    National Stereotypes

    The Haggis is a spectacular creature with three legs, one of course shorter than the other so its very easy to hunt as all it does is run around in circles. We Scots also shout 'OCH AYE THA NOO' wear kilts and paint our faces blue and white to scare away the Enlgish. (This usually isn't true...

    What do bookworms do for exercise?

    I have a manditory PE lesson every week, but other than that I'm hibernating until summer. I used to play hockey and rugby, but not anymore. I also drum a lot and walk home from school every(other) day, which is about 15 minutes walking time. I really am lazy... oh well, on with reading...
