I can never, ever satisfy my parents, and even when they know I'm not satisfied with myself, they never let me forget their thoughts, either. They have to remind me constantly. I don't know if it's because they think I don't care enough, or what.

I don't talk about my grades until the course is over which leads to problems like now when I pretty much failed my two half credit courses.

It was also a bit weird since this semester was my first semester at my school. I wasn't really sure what I expected of myself, nonetheless what my mom expected of me. Also, my high school did grades with numbers, not letters.

I recognize the addiction to being alive.

We got numbers in high school, too. But my mom will literally sit around with a calculator and compute letters to number to GPA, etc.

Eek, that doesn't sound very enjoyable.

We get numbers at my school. And they don't give us a GPA, the bigger schools do but mine's too small. I think one of the biggest problems is the difference in standards and grading from high school to university. I had a B+/A- average in highschool, now I'm fighting just to get a C. And it's not like I've lost any skills on the way, I'm the same I've always been.

I'm like Billboard- I'm never good enough for me. My parents were ok students, but not great ones. They don't feel like they can really be pushy about school, but then again, they don't need to be.

I don't know how I'm doing right now. We've hardly had any grades this quarter; it's been a lot of long term stuff.

I miss the number grades from high school. They're just so much more specific than the letter grades. It bugs me that I could have the exact same grade as someone whose exam average was 5 points lower or higher than mine.

I was used to getting grades in the high 90s all through high school and now I'm basically in that limbo zone between an A- and a B+ in most of my classes, and I don't like how that feels.

I'm all happy right now. I just got an "8" on my first timed writing piece in AP English.

Good job Atrias. We don't have AP classes here, so I have no idea what you're talking about, even though I know you've all tried to explain it over and over again. An 8 sounds good though.
Have fun BBG.

It's a level of scoring. 8 out of 9. So, an A! *dances*

Hello i just got back from the tap audition and...

i think i did really well

it was rythem tap and i was always taught broadway tap, but i took a few classes [rythem] here and there. But i think i did really good and i might actually try taking a rythem tap class now.

about the clothing [a page back or so] uhhh...i am a size 00-0 SHORT! so it really sucks. i can hardly find pants that fit. Once in a while i find a 0 short, but most stores don't carry it. Most 0's regular are super-long ..ugghh.. I have a really tiny body and i'm only 5'1 and am built like, i guess you can say, a dancer and it's sooo hard to find PANTS!

My mom totally thinks i'm obssesed with Adam

But w/e i don't care. I got Civilian for Christmas and really like the CD, i'm listening to it now.

I'm in High School now and we get numbers..i know some high schools that give letters, which is a little strange. I like numbers, it's much more specific than letter grades

Yay! 8 out of 9 is much better than, say, 8 out of 50 or something.

When I was in grade 12, they were just starting to use the letter system, so we got both on our report cards. Everybody ignored the letters, heh.

"i am a size 00-0 SHORT!"
Me too!
And its really frustrating because all my pants are a little big on me and if I want pants that will actually fit perfectly, then I'd probably have to buy a kids size and have a picture of Dora on the side of each leg.

Our school system was too messed up. Ontario used to have OAC (or grade 13). My year was the first year without it. So we got the five year curriculum squished into four years. Which led to two grades graduating and going to university at the same time, which caused a lot of panic.

I remember that, Snowbird! It either happened when I graduated, or the year before... I'm not sure. But I definitely remember the big "TWICE AS MANY ONTARIO STUDENTS ARE APPLYING FOR UNIVERSITY!" thing.

I think I'm a year ahead of you. I started university in 2003. It was crazy, and I had a messed up education. In first semester the teachers were a week ahead of us in the curriculum.
I don't normally watch Will and Grace, but I watched it because of Taye, and it was brilliant.

Heh, that's probably the fan I shoved in through your ear, Em. I'll turn it off now.

I don't think, other than here, I have ever once been called mature. It terrifies me, because with maturity comes growing up, and that scares the socks of me.
