I start school on September 7th and am looking forward to see my friends again, I think schools fun as long as the work is easy for you because you get to be with your friends there everyday.

I'm anxious for a teacher that knows what the heck they're talking about, but I doubt I'll get one of those.

If the teacher doesn't know what they're talking about, wouldn't the principle or somebody notice? You would be learning false information so school would just end up getting you stupider.

The irony is ironic.
And no. The principal and other administrators would notice, but frankly, school nowadays is about children scoring well on tests, not about children actually learning. Have you heard about the principals and teachers who helped their students cheat on tests so that the school would get stimulus money from the government?

well I don't exactly like the work at school but I like it better than staying at home and doing nothing.

School thursday, but 8-hour long orientation tomorrow, since the power at the school was out today, they combined 2 orientations.

You wouldn't if they got caught, because it would mean you would have to retake those tests under harsher conditions later.

Anyways I'm officially in college now as of today. Having all of my classes in the afternoon is probably going to be weird(that's how my schedule is) but overall I'm actually quite excited about it.

8-hour long orientation tomorrow


I could be mistaken, but aren't typical school days usually 7-hours long?

Orientation isn't an actual school day, it's used for filling out the paperwork and its replicates, getting schedules, paying fees, etc. Although I've never had one 8 hours long before, usually they last about 3 hours if that.

School on the 6th, I get to be a Senior!

awww i actually really miss school. finished it this year (and unfortunately college will remain a dream...). the work isnt great but school has some nice feelings to give you. you get to see your friends every day and MIGHT actually learn something XP.

lol in here sundays are normal school days and you have a different schedule depending on the subjects you learn. in 10th grade (i think) you can choose your groups and one of the groups lets you choose some of your subjects. so there are almost no students in the class that actually have the same schedule. we also used to get some really twisted schedules. i started 3 days in a row at 10:00 o clock and finished 2 days in a row at 17:00 my friend started at 10 2 days a week and finished at 17 3 days a week.

but yes we have normal school days on sundays XP. i wish i could continue studying

Nobody notices. They either talk out of their butt until I prove them wrong or they read from the book without being able to explain anything.

Yes. Didn't they all get fired or something? I don't think it was for stimulus money: it was because schools with low scores were being shut down.

Our orientation is combined into our classes during the first week of the school year: we get our timetable a week before but we go to classes as scheduled and each class takes care of the admin during the first half of the class: registering for exams, sorting out assignments and booklists, then the second half of the class is the start of the lecture.

You guys have it lucky. I'm going to a school with a bunch of people I haven't seen in years. I have French and Gym for my first 2 classes, and Math and English for my last 2. At least my sibs say most of my teacher are cool. Canadian schools only have 4 classes a day.

I had a seizure on my second day of classes.
Luckily I had went home before it happened.
My professors were all nice about my work though.
Almost dieing is a good excuse I guess lol
