I've been telling people the wrong thing!
MELANCHOLY is pronounced MELON - COLLIE
AARGH! I feel so embarrassed now... Sigh people make mistakes okay. Even super anal irritating English teachers.
Oh and. 3E5!! WHO HASN'T GIVEN ME CCA RECORDS/PROGRESS REPORTS??? Hmph there are still some monkeys who owe me their stuff. If I count and check and find out who you are I'm going to fry your ass. Hmph.
Okay now I'm going back to marking. My brief Tourette's moment is over. (Saturday remedial people, I want my neoprint tomorrow! :D)

(For Lincoln:)
Rigging (from
Anglo-Saxon wrigan or wrihan, "to clothe") is, on
sailboats and
sailing ships, the collection of apparatuses through which the force of the wind is transferred to the ship in order to propel it forward. This includes
masts,
yardarms,
sails, and
cordage.
(And no, Melvyn, you can't hang laundry on rigging unless you live on a ship.)
I have concluded that I am actually quite bad at wearing heels for long periods of time. You would think that this revelation would have come to me earlier, but once again denial proves to be more comforting than acceptance. I still like my heels though. They are useful for stepping on persons who annoy me beyond my limits of tolerance.
In other news, for people still dying to hear some gay songs, this is one of my favourite songs, from the musical The Producers. It's aptly titled Keep It Gay. (If you need backstory, the two guys in suits are trying to convince the dude in a dress to direct a really bad play for them, because they have a secret plan to make millions in profit and run away with the money. Unfortunately for them this guy is really seriously gay in every sense of the word.)
(rant) By the way. Just in case anyone has got opinions about what I should write on this blog, or what I should wear to school, or what I should and should not say in class - I say thank you very much for your concern. I appreciate that you want me to do the best job I can. However I believe I should be the judge of that, and not you. I welcome advice, but that doesn't mean I have to follow it. I encourage giving opinions, but that doesn't mean I have to change to suit you. I am more than fairly certain that I know what I'm doing, and I'm more than certain that I know what I should be doing, more than you. (/rant)
Okay I've had enough of being emo and angsty. I shall return you to your regular programming. :)
