I've spent way too much of my day at school today so this will be another school thing. I might try to make my third post about something else but no promises. So I had two one hour exams today which meant there was three hours in between. I spent the first two revising for my chemistry in the library.
I've always like libraries, all the massive shelves filled with books, the big tables, the still calmness and that atmosphere of people working really hard. (The last one doesn't apply to the school library a lot of the time, but occasionally.) I sound a bit weird don't I? Let me explain, as person, I can sometimes have sponge-like qualities, for example when people start eating, most of the time so will I, when people fall asleep at a sleepover, so will I. Not to say I'm one of those irritating people with no will of their own or opinion to speak of, but I'm just easily influenced sometimes, like catching a yawn or a bad cold. That just means that at the library I find it easier to work, this is for a number of reasons actually but the atmosphere is one of them. Of course, the lack of distractions, other people working intently and pressure of work to be done contribute too.
However, I have an issue with the school librarian. There are 3 now, there were 2 before. I got on really well with one of the old librarians and she loved me. Whenever my group of friends were talking loudly before school or one person didn't have a chair or something she'd just ignore it and tell other people off, it was great! Then she left and the one I didn't know that well stayed and we got a new librarian that dresses weirdly and the elderly part time one who doesn't like people much. All of these librarians have, for some unknown reason, decided that the best way to shut up teenage girls is to loudly make the 'sssshhhhhh' sound repeatedly. And let me tell you: that does NOT WORK. So don't bother trying. After a while it sounds like the noise you make to try and make someone need the toilet - not quite the effect they were going for I think. On top of that, it just adds to the noise pollution and after a short while it becomes incredibly annoying, more annoying than the talking.
