"College" - Day One

Quote of the moment: "The cake is t3h pr0... plus you didn't get lost as badly as me! There was a huge crash on the M11 when I was coming home from Cambridge today, so about 3 fire trucks, 4 ambulances and a handful of police cars went whizzing by... And I was so busy getting over that I missed my turning. Then I missed the next one cos that was where the crash happened, and it was all buggered up, so I ended up on the M25... OOOPS..." - by me :D

LOL. But apart from that hiccup, my day was quite fun... Drove up in pissing rain, but it stopped by the time I parked up and walked to the college. Had some introduction stuff, a tour... Everyone had to do two tests for extra time purposes: one multiple choice fill in the missing word one, which was basically a reading test, so I owned it... 10 mins in one colour pen, then carry on for 2.5 more mins in a different colour, to show how much peeps can do and how fast. I finished in about 6 and sat getting bored... The other test was writing - pick a topic, plan it in 2 minutes, then write for 20 minutes, leaving a 2 line gap every 5 minutes so that they can see whether you speed up or slow down... Also assessing your planning. They suggested things like a holiday or a pet - I can't write for 20 minutes on my dogs! Sigh. So, having been sorting through my gcse stuff yesterday, I decided to write a little story as a counter-part to my legendary English coursework "Personal Fiction" piece, "The Raven". The one that G-R thought I got off the internet... Well, it should be more interesting than 90 peoples' holidays!

Oh yeah: Who's seen the new Lynx advert, the one with the 2 peeps walking back to the supermarket putting their clothes back on? Isn't the music pr0? Some guy singing a version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"... it's just really slow, and kind of... atmospheric :D
