I'm going into year four of secondary school. For the second time but on another level. This is hard in English since we don't have the grade system.

I guess the degree i'm doing isn't party animal type: no chance of going for a drink with newborn Christians who believe drinking is evil.

Classes! Which classes does everyone have?

Mine include; Geometry, Chemistry, English Literature, US History, and Geography. I was going to take an Art class and a foreign language class this year, but I'll do that next year.

Getting drunk every weekend is overrated anyway. You mess up your internal clock, uses way too much energy on getting the booze out of the system and you end up looking like a fool no matter how sober you think you are.

Oh, and @Jeff'sInsp: You know that trouble with books you have? Majority of my material is on the web and the rest can be copied from the books. I think I need to buy one or two books.

Started school on Friday, had been stressing over it for a week, glad first day is over and done with.

I'm going into Grade9 this year and im kinda nervous.... School starts on the 6th..

Classes! Which classes does everyone have?

I've got trig, physics, global two, gym, probably art, and I have no idea what my english class will look like. Probably just regular english. Oh, and french part two.

i'm a Freshman! !

anywho my rant is the fact in my advanced english class i lost points and got in trouble by answering a SINGLE question in a spanish, it wasn't a long question, here is what i put down: Si. <-- that everyone i told laughed at the stupidity of it



and my classes?

first period P.E. (the only class where it isn't hot enough to run and do miles while every other class gets to sit in the gym and talk) Second Geography (which i love) Third Adv. English 1 Fourth Keyboarding which is terribly boring, Fifth, Algebra i get to sit next to a cool (personality not status) person and a pothead and a cheer leader, all of which copy my answers (even though i hate math) and last i get Plant and Animal science which i am part of the FFA

It's very difficult to understand what you're talking about, but your classes seem to be more interesting than mine.


Well, my class... I had my Baccalauréat in June, exam in the end of the highshcool. I had the one called "L", about Litterature. My classes were French litterature, English, Spanish, History and geography,another English class as option, and Philosophy. It was so boring.
In October I will be at the University (FacultÃ&copy to learn about England and America history, litterature, spoken and written language.

Im going in University.I think it's like school.You have to study hard to pass exams.Your books are loooads thicker and with more pages.About 600 in each :P And the subjects you do has to do with something you are studying for.Not too general stuff.

[quote]It's sadly not as good as school. Trying to listen to your lecturer talk at the speed of light while you jot everything down can be a bit difficult, but the weekly seminars are a good help so make sure you attend them ![quote]

You are super right about this trying to listen and keep notes at the same time in a huge class with more than 200 people is not less than hell!When we got seminars though i love attending them i learn so many things!And oh my precious god!I would give anything for one day back to school!

Well my first week was... filled with a lot of work. Glad it's the weekend now.

Umm. There are already a thread named School. Either this one or that one probably should be locked. But I don't know.
