I like algebra, I think it's pretty interesting. Though I am a bit weird....:D

Same, I like how it's so simple and you have to follow a set formula to get a certain answer. I also hate creative things like writing stories as my imagination is just really bad.
 
I am odd though. I hated maths yet loved science. (Then tried physics A level. woops)
 
One thing I'm not educated on, and they don't teach us in school - Why are Korea making all these damn missiles? To kill us all?

I don't follow the news, but when I see a bunch of rockets being transported through the streets over there, I wonder.

Communism and dictatorship.

They hate America and europe as a comunist country it hates capatalism as communism doesnt work unless it spreads. The missiles are ATM a show of strength but I do see a war on the horrizen.

There is alot more but I am too tired.

And who actually believes the north are thinking about defending themself? They want to first take over the south then spread for both the communism side of things and the fact that they want more power.

The fundamental problem is that this view is held by the small self-perpetuating oligarchy that is the North Korean leadership, not the will of an underfed people who's budget allowance is spent on the military. Invading the South would be suicide anyway, the American support is strong for them.

EDIT: On topic, I have 16 lessons a week, four per subject, each an hour long.

About 50 - 60 minutes.

So you get the same as I get on a friday every day.

Hmm but then on thursdays last year I had to do 9 till 8 every thursday and 9 til 6 the 2 years before that so I think I earned my break :D
 
I have 6 classes. Each 55 minutes except the last that is an hour long. Lunch is half an hour. Unfortunately, I have to go back to that schedule as spring break was last week.

I'm a tad afraid now actually, why can't everyone just chill - my answer to all the worlds problems. :lol:

Chilling = being passive in my eyes. To solve problems that face us we almost always need to be more productive, not less.

Stop being so pessimistic. I find it really hard to break stuff down and take it in when reading books and such but at least I put in an effort. If you want to find truth you need to put in effort, and it looks to me that you are lacking this effort I'm afraid to say.

If I took all of your money, would you still be "chillin'" at home? Or would you stand up and do something?
 
I have 5 1 hour lessons a day, with two 15 minute breaks after 1st and 2nd lesson, 40 minute lunch break after 3rd, and a 5 minute interval between 4th and 5th lesson, mainly to get to the next lesson.
 
Before I got to bed 1 message.

School is awful I still think that ( Why the hell people say they wish they could go back is beyond me) but you learn what you need. Once its over you have a choice. Don't let school being bad stop you from going into further education. I love it at college yet I hated school.

6 Classes a day, Mon-Fri. 7 minute gaps in between each to allow you to use the restroom, get to your next class, etc. Classes are 55 minutes. Between 4th and 5th, we get a 45 minute lunch break. School starts at 7:30, ends at 2:30. Except during Standardized testing (Next week! Thank god!) and Final Exams.

On those days, school starts up at 8, and ends at about 12:30.

Because a 40-something minute lunch period is required by the state, the school makes it after you're finished with testing. Because of this, you aren't "Technically" allowed to leave the school for 40 minutes, even though you have accomplished all of the work they have to give.

The result of this is the 9th and 10th years are Required* stay the extra time to eat lunch, while 11th and 12th years(who have registered their Drivers license with the office OR 10th years who have exceptionally good grades, thus earning them a special tag on their Student ID, who ride with a qualified older student, because they can't drive.) simply "Go off Campus for Lunch" and then dont return.

*Unless your teacher is really nice and doesn't turn you into the office for just leaving with your Brother/Sister/Friend who is an 11th or 12th year.
 
My high school was 5 days a week, 4 blocks a day, with each block being roughly an hour and a half long, much like jcm's. Not very enjoyable.
 
I'm currently a freshman in high school (graduating in 2015). No group really annoys me here, as I just stay with my own buddies from middle school. My grades have been excellent so far, straight As with only one B the whole year. I'm currently taking one AP class for college, World History, which can be a bore at times. I'm talking to this girl that I really like and trying to establish something, but she has a boyfriend so...yeah, wish me luck people. :scared:

I've met some new friends at high school, but I mostly stick with my 8th grade friends. Even though we got separated, we're all still close. We go on PSN every weekend to just chat and play some COD. Ever since I got GT5 on launch day, all my friends think that I'm freakin obsessed with it :lol: It's pretty much GT5 or BF3, and an RPG in between, like Skyrim or Mass Effect.

School starts at 7:20 and ends at 2:20. Six classes/periods. The usual, I guess. I take band, currently playing the flute but also willing to learn sax or piano. I'm never really into sports, but I plan on joining the track team for sophomore year.

I should probably get to bed. Standardized testing tomorrow :grumpy:
