Dear Diary,

    Today was a late start but got there in good time. The first bus was waiting in front took me. The bus driver said, "Back seat quick" but I was looking at the front seat crossing the road. Praise God there was a red light for me to get out with enough time. I got to school and the assembly was in progress. We had class time very quickly. Only 4 of the 2L students were supposed to do the make-up test. The four Muslim boys remained in the back playing quietly.

    The rest of the class was in the pan room working on the college song. I had to dart in there and saw "Miss King" playing the six basses. I asked her which pitches were given to her. I gave a short change and then it was able to sound like it. I could have sat comfortably on the chair. Off and on Jessie and "Perry" came to visit. It looked like they had Technical Drawing and they did not have class. I thought that there was going to be a Form 1 class but Jess said that was after recess.

    We left for the staffroom. "Carthio" and Mrs Brown were putting up Christmas decorations. I went to get the pies. It was funny how Mr Richard admitted that he put less pepper in the pies to Miss Hannah. I've known that for two weeks now even though he said it in a whisper. As soon as I ate them I went to get some work.

    Later that day after school Daddy and I went to Isa to finalise the Author Card and the Subject Card for the library. He may have to send estimates of the cost for the documents because of the variation in duplicating a card onto one sheet. He said that half quotes too can be challenging.

    I had a long wait in the bank too. Only one hour waited and I typed up the first-day entry of Week 84 in there. I had to learn that there was a special teller to do payments from me to another bank. There was a special visit from Mala today too. Sad to see that she had to move.

    There was new music from Mr Marcelle for today's practice. I only got it when I turned on the computer. I had to send Isa the new version of the quotes list. Then I saw the score and a recording. I remembered that yesterday he was asking for the music recording of the Georges anthem so I sent him the YouTube link. I also sent Hillview, Tunapuna, and Girl's Guides Anthems for him to listen to.

    I noticed that the George video did not have the link to the song's journal entry in the video's description. I had mentioned the links to him also to see how it came about. Had to rush down today's entry before the time stamp in WhatsApp changed for tomorrow. The evening was tiring. Andrew had sent some phoulorie for me but it was still very raw. I took a piece of the Sahina and sent the rest to Dad.
