Thanks for the info 'Rock and rose' :wink:

If I was to live there, I'd have to get a job because of visa and stuff. Where would you say is the best island to live on?

Are there a lot of jobs in Hawaii? Or is it generally like holiday resort?
I'd really like to live there. I was thinking of New Jersey as there are lots of jobs, but it doesn't seem as nice as Hawaii. Engineers get paid loads in America! :woo:. Average starting salary in the UK for a graduate engineer is about 20-25k, in America it is $70K. Do you think if I lived there long enough they'd allow me to stay there permanently, or would it be if I lost my job I'd have to come back to the UK?


Oahu is the best island to live on, because that's where Honolulu is, and therefore it's where most of the "regular" jobs are.

New Jersey is a bit a dump. :colone:

Once you've lived there for five years, you could apply for naturalization, so you could stay permanently.

It's nice, but expensive. Not for me sadly.
Jesus Christ it is expensive! I didn't realise how much it cost! :eek:
I love Ben & Jerry's.

Can't argue with that :biggrin:
We have a McDonalds outside our school, and it's monopoly season at the moment! So I'm a regular there :biggrin:

They have one of those near to my sixth form. But it's expensive, like £5 for a quarter pounder meal. That'd be thousands of pounds if I had one everyday :colondollar:

Thinking of buying some Harvard clothing to replace my Cambridge gear :cool:

Or I might get Yale.
While there's a few of us here, should we just take a look at the awards category list from last year and see if there's anything we could add/remove? Obviously everyone else can have their say too later, but it's going to be very unlikely that a whole load of us will be on here at once.

Waterloo Road was too sikk!!!


They going to do another series in Scotland. That was a dumb ending though. Mr. Chalk (the fat guy) probably dies.

I've never been privileged enough to have any Ben & Jerry's. :frown:


A few weeks ago,there was free ben and jerry ice cream for charity and even with the money given for charity they were extremely cheap.What you mean you'v never been privileged enough?-If you want one that badly just buy one:confused:

Yeah I like University clothing it makes you unique from the sea of generic brands - Hollister, Jack Wills, Superdry etc... I still buy some of those brands though.

Lol I think I was kinda' generalising... It's a franchise so prices are the same everywhere I think, apart from London.

What is your favourite (current) flavour?

Mine is The Vermonster.

My favourite retired flavour was Dublin Mudslide. Oh how I miss it. Although they still have that flavour in the US, so I make sure I always have some, when I visit my family.

Have you seen how many flavours they've got over in the US? Loads more then we do here.

My favourite US flavour is Cake Batter, which tastes just like cake mix, it's divine. I also love Cinnamon Buns and Pistachio Pistachio.

Scotland is gonna be a bit weird. I reckon DSC and Kyle might form a new gang go up scotland and have a bit of fun.


But that ending made it obvious there would be more Waterloo Road since they will defo have to inform us who dies!

Waas weird how tariq went up but not his sisters nor finn; they shudda planned that a bit better!
