They went OK, but the pessimist inside me refuses to let me feel good about any of them haha. Which Spanish exam did you have? I had AQA Spanish on the 17th
ohh right, i have two history papers, an english language, and maths paper but i have this week off
how come you want to go to an international sixth form? ooh good luck for raising that.. its a lot of money
How come you have two? (Forgive me for me lack of knowledge with GCSEs ) That sounds like a good mix to have left, apart from history - I wouldn't like to write all those long and tedious answers
Well, it's not just any sixth form. It is part of a network of schools called the United World Colleges - originally founded by Kurt Hahn with Nelson Mandela and the princess of Jordan as co-chairmans. It's mission is to promote peace and understanding by bringing young people from around the world to learn, live and work together in the various colleges. There are, I believe, 120 countries represented throughout the schools; to apply you have to go through your countries 'national committee' and they hold interviews, select candidates and administer scholarships.
The reason I have to raise so much is - despite the fact that 60% of all students who attend are on scholarships - our national committee is quite poor in terms of money and can only give out 1 or 2 full scholarships (in addition to the places at colleges where everyone receives a scholarship) and a handful of partial scholarships. That leaves the circa ~20 or so people (me) with no funding.
Sorry if this is ridonculouslly (my way of saying ridiculous) long
Cool! I congratulate you and hope you relish your freedom for many days to come (I'm not off until 12th June)
Well, I still have to go to school on the 7th. We start our next classes in June with July off. (I need to bust my ass to get money for UWC as well, so not really free )
At least you don't have to go to school after that.

Got any holiday plans yet?
Nope, but I have majestic ideas that i'm sure will unfold themselves in time (or maybe not)
