-
About 2 weeks, maybe 2 and a half
But this semester is a)optional and b)easy. I don't have to go, I'm just comming back for another semester to take some easy (and fun) courses to boost my marks. 1 class is Com-Tech (photshop, webdesign etc) and 2 are coop at a graphics/web firm.
-
1st September. And the most annoying: Renegade Ressurgence WILL not be ready by that time. :mad2: And when does it finish? I think I will be already free by the core of June.
-
I finished school a loooong time ago.

Bah! Lucky! Why don't you fill your birth date out? Are you shy, or only old? :)
Allright, this is a bit aggressive.
-
Done.
-
That's 27. Nine years after maturity!
So you are already redeemed. :)
-
And here I am thinking he was 14...
-
Been out of school for over a year, and I dont miss it.. I just miss the people...
-
Left school 13 years ago at 18, and I STILL don't miss it one little bit.
Some of the people there were great, but they were sort of counterbalanced by everyone else ;)
Flipside :D
-
No more school for me:D
-
*relaxes, and sits back to waits for the results*
*is so laid back that he misses the release day, and has to go to college enrolment with no results to show*
trust me folks, THIS WILL HAPPEN.
-
Bah...I would probably drop school, but when I think of the future, the fact that I want a good job with good earnings...well. :shaking:
But anyway, when I think again, the only thing good about the school is that all your friends are there. :nod:
-
Mine starts Monday next week at 8:00 AM :(
-
2 weeks, i think.
-
The worst part is that I work in a Training Provider, so I am at 'School' 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year :(
Flipside :)
-
Ha ha ha ha!!!
NO SCHOOL EVER AGAIN!!!!! :D :D :D I was there for the last time ever on Thursday, to get my A-level results.
*does a little dance of joy and happiness*
Never again do I have to sit through boring lessons, and be hassled by dumbass townies and jocks whose idea of being cool is "hur, hur, I modded my ten-year-old Fiesta with 18" alloys and a fat exhaust pipe. I is da ****. Wikkid..." etc, etc. while playing ****e music very loudly. :ick
Oops. Got carried away there. Anyway, yeah - I got crap A-level results 'cos I didn't do any work (coasted to GCSEs, got great grades, carried on coasting). So I'm getting more hours on my job, and doing something interesting at the local college (probably 'puter art and music) as well as getting some proper A-levels. Then uni in a few years, once I've got school out of my system, so to speak.
Razor - if you wanna drop school, go for it. Take a break, get a job, and go back in a year or two when you can face it again. 's what I'm doing. Take some time to live a bit before you get stuck into a "career". You'll probably never have the opportunity again (unless you get stinking rich very quick, but how many people manage that?). Life is for living, not working. Have some fun while you can! ;)
-
Starts Sept. 2nd, and (laugh at me) I can't wait. It's major boring at home...

Heh, I wish it was that easy. :sigh: But well, If I can call it this way, the best years of my life were when I was 14 or 15. But noooo, I made a stupid decission and while my friends were having the blast in the best years (parties, girls, etc...), I was doing some other crap, so I am still feelig regret. Today, I can't even convince them to make a damn party or something. :mad2: Now I have to finish this darn high school and go to college or something and see what I can make of all that crud.
-
Which stupid decision did you make? I might have made that. :nervous:
-
Just learn this. Never move away from your home country in the teen years.
-
I am already heading back to school to prepare my office. (They gave me a BAD classroom to teach in this year. :rolleyes: )
I officially start teaching AP American History (That's right, I got transferred! No more stupid and incompetent students! Yay!) on the 10th of September.
-
yeesh.. one of those teachers...
What grade are you teaching?

I teach high school juniors (11th) and seniors (12th).
-
Go back to Uni for matriculation into 3rd year (degree year) on Sept. 17. **** knows when I actually start. :blah:
-vyper (single and appropriately unsettled)
-
What did you teach before?
And man, you've got a big responsibility. Teaching history, you shape the way that these people will grow up to think about politics and social issues. Please try not to fill their heads with the same old "America is the best of them all, go us!!" crap, ok?
Some of my best teachers have been history teachers, and its one of my favorite subjects:) :)

Amen to that. :yes:

Tiara just got hired as a history teacher at a college ;)
:nervous: A teacher with an axe :nervous:
-
A college prof? Sheesh
-
I've been in school for 8 months this year, starting somewhere around January 8th. Final year for me, SPM (Malaysian equivalent of the American SATs from what I've read) for me to take.

*points to title
*cries
And I still don't know what classes I have...
-
Sept 2nd is the day that i go to my first classes at college. :ha:
-
...
Why the **** is this thread still alive?
No, never mind; I don't care. Just... don't have it be when I'm back, or I'll **** in your lungs, each and every one of you.
-
Oh pish posh, you won't be around when I dig this thing up again.
-
:blah:
-
Good thing I don't have to worry about this crap for another year. :D
-
School started yesterday.
I love it. Get to meet old friends, cool chicks, old friends that are cool chicks, generally have fun. Sure you have to study for 8 months, but it's a necessary evil. And it's for your own benefit ya know. High-school isn't compulsory in estonia.
I don't why so many people make such a big deal out of school. :nod:
-
i've been in school for 2 weeks now, and i already had my first detention (i really suck at getting somewhere in time).
although i switched schools, so i am "used" to different times.
-
Been at college for 4 days now, i wish i could just get a monkey to do it for me. Or attack my tutor group teacher while she bores me to sleep with stupid, STUPID, STUPID general studies. Be more fun than playing a GBA like i do now, or sleeping.
-
...started today....
-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
HAHA!
ha!
ha...
*remembers boot camp is in 3 weeks*
ha...*sobs*
:(

It gets better...
First year university was depression along the lines of "oh I have to do this all over again" and then I realise its not really like highschool at all and infact something much cooler.

That's one of the problems right there; total recluses like myself don't want people everywhere. :D But the real problem is with the curricula; the majority of things they teach are neither interesting nor useful in the slightest. I am better off doing math all day at home. :D I guess I will have to get back into this system next year in college though. :(
-
blowing **** up in chem class is always fun. unless your chem teacher is a boring ho-bag :blah:
i have some feeling KT will chuckle at that one
-
Actually, my chem teacher is probably going to be one of my cooler teachers of the year. :)
-
In my first year of school I had a mental science teacher called Mr Welsh, who was actually scottish. He used to electrocute himself quite a lot, and got people's attention by exploding bubbles of hydrogen. Though he and his collegues told me A-Level chemistry would be fun, which was a big fat stinking lie.
Stunaep, if school is not compulsory over there, then presumably you dont have forced upon you the company of people who really don't want to be there and will make life difficult for everyone else in order to avoid actually doing what the teachers tell them to. Secondary schools over here are full of little ****s who don't want to be educated, and make a huge fuss because they have to spend all their time banged up in a classroom. If secondaries were optional, my old school would have had about 20 pupils instead of 800.

Oh no, College is great, its just "Tutor Group Sessions" which suck ass. MUCH better than highschool, you call the teachers by their first name and the staff room is open if you need to find one of the. Much better than the days of uniform's, being shouted at etc, not as formal, as long as its not class, you can listen to music which incidently is something i spent most of today doing, though i imagine, once i start getting coursework assigned, my free periods will go to that. My college also has like a million times more money than my highschool, my computing room has a fancy projector with a touchscreen whiteboard. I could name many positive things about it, except General Studies, which sucks, terribly, excessively.
