fanning away in the sweltering heat; clinging on to the time we have

I think I perspired more than a pig today. *Scape park is SOOOO BLISTERINGLY HOT. Goodness gracious. It was fun though and CONGRATS TO THEO WHO GOT AN UNCONDITIONAL OFFER TO LSE. LSE CAN YOU IMAGINE! The school who kind of rejected EVERYONE and she got an unconditional offer but she can't go unless her family strikes lottery (kind of impossible considering I don't think they buy lottery in the first place.)

Anyway I just finished watching a drama which is really educational since it is about obstetrics and gynaecology. For instance (I know it's fiction but it really gets you thinking) there was one episode where this couple sent their child to the hospital because the baby (only 8 months) kept vomiting and in depth tests with all their MRI and CT and CRI or whatever have you scans they realised that there was a tumour in the baby's brain. The tumour would be difficult to remove but without removing it the baby would surely die. Obviously the couple was shocked and heartbroken but it was later revealed that the baby was not their biological child but an adopted child since they were infertile. At the spur of the moment when the dark diagnosis was revealed the mother wanted to leave the child at the hospital and run away. That set me thinking. IF the baby was my adopted child, would I do that to it? The hospital bills would surely amount to a huge sum but do I want to abandon a child who has already been abandoned before? How will the child feel if he finds out he's been left behind not once but twice? That really set me thinking about how the innocent child is actually the victim of his parent's selfish behaviour.

Maybe I shouldn't think so much about this kind of things too much but I should start on my lesson plans.

edit-
I was going to start (finally) but then I remembered that I wanted to blog about this pair of twins I saw today. I think they are scary. This pair of twins were manning the stall next to Theo's so obviously I had a full view of them and the scary thing is that both of them are ano. Like seriously. All the signs point to it. Don't ask me how I know I just know. I think the scary part is how I bet they compare and compete with each other to be skinnier and that pressure from your twin sister is enough to make you want to become skinnier. It's dangerous. It's unhealthy. Sooner or later either one of them or both of them might suffer serious health repercussions but when you're so caught up in it with an accomplice, it just makes it worse. Oh well. I guess there are people out there waiting to be knocked on the head before they wake up.
