It Was Evening All Afternoon...

My Mum just gave me a Good Luck card which was lovely. The card was fancily edited to have my face on... Never give someone a good luck card with a smiling picture of themselves on.

And my Nan and Grandad signed their Good Luck card from 'Little Nan and Big Granddad' what a crazy pair!

So I have my first English GCSE on Monday. I like English and today I had a whole day of English revision. Our teacher set our class the task of writing a persuasive piece regarding something we wanted to change; I don't think my teacher understood mine because most people wrote about changing the taste of onions and changing TV content and changing the weather, but I quite liked mine so yeah, here it is:

People. People. Us…What are we? We are us and people and people are complex. We are the only beings to have fluent thoughts and to decide on building to the sky. People cannot be summed up in a word; people’s years and days and personas are so vast no one word fits true. You have to back catalogue someone’s experience and life, the words that make us human cannot be used to define a humanity, an originality flows through everyone. If you see someone don’t decide on an assumption before you’ve imagined, look around you and then look back at the human you were going to judge in a split second of a second, open up with regret and with satisfaction and imagine people complexly. Yesterday I gave 10p to a hobo; he wished me a good day.

And out of boredom I wrote this thing about Starbucks, I don’t think my teacher really ‘got it’ though… I guess it’s a metaphor thing or something?

I don’t like coffee but I’ve been into Starbucks. The smell I hate and the pretentious arrangements of vanilla with cream… There’s a lot more shops y’know, even at home. Coffee is everywhere not just in Starbucks. I feel awkward when I order because I don’t want coffee but even If I did, what would I order? Starbucks have a lot of money and you’ve had a lot of coffee, I don’t like coffee but I think you do though, you’ve been to the shop and experienced the goods, so why waste time on these words? Your coffees done – Go on, walk on.

 Oh, and I made a video yesterday about benches and remembering: If you're interested click here, if you're not interested though don't be clicking anywhere near there. Instead click here or here or even here but don’t click here if you’re not interested, because that's the link to my Youtube Vidyo.
