Weekly News Round-Up #49: 26/01/2014

Welcome to a slightly late edition of Weekly News Round-Up! It appears that some readers *cough The Appalling One cough* have been rather annoyed by this, but we’re working on it. Anyways, here’s what happened during the week…

On Monday, we were once again reminded of the time that The Appalling One decided to abbreviate Creative Writing Club as ‘CRC’. And yes, he supposedly studies literature.

During that same lunchtime, Alexis showed a serious case of memory loss. At one point, he turned to Master and said, “Y’know what happened yesterday-“ and at that point The Appalling One distracted him by pulling on the drawstring of his hood. Afterwards, Alexis claimed that he never said such a thing and he couldn’t think of anything that had happened the previous day that was worth sharing with the rest of the group. A strange case indeed.

On other psychological matters, ConscienceSarah had a remarkable dream, which featured Wicks as a ghost princess, who was trapped in a tower, along with a stick monster that would weave her dress. I’m not completely sure what we can infer about ConscienceSarah’s mentality from this.

In the middle of the week, we had an important assembly, where we were shown a video. The only disappointing aspect of the video was that it was painfully clear that the presenter was reading straight from a teleprompter.

After the assembly, ANT declared that she needed to go home to ‘walk her cat’. Naturally, this lead to a discussion about whether or not it is possible to walk a cat. ANT believed that a lead would surely damage a cat’s neck, however Master suggested the sort of cross-body lead.
On a side note, it was fitting that the girl walking in front of us had something that looked like the tail of a cat hanging out of the bag…

As always, Friday lunchtime was an eventful one.
ConscienceSarah opted for a pasta rather than fish and chips, which seemed to upset The Appalling One. After she had finished with her pasta, DisneyLoverMolly and Master thought that they’d try their hands at divination, even though George was slightly skeptical of their psychic abilities. The Divination Duo ended up reading the fortunes of ArwaChihuahua, ANT and Cap. The results varied greatly, however the percentage of truth remained at a constant: 0%. Along the way, the pasta pot acquired a large piece of tissue which, when mixed around, ended up looking uncannily like lasagne.

Other lunchtime activities included shouting out words in a ‘Bogies’-style game (For those who don’t know what Bogies is, it’s a competitive game where contestants try to shout the word ‘bogies’ louder than other competitors). At one point, DisneyLoverMolly shouted out ‘deviation’, to which the whole room reacted by going silent for a brief second. This continued until ConscienceSarah decided that the game was unsuitable for such an environment. Of course, this prompted a game of ‘Chinese Whispers’, which didn’t end particularly successfully, as always.

Until next week, have a good one ;)
