So, yesterday was a weird day for me. It was my last day of school, which may confuse some people. Im in year 13, which means after this I have no obligation to do anything. I don't have to go to school, I don't have to get a job (except I would probably end up homeless!). But basically, the only reason I have to go to school now is to do my exams and pick up my results.
The day itself was kind of a blur, everything happened so fast and before I knew it, I was driving home at 1 in the morning. Typically, on the year 13's last day of school, at least at my school, the whole year group dress up. But all out dressing up, there is no half heartedness happening. It's a go hard or go home mentality. My group went as the Wizard of Oz characters (as shown in the top picture). I was Dorothy, hence the bright red shoes.
Then basically, year 13 cause havoc until 1:30 when we all hit up the local pub. At 1:30 in the afternoon. It calls for an interesting day when a bunch of 18 year olds are at the local pub getting legless. Obviously I didn't drink because I was driving home but it was funny to watch other people get drunk off their faces and know that they have to do things later on and they'll feel terrible.
After the pub, my friends and I went out for a meal, yes we stayed in our costumes, we got many strange looks. Then it was party time. A girl in the year was throwing a whole year group party, everyone in the year was invited. However, it was a little ruined by the rain. It rained all day up until the party, meaning that everything was wet, no one was allowed inside and it was cold. Eventually we gave up trying to be warm and went home. It was still 1 in the morning though. We stuck with it for a good while.
It was a good day, full of fun and shaving foam!? I'll be sad to go, but I had such a good time at my school. It's weird to think I've been there for 7 years and come september I could be anywhere in the country. Scary thoughts.
On that note: Peace!
