Well at high school I was told that if you didn't get such a many GCSEs for their league tables then your life would be over

You sure? School almost drove me to kill myself!

Different stroke for different folks. But they really emphasized how important college was to us since we were little. Plus, it sounds like fun. I have to make a decision for my majors and minors...but I have an idea. It's not like every college freshman in the world knew what they were doing before they got there. Meh, I like using my brain.


I guess that's true, my parents never encouraged college to me nor bothered starting a college fund for me.

I don't really like being around people my age anyway.

What are those? :scratch: I got mostly A's in high school, so I was fine.

I'm sorry that's what happened for you. School wasn't really the factor that I hated, a lot of those teachers were really cool, and the classes were fun...but some of the kids weren't. Not that they drove me towards that state (it was a mixture of a whole bunch of crap. Trying to say, different strokes for different folks. (that line is epic)

Yea, my parents had me wanting to go to BYU since I was little little.

Meh, I can take it. I love classes anyways, I just hate any other part of school....especially lunch time...bleh.

Yea, I miss it...but there are parts I don't miss. It feels weird because I graduated this year but that's why I need to go to Uni and forget about hs now!

I don't miss a thing about it!

GCSEs are exams you take at 16 - the top grade is A*.

I won't be going to the pool for a week. My least favourite time of the month is here as of today. Men have so easy.

My mum once told me that high school years are supposed to be the best years of your life. My high school years were the worse years of my life. The past two years since September 2009 have been the best years of my life. How many more good years can I have being myself? :)
