A busy few days

First of all, I got over the tiny bout of flu I had without missing any school, so that was good.

Wednesday was rather boring. It was a short day because we don't have sport anymore, so I got home at like 2:30pm. That was good though because it meant I had time to do homework before I went to yet another early Venturers night. We did a Photo Scavenger Hunt, once again in the city. It was alright but we didn't have as much time as previous times, and the list wasn't that interesting. To top it all off, it wasn't even really a competition because the other team just went food-hunting instead of picture-hunting.

Thursday was a bit of fun. We started our last topic for the year in English, "Future Worlds". We're gonna be watching a lot of films over the coming weeks, so I reckon I'm gonna enjoy that a lot. Now I just have to find the motivation to do this damn text response essay before Monday so I don't get in trouble. Also, that night, I finally got my first work to do as a web designer, so I now officially have a job!!!

In complete contrast to Wednesday, Friday was awesome. The first three periods were practically empty because a whole lot of people were at a leadership thingy. We got to listen to music in Maths, we did almost no work in Business Management, and in English we spent 40 of the 70 minutes simply talking. And then at lunchtime, me and my friend Matt H finally got to do our test-run for our small business that we're holding on the 16th. We set up an Xbox 360 and Guitar Hero and played it briefly on a big projector with a massive-ass sound system. It looked and sounded fantastic, so it looks like everything's gonna run smoothly.

Today we had my oldest half-sister Sarah over for lunch. It was fun to catch up with her again. She also got my Dad a really interesting book for Father's Day called "Companies that Changed the World". That's definitely gonna be worth a read. And speaking of Father's Day, it's tomorrow, and good old me, instead of getting the card and present-wrapping out of the way early, spent all afternoon and evening playing Guitar Hero. I'm going to wrap the present after I finish this post. But yeah, I spent several hours playing Guitar Hero today. I came so close to getting 100% on Miss Murder on Expert, and I also had my best run yet on Through the Fire and Flames on Expert (69% of notes hit, in practice mode obviously).

Anyways, I've probably bored you enough by now. I promise to start updating more often :P.
