Right. Okay. First things first.
I feel like I owe the internet some kind of explanation for blogging. I’ve always enjoyed other people’s blogs, but the very idea of doing it myself always seemed a bit weird. I mean, it just feels a bit obnoxious. I really don't expect the internet to enjoy what I'm spewing out.
The very reason I am doing this is because I procrastinate. Brilliantly. And like everyone else, its always on the really important things which should be done first- in this case, a summer project. In all fairness, I did give Sarah and Jan (the two wonderful teachers of Art at my sixth form, more so wonderful because they’ve put up with me for a year) plenty of warning that the booklet '20 things to do over the summer’ would not get touched, although they seemed convinced it was banter, though I ASSURED them it would get shoved under the bed and forgotten about over the summer, collecting dust.
Now the lingering guilt of the effort they put in to teach me has caught up with me and I’m rushing over the last four days of summer holiday to do everything in this tiny-bane-of-my-life-booklet. And this is the very last one- ‘create your own blog’. I can see Jan and Sarah frowning disapprovingly saying ‘well, you should have done it sooner...’ I KNOW. I know.. So voila. Bloggy-woggy here I come! Grrrr. This is what good teachers do to you. Hooray for the first blog!
Next task- collect some yucky pondwater in a Nutella jar.
(I TOLD YOU I’D GET SOMETHING DONE)
