It Didn't Rain Today.

It's always such an awkward moment when you walk into an exam about 5 minutes late and every single person in the hall looks up and stares at you. I'm generally late to everything except work and interviews. It's not something I intend on being, I always used to pride myself on my punctuality, but since I hit the 16-17 age bracket I just stopped caring. My friends all know me as "the one that's always late". That's not my nickname, but I reckon it should be, a more condensed version though. Sometimes it isn't even my fault; take today for example. I woke up on time, I showered on time, I got dressed on time, I left the house early, get to the bus stop early, but of course being British, the public transport system is a nightmare. So because of a very slow driver and a ridiculous traffic light system I did end up being late. This could so easily turn into a rant against the bus system in Milton Keynes, but I'll save that for another day. I tried to make it look like I didn't care, when I breezed into the exam hall, but inside I was dying with embarrassment. My excuse was that I was fashionably late, a horrible kick-back from working alongside high-street fashionistas everyday. But that's just me being conceited and dreamy. I was late because I don't drive, yet.
At least it didn't rain today.
