[BluehempXE]

I'm not in school til' the 8th of September.

[Kantes]

im not in till the 6th :-D

Im taking

Normal core subjects (ie English Irish Maths etc)

German (honours)
Business Studies (honours)
Accounting (honours)
History (honours)
LCVP (special thing here i dunno if you guys have it)

[slimscane]

irish? honours? LCVP?! Also, what level core subjects...I am guessing you are brittish or engish or live somewhere in the british ilses (honours, honors)

[Kantes]

...irish...im irish...thus taking irish :-) (ps. please dont call it part of the british isles it could get you killed here, republic of ireland, the north is in the isles(there's some ireland info for ya))

Honours = Higher Level?, like.. honor roll maybe?

Ummm im taking ordinary level (pass? lower level? not high level?) Irish at the moment cause my teacher is a bitch.

Rather than taking the SAT's we take the leaving cert. so LCVP = Leaving cert vocational programme. It's that or Computer studies (so lame at this stage), First aid or childcare. In LCVP you learn about enterpising and stuff like that it's meant to be really good. It's a lot more than just that but since our system is alot different id just confuse you haha sorry, or i could explain what we do then explain it. Your choice ;-)

Though it should be noted that in NZ the school year starts in late January and finishes mid-November, so I’ve sorta been there for quite a while :)

Honours = Higher Level?, like.. honor roll maybe?

so LCVP = Leaving cert vocational programme.
Oh okay, sorry about that, didn't know. I figured out the honors thing, it is just another way of spelling it. We have honors in the States too

[foxy]

My schedual is still messed up. I have AP English IV, AP Statistics, AP Government, and AP Art, and French III. I was pissed because I had to drop AP US History for Government and French, which I haven't had a class in in two years (Too many classes I wanted to take were schedualed in the same timeslots). Currently the second half of AP art is missing and I have Office Assistant there until they can get it fixed.

[Kantes]

Oh right yeah Honours, Honors, Colour, Color. Meh

Ya there is indeed a big war going on here...in fact.. we are full of terrorists.. the IRA?

[8 Ball]

Its been going on for over a hundred years or so hasnt it?

[Kantes]

bit less i think, see we were a colony of england and that was like a war but a civil war, the war in the north has only been since we got some of our counties back (states?) IE the republic of ireland :-).

[8 Ball]

You guys need terrorists like the middle east.
