Ha! Whoever wrote that didn’t bother to make it sound real . 

Personally, I don’t believe that whole theory anyway. I simply won’t believe it. I can’t accept it.   

My favourite part is when they blandly admit that Paul – not Campbell – gave an interview in 1969.

I’m on summer break… 8 weeks of staying inside, sheltering from record breaking storms, and record breaking heatwaves. Only in Australia 

At least you don’t have to go to school?  That’s pretty crazy though. We’re pretty used to the heat here in summer, but having both storms and heatwaves must be disorienting. It’s winter break here… Two weeks of sheltering from light rain and dreading the day that school starts again. 

 

Side note: it was very hard to make this post…

  

Is that an ad?!? That’s ridiculous. I commend your admirable perseverance in the creation of your post!

Anyone else glad it’s winter break? I’m in eighth grade, and school is extremely stressful. Especially the whole forecasting thing. The few weeks before winter break are always a bit awkward. We can’t be taught anything new, because we’ll just forget it all over break, and we can’t review old stuff because we’re all counting down the days until break and not paying attention anyway.  Just glad I can be at home and not have to spend six hours a day at school, I guess

I’m a sophomore, and we weren’t taught anything new either, because we were busy cramming our heads with review for finals, which for the record are some of the most stressful things I have ever encountered in my fifteen years on this planet. It hasn’t quite sunk in yet that it’s break and I don’t have to worry anymore, but my subconscious cannot be easily persuaded to let go of its problems. 

Also, @silverhammerYT, what is this “forecasting thing” you refer to? I feel like I should know what it is but I’m tired.

@50yearslate forecasting is picking our classes for high school. The silly thing about it is that they act like we’re deciding the course of our whole life and it’s just way too much pressure..   

Ahhh I see. It was like a ten-minute thing when I was in eighth grade– we sat sown with our counselors, picked our electives, and left. At my school all the freshmen take the same classes unless they’re in the advanced math program or if they took a language in middle school, so it wasn’t too stressful, but I definitely felt the pressure last year when picking classes for my sophomore year. The best advice I can give is to just not worry about it, because as you said, it’s not as though your entire life depends on it. Just pick the classes that sound interesting to you, and if you’re considering honors, AP, or advanced classes, take them because you want to take them, not because others are pressuring you or because you feel like you have something to prove. I learned my lesson this year when I decided to take honors math and honors chem in the same year, and they’re both very hard and stressful classes. Just don’t overdo it and you’ll be just fine. 

@silverhammerYT how are you feeling?

Getting better all the time, I suppose. I’ve stopped feeling nauseous, which is great. Just mainly allergies, now. I can finally eat again, thankfully. Really happy I’m better in time for Christmas . (You were right, water, rest, and Beatles music is key to recovery )  

Yay! To be frank, I was beginning to doubt good ol’ Doc Robert’s credibility. Glad you’re better (and sorry about the allergies. )

I had one of the those dreams last night where a bunch of people were mad at me and I had no way to explain myself.   

I can’t stand those, they’re so frustrating. I dreamt that I had to retake all my finals and everyone was dressed like Disney princesses for some reason and also the jazz band was practicing in the girl’s bathroom.
