And there were also those stupid pretests. Thank god I'm gonna be in high school next year where there won't be 6 tests in the last week of school but instead 2 or 3, or I could have them in January.

True, and in high school you get a different teacher each block. Here in middle school I only get 2 different teachers. And plus all of the kids in my grade at my school are imbeciles I always get into arguments with.

Um, the 'c' is right under the 'd' on a keyboard, so that was an honest typo lol. Don't be so hard on the little guy.
And Rush, if you think that high school is going to be easier on you as far as tests go, you've got quite a surprise in store for you. Every year that you progress in school is meant to be a little harder than your previous year... and generally with more work to be done too. Down in Florida they have the 'block' schedule type classes too, but I had 3 teachers every day rather than just 2 and the classes were 2 hours long each. Once you get ready to go to college, prepare yourself... now that's a LOT of work. Not so many tests as high school, but the material covered is covered very fast. I go to college only 3 nights a week (that's considered full time at my school), but my classes range from 4-5 hours long a piece depending on which class. Plus the fact that you have to pay for college means that you just have to bust your butt even harder. My parents didn't pay for my degree and I'm not on a scholarship either, the cost is coming straight from my pocket and once I'm completely done paying for it it will have costed me between 65 and 75 thousand dollars. Take school seriously, you need it.

yea it was an honest mistake,i do it loadsa times,
college is less lessons but more hours i didnt come back till 6.3 most of the times and my lectures were 3 or 2 hrs long v bad i had to do 2yrs in one cos i dont have a levels so we moved v v fast!

Well, it will be more quiet in the classroom in high school unlike my grade 8 class that is constantly rowdy, interruptive, and calling out during class. Thats why high school would be easier for me. And plus there won't be tests all in the last school week of high school either. You will get a week to study for them as well, unlike middle school where there is no time to study since my idiot teacher put 7 tests in 5 days.

Well I guess it depends on what it is you go for. What are you studying anyway if you don't mind my asking? As for less lessons, not in my situation. Each quarter is, of course, 12 weeks long... but we cover all the material between 1-10 weeks, then finals week 11 and the 12th we actually have off between quarters. 3 classes a week, each a different class ranging 4-5 hours a piece. I'm supposed to learn all these different computer programs, design, movie, animation stuff... just one day a week a piece for that little of time a piece. Work 40-50 hours a quarter per class, know it and present finals... so we go super fast and they practically jam it down our throats. It's a pain in the a** but worth it. I'm working my way towards working for Dreamworks or Pixar designing 3d movies, so my degree is costing a pretty penny lol. However the money I'll be making in the field will be even nicer.

What's up with The Don's obsession with Miranda? Trying to make himself look tough and cool by saying 'Ummm...re read what you write', lol, then saying her an icon of a rose. Bwahaha.

First off, he's not 'obsessed' with me kid. We're a family, have 3 children together. He can send me anything he feels like. Why do you care?
Second, if you *look* at his response about that, in the quote section of *your* comment it shows up as 'grace' instead of grade. Somehow there was a glitch in that quote so his response was valid.

Okay, sorry. I thought you weren't married and just recently met each other online. Jeez. And just because I spell grade wrong (well it was a typo in my case) you and your husband don't have to throw a fit. Say hi to The Don for me lol. Thanks. Bye.
