To kick off the week, ANT found out that she had a surprise 3-day Art mock exam starting from Monday. Of course, she sat through it, only asking for a Polo to 'keep her going' in these difficult times.
During lunchtime, ConscienceSarah tried to prove the point that not everything in the world can be solved using maths. She presented a scenario to Master, with the challenge being to solve the problem with only mathematical methods. Here is a summary of said scenario: you are in an enclosed box with only a rapidly flooding toilet. How does one save oneself from drowning? Dwell on that and comment with any solutions.
Tuesday saw the Chemistry crew getting their mock results back. Everyone did well, but the emphasis was on not peaking too early. Naturally, this lead to us coming up with a string of metaphors for not peaking too early, with Wicks even suggesting, at one point, that if there existed a qualification in the use of metaphors we'd all pass with flying colours, but of course, we can't peak too early on that one either.
As the conversation shifted, Sharah informed us that she watches so much TV that she knows the words to quite a few adverts, including this one for Colman's Shepherd's Pie.
In the middle of the week, Cap and Master had planned to go into town to get Wicks' birthday card, however ended up with a slight problem when Wicks was also on her way to town. They ended up having to leave the birthday girl in the book store with the promise of picking her up when they were done. Whilst browsing the card stores, Cap and Master somehow couldn't resist chuckling at all the 'son' cards; a particular favourite was one that said 'Son, you made it'. They contemplated getting this for Wicks but reasoned that no one else would get the joke. After much consideration and exposure to some of the crazy cards on the market (particularly one with a power pack that had a singing hamster when you opened it up), they settled on a reasonable choice.
On their way back to the Academy, the trio dropped into the local 99p Store, where they found these biscuits. They decided to bring some back for everyone to try.
We loved how the picture of the biscuits is animated. |
Every detail was thought of, including the rolling pin-bashed choc chips in the filling! |
Anyway, we hope Wicks had a fantastic birthday and wish her another year filled with joy.
Until next week, have a good one ;)
