Sinister: The Lonliness of doing 400 metres and being last again (in grate twee style)

[JENOWL22 at xxx.com]

Hewwo,

We did 400 metres in PE yesterday, and instead of running round the track and 
getting out of breath and making an idiot of myself (last time we did 400m, I 
tripped over my lace and fell, and I was bleeding and everything and the 
teacher still made me carry on), I figured that if I was going to come last, 
I might as well do it in style.

 So I skipped round the track with a buttercup in my hair, and refused to do 
anything else when the teacher yelled at me to run properly. I managed the 
spectacularly bad time of 2mins 30secs, but I'm telling you, it was a massive 
triumph of twee. All the nerdy and misfit people clapped me when I finished 
and it was worth the hassle the hard kids gave me later on. 

I'm going to be in a pantomime, and some of the kids there have decided to 
form a band with me, so I'm well happy.  So far we've got two singers, two 
guitarists, a drummer, and an E flat Tenor Horn. 

I also might be allowed to go to the grate edinburgh picnic, so yay.

I went to see Final Destination last night, and you know how the adverts 
where people are screaming and stuff and it says 'actual audience reaction', 
well, believe me, it's true. People were being sick and screaming and me and 
my friend just clutched on to each other for the whole film, it was so scary. 
It's scarier than the Exorcist, The Omen, the Blair Witch Project and 
Spiceworld the Movie all rolled into one.

I'm going to toddle off now,

Toodle-pip!

Hugs,
Jen
