I should have been there!!!!
I just read Thomas’ post on the protest that he went on today which involved drumming for trade justice. Yesterday I was debating in my mind whether to go, I really wanted to, but I didn’t know if it was a good idea to miss lessons being in my first week. I decided that I would see how I felt when the day came, but I though I was more likely not to go.
So next day, I got into school, and when I got in the building I realized I didn’t have my 6th form pass. It was a sign for me to go! I had my first 4 lessons of the day in lower building, and the lady on the desk didn’t bother asking for my pass, however in the upper building they are really strict on it and tell you to go home without it! I though to myself 'result! I can go on the protest!' so when I walked down to upper building I expect to be sent away. I told the man on the desk that I had lost my pass, and he gave a look which indicated to me that he wanted me to go home. But.... he said he would let me in this time and that I had to get I pass sorted out for tomorrow. Why did he have to be so nice!? As convenient as it may seem, I genially did forget my pass this morning, and I really though it was a sign that I should have gone to the protest. the annoying thing is that if it was yesterday I could have gone as I had last two lessons free, and if it was tomorrow I could have gone as we have pastoral day- don’t ask! It’s a load of crap where we do rubbish activities!
What a pain! Anyway, great to hear that you all had a good time, and that I can now say I have connections with famous people!

Next time...and we will remember the banana...how could we have forgotten the banana...it came all the way from Edinburgh...I suppose the focus was on drums or spoons or coconut shells or pots or pans...whatever you could get a beat or rhythm from...
...and a banana doesn't really have rhythm does it...
There in lies the problem...
Next time though we will all be there and so will the banana...hopefully the next march will focus on yellowness or bendyness or inflatedness and not require us to try to get sound from a banana ...I mean what do they expect...of course we couldn't take the banana with us...perhaps they are prejudiced against bananas and their yellowness and bendyness...so a drum makes a noise...u can't eat a drum...or for that matter an inflateable banana...
ok I can understand...it wasn't a banana or Sarah day...
but ur day will come...just as the banana's day will come!
Bring on the banana!
And Sarah!
