Mmmm, its kinda uninteresting at the start and doesn't hold much for the whole 'ex' series, but it gets better towards the end. It was right before the Bursary English Exam (the 19th of November, 2001) (No, honestly, it gets better after the quote game).

Jinx says: Morning sunshine
Jinx says: Your up early . . . or as it maybe, you seem to have fallen asleep at your keyboard, or created some magical loop in time to skip this afternoon and jump into the 29th of November . . the end of all exams.
Jinx says: (If thats true, you had SO better be taking me with you . . . I've been racking my brain to figure out away to jumper forward into time so the me left in the present will breeze through these exams, but I can't figure out how to do it, and I find it greatly unfair that you have!)
Jinx says: Then again, you could be studying . . . . *thinks* or not. Its too early. I maintain that you feel asleep at your keyboard.
Jinx says: Ohkay, going to go dig up that advertising essay, and then eat some crasy jelly/jam stuph that I was told I'm not allowed to call Jam So, happy dreaming!

it's meant to be short and to the point

Chris says:
Love
Jinx says:
Squire, werent you gonna have a fling with him?
Kyla says:
he can, he doesnt have to talk to mre ketih afterwards
Thom says:
well he's not interested so....
Chris says:
MsKibbin told us to say that Appearance vs Reality should be the main one
Thom says:
yeah, but you don't just say "appearance vs reality" is the theme, you gotta specify it to Much Ado
Chris says:
of course
Kyla says:
we were told that we arent allowed to you that as a theme because everyone does it and its not a 'more than a few words' theme
Jinx says:
Bet he will when he gets back from Oz
Thom says:
i.e. "The deceptions of social politicking belying peoples true feelings"
Chris says:
what am i gonna do when i get back from oz?
Kyla says:
i hate being in s1 for english, i hate lear
Jinx says:
have a fling with squire
Thom says:
Chris - read the above
Thom says:
my i.e. point is better than saying "appearance vs reality"
Kyla says:
right, my back hurts
Kyla says:
mel- got new cd
Chris says:
my computer is screwed
Kyla says:
aladdin
Thom says:
and also "have a fling with squire" is something you should read too.

Jinx says:
Awww, should I pity you then?
Kyla says:

Kyla says:
