General Discussion [Off Topic Chat Thread]

Have really no idea what you were saying about school but in our school you can't really raise your hand. Without being called stupid by other students. So I never raise my hand, meaning I don't understand even simple math now. I remember trying to learn how to play guitar... Didn't end well.. XD I'm such a slow learner, that sometimes, if I don't understand something the teachers just tell me off. :/

Haha. I can already tell school is getting on our nerves already.

We have such a horrible teacher for our RE lessons. :3 Are you guys forced to do RE lessons, too?

It be Talk like a pirate day! Arrrg! XD

XD

No. I take RE lessons at my church, but it's against the law to enforce religion in public schools.

WHAT?! D:< You're schools just get more cooler and cooler... We're forced to take it, whether we want to or not. -.- You guys better be grateful to your school. XD

Wait, you mean all schools? Not just Catholic ones?! O.O Wow... That doesn't seem fair... Even in the pledge of allegiance, we don't have to say "under God" if we don't want to.

Actually we only have Catholic schools in our town... Apart from one, which had recently opened, but it's only for future engineers.. -.-

Wow. O.O Sounds like the board of education really screwed up.

You got that right. :3 The school uniforms are so uncomfortable too. ;_;

IKR.  

What? :O Yay! I thought that all American schools can wear whatever they want. Do you have to wear ties and huge a$$ blazers, too?

Lol, nah. That's only for the boys in the school. For me, I just normally wear leggings, shirt, a shirt that says: Summit Academy Master School. But our school rules are strict.

It depends on the school; they all have different rules. At my old school, you couldn't dye your hair or wear anything distracting. At the school I'm at now, you can wear anything non-suggestive and dye your hair (my friend Severina has bright blue hair), but you're not allowed to wear hats or loiter after school.

You guys are still really lucky. -.- we're not allowed to do anything, not even let your hair down. You have to have it tied up at all times. We're literally robots. XD I don't know how. XP

That's terrible. :P
I have a sore throat today so I get to stay home.

You're allowed off for a sore throat? ;_; We're only allowed off if we vomit or have a terrible headache. Or injury, of course. :3 I'm moving to America!

Seriously? :O

XD No, I think she's joking.
Mainly because I lost my voice. I guess it's kind of considered ditching... X3

make yourself vomit 365 days XD

I don't think that will be good for my health. XD Ugh I'm so exhausted.. There's so much extra work. I only have a year and a half left of school. Do you guys call the final tests GCSE's, too? Probably not. :3 But I'm having my final test in Maths this year because I'm not smart enough. I can only achieve a C maximum. >.< We're not allowed to get any higher in my maths class.

No, I'm sadly not moving to America. :3 If I was, don't you think I would try and make arraignments to come and meet you all? XD

EDIT: Thrillex, sorry about the lack of posts in the RP's. I'm just worn out. 3: I'll post replies at the weekend. ^^

In California, we call it the CSTs, which stands for California State Testing. I'm sure it's different for other states, like Arkansas would be the ASTs and South Dakota would be SDSTs or something...

Ah, I understand. It's school time, and were busy with school work. So, I get it. Okay

And I thought you were really moving to America... -_- I was about to tell my mom to cook some food for your arrival...

XD If she moved to America, she'd probably get picked on, unfortunately, depending on where she moved to. There's a lot of racists here... -.-

Wow, didn't know that it was called so many different things in other places. XD Anyway, our Government changed how the tests work out. Making it like.. 50 percent harder then it needs to be. -.-

Sorry, Thrillex, but I'm a picky eater. XP I most likely won't like the food. Or know of its existence. :3 You guys call food some weird name. >XP

That's ok, I'm not even bothered about being called, anyway. I've been picked on in my own country loads that I don't mind about childish comments like that.
