Fun Times At Quiz Night (The miraculous eighth post)

Well..... It would appear that my college's Biology department are about as organized as the rest of the college. In all honesty I do not expect to do a mock and then have it lost by the teacher. I mean we can't have all done that badly. I could understand if it was so bad that they didn't want to show them to us, but losing them is a poor excuse.

It turns out that, after losing the papers some time earlier last week, they managed to finally produce the papers by Friday (FINALLY).

Anyway, back on to the main topic of this post. Our sixth form held a quiz night and my group of friends felt inclined to put our best and brightest forward. Unfortunately they weren't all available so I ended up in the team. The Christmas quiz night had apparently been won by the joint chemistry and physics faculty team every year to date, so the challenge was to beat them. The night itself included a ten round quiz with soda and crisps on sale at the side, and a raffle. The night's entertainment also included according to my friend Dominic drawing moustaches on the photos from the picture round. In then end we had to confiscate the pen when maturity levels dropped to an all time low and unspeakable things were drawn all over David Bowie's head.
It's funny that things like quiz nights tend to show you which of your friends are really competitive, and oh did we learn who was competitive that night.
The vast majority of our team was satisfied when our team came a humble tenth place out of 26. A small minority were livid that they had not come in the top 3. All in all though, the quiz was a huge success as a student team managed to place first leaving the joint chemistry physics faculty team with the shame of having to accept second place.
I still have not had any drawings for the background of this blog submitted. So again, if you have drawn or wish to draw something for the background of my blog please submit it to me by email (leave a comment if you need an address to send it to). Please submit something or I'll get bored.
