23 of September - Wednesday

It was a quiet day until about 13:00; during lunch time. Oh yes, the 6th Form Centre was active today. Not long after I arrived there after lunch, Zé and Matheus put a couple of chairs in front of the door, to barricade it. Of course, that wasn't much of a barricade so Zhao and I joined. Pilling up chairs until they were about 2 metres high. Some chairs at the bottom were there for support. It wasn't long before I got a bit carried away: I put a small table in front of the door. Then I lifted up a sofa and put it on it's side, against the chairs.

What many of us didn't notice was Mr. Thomas standing there, watching us, just waiting to leave through the very door we were barricading. Well, suffice to say that we got a "Put-everything-back-in-one-minute-or-you-are-all-banned-from-here!"

Well, we managed to tidy it all up, Mr. Thomas was set free and we started reapeating the events to the other people that passed by. The only shame was that we didn't do it again and didn't get to see the effect on other people. After all, the whole point was to see people's reaction when faced with an enormous barricade!

Today was also the first House Assembly. Windsor got together in the Art Centre, Tudor in the Theatre and Stuart in the Cafeteria. With the Athletics Day coming up all the signing up was important. I'm not sure what happened with Tudor and Stuart, but the house meeting for Windsor went very well.
