staring at the passing scenery whizzing past

Today we did something sort of fun for pe- we (rosie, joan, joanne and I) did diving. Nope, i don't like diving, i dive like a log. I protested at first but was forced to in the end. So we got to the other end of the pool and rosie says, "i can't jump from so high up!" so coach takes one of those noodle things and makes us do aerial long jumps from the top of the diving platform. our landing point, being the pool. =) was fun. We arrived late to maths, but it was worth it.
Friday is World Peace Day and the school intranet said that there would be a one minute of silence at midday. okay. According to my chinese teacher, people only remain silent in funerals, which she thought was rather odd- doing it on peace day? there is also an origami thing for peace day, and we also have a casual clothes day.
I despise having casual clothes days because its hard deciding what to wear. It's good to not wear uniform for just once but choosing what you wear is a difficult task. You're happy to be in casual clothes-
individuality yet on the other hand you don't want to look shabby or wear something people have seen before, which is hard when you don't have an extensive wardrobe.
The next thing is we have to cover our shoulders and knees- i wear several jeans stuff that are slightly above the knee- is that okay? on the other hand i don't like skirts, they don't feel safe especially when you want to sit down. And sleeveless stuff? i don't want to overdress and arrive looking like i'm ready for prom or something: which brings me to a conclusion-i must ask what everyone is wearing.
"jeans, t-shirt."
jeans-jeans-jeans and we all live in our jeans. Rainy days, shopping days, sunny days- all jeans. Bell-bottoms, skinny jeans... low rise and bootcut. No jeans please--- again?
PS: Chinese teacher gives all the scoop. she says there's going to be a pshe for us soon- next week or so?
