High School is (finally) over for me. Finals results came in… and I got the best possible English grade there is… (Laudatur) …Good results for Finnish and Swedish too! (Magna)
So, who else here is graduating from a well of education this year? Personally, I commend such persons for completing a dire task such as graduating, since… well, you bothered, and you succeeded. Congratulations. Party’s on the last weekend of May.
I Convocate next week from Memorial Universty of Newfoundland, with a BA in Social Cultural Anthropology. I’ll be returning there in the fall, I think, to do my Honors, and scout around for a few good places to apply for an MA.
Once my highschool finishs I’ll be a graduate. When that time comes I never -ever- want to go back to highschool. Sure it’s easy. Really, really easy. You get to see your friends no matter what! But frankly, after 12 years of the same system with little to zero choice, I am glad to be gone.
… which is funny since if you asked me this, like, 7 months ago I’d be mortified at the thought of graduating
I’m graduating highschool, and then there’s a two year Computer Technician course at the local college, which if I take, can get me into the fourth year of a five year Computer Network Engineer course at Carleton University. 2 year course counts as 3 years, I’ll take it
I graduated from high school last year, and decided to take a year off before going to college, so I’m heading to my community college this Fall for two years, then transfer to either Michigan State or UNC to get my degree in teaching.
I graduate from gymnasiet June 11! AND I GOT MY HAT TODAY!!! OMG OMG OMG!!!11 :hyperven: :victoly: :yipee:
And I’m not going to explain the Swedish school system; no one cares or will remember anyway. =P Gymnasiet is usually three years and you usually graduate the year you turn 19. Jing was an exchange student, so Jing is a year behind. Which is awesome because I loooove my class and I’m so happy happy bounce bounce that I get to gradute with them instead of those boring people I was with in grade 1 (yeah, gymnasiet has grade 1-3 =P Or 1st - 3rd ring, but no one says that anymore) and when we got the hats everyone was jumping around and cheering and singing the graduating song and it was so much fuuuun! ^^ bounces Ignore me. >>
I think Weiila posted a pic of herself in her gratuating hat if you’re wondering what I’m talking about.
Oh, and then University this fall. Psychology, I hope. Mmm…
