Description
The clock ticksCloser and closer
To my death
And hour to go
Half
Twenty minutes
Tick, tick, tick…
Five more minutes
‘till death by firing squad
Counting down
The more I will it to slow down
The second hand speeds up
Just one more minute – please!
I have to prepare
But no, no mercy
I am called to the fore
All those disbelieving faces
The first snigger
The first laugh
I hold my head higher
And as the camera begins to shoot
I feel I could die
Of shame.

Okay..... over-reaction, maybe?
Nah, the 'please let me die' feeling's more desperate. You know.... you'd be like: "I think I'll break my own leg right now to stop myself having to do a speech" and stuff like that.
It's okay, Nicole, you have only one speech to do before you leave school. And I won't be there. Yay!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
oh? you weren't focused on me. maybe not directly because i was doing the speech, but that did contribute to it. there was a definite link. not to be spoken about here.

One of your best yet. You nicely capture the "please let me die" feeling.

That outfit wouldn't bother me in the slightest. It might make some of me classmates uncomfortable.

I've worn skirts before. Minis. Not pretty.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
can i just say... EW. really. you in a hot outfit i could handle, but if your going to wear mini skirts... urgh. i keep getting this mental image of Jared. 'cept Jared actually go into a girls school. and he wore mini skirts on an almost daily basis... but still!

I'm not sure i want to know the rest of that particular story.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
the whole of girls high found out. it was horrible. for everyone. he actually wore a tiny bit of material to the school disco. as in, 20cm by 20cm square fron and back and a split right to the top on both sides. it was disgusting. and i still can't picture you in a mini skirt - thank goodness!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
why was he enrolled in a girls school? was he transgender or something?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
oh, yeah. he wanted a sex change for his birthday and he was taking something that gave him cleavage. he tried getting into girls' and managed it but he got so much shit from everyone he gave up on that idea.

have I meantioned that teenage girls are vicious and stupid.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Sure are. At least, most of them.

i dunno, but i already knew that. you should've met Gabrielle. and that was only at primary. and she didn't improve none either.

skirt, shirt, SKIRT, four inch cuffs, cravat... still can't see you in it. it IS a skirt
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Already crazy, remember.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, but if you go as crazy as you are about your socks.... (ever heard of garters?).... you'd go crazier about the cuffs. And the skirt.... no, I don't see you wearing a skirt like that. I don't see you dressing up like an Elizabethan peasant, far less an Elizabethan peasant chick.

I'm not wearing garters, I'm not 60
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Shut your face, I wear garters whenever I have to wear my tartan socks.
Garters are part of the Scottish national dress. And the Highland dancing dress code. It ain't for 60-year-olds.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
okay, lemme rephrase that. I'm not 60 and I'm not dressing as a scot.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But you look so good in a purple kilt.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
You'd wear one of my Elizabeth-peasant-styles skirts? And a cravat? Somehow I'm not seeing it....
And the cuffs would drive you crazy.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
hey, you would probably be thinking the same thing if you had to wear that particular outfit. and thank you.
