Keeping this joint blazing with my smoking - Pebble and Tinker, light your own matches! Just some things to pin down, very school-related... a little over a month until our last year of school, which is incredibly surreal. I can't really believe it (probably because of my delusion; I've kept on convincing myself that Year 12 isn't really that close). Academia is like the centre of my life yo.
- Yearlies coming
- NINE DAYS PEOPLE
- Prediction: an hour of leisure time during the maths exam because my pathetic mathematical abilities will die out before the final leg of the race (no hope)
- But as of next Friday my maths lessons will no longer matter I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY
- Rankings oh god no
- I have a fear of being average
- Final summary notes are bloody exhausting
- Putting on my armour for battle
- Out of ten days, six days off
- But of course that means four days of exams crammed together
- The school just wants to meet my hardcore personality
- I'm already making post-exam plans, way to get your priorities straight honey
- Book-buying (ALWAYS happens after stressful times)
- Moonrise Kingdom (!!!) with my fellow T.P (train poet), and Tinker and Pebble have joined us (... I wonder if they'll like Wes Anderson)
- Sleep
- Watch The Science of Sleep (Amelie is so magical by the way, I've been listening to Yann Tiersen's soundtrack to the film every day after school)
- And a Buffy marathon in bed duh what else should I do with my life
- I want to get up early tomorrow morning to go for a run
- Like at the crack of dawn
- Go running in the forest
- By the river
- In my pyjamas
- Because that's what normal people do
- Fridays are beautiful - we sat at the pizza spot across the station and shared zaatars and an Arabian pizza
- And I went home smelling like they threw herbs on me and shoved me in the woodfire oven
- When I told Mama about this she asked 'was this with your anti-social group'
- Stayed up past midnight reading to rolling thunder
- My name wasn't on the Eng. Extension 2 list
- That's because I'm an enigma
- Mystery can't help but follow me
- But my name was on the Top 30 Prefects list
- I came into roll call late and MeeMee told me
- It was a nice surprise
- Especially considering I am probably the most nonchalant, indifferent girl on the list - "Eh, vote for me if you want, I wouldn't reject the offer."
- I LOVE THIS -

- Anticipating the last week of term
- I want Year 11 to end but I don't want to at the same time - like when I told Pebble after our creative writing exam that I was fine but not fine
I feel like we're on the cusp of something exciting and completely terrifying. I think, underneath all the fear and dread, I am looking forward to Year 12 but at the same time I want to cling to my Year 11 textbooks and ideas and expectations, dig my nails in and never let go (a bit like how Tinker and I hug).
Ricocheting between emotions and thoughts will definitely become more turbulent come yearlies - but hey, I'm a teenager. This is not foreign territory.
Let us consider this good practice for Modernist stream-of-consciousness writing.
