Regarding the girls kissing.... I wouldn't have an issue with this personally.... But, from your teacher's point of view, you are at school to learn, and even if it was male/female kissing, I'm inclined to think you should be asked to stop, and maybe keep it to private time.

I agree.

On one hand, from having friends who have been in lesbian relationships and an ex who claimed to be bisexual, I can totally understand how homophobic attitudes or perceived homophobia can hurt and upset the people concerned.

On the other hand however, if I read your original post correctly your friends even hug and kiss in the classroom? Thats not on in my opinion, whether it be a hertosexual or gay/bisexual relationship. People are entitled to be in any kind of relationship they want to be, but at the same time there are those of us out there who are not comfortable with seeing couples all over eachother and if it is within an environment such as a school I don't think its unreasonable to ask them to leave that for in private

Can't really stop her though. Meh.

If the teacher's stopping people doing something on the grounds of their religion, then it's probably classed as a hate crime (in this case homophobia) and is against the law.. The Head would probably be the best place to go about that...

Yeah DC, that is ppossibly the worst thing about Facebook, something goes wrong and then you have a virtual record of everything. It's a disaster waiting to happen. Happened with me, and I've abandoned it now, just isn't worth it.

I'm going all serious I guess. I've completely lost control of my emotions again. I haven't been to college since monday, and I just don't want to leave my flat. It's driving me insane, literally. I really honestly dunno what to do anymore....

Been a while since I moaned so here goes....

Usually people having time off work would be a good thing but I've realised why I took hardly any in the last year. Had a long weekend last weekend, again this weekend, off next friday and off the whole of the week after, and I'm already bored. My friends are either skint or working so I don't think i'll be able to do anything with them. Fortunately I have free prints to claim from a camera shop so that'll keep me busy for a few hours on monday, and yes people I mean hours, got 300 of the things to claim.

A friend seems reluctant to tell me there is something goin on with another of our friends, He's been very cagey with everyone when it comes to talking about it but he's telling others a lot more than he is me. Apparently he's convinced himself I genuinely like the girl, when it actually started out as a joke which if I recall correctly he started. She's a nice enough girl, but not really my type and I only see her as a friend, but its nice to know the fact he thinks I like her wouldnt make him question getting with her. hmmmmmmm

I applied for a job with a local bus company back in November to be a trainee bus driver as I'm sick of my job and the shit pay, and wanna drive for a living. Got a letter a week later saying applicants were being looked at, and I phoned yesterday and was told that they're waiting to call me in for an interview which could be another 3 or 4 weeks away :(

I have the actual worst friends ever (apart from some weirdo named Fez who I love very muchly). It's been a week and I've spent my days in the library, etc. I have no social life, so my life now consists of glaring through eyes of resentment at evil ex friends on facebook, reading (I've read like, two books this week, and have four to finish by next week), homework (including extra homework I have made for myself) and early nights. Oh, and some Irish serial drama, named Raw.

Anyway, they hate me, and it's all going crap. I ended up crying in the toilets on Thursday for nearly half an hour. Meh.

Problem is, my mum has organised a birthday sleepover thing for me, and is buying pizza and etc, and lending me her chocolate fountain, and letting ALL my friends sleepover for the first time ever. So, I'm gunna have to invite them, and well... It's a few weeks away, but still.

Oh, well. I LIKE hiding in the library and reading and doing homework. It's fun.

OMASM. Radio presenters are like fruit. Matt is my kumquat and Scott is blatantly my orange.

i hit the gym today. for almost a year i've been hitting the gym 2-3 times a week which dosen't include swimming, which i got to 100 lengths on wednesday. it's about the only thing that's keeping me focused, when the summer comes i'll be doing more outdoor stuff.

you know i've been trying to sum it all up today, i don't think i can. but i was thinking how when people say 'there's plenty of fish in the sea', it's quite insulting. taking into account that i haven't even come across a stickleback on my journey.

Took my car to get a pre-MOT check done last week and got told theres several things it'll fail on. I've given the guy the money to get the replacement parts, and he said he might have been able to fix it yesterday or today, but I've not been given a call about taking the car round so I'm stuck waiting as he advised me not to drive it much because theres a serious problem with the steering :(

Its a friends brother (he's a mechanic) who is doing it, he's done work for me before and I paid for parts upfront so I don't doubt it'll be done, just fed up having a car I'm wary of driving anywhere now

    • Scott opened Thursday by immediately clocking the pace of the inbox, saying it was “one of those mornings where you can tell people have woken up ready to talk.” Ellie Brennan and Tina Daheley were both in studio, with Scott checking in on them and joking that “we haven’t even warmed up yet and you’re all already in full voice.” The early links were light, with Scott narrating what was coming up and reminding listeners they were heading into “a proper Thursday show.” There were quick resets, music breathing space and familiar back-announcing, with Scott repeatedly acknowledging how fast messages were landing and half-laughing that “this is already a lot before seven.” Ellie noted that voice notes were stacking up unusually early, while Tina commented that people seemed keen to respond to each other as much as the programme. Motherhood chat, but not a phone-in The main theme emerged around motherhood and social media expectations, introduced by Scott reading a listener message about feeling like she was “constantly failing compared to what I see online.” Scott paused on it, saying “this comes up a lot, doesn’t it,” but was careful to keep the show moving rather than letting it settle into a single-issue phone-in. Ellie talked about how curated feeds distort reality, while Tina pointed out that “nobody posts the day where everything went wrong.” Scott reframed the discussion several times, reminding listeners that “you’re hearing highlights, not real life,” before deliberately breaking the run with music and a reset, saying they’d “come back to this — but not all at once.” Voice notes, relief and shared laughs As voice notes came in, the tone varied. Some were reflective, others lighter, with Scott reacting in the moment rather than letting each one sit heavily. When one mum admitted she didn’t enjoy every moment, Scott replied simply, “you’re allowed to feel like that,” before immediately moving on to the next message to stop it lingering. Ellie noted quietly that a lot of messages ended with apologies — “sorry if this sounds awful” — which Scott picked up on, saying, “you all keep apologising — you don’t need to.” He then undercut the intensity by joking that “this has turned into group therapy before 7am,” before laughing and playing a record. Listeners responded to each other as much as the show, which Scott acknowledged on air, saying it felt like “people talking to people rather than just talking to us,” while still steering the programme forward. Pause for Thought and breathing space Pause for Thought slotted neatly into the running order, continuing the theme without deepening it. The speaker focused on compassion, comparison and letting go of unrealistic expectations. Scott thanked them afterwards, saying it “fits with what people have been saying this morning,” and deliberately left a short pause before moving on. Ellie observed that the slot felt like “a natural breather” in the show, which Scott agreed with, before resetting the mood with music and lighter links. The handover Scott handed over to Vernon Kay by briefly outlining what the morning had been about. Vernon picked up on the listener response, saying it sounded like “one of those shows where people really got involved.” Scott agreed, replying that “they really did today,” and mentioned the volume of messages still waiting.
