11 weeks is too long

this term has been hell and there are two this long next year!

i'm picking that the near on 6 weeks of rain we had didn't help either.

weird things have happened over the last couple of days but i'm not sure if it's due to 11 weeks or not. one of my boys got shot by a high school kid on his way to school. it was only a BB gun but still. i think he got a bit upset when i reported it. the high school kid, who was one of our ex students and actually a good kid, was stood down. the police were informed but nothing has come of it yet.

yesterday my class watched while three high school kids tagged the back of their classrooms. we reported it and no one went out to do anything...they had a good 15 minutes to do something about it. by the time we went inside there were 6 of them out there.

and in the afternoon one of my girls got beaten up on her way home from school. fun times!

on another note, apparently the burglars leave post-it notes on your door saying you have a parcel to pick up. they leave you a number to call and give details to. several of my neighbours got one but i didn't. i guess i don't have the good stuff in my house.

roll on tomorrow 2.45pm!
