Yeah, P1's our first year of school (4-5/6 year olds) What's year 9?

Your fire drills last's the whole day We had one today in the middle of PE. I had to run around the full building (it's massive) in the ice and cold and line up on a step in the middle of the playground At least I wasn't in my gym shorts and plimsoles

hmm... so many to choose from... too difficult to choose one im going to say anything of showbiz, most stuff off of OoS and most of BHaR whats yours?

It's fine

I'm not really worried about braces. I think my teeth are fine but I'm getting braces from the NHS because it's not cosmetic and they might affect my speech and eating (load of nonsense).

Great! I hope you do

It really depends on what mood I'm in and how I'm feeling. I used to really like drawing but I just can't be bothered with it now. I have to have my drawings perfect if I'm doing them and I get really annoyed if there not. All the teachers make me do portraits for leaving cards and things but I'll just say no now because I really don't like drawing people.

I'm getting quite worried again. There were some people from my class and the other class round our estate and they were dropping rubbish and kicking footballs everywhere. When my mum and dad went out to tell them to stop they were cheeky and answered back to them so they phoned the police. I sit at the same group as Emma, I was working with Linzi, and I hate Gary and the other class. There all popular people. And I've got school tomorrow too Very worried.

Today I held a sheep heart

I don't really know why but I was worried about getting more stomachaches and my tablets not working so I distracted myself by thinking about Matt It worked too. It's just some days I get really panicked about stuff. That's a shame €95 for a calculator I think that's about £60 something pounds.

Schools been ok. The teachers doing our highschool reports just now. We got two of the academy teachers in today, chemistry and biology. The lady was cutting up this sheep heart and all the blood was coming out while we were holding it. Any other day would have been fine but I couldn't look at one part because I've got the stomach problems. The chemistry guy stained our sink and table with some yellow stuff (in the new school too ) and talked to us about eating sodium.

I got impressions and X-rays done today. Functional braces, train tracks and two extractions. Ah well. My mum said worst case scenario they might break my jaw and move it forward if I have an under bite. So positive

Have you finished history assessment now?

4/15 is good. Least it's not 1

I stress over everything too. Even non-stressful things stress me I've been having quite alot of problems lately. Mostly with my moods and psychological stuff and my pacings getting a bit out of hand too. My mum says that's a sign of a mental disorder. Oh dear.

It didn't post my message

So how've you been? Did your history assignment go okay? I've not really done anything lately. My assessment didn't go too well. I only got 91% The new person who joined our top group, Mya (who I've hated since she joined team 'popular') got more than all of us. 96%! Very unhappy

That's three good ones I know. I can find more though cause we have poems and things on all the school doors Schools fine, we had the trip yesterday and went down a mine in the pitch dark. I lost count of how many times I bashed my head of the roof

Sorry for taking forever to answer

Thank you I think we get first choice of lockers if we want them next year too. I only have an enormous reading book, a jotter I always mix up with the school ones a "target sheet" and probably important letters from the school in my bag. I don't have to carry it around though. I done it all last night three pages long and I had to keep reprinting it all because I wrote King Edward IV + Catherine Parr and I forgot to put some of the queens in red then my computer died on me before I printed it

There used to be a palace but it had to be knocked down because the owner wanted more money so he mined out underneath it so it started collapsing and sinking. Chatelherault is on a steep hill caused by the mining too. There's quite a lot of history and myths and things around here. The best ghost I think is the Black Lady.

Not heard them. Im fine You?

I WON THE QUIZ!!! So happy First time in years by only one point

Thank you Wow that's a lot, we have a family tree of kings and queens from Henry the Eighth, spelling and Maths. Castles are brilliant There was a palace in Hamilton (Hamilton Palace) where palace grounds is and the hunting lodge of the palace (Chatelherault) is in Larkhall. The palace had to be knocked down because of mining underneath it and it was sinking/collapsing. There are supposedly lots of ghosts around larkhall too. There's a fence separating the school and fields but good idea for PE. We might be eaten by the horses though I can't think of any Scottish bands only bagpipes or something. I know lots of Scottish poems that I could show you though

I hate losing things by a point. I've never really done history. In the quizzes that's always why I've lost to Daniel.

