What're you friends doing? That'd give you a rough idea :smile:
That's the problem. They're all going as a group, as characters from something (I won't name what just in case they see this :biggrin:). I'm not a fan of what they're going as, so either way I'm screwed. Maybe if it's not compulsory, I won't go. But who knows? :s-smilie:

Half my year are already on it, I'm technically *late* in getting it done. What do you go on study leave?

Well, it's what I'd do! :ninja::tongue:
Interesting. :wink: I feel that about History sometimes.. I feel like I'm the only person I know who genuinely loves it (not at GCSE level though! :biggrin:).

What's the problems with English Literature? It's a shame that a lot of us on here do different books and poems, so it's hard to help out with English Lit. :frown:


Lmao! Not a good indication of how much you know though is it! :P
It looks like we are in the same predicament! I can't talk to any of my friends about Maths or Physics as a topic of just 'General Discussion', as they are deemed as strange subjects to like, let alone want to talk about in spare time! :P so, I just keep my mouth shut and read books, and pick the Maths and Physics teachers brains :biggrin: I really cannot wait for A-Level :')

As for English Literature, I just cannot stand it.. I don't know why, I just find it so excruciatingly boring! So much so, that it is painful to sit there and study the subject for the necessary amount of time! :frown: I sit there and listen, and slowly I just drift off, and think about maths. And before I know it, there's a question on my desk that I have to answer, and I don't have the will power to even attempt it!:frown: it just bores the living daylights out of me..

i watch silent witness....
My mum just said she wants me to drop my plans to take A-Level music, and take biology instead, so I have two scientific subjects.

In her words, "I can understand you taking history, Latin and Greek, as that's the area you want to do your degree in, but you don't need music do you?"

No mum, I don't need music, but I frigging well WANT to take music as I enjoy it.

She drives me potty at times.

How come?

My study leave is really late as my head teacher says its better if they hold onto us for longer. I can kinda see what he's saying cus' most of my school probably would do no work. My study leave is on the13th, half way through my exams :/

I don't even know why I enjoyed it so much! I just ended up finding it really interesting. I performed better in the Stats exam than I did in the Maths Stats and Probability paper. :biggrin:

13th May or June? :smile:

At the end of the day, they're your options, not hers! :smile: Pick what you want t take, not what anybody else wants you to take. You're perfectly bright enough to make your own intelligent desicions :smile:
