No no, you don't have to, being confused is quite fun in a way...

¦M¦

Only if your only confussed for a bit. After a while it gets a bit depressing...like in Maths.

No no, when that happens you're only depressed while you're trying to do it. Once you stop and do soemthing else in Maths it goes away after a bit...
Or that's what I find, anyway...

¦M¦

Well, I think your cleverer then me. But I didn't fail my as modula! I just nearly did...

nearly did? you should learn to fail maths properly girl, like all good achademics, except geeky ones (sorry anyone out there who likes maths past gcse - but you know it sucks). i'll have you know i resat my pure 1 module 3 times and still only got a d (or was it a c? can't really remember). my n grade to start with should have told me i was on the wrong course, but nooooooo, it was too late by then. at least young yangle only has to do maths this year. i could afford no such luxury. goddammit.

you know what i did? eat boosts and yorkies on the days the vender had chocolate in it. me and my mate sara used to stop off there before maths in order to buy something to take our minds off the torture ahead. chocolate is goooooooood and i'm so craving. maybe cos i'm lacking in sugar - lollys just aren't the same (although you do meet cute lads in the queue in the union shop when you're buying a nutrigrain bar and a lolly for 40p which is all the money you have in thworld and your hair is purple).

just me then?

Well I'm doing further maths and I actually quite like it.

¦M¦

my maths teacher said i should do that at the beginning of the 6th form. ha! i like not that. i am an english student and proud, and would not stoop to such levels. each to their own though. especially if you have more aptitude for the w*rk than i did. which isn't hard really! good luck

but seriously... the thought of further maths is just... ick. couldn't cope. maths sux. having to do pure 4 before pure 2? no thanks. the syllabus's changed? i know. it sux, cept it means i never had to do mental arithmetic! woohoo! i am *so* the calculator generation. i rock.

... or something...

*mutters something about not stooping to the level of doing English*

¦M¦

english rocks my world. hey, i'm literary!

"to read makes our speaking english good" - xander (buffy)

everyone's a critic.

Tell you what, I won't criticise English if you won't criticise Maths. OK?

¦M¦

ok. well, it's just that *my* experience of maths was not good. after gcse anyway - it was dead easy and quite... fun?... back then. basically i should have changed course to sociology, art or something i was better equipped to do. realised too late, doh! oh well, i worked hard for my e.

Aww!

¦M¦

You guys got all that from me simply saying that i *nearly* failed? ...Cool!

Indeed.

¦M¦

Well, thats certainly impressive! Well done, thats quite an acheivement!

Why thank you! *bows*
*and violins*

¦M¦

Hello.
I got a C in stats, and the backspace key on my keyboard just fell off.

Ah well....

Cool, well done!

Only the backspace key, eh?
*tries not to rant about the school keyboards again... *

¦M¦

Right, so how exactly did you manage to make the Backspace key fall off Rob. Again, snaps for a brilliant achievement.

My my, aren't we all doing wonderfully well at things at the moment?!
