I fantasise about how hugging the really loud JMSS kids on the shuttle and saying "it will all be okay one day, man" is going to be really confusing for them and really funny for me. Although, that only recent, as I've only been told stories of their makes-you-want-to-die-prowess, so I am patiently waiting for the day.
✌️just do what makes you happy ✌️

Either sleeping or reading a novel.

I look at people and determine their occupation and as much of their life history based on what I can see and hear of them. It's called Holmesian deduction!

Quote
“To anyone who wishes to study mankind this is the spot,” said Mycroft. “Look at the magnificent types! Look at these two men who are coming towards us, for example.”
“The billiard-marker and the other?”
“Precisely. What do you make of the other?”
The two men had stopped opposite the window. Some chalk marks over the waistcoat pocket were the only signs of billiards which I could see in one of them. The other was a very small, dark fellow, with his hat pushed back and several packages under his arm.
“An old soldier, I perceive,” said Sherlock.
“And very recently discharged,” remarked the brother.
“Served in India, I see.”
“And a non-commissioned officer.”
“Royal Artillery, I fancy,” said Sherlock.
“And a widower.”
“But with a child.”
“Children, my dear boy, children.”
“Come,” said I, laughing, “this is a little too much.”
“Surely,” answered Holmes, “it is not hard to say that a man with that bearing, expression of authority, and sun-baked skin, is a soldier, is more than a private, and is not long from India.”
“That he has not left the service long is shown by his still wearing his ammunition boots, as they are called,” observed Mycroft.
“He had not the cavalry stride, yet he wore his hat on one side, as is shown by the lighter skin on that side of his brow. His weight is against his being a sapper. He is in the artillery.”
“Then, of course, his complete mourning shows that he has lost someone very dear. The fact that he is doing his own shopping looks as though it were his wife. He has been buying things for children, you perceive. There is a rattle, which shows that one of them is very young. The wife probably died in childbed. The fact that he has a picture-book under his arm shows that there is another child to be thought of.”

LOL you have to tell me all about it one day (especially if they're a Year 10 ;))

But yeah I just read, talk to friends/strangers and observe everything around me.

Stare out the window and ponder the universe, the world and watch the outside go about their daily lives day after day, (also go to sleep on the way in... really needed that last year, that extra 40 mins or so of half sleep I really needed).

I listen to music and on my iPod I have this amazing app called Flashcardlet (it's free for anyone interested) and all my notes for subjects that need heaps of notes and definitions are on the app in the form of flashcards so I go through them on the way to school.
