Forty days is a South African tradition. Basically, all of the matrics/high school seniors celebrate 40 days until the end of their final exams (and the end of school). Unfortunately, my school does not officially celebrate it. Bad idea, Monii’s school. People decided to celebrate it anyway, and in ways not at all condoned by the school.
We had drunk students, students walking out at break (recess) and going for lunch at the beach, angry students at getting punished for walking out, emails sent to all matric parents (causing mine to freak out), and even some suspended students. Today was pretty crazy because of all that, but I’ll admit it was fun having conversations with the drunk guys. >_>
In other, less adolescent news…

What do you think of her new winter jacket?
She seems to like it okay.
