Worlds Apart
Tonight was the night of our Sixth Form Presentation Evening. It's been ages wince I even last thought about the last two years of my education, let alone recieve an award for any of it.

It was nice seeing everyone again. Well... some of everyone, anyway. Lots of students were still at University, but the people most important to me were there. And I got to talk to them for what I've probably accepted will be the last time. I've no doubt I'll see them around in various places and I'll have their numbers on my phone for some time to come, but I'm not sure I'll ever actually organise anything with them again. I've changed a lot now, and the friends at college are really great. I don't mean to sound like I'm shirking off friends- I'd never do that.

But sometimes you just.. grow apart, you know? It's not an intentional thing, it just happens. If you're surrounded by people you don't know and who don't know you, you can develop some really strong friendships. I guess that's why the friends people make at University can generally be some of the strongest you ever make. If you're left on your own with people who already have their own friendships set up, it's a different matter. I thought the Intensive Acting course would be like that, but I'm really glad it's not turned out to be that way.

So, the High School's last word in my life was pretty much as I expected it to be- a bit of an anti-climax. I did get a £15 award for my Biology, though. Not because I did very well, but because my teachers obviously felt I was deserving of one for being conscientious and well-behaved. And I'm certainly not complaining about getting money, hehe ^_^

The ceremony was disgustingly sports-orientated, and that's mostly because of the school's firm grounding in sports already. Most of the standard opening pep-talk was about sportsmen and women. The man had taken random 'inspiring' (read: corny and perdictable) quotes from people like Johnny Wilkinson, Ellen MacArthur and Wayne Gretzky and bundled them together in a speech. There was no life to the ceremony. We get up to more interesting things in our Improvisation classes. I was even tempted to do something mildly impressive as I walked across the stage to get my thingummybob, but decided against it for fear of actually making people laugh. Can't do that at these things, oh no.

But yeah... it was weird being back at the High School, even if it was only for an hour or so. Part way through I felt a sudden feeling of... I don't know what it was. I was afraid of going back, really. I'm at college now and that's where I want to stay. It's a far nicer place and I'm glad I'm there. I don't want to be at the High School anymore. It just felt like I was going back, or that I'd never left in the first place... it seems silly, looking back. But it was an odd, rather unpleasant feeling.

Elsewhere
Bought Deus Ex today, heh. It was only £4.49. Yesterday night I went to see Peter Pan and it was really good. The only disappointing thing was the audience that consisted mostly of noisy, rude primary school kids who didn't understand the jokes and just wouldn't shut up. Every time I see a production that good, it makes me even more sure that this is what I want to do. And I'm pleased with that ^_^

Quick note:
Have lots of RPG things to do tomorrow, heh. Future Prospects, R.O.T.E.F, W.H.A.T.E., A Decision Changed... and now I've finished lessons proper for this year I actually have a day to write (assuming I don't get called up for Marat/Sade, that is...)

Christmas is looking fun again. We now have a tree ^_^
