Yesterday’s corner time: 5 Minutes.
Apparently, it’s not enough that I go to school everyday. My teachers, in their infinite wisdom, still deem my work/life balance to be out of kilter.
With a view to remedying this horrendous aberration, they are now sending work home with me. Work is crossing the threshold into my domain where play and relaxation are the only laws. Well, together with cleaning my teeth after meals, keeping my bedroom tidy and no inappropriate nudity but the less said about that the better.
So, instead of spending quality relaxation time in a trance induced state whilst watching TV or reaching the third level of zen meditation whilst massacring zombies on my DS, I am obliged to do Mathematics.
Twenty equations including division and multiplication. Not only that but they say to show your working.
Show you're working? Of course I’m working, I don’t have time for anything else.
What do they want – video evidence? Do they want a film of me sleeping too so they can see the difference? Here’s one of Matthew working and here’s one of Matthew collapsed over the table utterly exhausted.
Dad turned a ghostly pale when I mentioned that I was taking the video camera to school and he rushed off to wipe it.
So, at least it should be nice and shiny.
Matthew.
About Me
- Matthew
- I'm Matthew, I'm 6 years old. I have a Mum, a Dad and an annoying, 4 year old sister, Becca. I started writing this blog when I was two. I had more time on my hands in those days. Becca wasn't even born and I didn't have to attend school for every waking hour. Still, whenever I can, I get up to mischief and I document my adventures here.

Yay! Matthew, welcome back! When your homework eases up enough for Zombie Zen, don't forget to blog sometimes. :-)
Hey Angie, It's good to be back. I hope to make the odd posting providing I can keep those Zombies at bay!
