Back to the asylum prison hell school.

First day of my last year, and I can't help but think of the phrase "the beginning of the end." Ominous of me, I suppose, but still.

I only have nine months left until I can escape - hopefully to a Sixth Form - so I'm going to grit my teeth and bear it and just search out the happy moments XD And she is rather amusing, for certain.

lol The Crucible. lol McCarthyism. lol wiretapping and the Patriot Act. We never, ever, ever, ever learn. >_>

I FEEL YOUR PAIN TOO XD

Ugh, I'm sorry it's taken me so long to comment. I meant to last night but was distracted by Charles and Jay. Speaking of which, have some fanfic, dear.

ANYWHO.

I believe I've already explained my sympathy with regards to everyone else stretching upwards around you. Think of it this way - when you're doing your own groceries, you'll have a ready-made excuse to talk to that utter vision of a human being, since you just can't quite reach the stuff on that top shelf. *grins* Besides. Nelson was short and dignified. And taken seriously, although that could be due to the weaponry and hoardes of loyal soldiers behind him. Small is beautiful! Good things come in small packages - like diamonds and arsenic. XD ( ... )
