Skirts

Mr Radcliffe
LOL!
looks like there's a head coming
out of his bum!
          Why the H am I talking about skirts I hear you cry. Well last week I had forgoten to wear my tie, so I went to my head of year (Mr Radcliffe, for those in the know) and he gave me a tie to borrow (In return for my phone, just until I gave the tie back). So, as most teachers do he had a quick look at the rest of my uniform and claimed that I was wearing jeans. Although being firm and saying I shouldn't wear them, he was at least understanding that I wore them every day and I had nothing else to wear.
          But me becoming a woman now (in bunny ears) I decided I should get a skirt (I am currently regretting this deeply!) I bought the skirt from the school shop on Friday, with my mum, (pleated, the new one, generally not as popular, understand why now).
           So, when I got to school on Monday (today) as usual everyone over reacted and as usual I wondered why I bothered. I was told a billion zillion times to roll it up and I knew I should have but didn't until I got home, very silly if you ask me.

RockSchoolsUK!


Tori singing, Me drums, Finn Bass, Calieb guitar
About seven weeks ago I went to a gig to see my friend Goldie perform as part of one of the many bands playing that evening. So, I decided to sign up, I got put in a band with Tori and Finn, old hands at rock school who had both gone a million times and Calieb, who like me was also new to rock school. We had six weeks to learn four songs (we all chose one each) and rehearsed at monster studios then after six weeks we performed at the Brunswick pub

The gig!
Calieb, Me(on the drums), Tori, Finn (couldn't fit him in the pic)

This is my version of us. Much better!
I chose making plans for Nigel, by XTC. I found it easy to play but I apolagise to the rest of the band as I know that it was very hard to play and sing 
Tori chose seven nation army, originally by the white stripes but we did the Marcus Collins version with a hint of the stripes version, a very good choice!



Finn chose XO by fall out boy, a song I deeply hated to play and to hear, eventually though I began to love the song. 
Calieb chose Disco 2000 , by pulp I fell in love with this song strait away and loved playing it as well! great choice Calieb!


So these are the songs in order of how I told you them. depending on your age, and your pearents ages you may know a few of these songs. Enjoy!
