The Day Of Many Missions [Buying 41 Things With A One Pound Coin].

Today, much like most other days that involve exams, has been a greatly feared day in my mind. Perhaps though this day has been of greater importance as it included the one and only... English Literature. My most feared only because I cannot bear to fail.

So, how did it go? Why that is a question for August the 27th.

Anyway, this blog is not about English Literature! No no. It is about being rebellious.

After the morning exam Penny and I had a few hours to kill and nothing to do. We briefly considered staying at school and revising but knowing that we could literally walk out of school as we wished became too much so we decided that with Penny's pound we would go on a mission to see how many things we could buy. Whilst strolling casually towards the exit we saw Camilla and so, as normal as this is, we hid behind the wall and scared her. At least, she acted very well at being scared.

She had to go and look in the magical Lost Property because somehow she has lost some Very Important Things for her exams. Many people were congregating, including Penny and I, and so when we were accused of being in the way [not in those exact words] we hid behind a transparent glass door. How rebellious is that for you?

We made our way through dangerous lands, through bitter wind until eventually we were ten minutes down the hill in Chatham. Using Camilla's natural sense of direction which seemed more to me like eyesight we passed all the charity folk who were stopping people for 'a chat with a charity' and made it into Poundland. All hail Poundland!

Chaos ensued. Roughly ten whole minutes debating Coconut Mushrooms, invisible people and cookies. The most important question... Do we buy a big pack of '75 year old' cookies or 'the cookies with the most chocolate chips'? Well naturally the ones with the most chocolate won and so once again using Camilla's 'sense of direction' we found a bench, counted 38 cookies plus 3 wrappers and divided them up to twelve each. Now, I suggested having a cookie munching competition and although the others declined, Camilla was rather enthusiastic about the cookies.

During this time we discussed 'Al's Got Rhythm'.

Camilla departed and so another mission arrived. 15 Minutes. One long hill. Did we make it? Well, surprisingly we were only one minute late to our lesson. That's quite an achievement.

After a rather amusing ICT lesson lunch involved more cookies, a scary snail, a plastic bag eager for freedom and quite a few jokes. Lunch with Jennifer and Penny was very eventful.

Finally, I ended the day with a really crappy ICT exam that most of us hated anyway. Interface: My Face. Thank you for cheering me up Jennifer.
