Welcome back to Weekly News Round-Up, everyone! I hope you’ve all had a spectacular summer, I know I certainly have :)
Well, I can’t express in words the joy I felt at being reunited with everyone back at the Academy this Monday. After such a long time away from the normal routine of seeing each other every day it is great to be back at our usual table, exchanging laughs and banter.
One of the main topics of conversation on the first day was that of mis-pronouncing words and names. Master put more emphasis on the ‘pound’ in Poundland, thus calling it ‘Poundlund’, whilst ANT decided that she would say ‘shar-lay’ instead of ‘chalet’. Later in the week, the ‘Dougie Debate’ also divided the group in terms of the way we speak. In other word news, ‘minty’ turned out to be Master’s word of the day.
Lunchtime saw ANT closely observing Master's struggle to pick up salad leaves with her fork. Considerately, ConscienceSarah tried to make conversation with ANT in an attempt to divert attention from the salad crisis. Around the same time, Wicks was peer-pressuring Sharah into participating in the Academy's musical, however she still refused at the end of the day. Instead, Wicks and Cap auditioned after school and were informed, on Friday, that they had both been given roles!
Tuesday saw ANT display true enthusiasm for the little things that happen every day [sarcasm implied]. Firstly, DisneyLoverMolly asked ANT to get her a fork when she was going to the cafeteria. Typically, DLM was met with a sigh and an unimpressed face, but still got the fork anyway. Our second example of the day came in the form of a job offer such as making posters for the history production. Of course, ANT just slumped in her chair slightly and answered with a simple ‘yes’. Now, we wouldn’t expect anything else from her, would we?
[The above scenarios should not be seen as representative of ANT’s true nature. She just has the nonchalant act down to a ‘t’.]
In the middle of the week, ArwaChihuahua and Wicks had an interesting encounter with an insect during their Chemistry lesson. This involved a reasonably-sized bug walking along the edge of their table, ArwaChihuahua prodding it, which led to it being flung up into the air, only to land on Wicks' book. At this point, both were crying with laughter, causing the rest of the class to be rather confused.
Later on in the day, the Thor-Loki duo came across a case of miscommunication with a certain exams officer. The result of this was a slightly awkward meeting and both sides feeling considerably more peeved than to start with.
The pair continued on this roll of hilarity. On Thursday, they managed to find a novel titled 'Temptation in a Private Zoo' in the library. It's now been made their official study time novel. The aim is to read a few pages every time they're in the library and hopefully they'll finish it by Christmas. We'll keep you posted on their progress ;p
It has also been revealed, this week, that ShoeLobber is a big fan of the classic Masterchef Synthesia. Sometimes, one just can't argue with that buttery buscuit base.
Finally, to end our first week back at the Academy, ANT and Sharah had a game of competitive bottle throw and catch. Who doesn't like these alternative sports!?
Anyways, until next week, have a good one :)
