"Now, I don't know if this is just a female thing..." Uh oh...

 Seriously though, I'd like to take a moment to rant about how much I love folders. And stuff. Mostly just folders. They just get me so excited. More so than sex! Almost as much as chocolate... So, next year I'm going to college. Not your American colleges, you understand. It's a sixth form college, so it only has 16-18 year olds. Just a little explanation for you there.

But you're probably wondering what that has to do with anything! Well lets see... Individual learning, leaving old friends behind, stepping out into the real world, meeting new people, studying new subjects, buses, exams, notes, folders... Wait! Folder! From that entire like, I can honestly say, that's the thing that excited me the most. Isn't it great? A few weeks ago I bought (Well, my mum paid. I chose) my folders. There's one for each subject and a big hard one for transport. Subject/folder colours are as follows:

Philosophy

Politics

English language

Sociology

I repeat. Isn't it great? I love it. For about 3 days after we bought them, I just spent hours staring at them... To me, they're like an abstract art form.

Now you might think this is a new thing. It's not. As a child, I loved boxes. LOVED them. And, well, I've always had a soft spot for notebooks. They're a staple birthday present that can't go wrong. But here's the thing. You might think I'm amazingly organised, but I'm not. I mean, my room is a mess but I know where everything is. I usually have everything with me, but not always. I'm never more than two or three minutes late. So I'm not really sure about this. Are naturally organised people unimpressed by folders? Do they stun and amaze disorganised people because it's such a strange concept? Or do all girls just have this weak spot? It's something I find it very hard to talk about, so opinions people, please!

Now I'm off to stare at my folders some more.
