School

I spent the last week invigilating (fancy word, eh?) the GCSE oral preparations. Damn, that's a boring job. Sitting in a tiny little office with two pupils at a time and seeing to it that they don't talk or get out dictionaries. In theory, the job sounds quite nice, because I can basically do whatever the hell I want as long as it doesn't make any noise. So I spent Tuesday reading a film magazine, but even that bored be after three hours. On the other hand, the Head of French said we'd get paid extra for the job because they would have had to hire someone anyway, so they can just as well pay us. It remains to be seen, would be a very nice bonus, though.
The job draws to a close and it shows: my year 13s had their orals two weeks ago, the year 11s last week and the year 12 will follow next week which also means that I'm going to get a new timetable for the remaining 2 1/2 weeks in which I'll have to work with the lower classes.
Considering I only have a month left, I should get a move on buying all the English DVDs that I want. It's a shame we'll only get paid once more. That's something I'm really going to miss ;)
