All finished!! Now I have study leave, without exams to study for! Hooray!

All exams done now, no exam leave though :(

We were given a week of study leave - I had 2 exams before that period, but now 2 days free! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

You got study leave!? Bah! That's no fair. :(

Yep! A whole week. Well, 6 days and the weekend. Guess that comes to more than a week. Although there are some poor people who have a Biology exam on 30/01. So they don't quite get the guilt-free days that I do. I rather like being in a class where I'm the only one who doesn't do biology - Free lesson to annoy the teachers.

Most of my exams are late in this semester...

Oh, those of us taking AS/A2 levels will have more come May and June. But I've had the last one for this season.

English tomorrow!!! *gah obsessing*

I would have gotten a cold.

I already had a cold. That just made it worse.

Studying World War One...

Myth debunking time: getting cold does not give you a cold, kids! Colds are an airborne virus and you get them from contact with other people, not from getting cold!
However, one study did find that if you've already caught the cold virus, getting cold can bring on the cold faster/make it worse.

I know that, that is precisely what happaned to me.

Oh, come now Ben, English exams are easy, I just took mine today.

Unfortunately, I have history tomorrow.

Could someone please explain to me why Trudeaumania is so important nowadays?

We thought it was odd that we were so obsessed back then, aren't we just passing it on to another generation now?

Yes, he was a good Prime Minister, but why do we need to memorize all of the insane things that his "fans" did?

I love no-longer being in compulsory education. No more impossible essays to write.

I finished English/compulsory education today also!!

What was your essay about?

Why do they hype it up and it's simple? I didn't finish the Romeo and Juliet part (skipped it to start essay), and my essay was missing a conclusion because I ran out of time, but the parts on literary terms and grammar were extremely easy. All in all, pretty good, considering we only had an hour and half and my Lego Yoda pen kept breaking.

My conclusion was so damn sexy...my topic was appearances vs reality and I concluded with the quote: 'the truth will set you free' *sigh*

But mine was short, only 8 pages, and I barely explained the second point, just threw in a lot of examples.

!? Only eight pages? In an hour and a half exam?

I like the truth will set you free. But you can't handle the truth is also good. Because some people just can't accept the truth (i.e. global warming).
And eight pages!? Damn that's a lot. Must of have been odd to ask for more paper...

No, it was double spaced and we got 2 hours and like 10 sheets of paper each so it wasn't that bad.

But then we also had to do the sight passage paragraph and stuff.

And still, it's easier than math *facepalm*

I repeat Sent's comment. Even in 2 and 1/2 hours, I'd be lucky to manage 4 1/2 pages. Saying only 8 pages is harsh. Cruel. Impossible for anyone with dyslexia, dyspraxia or dysgraphia.

But then, I find Maths easy.

Is that eight sides or eight pages? Eight sides in two hours isn't too bad.

It's one-sided 'cos its MLA format. But other people got up to 12, so it's not all that good..

I'm good and the weird math, like permutations and z-scores and stuff, but I suck ass at trig. I can't do proofs =[

Nah, eight sides in two hours isn't loony.
