I’ve started a high school Bucket List.

• Learn to play chess on the giant chess board
• Help myself to the secret stash of Shloer
• Party in the upstairs part of the unknown drama store
• Make music parody videos
• Take a little dander up to Mr. Barr’s office (accessible half-way up the stairs to the library)
• Gig in music
• Make videos walking around the school wearing a bin
• Read as much as possible in the library
• Walk home from school (apx. 8 miles, avoiding all country roads on which I could potentially die)
• Have a sneak-peak at Knoxy’s office
• One last tour of the basement
• Subscribe my school email address to flipping everything
• Find all the Wallys in all the Where’s Wally books
• Read 10 books and earn a Freddo from Mrs. Mairs
• Sign the wall in Mr. Reid’s art store one last time
• Have a deep, meaningful chat with Mr. Coleman
• Punch Mr. Black in the teeth (let’s be honest, probably won’t happen)
• Do all that homework Mr. Waring set in first year that I still haven’t done (and expect it to be marked and handed back)
• Go mad and do my A Levels
• Save a copy of all the junior school H.E. recipes
• Finally make my peace with junior school P.E.
• Have a debate with Mr. Campbell
• Go on a Music Class/Chamber Choir trip
• Re-decorate the tiny downstairs practice room
• Help create a leaving-song for Spring Concert ‘12
• Perform The Armed Man again!
• Sneakily photocopy as much music as possible
• Listen to the record of King’s College Cambridge Singers singing The Creation by Haydn
• Record something with Leah in the recording room for old times’ sake
• Weep like a child at the last Chamber Choir rehearsal
• Take the scarf in the recording room and claim it as my own
• Walk across the bridge between Mr. Moreland’s room and Mr. Martin’s office
• Thank Miss McConnell wholeheartedly for the gift that is grammar

There’ll be more to come, I’m sure.
