My mum bought a new bottle of hair gel for me yesterday. So I spiked my hair today, and attracted such unwanted attention from Chester. I have no idea why Chester is so fascinated by the fact that I spike my hair! It's vaguely disturbing sometimes. For the record, I do like spiking my hair. I want to dye it too, but that'll have to wait until after the 'O' Levels. Perhaps blue, or maybe green? Colours like red and brown are so passé. I just thought of the perfect colour - silver. You don't see many people walking around Orchard Road with silver hair, excluding the old people and that's really grey and white anyway!

I think I performed below my normal standard for the Chemistry practical today. Thankfully, the French essay questions were wonderful, didn't need to plan at all. I just stared at the questions for a few minutes, then I started writing and hardly stopped. I had 35 minutes to kill after I finished. Can you imagine how boring that was? The scenery inside and outside the classroom was rather bleak and dull. I wanted to come up with another poem like I did on Tuesday, but I couldn't quite grasp the thoughts floating through my head and distill them into something worth posting here. Maybe next time? Wish me luck, have to get through English Papers 1 and 2 tomorrow! The horror of it all...
