'The devil made me say those things. I will remove the devil from my head with a bullet.'


Sometimes one has to wonder at how gullible people are, and why we need to take things so far.

And then you remember why.

Because it's just so incredibly funny.

Now, you remember me mentioning us playing evil tricks on Ms Sturgeon?

Well, we invented a word [Well, Dave Ball invented it, apparently], oxyteutonic.

So far, everyone [almost everyone] has been using it in their presentations on World Aid Organisations.

Everytime she asks 'What does that word mean?'

Lots of incomplete explainations follow, the dominant one being, 'oh it was just on the site miss...'

It's been going on for so long, that I honestly believed that she was just playing along with us..until today.

I did my presentation on Oxfam [after a few hilarious PPT's] and when it finished, she asked, 'what does Oxfam stand for, Liam?'

I had no idea, because I couldn't find any reference to the origin of their names on the site.

About then Michael Price pipes up, in an obviously sarcastic tone, 'Maybe the Ox stands for Oxytuetonic?'

'That's exactly what I was thinking.'

She was deadly serious, there wasn't a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

*shakes head*

So so sad.

We've almost convinced her to ask an english teacher about the word, lol.

That aside, today was Orientation day and we led around the school the young year 7 hopefuls and their families.

I don't mind doing it, but I probably needed those English and Maths lessons..

Ahem. Anyhow, principles from the musical were in-costume and character, and were gallivanting around the campus, acting as ushers and representatives of the cultural department.

'twas pretty cool.

Today was the fourth and last time I'll ever do a Downlands Orientation day. Excuse me while I have a little cry..

;p

In online news..Red Vs Blue are coming to Australia!!!

Eee!

x.X;

*heart palpitates*

One problem, they're going to Melbourne.

What? Why? Nobody likes Melbourne! The Beatles originally didn't have to go to Melbourne, they only went when some people complained!

..wait..that was Adelaide. Hm.

Same thing!

No-one likes them! They're all wet and cold and evil and filled with...um..stuff!

Brisbane is better and closer to me.

Not that it's the reason why RvB need to go to Brisbane, the reasone why they need to go to Brisbane is purely for their benefit..not mine..

Now I'll just nonchalantly show this picture of my associate Edward with his*cough*their cat.

Let that be a warning..

*shifty*
