RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Roan - Dec. 31, 2008 Yeeesssss My copy of Oryx and Crake came today. Can't wait to read that carp. RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Bey Brad - Dec. 31, 2008 ffx what the hell are you talking about RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - May The Pirate - Dec. 31, 2008 2 hours and 20 minutes here until 2009. carp get the year over with already!

This year was carp for me, can't wait for it to end. Next year my resolution is to have more fun (and since seeing "the yes man" to say yes to more things).

I said the same thing last year, but hence ill say it again "I doubt next year will be as bad as this one." But every time, fate/karma/whatever decides to bite me in the arse and prove otherwise. RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Roan - Dec. 31, 2008 boo hoo RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Pikachao - Dec. 31, 2008 (Dec. 31, 2008 10:43 PM)May The Pirate Wrote:(Dec. 31, 2008 10:39 PM)Bey Brad Wrote:(Dec. 31, 2008 10:39 PM)May The Pirate Wrote: 2 hours and 20 minutes here until 2009. I'm seriously pissed that my holidays are almost over. After these holidays I have months of solid work for my GCSEs. By solid I mean, weekends I'll have to work, holidays I'll have to work, after school I'll have to work, my lunch break I'll have to work, and I'll be getting less sleep because... I HAVE TO WORK. I don't think next year will be good.

This is me all over. I am dreading next year. Every evening I realise I'm a day closer to my GCSE's and have a mini panic attack. I'm so doomed. ;__; RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Pikachao - Dec. 31, 2008 (Dec. 31, 2008 11:20 PM)yruahippo Wrote:(Dec. 31, 2008 10:58 PM)Pikachao Wrote: I'm seriously pissed that my holidays are almost over.

I HAVE TO WORK. lol, yeah. But all the teachers say "the first thing they look at is GCSE results". No. They look at attendance, no attendance no job. Then they check your qualifications from the highest to the lowest. Sure, good GCSEs will help and I'm in no way saying to slack but they're just wrong. Good attendance and AS, A levels and a degree or some random guy who fails at life but has good GCSEs and never turns up to work? As an employer I'd take the first guy tbh.

I'm am SOOOOOO hoping that isn't true. If they pay that much attention to attendance I should literally just give up now. *dies* RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Dreamborn - Dec. 31, 2008 (Dec. 31, 2008 10:58 PM)Pikachao Wrote:(Dec. 31, 2008 10:43 PM)May The Pirate Wrote:(Dec. 31, 2008 10:39 PM)Bey Brad Wrote:(Dec. 31, 2008 10:39 PM)May The Pirate Wrote: 2 hours and 20 minutes here until 2009.

But I've done literally none of the coursework. Well some of it. Basically, even if I ace my tests, I'm still kinda screwed. RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - May The Pirate - Dec. 31, 2008 You've got until, I think, March (Well I had anyway). Depends on what youre behind with though. Just make sure you get at least 4 A*-C grades (Including one english, maths and science) and you should be alright. I had to hold back a year on Biology because I needed maths (Which im resitting because I had a D thanks to my teacher going 'You didnt do part 2 of the coursework, so instead of marking part one like im supposed to, you just get a 0') What are you planning to do after high school? RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Rocky - Dec. 31, 2008 March? That's even worse than I thought. Definitely doomed now. And I have no idea. RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - May The Pirate - Dec. 31, 2008 You just need to work work work. If you can get help from teachers, get it. and if you fail a few grades, just retake them, if you get a D in maths, you can usually resit between November and January provided you find the right place. the other subjects probably border similar. Thinking of exams, I have my psychology mock next Thursday @_@ Though they gave us ample time to revise since we've had 3 weeks (Technically 4 for me because I only had college 1 day on the last week because Photography was cancelled) off XD I just feel uncomfortable having to write about a 3 year old having a form of sexual desires towards his mother and wanting his dad dead eventhough he loved him (See psychology Sigmund Freud).

Attendance shows that you're reliable. If you get a job and they show that you're punctual and have good attendance for a long period of time your next employer will be likely to overlook bad school attendance, especially if you got good school grades anyways. All I'm saying is, GCSEs seem to be more of a thing to help you get into A level and stuff rather than something which majorly affects your job (unless you stop school after GCSE). Either way, try to think that there are many people who are in major jobs and get paid a lot of money but get no time off to enjoy it? =/ RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Rocky - Dec. 31, 2008 But if I fail my GCSE's I can't take A-Levels! Also, I'm terribly unreliable (when it comes to school anyways). To be honest I'm probably making a much bigger deal out of this than need be. I'm pretty sure I can get at least 4 A*-C's. I'm just really terrified of this upcoming year...... RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - May The Pirate - Jan. 01, 2009 I know how you feel about being scared of them, but once theyre over and done with, youve got 8-9 weeks relaxing. Also, if you have bad attendance now, but have a pretty much ace attendance in college, they'll pay more attention to that than your high school. Otherwise I'd be carp since I ended up ill through most of year 10 (Due to health problems) and missed most of my year. So long as you make it up in college, they'll actually look at you as reliable because you can choose to go without your parents getting into carp. Meaning youre choosing to go, so youre in a way, reliable for being punctual to a job if you want to do it. That probably made no sense what so ever XD RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Rocky - Jan. 01, 2009 No, that made sense. I guess that's okay (providing I even get into college). Sucks about your year 10 though. Wait, by college do you mean sixth form or uni? RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - May The Pirate - Jan. 01, 2009 College is well. For here, sixth form is where you stay for an extra year or two in high school. you can choose this or college (Though you can still go to college after sixth form) This is where you get: A-Levels National Diplomas B-Tech's Then it's Uni where you go on to get a degree in whatever. Never knew that England and Wales had a different system XD RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Rocky - Jan. 01, 2009 Actually, I think that's the same as over here. I've just never really known what college was......we don't talk about it much at my school. RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - May The Pirate - Jan. 01, 2009 Ahh fair enough XD..You are aware that Wales is the really small country attached to the left of england right? XD Saying "Over here" makes it feel like we're abroad XD RE: Random Thoughts 2: ok, more like misc. thoughts - Rocky - Jan. 01, 2009 It's a reeeeeeaaaaaaaally long drive though.
