So I'm in my room working on a paper for English (incidentally, "Come Downstairs and Say Hello" is good paper-writing music). Parents are in the living room watching TV. Dad calls me out there.
For some reason I'm thinking one of their friends turned up. I go out there and look at what the parents were watching; noticeable lack of the friend, though, so I shrug it off.
Until I'm back in my room and who should knock at the front door...
That's got to be the biggest of those I've had so far. XD
In other news. Got a booklet-thingy from the England!program people in the mail today. ENGLAND! And other than that nothing really exciting's happened.
We've started Les Mis in English - once I'm done I'm rereading Les Omens. Good fic anyway, might make more sense.
