Mr. Carrot

Ahh, last day of school today.
Just gotten my grades... I am so happy.
Think I should fill you in a bit on the norwegian school system before i give you the facts.

We rate our performances with numbers on a scale from 1 to 6, where 6 is the top grade, only receieved at exeptional performances in that subject.
I am now in my first of three years of "Videregående Skole" ( I think that would be something like upper secondary). Some of the subjects I've had this year, I will not have the other two years, so the grades I got in those three subjects this year will remain standing, and will be printed on my final certificate.

OK, here goes:

Norwegian, written: 5
Norwegian, Oral: 6
English (Final Mark): 6
Maths (Final Mark): 6
Gymnastics: 5
French: 5
Choir (This is not a very serious subject, they only tell you if you've passed or not...): Passed
Musical Knowledge and Musical Analysis: 6
Dance (once again a passed/not passed subject): Passed
Drama: 5
Art and kultural history (final mark): 6
Instrumental knowledge: 4

Behaviour ( Here, the grades range from good to not good): Good

Woo Yay! I am about to burst with happiness, my average is 5,4
AND, I don't know the results of my exams yet... But there is a slight possibility that I may be able to increase my average performance a bit with the exam-marks as well...

But now summer's here...
Let's enjoy it with some good music, like CAKE...
I love that band, really, I do! Love their sound...
