I was going to start tomorrow... But I've decided I'm not going to any more. I'll do it after my enrollment - Friday @ 11:45. Pretty damn nervous.

In my school 2 people got 9A*-A:rolleyes:


I wanted to know the general statistics that the school will be judged on like %5A*-C including English and Maths.My school is below average for high achievers but is above average in general because it likes to cheat the league tables, by focusing on C grade pupils and entering pupils into loads of qualifications so they get 5A*-C.

Will never understand how having 8 hours sleep this morning caused me to be more tired than when I had no sleep yesterday

Happens when you wake up and it's not the end of a sleep cycle

The last time I downloaded 20GB worth of data it took 2 months.

That's why :wink:



Well when the blu ray set is over twice the price it's pretty pointless to buy that if I just want to watch it and sell it again.


Are you connected to a local McDonald's? xD. I use websites if I cba to download anything, watched the whole of breaking bad on letmewatchthis!

Streaming videos is also out of the equation because it takes 10 mins to load a video at lowest quality that is only 60 seconds long!

That's worse than DVD quality anyway, and so are all the rips of the show on 'certain sites', so DVD was the best option for me :frown:
Happy birthday dude woo! :woo:

Also does anyone have a stationary list that I'll need for my subjects?
I'm doing Maths, Chem, Bio and Physics.

Mine does that. It got 69% A*-C (up from 65%).

Not at all, I find that all the rips were in HD for certain shows, even breaking bad. With a good monitor, you have your own home cinema :biggrin:

About 2 weeks ago, I went for 5 weeks. The vast majority of my family live there.
