

IrisH - LoonY

Very good! Even though I had to give the flugel back to the band I was in (notice it's gone from my signature) they all really wanted me to stay...said I was welcome at any time. I would have love to have stayed, however it really munched away at my time....

I had the job of projectionist today. In our town, we have a cinema club, run by some adults around the town. My mum helps with this. The usual projectionist couldn't be there, so I stepped in. There's lots of equipment, the projectors old and a pain in the derrier. I managed to successfully set up all the sound equipement, microphone and DVD player, and the film went without a hitch!

I feel bad, about posting this here....it's a negative thread!!

Sounds interesting, what did you leave that involved you playing the flugelhorn?

IrisH - LoonY

Sounds like you've had the same kind of day as me Helen!

Aww dear Was it that bad noodle?

Yes, and getting worse by the minute..............

Oh no..

*scream*

thats better
having one of those evenings!

Earplugs ready and waiting violin-ann!

Don't get rid of them too quickly, Noodle. I've still got to do my practice today!

I can just see him standing there with his eyes forced open into some 'glare-y' kind of stare and saying, 'YOU REALLY NEED TO PRACTICE MORE!!!' Eeps.
I don't think AmandaL does that, does she katyjay? Well at least she has not been in here to scream yet, so that's a good sign!

And yes, why what happened today, Noodle?

Plain old brass band It was good though!

The bridge on my viola is bent So I'll have to take it back to its maker (not God ) and get it straightened! I hate being without my viola

Oh no! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone please make me do this essay!

And it's ok posting on here Oddball, it's time to show people positive things can happen after the negativity.

Earplugs at the ready katyjay! Perhaps AmandaL would like to borrow them!

violin-ann - Everything happened yesterday.....

(I'll pm you!)

Ok! You're here, Noodle! That's good. Then you'll need the earplugs soon! Once I introduce my teacher to the forums.. or maybe you'll need them for my 'arghhhh' after my class tomorrow!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
ggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I have come down with a bad cold 8 days before drac. spec. opens *coughs, splutters*

Awww! Not you as well!! Hope you'll be better soon!

Hopefully I'll be ok, for the opening. It is just twice as hard dancing and acting my part because everytime time I do soemthing I need to cough

I'm sure you will be. Just take it easy at rehearsals for now.

I'll try. Just very annoying. The time to be ill.........just typical.
