What to blog about?


It's late and I've been wondering what to blog about... haven't come up with anything so I'll just let it flow and see what happens. I'll 'ramble', if you will.
(90% of you will now have browsed away)

So I tried to drop a subject at school today. They didn't let me.
Their reasons included:

1. Them: 'You just want less work because you've got 4 unconditionals'
Dave: '....point being?'

2. Them: 'By signing your name on your option form last April, You entered into an agreement to complete the subjects listed on it'
Dave: ' ... so no one in the entire year has changed even one subject during that time? I personally know at least 20 people who have.'
Them: '.... we are unaware of that.'
Dave: ' oh really?'

3. Them: 'Employers in the future are differentiating potential applicants by their ucas points, as people with First honours are 10-a-penny'
Dave: '...I'm sorry, can you repeat that last bit?'

4. Them: 'You already have 6 free periods, we're not giving you any more'
Dave: 'I'm not asking for any more, I'm just asking to do Practical PE, instead of a higher. (clearly not a skive... okay maybe a little).'

5. Them: 'You signed a different contract at the start of the year, stating that you would complete the courses to the best of your ability, and behave in a responsible manner'
Dave: 'HAH, I was off on that day, so didn't sign anything!!!!'
Them: 'Stop being pedantic'
Dave: 'what? In what way am I being pedantic, you're claiming I signed a contract that I didn't sign! In everyday life that's quite serious'
Them: 'That will be all David.'

Not happy, not happy at all.
And I think it's safe to say that my total effort will not be put into achieving this particular higher, so I guess my potential employers will just have to be content with my First Honours.

Roll on Uni'.

And yes, I know this blog isn't particularly funny, I just wanted to vent. Vent over. And if you're here for funnies, check the pic.
