So guys, since some of us are starting this week (I'm not starting until the 29th) I think it's time for this thread. Seriously, the depression is setting in so I think we need a thread to procrastinate in since the new 5th years (:() have stolen the 5th year thread! Let the spam commence!

Any letters / documents / original sources in the family that you could use to add a slight twist to your project?

Even re: why he was travelling / reactions of the family to the news?

Nobody even knew about it till I showed my sister a photo. "THAT'S THE SPITS OF MATT!" was what I got :L Having a look in the archives to see if there's anything.

I'm focusing more on the US Inquiry, how it was different to the British.

Doing my history on child labour and housing conditions during the indistrial revolution, interesting enough. Very not prepared for the history mock my only chance is learning the case studies well and hoping to god one comes up for each topic.

I knew I'd regret not doing the second draft if my history project sooner, but fuuuuck. My class decided that they wanted it to count towards our pres, so I now have a week and a half to study for exams and write that

Mine's not until August, so I've a few months to worry about the dress.

I won't be going to my debs. I've only known these people for the guts of two years and like most of them mean nothing to me, except for a few who I know I'll stay in touch with regardless. Feel like such a social outcast saying I don't want to go but there's better things I could think of spending that much money on!

I've kind of mellowed from the whole 'I can't wait to leave and never see you people again' mindset I had at the start of the year that was making me not want to go to my debs but now I'm just confused, like it's so much money for one night

I've known a lot of my year since the beginning of primary school, still don't really want to go and spend all that money for one night, will probably end up doing it just because my friends will convince me to.

In other news I think I'll be heading back to school tomorrow, catching up and doing the mocks next week are gonna be the death of me:(
