    Its a tad early, but what are you doing this Summer hols?
    I was asking a few of my friends at school what they were planning on doing after we finish our gcse exams and then go on study leave...then the summer holidays
    Everyone seemed to be doing something interesting
    Like
    Going to summer classes
    Going to New York (lucky them...)
    And going here and there...whilst some of them are just going to sit around and wait for their results to come out...

    But anyway,
    what are you guys planning on doing this Summer? XD

    I don't get to go on those holidays away but i tend to just go out a lot with friends, cinemas, shopping and stuff. Also because my parents are separated i go out for the day with my dad to theme parks, maybe even france to do some shopping But i am hoping to have a summer job to earn some money. Luckily for me i can find my Aslevel results online so i don't have to make sure i am home,

    3 day cruise on the Ventura, and ten day girly holiday in Tenerife. We're all recently single so it is so needed! Can't wait!

    Other than that, work work work.

    France, maybe for a month if my cousin goes to Argenton with me, otherwise just for a couple of weeks, and then I'll meet my parents in Holland to see relatives. If I get into UCU I'll probably stay with my cousins or grandmother for a month until the end of August instead of just going for a week or so. Spend days on the lake in a boat with a book and a kroket sandwich

    At weekends I'll hopefully be doing some face painting at a nearby RSPB site where my boyfriend volunteers and his parents work, in the weeks... chilling out, hopefully spending time with my boyfriend, getting ready to start uni and going down the beach a lot if it's sunny! I love living on the coast :awesome: oh and hopefully going to climb Snowdon with my boyfriend this summer too. Kicking it all off by going on holiday for a week for my 18th birthday with family and boyfriend which should be awesome :gah:

    I am moving to Germany in the beginning of June so my summer will be general Au pairing aka taking care of the kids, just getting over culture shock and travelling all around Germany.
    Hopefully visiting UK in the end of the summer to see some friends.

    yeah, well france is close and you can actually spend a whole day there shopping and be back in time for dinner :P haha, and yeah totally considering thorpe park
    Maybe another retail job, i had one last year so at least i have experience this time and for finding my results online its goes on my college site, i guess it would be difficult if they had to give all 2,000 (or so) of us our results on paper,

    LOL! So true!
    Another retail job? What did you do beforehand?
    I wish I did all my exams on edexcel so that I wouldn't have to go to school to collect the results...its so long and pointless!
