Today was Leavers' Day for Year 13s in my school.

One of my friends had a haircut for the first time in 4 years, my Chemistry class had a party (with cake!), and I tackled a guy before we cable-tied his legs and sprayed shaving cream in his hair (on a side-note, I got talcum-powdered and silly-stringed).

Then there was the traditional shirt-signing - most of the comments I wrote were "Durka Durka, Ahammed Jihad!" or "Good luck - from your friendly neighbourhood terrorist". (Paraphrased from Team America and Spiderman, respectively)

After that there was an assembly, where we saw a slide-show of random photos of our year (including one were two guys were kissing, and another where a guy was naked. ). We also got Student Awards (Cutest couple, Most likely to end up in prison etc.), with much applause, cheering or booing.

Once that was out the way, we all went to the field for the barbecue and bouncy-castle-assault-course, which was friggin' awesome! I've grazed both legs, got a swell on my foot where someone fell on it, done something that made my back ache, and probably got a concussion from when I fell on my head... but it was all fun. There was one time when there were so many of us moshing on it that we tipped the whole thing over!! There were two other 'minor' moshes, which were adrenaline-inducing.

Then I got some teachers and technicians to sign my T-shirt, and made my way home. Once home, I tried to persuade my youngest sister to watch Charlie the Unicorn:
"Are you a penguin?" (Me)
"No." (Her)
"Do you want to be a penguin?"
"No."
"So you don't want to become a penguin?"
"No."
"If I told you that watching Charlie the Unicorn would help you not become a penguin, would you watch it?"
"...No."
Alas, my intellect has been bested by a seven year old!

And now here I am, still feeling euphoric.

Have a glorious, glorious day!

And that exam tomorrow? Pshaw - it'll be a piece of cake!
