I apologise for my absence. It has been a depressing week-> pts, tests, getting back tests, etc. and on top of it all, I got sick. Running a temperature puts you into a very surreal mood, especially on monday when I had pe. And you're into 'I have to take more liquids' mode and feeling fairly sleepy, so getting to sleep on time isn't a problem((: And when you're learning bio and sick at the same time, you're more worried about who might catch what you've got than how feverish/delerious you are, which is good. Having a fever makes one do stupid things. I drank so much water I had to pee almost every hour! --" It started with a sore throat on friday and today is wednesday and I'm fairly ok! yay but I'm still sniffling.

Thankyou everyone for all the birthday smses/ tags/ presents/ cards :D and happy birthday to all august babies! My birthday didn't exactly come smack in the exam period, this year- a first! I got a blackforest cake with lots of cream, and if I get at least a 85% for math (I reallyreally hope I do!) I 'll go get myself a spicegirls cd. Yesyes the spicegirls are so 90s, but um retro is in! i.e. spicegirls are in! This is not a very convincing argument. Or I'll go get anansi boys/ thursday for my reading pleasure during the september holidays, even though the september holidays are for mugging. Because I can't afford christina aguleria[sp?] , Panic! at the disco, Snow Patrol cds etc.

I apologise for the brevity of this post, but history is tomorrow and I cant fail so I'll update after that. yearmates are love!
