Tell me about it. The first two days (today was the second) were horrible because we didn't do any work. It's not that I absolutely love work, but they told us that the first 2 weeks (ouch) of school will be activities to "get to know each other". The hideous devilspawn is referred to as "Tribes Activities". It began with a lot of "how do you feel" questions, but then it got more serious. They gave us a test to put us into personality stereotypes. I was an "I", which mean social. We get to choose our own classes, but they all stink.

I think the only thing I ever truly hated about school was those tests asking me about my feelings and whatnot. I saw absolutely no need to tell them how I feel, so I usually put a smartass answer of some sort on it.Needless to say, I never did too well at the beginning of the school year.

dam high school seems like just yesterday, but here I am 3rd year in college, working towards programming degree
S
I'm doing that too, I just started my first year though, 5 more a head of me...

4 more years of school ahead of me... but this is my last year at this crappy charter school (you "graduate" after 8th grade), and I'm going to a community collage that offers a high school program, so I'll be taking high school classes with collage classes. The best thing is, all of the collage classes are free for the high school program, and because my older brother went there I automatically get in :PI'll have a (free) associates degree in computer engineering when I graduate high school. I'm really lucky.

When I'm done in 5 years I'll have gotten around $15k USD from the government just for studying. :D

If I chose to do surgery at Melbourne University (i was thinking about it) the government was going to be playing about $150K over six years :P The best degrees are for the rich here so the government gives out scholarships to make up for it.

Wow. We have to pay triple that here.

Okay, third day is the worst. Found out almost of of the new kids are total dorks. They think they're hilarious but nobody laughs at them. I don't really like those kind of kids. Not that I'm going to tell them I hate them, 'cause that will get me in trouble. Their total dorks.

Omg, you were following the same lecture?! Like walking straight into dorkville. I know our university has a bad name when it comes to this topic, but now I actually know why.

Hm. Well, these kids mostly come from a suburb complex from a neighboring town. No wonder everyone is lame.
