I went shopping!

So... I bought "WICKED!: The life and times of the WICKED! Witch of the West". I showed my ma. She goes "can I look at it please?" I got "NO!!!" the WICKED! is not to be touched.

I really want to read it now. But I'm not going to. WICKED! is going to be saved until after exams. Or at least will be saved for the evenings instead of my fanfic :)

YAY! I also bought new socks. for like 1/4 of the origional price. Yay!

This is what the above says... :

Oh my fucking god. How fucked up is this? This kind of language is now going to be allowed in school exams. Like the end of year exams. Like the ones that go towards your qualifications! How fucked up is that? Teachers are going to be spending like twice as long on each paper if students write like this. I think if they allow this, the markers should get twice the money. I couldn't even write this whole passage in text speak myself. I had to use a translator. And I text regularly, and stuff. If I can't do it, how's a teacher, who doesn't text, going to be able too. Although, when I text I use real words.

So, this is the link to the article.

What is this going to do to the English language? Okay, I admit to use abriviations, lol, gonna, proly, wtf?, omg, etc. But I actually say those in everday language. In my opinion this move was wrong. My old English teacher will be spitting. And if she were dead she'd be spinning in her grave, but she's not dead. It's completely fucked up. High school students should have to learn how to write properly, in real English, otherwise what are they gonna do when they get to uni?

God, I hate text speak. If a friend sends me a message in text speak I text them back "Use real English, or don't text me"... I know it's mean but they text back in real English. They know I hate it. I only use text speak if I need to send a long message and I run out of space. But I usually would only go "srry, lng mssg. u ok 2 go 2..." so I just take out some vowels and stuff.

It's offical. My country is retarded.

I've heard her soul is so unclean, pure water could melt her!

I hate when I sleep in. I start work at 9. I woke up at 9... *headdesk* But my boss is cool. I phoned him and I'm like "omg. I'm so sorry. I slept in. I'll be there by 10 at the latest okay? I'm so so so sorry." I got to work at 9.30. I felt so bad. But it was all good.

I ate more blue jelly today! Yum yum. I want to keep eating it, but I've only got 2 boxes left. I have to make it last.

So. It's raining outside. I love the rain. RAIN! I think it's rained like 21 of the last 28 days. Well it feels like it anyway. It's good though. That means, hopefully, we won't have so much bore water in our taps over the summer. Not that I drink tap water anyway, but it kinda makes your hair smell funny. It's not that bad though, cause everyone's hair smells funny... but it's still annoying.

Yeah, I don't have much to talk about...

I heart WICKED!
