now I've got a three month holiday until Uni starts, and I'm really
hoping I get into the good one... I'd say my chances are 50/50 so not
keeping my hopes up. Even if I don't get in, still have a few other options which I'm guaranteed entry into.

So am I still allowed to post here? Or have I gone past the age limit :O

congratz on officially being done with highschool!

now that you are an old man, begone from these forums jk

I've only just sat my exams, and the results don't get back to us (or the Unis) until late January. So I just have to wait for 2 months until I get the heads up or down. And I still haven't actually decided, so I've applied for both physics and mechanical engineering, as I still have tons of time to decide. So it's just playing the waiting game now, waiting for that letter to come in the post... fingers crossed!

And to fill the time in between now and then, I've applied at burger king haha. Going to try to work 20 hour weeks, get some decent cash earned.

what times today's match on for you?
I'm listening to it at the moment and you're up, but not as much as i thought

I have a 55% in the behind the wheel portion of my driver's ed class with 2 or 3 days of driving left, lol

Ya know technically that is the great lakes in your avatar. The midwest is a combination of the great lakes and heartland regions.

ALL BLACKS 32 - ENGLAND 6

Was a bit of a weird game overall, not enough runs and too many penalties. They were all correct, I think the ref did a good job. Haha can't believe how many yellow cards England got either. But yeah, ABs were playing really defensively, which made the game pretty dull to watch. The second half was awesome though! So, New Zealand return home without a single loss, after beating Australia, Scoutland, Ireland, Wales and England. Not to mention defeating Australia and South Africa earlier this year in th tri nations. Great stuff boys

Ahh and tomorrow is the final day for exams for the whole school, and textbook return day. So it will oficially be over! There's a huge end of year party that night as well, so looking forward to that

I'm not going to deny it you guys are easily the best team in the world, however that's almost the problem when it come to the world cup, you guys know that and there is too much pressure on you.
But yeah seeing dan miss those kicks was a surprise.
But we lacked discipline and gave away way too many penalties
but the ref was way to soft on your captain

its about zero centigrade right now, but the frost bit was from one of
those ice packs that you smash and then use - my fault left it on bare
skin for way too long but it actually kills

The essay topic I have to write about for English:

The Scarlet Letter- Trace the evolution of the scarlet letter "A", i.e. the designations of "adultery," "able" and "angel"; insofar as our concerns as readers rest foremost with the protagonist, be certain that each tenor makes reference to the possessor of the letter "A" only, namely Hester Prynne; this means that, at the very least, that of "angel," since it was originally intended not for Hester but for the recently deceased John Winthrop, will require some unraveling of Hawthorne's symbolic network; nevertheless, as we demonstrated in class, just such symbolic connections, among many others, do, indeed, exist; I would recommend that you pay particular attention to the statue imagery as well as the mention of "the coming revelation" found at the very close of the romance.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!?!?!?!?!
anyone?!

Do you always have to complain about the Scarlet Letter?

I think it's saying trace the evolution of the Scarlet Letter through symbolism and statue imagery, though I'm not sure because I've never read the book.

yeah, I hate it when teachers do that. They could easily put it in words I could understand but nooo.

I've never read the book, and I didn't really get that^. Maybe you should ask the teacher to explain it better.

I'm guessing it's due tomorrow and she had a while to do it though.

Yes or no on this hoodie?
