finally done my stupid scaffold for my historical investigation essay -it's so shit. i dont even know why the teacher wants to mark our scaffold but whatever. I always manage to start everything on the day before it is due, no matter how many times i tell myself not to do it, I still do. I will never learn.

I'm just adding the finishing touches to mine lol.

I really wished I'd picked a topic more to my interest, I hate my project so much.

It was great, i finish school today!
now i can study 6-8hrs a day.
Does your school finish really early or something because I've only got 6 hours after school (4pm-10pm) and I spend about 1.5 hours resting, eating and showering. That means I can only do about 4.5 hours studying. Even if you do have a good study timetable, how do you have so much time after school?

Hey guys, for a project I am doing a petition on how the education system can restrict us. I'm sure some of you BOS users including myself hate that whether we make it into university or not is based on how good we are at memorising stuff and remembering it in an exam that has no relevance to real life. If you could 'sign' it that would really help, we want to show governments and universities that it shouldn't be like this!

Nope, i finish normal time like other schools.
I catch the train and so it doesn't take much time to get home.

That's awesome. Cello has a great sound, I like it more than the violin. Do you guys play contemporary jazz? I haven't seen many cellos or classical instruments (other than a double bass) in jazz bands. Its mainly drums, bass, guitar, sax, vocals, piano etc, but I think this is jazz/rock.

Last pic I had taken of it but I've done half the sky now :)
OMG<3 that's so pretty xD Are you aiming for artexpress? WHat's your concept? I bet you'll get into art express XDD

As a side note, idk why but it reminds me of deltora quest's drawings.... as in the style - it's really smooth and airbrush like, even though (i'm guessing here) the linear strokes look like coloured pencil.

I play netball, but am not enjoying it atm due to crappy coach... :c That and I spend junior school sitting on my rump, relying on my fast-fleeing metabolism xD;

Wow iceskaters look so graceful :) I love watching them, though I'll be scared crap-less if I had to skate lol

Pretty sure you need 120 hours to 'graduate' from prelim course... don't quote me on it though :c Although that being said, one of my friend's friend is transferring from 2u math to general next term, and like... she is not fitting 3 terms worth of hours into one term lewl

Dude your school is strict. There are kids who never come to class in my school and so far none of them have failed a course (based on attendance and not marks) (at least not to my knowledge)

dude.... you study for 4.5 hours...
m8, I go for like <1 hour per day (usually 30 min) unless it's the day (or two) before a test lewl
I congratulate your attention span C: btw dp = yummei? <3
