Petit Prince

Yes, I arrived last night. I went to the school office this morning to get my results.

Hiya! How are you doing? Just came back from town and got my results. I'm so happy!! I also had a look at the new shopping centre. The weather's lovely and I can't wait for my friends to finish work!

Because there's loads of shops?

Well if they were too easy and too many people went to college/ uni they'd probably have to something about it because it would cost too much money? I don't know how this work in the UK. But you might pass pass with the same mark someone else fails the year after because they only offer a certain number of places at college in Switzerland. However, it's quite unfair because people take the exams at the actual college so it's very much a matter of luck.

relieved.

I know. I just don't understand why it's being discussed again. If everyone was able to do well because the questions are easy I guess they'd certainly change it. I did my A Levels in a country where the exams are fairly hard to pass and most people don't even get the chance to take them. You still get a lot of people dropping out of uni or people, who study forever.

Is this being discussed every year? I don't see the point of this whole discussion. If it was necessary they'd certainly make the exams harder. It just makes the kids feel like they haven't achieved anything at all. It's not like everyone gets awarded for writing some random answer and there is enough children, who don't get the grades.

Cool! I'm so glad Spain won. And they actually deserved it too. Gotta love Fernando Torres! Sorry I'm just packing my things because I'm flying back tomorrow. I wish I was already in Liverpool.

Hello Maraina! Did you the final then?

Welcome aboard!

I'm off to bed now. Good night! :kiss:

I was only joking. Swiss people don't usually like Germany very much. Not in a serious way obviously. I've got quite a few friends, who are German but I would never support them in sports or anything like that. I see what you mean. Shouldn't be too hard then.

You might be surprised but even Germans have feelings.:P

The whole story is far more complicated haha Well you have to make sure he knows he doesn't have a chance then. It's very hard to tell someone if you don't wanna hurt their feelings though. I'm not good with those kind of things. I'm usually way too polite, which makes guys think they might have a chance.

That's awesome! Whereabouts are you going? Oh that sucks. I've been in a similar situation not too long ago. The guy I liked was in a relationship and his friend fancied me. Having said that, the situation with that guy was pretty complicated and he probably did like me in some way. But I obviously didn't try to become more than just friends with him because he went out with a friend of mine.

How come you're leaving? Haha I'm the same really. There is someone I like but he lives far away and I probably won't see him for another three months. Damn I hate the summer break.:(

In no particular order Find the one I love Have children Overcome my fear of flying Figure out what I want to do with my life Get a degree Volunteer in an African country Learn to drive Lose my foreign accent Have a dog Can't think of more right now.

I see. Must be quite difficult to really get to know someone then. Good luck with it anyway! Any idea when he'll be back?

Which other guy? His friend? Good luck with him anyway! Does his job involve a lot of travelling?

It is most of the time! My job wasn't what I expected but I was able to go to a few games and I met some nice people. Good night Rolle!

I'm fine, looking forward to going back to England now. I worked at the European Championship [football] in Switzerland, not sure how much you heard about it in Brazil. Been to town and bought a few things I needed, I also got a new mobile phone. How is life going?

Hi Mariana! :wacko:

I'm 22, becoming 23 soon. :\

I see. I haven't really been anywhere in the South of England, so i haven't visited any of those places. Make sure you book your tickets early if you travel by coach or train, you can save a lot of money. I went to Barcelona, which was awesome but it looks like it's gonna be a beach holiday this time. We need to see if we can find a cheap offer so we might as well end up going somewhere else in southern Europe. Spain would be lovely though. Good night, was nice to speak to you!

Just checking the cars were ok and helping out in the office. Not too exciting... Sounds good! We're also thinking of going to London, to Notting Hill Carnival that is. We're probably going on holiday before though. We wanna go to a beach somewhere warm... Spain maybe.
