Weekly News Round-Up #13: 16/12/2012

There haven't really been a lot of big events this week, but it's the small things that really make an impact, right?

On Monday, we are all informed, by Wadz, of ANT's little sauce incident. Over the weekend, ANT managed to sit in Ketchup. As she has previously sat in other sauces, Wadz asked, "What else are you going to sit in?" ANT's reply was, "Hmmm, maybe mustard?" ;p

This week was the week of the Art exam, therefore we didn't see much of ArwaChihuahua and ANT on Tuesday and Wednesday. So here's what they missed...

Tuesday saw Ruby, Wicks, Wadz and Master conducting weight experiments in the 'Weights Room' during their PE lesson. This included hanging by the arms on a weight machine to try and determine how much they weighed. There was also a machine that had a belt on the seat, which they discovered, when pulled very tight, one could lean forward without the fear of faceplanting. Fun times.

Whilst the art peeps were around, Wicks and ArwaChihuahua decided to have dead arm battles (basically, hitting the opponent's arm repeatedly), and ArwaChihuahua tied Wicks' and Ruby's coats together.

I think you'll be glad to hear that, on Wednesday, we saw the return of the Assembly Music Act Record! It has officially started again.
This week, our assembly was once again on the true meaning of Christmas. Even though this assembly was more helpful than the previous one, there was still minor confusions in some of the points covered. But I do remember what was on the last slide, if that helps anyone. It said, 'Advent - a time to think about the meaning of life.' Discuss?

Later on in the day, at Lunchtime, Wadz and Wicks introduced us to the 'Zombie Game'. It proved to be quite a difficult game to understand, but I shall try my best to explain it to you all:
For this game, all players must stand in a circle. One player is the zombie, who must walk towards another person. The zombie victim must look at another player, aside from the zombie, to say their name, hence freeing them. The rounds get more difficult when the zombies walk faster.
So there you have it. I must admit it is rather fun :) However, when we decided to make it more difficult, ANT thought she'd step it up by charging at a victim at a speed almost comparable to lightning. I think we all agreed that it was a little frightening ;p

On Thursday morning, we had Biology. Hellyeah that was an awesome lesson (in a nutshell, we just burned food)! The best thing to burn was probably the Pringles (don't try it at home). When they ran out, ArwaChihuahua was so enthusiastic she even whipped out her own crisps that were meant to be for her breaktime snack.

At lunchtime, Wicks, ArwaChihuahua and Master decided to conduct another weight experiment. This time, Wicks and Master joined arms and had ArwaChihuahua run at them and attempt to be bounced back. It was almost like 'Angry Birds'. Meanwhile, ANT just looked on, unimpressed.

Later on that lunchtime, the topic of Yule made another appearance. It was then that ANT decided to ask what Yule was. Now, you may or may not know, ArwaChihuahua and Wicks have talked about Yule many times at lunch over the past few weeks, Wicks has spent a lot of time educating ArwaChihuahua on this subject. ANT was present for most of those conversatons. The question that they were all thinking was, "How can you not know what Yule is, we've talked about it loads!" This prompted another session of Yule explaining.

Perhaps the most incredible thing that has happened this week was the discovery of Snape being a real person!
In Chemistry, on Friday morning, Wicks decided to show Master that on the top shelf of the classroom, there were a pile of Chemistry textbooks. You will not believe this, but on of the authors of these books is called Snape! How incredible is that, he evens knows Chemistry?! Perhaps he really did drink that 'Honey Badger Anti-Venom' [Reference to 'How Harry Potter Should Have Ended']

On Friday lunchtime, ArwaChihuahua decided to make a rubbish circle, so she put down her rubbish on the floor. Now, I must say, what timing it was when the Deputy Head walked by half a minute later and asked, "Who's litter is that on the floor?" Lol ;p Other rebellious actions by ArwaChihuahua include drinking a Summer Berries Capri Sun in winter.

So, many of you will know that Wadz has been dying to have a big ol' paragraph dedicated to her, so here it is...
On Friday lunchtime, Wadz decided to make English her own, by tweaking a few words here and there. Previously, she has pronounced perimeter as perry-meter, so today, when someone shoved past her, she said, "Hey, was that really necessary?" However, necessary was pronounced ne-cess-airy. Oh lol ;p Continuing the trend, instead of saying 'blinked' she said 'blunk'. I guess it makes sense: sink and sunk, shrink and shrunk, etc.

Until next week, have a good one :)
