What does Emma have that Angus finds annoying, but others find amusing?
no, it's not herpes. I, Emma was asked to sit down the front of assembly today, not because I was naughty, but because I was getting my half school colours. But they fucked it up and gave me full colours instead. Originally I wasn't complaining, after all - it's full school colours! and i get a little thing in my blazer. But I feel really bad, because I did crap all compared to the other people.
The main fuck-up by the school was giving me a full award for Outdoor Ed. HELLO!!! I do crap all in the outdoor ed department!!! especially when compared to those like Angus, Kerrie and Steve, who all have half awards in the field, and they all go on the hikes/trips each holiday and actually do stuff. Angus and Steve even do Outdoor Ed as a subject for crying out loud? How the crack do I, Emma - lazy ass of all lazy assed people... get an award in outdoor ed? Sure, there is kayaking, but Angus is equally, if not more involved than me (even when he doesn't show up to training.)
And Kerrie last year got some school award for Outdoor Ed because she does so much.
The only reason I can think of for me legitimately getting the award, is Bens obvious infatuation with me. Ben is the Outdoor dude at school, and possibly the one in charge of these such awards.
Or maybe he just felt sorry for me.
What made the whole situation even worse, when I went up on stage to get my little certificate and shake Dr Haywards hand - Doc goes to me; "congratualtions, this is the highest award the school offers, you have done very well" - but he said it in such a patronising tone, like I was some sort of retard or something that under normal circumstances I wouldn't recieve an award such as this one unless I had some form of mental or physical disability, and it was awarded because teachers felt as if I was handicapped compared to the other "normal" students.
I think i may have to go and ask if I really actually did get this Outdoor Ed award, because if I remember correctly I didn't put down "full award in Outdoor Ed" on my application, i only put "half award - to be confirmed"
And I didn't even tick the Full award box!!!
