"At least you can relax now...sometime without exams."
I totally agree with the above statement! I finished my two exams that I had this week: business and science (chemistry). I failed epically at both I think. I figured I was more stressed about my mocks that I had a few weeks ago then these "real" exams. Silly, isn't it?
I have my college interview tomorrow - how exciting! Plus that means a day off school. There's not really much point going in if a) I've already done all my exams and b) I would have to leave at 10am anyway. Moving on, yay college! I went to the opening evening again yesterday and I can't wait to go. I'm so sick of school it's becoming unbearable. There's so many silly rules. For example; no eating in corridors, no hot drinks, etc. Pointless.
I'm sick of talking about school. Let's play a game. A game where we let our minds make up stories and distant lands. I do this when I can't sleep; make up my own land. I'm going to ask you a series of questions and you have to decided the answers. But none of them can be the same as how the earth is now. If that makes sense. You'll understand soon enough. I'll answer the questions with my answers as we go.
What colour's the sky?
Orange with streaks of pink clouds; the kind you get when the sun's setting and you know that tomorrow is going to be a lovely day.
What kind of land is it?
Fields. Lots of open fields with the perfectly green grass. But no mud. Mud ruins it. It's all gorgeous bright green grass with red and white picnic blankets scattered here and there.
Who lives in this land?
Me of course. And people I like. People that care. People that smile. People who don't talk about sex 24/7. People who keep people laughing. People that don't complain and appreciate what they have.
What's the weather like?
Warm; always warm. The sun shines but there's places of shade. Trees cast long shadows on the grass for people to sit.
What's there to eat and drink?
Anything you want. At the moment there are mountains of chocolate digestives and hot pockets. Kegs of not beer but tea. Hot tea made from Twinnings.
Is there t.v.? If so what programs are on?
Of course there's t.v. - and Stephen Fry presents the good episodes of QI along with Alan Davis. Nevermind the Buzzcocks is on in the afternoons and in the mornings, Whose Line is it Anyway previews. Scrubs can be caught at midday.
Where do people live?
In clouds or, if there's groups of people, in mansions in which every room holds at least one dressing-up box. If you want a holiday, go camping.
What do people wear?
Theatre clothes. Top hats and tailcoats. Masks and dresses. Shorts and waistcoats. Anything so long as they're comfortable.
When it rains, what does it rain?
It hardly ever rains but when it does, purple rain splashed down on people's cheekbones. People dance and sing in the rain. It's a happy time, not one to run inside and cry that your hair is going to frizz.
Anything paranormal?
There are no vampires here. Or wizards. Or unicorns. But there are ghosts. Ghosts that aren't your usual Casper. Ghosts that are troubled but find a happy place in my wonderland.
Did you make you own land? Was it fun? Do you like your land or just find this a waste of time? If it's a waste of time, why did you read it? Fools.
I think it's time to stop daydreaming. I've been in my own mind for the past week. It's time to climb back down again.
But I don't want to. I want to wander around in my wonderland. I want to dance in the purple rain and smile and laugh along with Ryan Stiles. I want to go camping and sit in the long shadows.
Take me away? Take me away to that wonderful place.
