Aye, nobody likes the midges! Stick to the coast where there's usually a nice breeze.
I swear the midges target me, I'm always the first to notice them and have the most number of bites once escaped. The little ****ers.

/me is half scottish, but don't resemble or sound scottish in the slightest!

Not too many mountains on the coast for some reason though.... :p:

Half scottish is the best!!!!!! :biggrin:

What's ur other half then? Irish? Welsh? British?

English!

Half lancashire, half scottish, raised in Kent... means I've seen more of the country than a lot of my peers, I certainly don't think life ends at Watford :rolleyes:

. I think I'd have rather been raised in Edinburgh or Glasgow, Kent will always be home but it's a bit **** and although I can usually comprehend scottish accents I certainly don't have one (even though I sometimes habitually use scottish words like: dreich, glaikit (sp?), eejit, leerie (sp?)).

By active i meant posting. I totally understand that u have to work for exams coz i also have exams coming soon, but I'm done with all my internal assessments, coursework and orals... since yesterday so u must understand my hapiness! :biggrin:

Now i have 9 days of school left and then study time until exams from the 3rd until the 18th of May... I'm so relieved now it's only memorising left... Good luck to all A-levels student who still have a lot more to do :frown:

only one project left - English, Physics and Chemistry down, Biology to go

P.S. you sissy A-level candidates don't know you're born. One course = one exam = one chance. Now that's pressure. :eek:

Actually, that's just me being jealous, but surely you must all be calmer having already got more than half the marks you need?

I'm not doing A levels! I take IB so 6 subjects for which I have just finished all my courseworks and orals (which is the reason why I'm so happy and just realxing this weekend :biggrin:

) but I still have at least 2 if not 3 exams paper in each subject... Moreover all my exams are in May and based on a 2 year syllabus... usually no one resits unless failure... So it might be less pressure coz my grade doesnt depend on a single paper but i have 6 subjects and exams based on 2 years of learning so lots of work...
Spanish language: 30% of my grade is 2 orals / i have 2 exam papers left= 40% and 30%
English lit: 30%= 2 orals / 20% coursework / 2 exam papers of 25% each
French lit: 30%=2 orals / 20% coursework / 2 exam papers of 25% each
Maths: 20%=coursework / 2 exam papers= 30% and 50%
Economics: 20%=coursework / 3 exam papers= 20%, 20% and 40%
Biologie: 20%=10 labs and a project / 3 exam papers= 20%, 20% and 40%

to an extent i guess, it just means the pressure starts earlier, you can't sleep right from the moment you start the AS course.

What has sleep loss got to do with AS course? :confused:

probably just applies to me; i thought AS's were the end of the world (as i thought gcses, a levels were the end of the world) and got majorly stressed about everything. i'm probably going to get like that with part 1A at some point. maybe.
