Whats made you happy today?
(21 Feb 2015, 10:38 am)MarcTheA4 Connecting to free Wi-Fi on 6055 (citaro5284 will be happy!) - and I may well have the youngest bus driver I've ever seen. She's a young Washington-based driver and she only looks about 18/19! Quite nice looking as well. F*** that b**** at school!

(21 Feb 2015, 10:53 am)MarcTheA4 I'll keep you updated, citaro!Will have to keep my eyes open for her, see how smart she is, I have seen one or two fine looking lady drivers in recent times
To give you an idea she looks like Lucy from the Inbetweeners movies. Except she wasn't a psycho and drove like a veteran!

Nothing made me happy except that I got an EC pen.
Pity party over.
One of the girls in my tutor is now on red card.
My school have a system for behaviour, this bunch of girls have had the card system to their name since the beginning of Y7 now! To put it in short:
Pink - uniform being incorrect
Blue - no organiser/homework diary
Green - general behaviour and poor grades
Yellow - failed Green, basically on desperate ground
Red - failure to comply by any rules set by the school
Pink card and Blue card tend to be one-offs, such as forgetting your tie or organiser the once. Whereas Green is something the Head of Year decides over a period of time, such as a pattern in behaviour, negative comments, etc. If you fail Green card (every lesson the teacher must grade your behaviour on a 1-4 scale, 1 being great, 4 being terrible), you get one more shot - before you are handed a Yellow card.
Yellow card is a one-shot deal - if you get anything below a 2, you've failed it. Then you get a red one. And if you get a single 3 or a 4, you are expelled.
I don't think she'll be able to do it, she was all upset and stuff in tutor this morning when it's her own f***ing fault!
Fair to say this is a victory and I may go to bed this evening relatively hate-free. And before anyone comments, this isn't snobby or anything - everyone else is just as pleased as me. In fact we all want to see the back of this one!

The card system seems a bit convoluted in my opinion. Red and yellow cards are fine because they are symbolically significant when it comes to dishing out discipline. I don't understand what pink and blue are supposed to represent but, usually, a green card (or signal) means 'good' or 'good to go'.
When I was at school there were four tiers of disciplinary action before expulsion.
We used to carry homework diaries to record, well, homework, but they were also used by teachers to comment, where necessary, on comment on class performance. A green comment meant you had contributed well in class - worthy of praise - whereas a red comment meant the opposite. If three 'red marks' were received within one week, the next level of disciplinary action was applied - being put on 'report'. There were three different types of report: 'Head of House', 'Deputy Head', and Headmaster's'. All three required teachers to grade your behaviour/performance. You were still allowed to socialise with students at break-times whilst on Head of House's report, but if you were on either Deputy Head or Headmaster's report, you had to stand outside their office with your nose to the wall during these periods.
Quite a few people were expelled from my school, however, they all seemed to bypass the disciplinary procedure and were pushed straight out the door. Ironically, a person from my year who was expelled from school, went on to form his own business and is now a millionaire on paper. I remember when a teacher told this person that they'll never amount to much.

(23 Feb 2015, 6:43 pm)MarcTheA4 I'm not too sure about green either. Although I think Pink and Blue are generally just random colours they picked, I'm sure they have a White card as well for children being specifically monitored because of something, usually within a specific set of lessons (eg, French and Spanish or History and Geography, etc).
I'll ask tomorrow for you.

Generally, a lot of people, regardless of their behaviour history - treat Pink card like a bad comment. Similar to how Adam said, if you get 3 in a week there's a consequence; in my school you get an after school detention on the Friday night. Normally not taken seriously.
Whereas with Blue, it's generally for forgetting your planner, which the school makes a big fuss of. You aren't allowed out into Chester-le-Street for your lunch, and need to have it signed by a Senior member of Staff every 10 minutes, which I wouldn't mind tbh. I'd still be able to have lunch with some friends who opt for their lunch in the canteen.
Green is generally seen as a bit of a serious punishment, and is met with an after school detention. If you fail it, like I explained, you are given one more chance before moving onto Yellow.
Yellow is typically the same people over and over again, normally some of the girls in my tutor group.
Red is a totally different thing, I think Red has only been handed out about five times since the start of Y7 in my year group. It's basically a death sentence.

(23 Feb 2015, 6:28 pm)aureolin I'd be on a blue card every day. I refused to carry a planner around in the last 3 years of school, as it was only ever used to get a 'good behaviour' stamp from your lesson. Waste of time.

While in Home Bargains in Blaydon this morning I was privy to a conversation held between two till operatives discussing what they look for in a man. Both mentioned and agreed that a nice pair of trainers were essential as you could tell a lot about a man by the type of trainers they wear. Bearing in mind that I'd just came from the gym, I felt a bit disheveled as I was wearing an old pair of Fila trainers which cost me £15 from JD Sports. I wonder what they made of me.
Obviously this didn't make me happy but I was rather amused by the superficial attitude displayed here.
I think I'll stop buying Airwalk, Vans etc. and invest in a pair of AirMax '95.