Well, I wanted to be a fashion designer/dressmaker, but I realised that isn't really me, everyone goes on about how great my drawings are and that I should be an artist, but they don't make a lot of money and I wouldn't want to do that anyway. I want to play the drums but my dad says I'm a girl and bands don't have girl drummer. I worry a lot and even though I have years to decide I still dream about my job, my best options and my future. And I'm not at highschool yet Two years. Wow that's not long.

I prefer castles to be honest and I've been to summerlee hundreds of times. Our school used to be in the middle of the mainstreet but now it's down a tiny road in the middle of nowhere surrounded by fields We're not allowed out anymore.

That's a nice name. I had a friend called Olivia. Yeah I'm Chloe A Never heard of the Veils.

Yeah. Glengowans never won yet I don't think. Always lost by one point What sort of job do you want?

I'm off school because of the in-service days and the school trips to the Summerlee coal mine and miners cottages or something for our world war 2 topic.

I don't think I've asked you yet but what's your name?

Yeah It's really easy though cause we do just about the same thing every week The quiz to get to the rotary had fifty questions so I'm wondering about the actual one Yes I have to go. I was Chosen.

I have a tenner so far and I'm going to save my school trip money too I'm off for 5 days then I'm of the next week too Have you the battle of the bands video with muse in it?

Ah ok. I read that wrong Didnt do anything yesterday either. Perimeter of triangles, spelling test, mental Maths test, assembly and ICT. I didn't even get on the computer because Mrs Pegg was talking to us about them and at the assembly I was told I'd be going to the rotary quiz with a P5 and 6 Very sad day. I was already angry about not being allowed a drum set (even if I'd bought it with my own money )

It didn't snow that much this year. I don't care though. I like the rain better So how are you?

You're welcome.

I love Maths This sounds bad but I've been in top group for Maths/everything since P1 So you started school today? I forgot that it was a different time from here Whoops

I'll probably get enough exercise the amount of times we have to come up the fire exit and change my shoes to keep the carpet clean. Six times a day! Me too Suppose that's one reason to come to Scotland. Extinct volcanoes and no big earthquakes often Yeah, we're reading a book called Divided City, It's about Glasgow, sectarianism, racism and asylum seekers. Maths is just revision (third year running) and topic is Natural And Manmade Disasters. Not really interesting. How's about you?

Yeah, the school moving was quite good. The new one is awesome The windows are pink and purple

That's a shame At least you weren't that near it

It's really good Yeah I'm back at school. We were of a couple of days last week for moving though.

When Joshua came back from his holiday he said there was an earthquake over there

Was it close to where you live?

Seriously everyone I've talked to on here wants to live in Scotland/UK I don't think it's that great here for all the people that get killed/murdered but then I've lived here all my life and I'm sorta used to it.

I love hard to read books Wuthering heights is brilliant but Its not really that difficult. Only when Joseph speaks

Larkhall in Scotland It's right next to a Hamilton

Whoops! I ment the other two, Bridsehead revisited and By Midnight Sorry

Where abouts are you in New Zealand?

I can't remember how many times I've re read Harry Potter Don't think I've read the last two. Are they good?

A boy in my class went to New Zealand before Christmas. He said it was really nice and there were lots of penguins My favourite books are Wuthering Heights, Harry potter and Fallen. What are yours?

Can you really go to see Muse at 12? My dad said I'd have to be over 16

Other bands I listen to are mostly The Cure, Florence, and occasionally Coldplay. What bands do you like?

No, I'm only 11 so I don't now if I would be old enough to got and see her live, and I probably wouldn't be allowed anyway

My favourites are Girl with One Eye, Drumming and Howl.

Me too. None of my friends like Muse, Florence or anything else I listen to.
