I didn't post last night because my computer refused to connect to the school's internet.

On Monday at school, to my knowledge, the most emotional assembly that I have ever been to.  It started out by having a member of the student executive read out his speech and told the whole school that he has a rear type of disease that affects his stomach and digestive stuff and I think he said from the end of last year that he has had three major surgeries and has been in and out of hospital all this year.  Also about the dark times that he has experienced throughout his life because of his illness.  Towards the end of the speech he was thanking everyone that has stood by him through his illness and he started to cry and I could feel the whole emotion of the room drop in an instant.  It was horrible to see someone stand there crying telling his story.  But despite that I have realised just how strong one person can be.  Then two boys performed a really sad song, they didn't do a very good job of it but it was still really sad.  After this performance the winners of the short stories were announced and two of them were read out.  The first one was about a girl that was depressed and really alone.  The story focused on the events that happened before she committed suicide by drug overdose.  It was so well written that you could literally imagine and see every detail that she had written.  And this was written by a year 9 student.  I loved her story so much that when they read another story after I could not stop thinking about the previous story.  Her story was just amazing, it had such a good meaning and oh it was just amazing even though it brought the atmosphere of the room down further.  Enough about that any way.  On Monday I felt really dizzy, I think I first noticed it during period 5, because I started swaying and feeling really light headed.  So after lunch during art I couldn't really concentrate that well unfortunately.  But once I had gotten back to the bh and had something more substantial to eat I didn't feel so faint.  Because that day I had had a small bowl of cereal, two small bananas and a yoghurt all day.  But I had drunken almost a full drink bottle. I've started watching glee again as well which I am really excited about.  So I'm up to season 4 episode 18 I think.  Well that's all I can really remember from yesterday.  And because this has taken me about 15/17 minutes to write my internet is about to cut out so I don't really have time to write about what I have done today, but hopefully I will catch up with everything by tomorrow night.
