- Oh my God lol... the little paper boy who delivers newspapers on a Saturday morning down my road just cycled past my house.
He was having a good ole' nosy (our kitchen is at the front and we've got a big massive window... my mother loves it because she likes to spy on the neighbours and know what's "going down" in the road) so my mum and I both decided to wave at him!!!
I've never seen someone so embarrassed and shocked lol!!!

- I finished a Photography unit yesterday, hoorah!!
But my teacher shook my hand afterwards... that was a bit strange. A pat on the back would have been adequate.

(off topic..i dont know about over there, but over here they cant do that anymore Kate. Some see it as 'sexual harassment'. If its the same there then that would be why the hand shake.)

Christ!! Thinking about it, if I was unhappy with the contact and reported it to the police in this country I could probably get my teacher in trouble... However I didn't view it as "sexual harassment". So I'll let her go. And I don't have anything against my teacher - except when she yells, of course.

Oh, yeah because that's your opinion on the matter. But, there are waaaaaaay more poeple over here who would much rather get the teacher in jail for someting as small as a handshake or even a lttle less than that, then just let it go. It depends on the teacher. For me, if it's a really ncie teacher, then I'd be all right with it. If it's a creepy teacher or a really mean teacher, then I might have something to say about it.
lAlso in my county, there have been (i'm pretty sure) at leaste 2 cases in the last two years of sexual interaction between a teacher and an underaged student. I know there are at leaste two. There may be more.
Poeple are a lot more sensitive about other things in the U.S. then England. A little while ago i saw a t.v. show over here that had a little blurp about a commecial for a doll over in England and it showed some male parts on it. But, over here that could never ever happen. There would be more law suites than you could ever imagine.

Gosh!! - Ok, I just had the cutest delivery guy at my house! Not cute as in looks wise, but cute in personality!
I ordered something online and whilst I was signing for the parcel he asked me if there would be anyone at number fifteen as he had a BIG parcel for them... there are three people who live there and two of them are at work so I said he should try there. He asked me if he could come back if there was no one in, I said yes.
So - from the kitchen window - I watched him knock on the door of number fifteen, and the woman who answered must have said something to him as he then went over to number thirteen and rang on the door.
He stood there for about a minute and there was no reply, so he came back over to my house. Picking up the keys I headed back to the front door, but then one of the people who lives in number thirteen came out!! He had to walk back over the road carrying this HUGE parcel to get the guy to sign for it.
I was killing myself laughing, poor delivery guy.

hahaha! That's hilarious. I would hate to live in number 13 though. I would have np idea how to live with myself in there. Must be so unlucky and spooky.

Well I live in front of a Graveyard so I know all about spooky - except it's not that spooky at all! I don't really believe in ghosts, so I'm unaffected by it.

- It was my first day back at school today and it was just fine! I did have to rush an essay though before I went in - but that was alright, I like rushing as it makes me work harder than I would usually
