hi there a long time ago i ask you to talk to me my name was bart you said yes and we talk then a loss my password and didnt go on it for a long time but im back so do you wanna talk

plz write back

Yes I seem to remember you went to a lot of people's spaces and tried to get them to talk, I think it's classed as trolling coz you upset some people I don't mind talking to you if you're going to be nice and play friendly!

Where are you from? I'm from Colchester England, I'm currently working in Cambridge, and in a few weeks time I'm going to be back at university in Guildford.

hi mel

im from nottinghamshire in england
i will be go back to school in 3 weak

I'm going back to uni in about 3 weeks, it's the 9th of Sept we start back!

Are you looking forward to seeing all your friends again, I sure am, most of my uni mates live halfway across the country!

Mel

hi mel

yes i am looking forward to see friends but its ok for me and can call for then and hang out. but i dont want to go back to school and do
we are now in year 10 we have to pick whot to take i pick media CDT
and it.

I never had the opportunity to do IT I would have loved to though, I ended up choosing CDT, Geography and Music! Is media the sort of thing you take if you're looking to be a journalist or advertising person, I had a friend who did it at A level I think.

Have you picked them because of the career you want to follow or did you do like me and pick them because they interested you?

When I picked my A Levels the only reason I picked Electronics was because when I went round the open day they had loads of projects out on the desk with flashing lights and buzzers! Who'd have thought I'd end up doing Electronics at uni!

Mel

hi mel

i pick i.t for a career cdt because i like doing it
and meda career and a pit of fun

So do you want to go into some sort of computer advertising/journalism?

Mel

any think with pc

That is a very broad subject!

Something programming or something using would be a good place to start! If something programming than see if you can have a play with a linux/unix system at some point.

Mel

linux/unix ??? can you tell me whot that is

They are both operating systems like windows or dos.

Linux is open source, ie there isn't anyone company that develops it, and if you want something that isn't there you can code it yourself since all the code is available online to tell you how everything works. It's a common OS based on Unix.

Unix I don't know much about, I always assumed you had to pay big bucks for! Apparently it works simarly to linux but isn't always open source!
