ravenSo, the net connection is behaving for the time being, mainly because I have sacrificed my sanity before its altar and my homework time before its flames. I am currently doing everything I can offline and only trusting the connection for a few seconds at a time.
I have had a long day. Yesterday was better because I skived the morning and went in at lunchtime (three double frees, so I think it's excusable). Today, however, was a full school day. I used to do this every single goddamn day last year - I don't know how I did it, looking back. Now I only have to do it once a week, on Tuesday, and still complain.
Anyway. Today, I had a mock-mock-practical. The mock is next week and the real thing the week after that, so this I suppose counts as the mock of a mock. And I managed to do it without screwing it up too much. I may have said on occasion how unutterably bad I am at Chemistry practical, and I am frankly terrified of the real thing. I just know I will do things wrong, drop things, forget to wash things out, run out of chemicals, smash things, all that sort of thing. It's humiliating.
Today, I was perched on the edge of the bench, laughing at something, when Rola told me, "You're enough to make anyone paranoid." Maybe I am. Maybe I exude waves of pessimism. Nevermind, they get used to it. In any case, the practical will soon be over, unlike my other exams. My AQA timetable came through today. Ick.
Nothing interesting actually happened, looking back. I came home, watched Stargate, washed my hair and while doing so, mentally composed a fandom rant or two which I may or may not post.
Blah.
