So I was sat in the common room this morning drinking tea and generally not doing much else, and my friend Loz rushes up to me and goes, 'I'VE GOT TO APOLOGISE TO YOU!!'
Me: ....Why?
Loz: Because I killed you!
Me: o__O
Loz: In my dream last night!
Me: Wha - how - why?
Loz: It was your idea! You were at my house and you were telling me how you loved

I really wish I applied for Southampton now :( I never realized Wales resembled a pig's head by the way.
Ehehehe, I love that pic of Gareth ♥ That's really got me in the mood to RP now XD

But you will be in Loughborough! Which is probably nearer to where I live now actually O__o not impossible. Also, about Wales: HOW DID YOU NOT NOTICE. The entire UK reminds me of a man riding a pig; Scotland is his head (with a top hat on) and then Wales is the pig's head, and beneath that, Cornwall-ish-way is the front leg and London-way is the pig's bum.
Before you ask, I once got 28% in a Geography exam XD.
I knooow. What made me laugh most was in the comments below where someone pointed out that getting on his knees had been his idea. Heee <3

I had to do Geography for three years. Making pig analogies was how I passed all that time. Albeit not the exam, obviously.
Can I also be in your bunk?

Aww, it'll go quickly ^^. We're lucky cause we get quite a lot of study leaves... but if it makes you feel better we do have a ridiculous amount of crazy-important exams worryingly soon. I'll romp in the sand dunes and think of you all XD.

No way! That's so unfair =/. We had to go back to school after exams last year when there really wasn't any point, cause we were all going to be in different classes this year. But at least we got study leave.
Btw - Sweeney Todd icon? <333

I wish I could spot images like that in countries XD.
My kitty likes to sleep in the washing machine, lol. I hope I do not shrink her one day.

LOL, don't wish that! It's probably a test for schizophrenia or something; 'can you see a man riding a pig in this map?' XD
=O Make sure you don't try out any new washing powder when your cat's in there. See, this wasn't just a surreal anecdote, it's a FABLE. I have taught you a moral message! I feel so fulfilled...

Washing machines are not for living things. Good lesson.
Also, I saw in a comment something about a fifth year. You actually go by YEARS, and not Grades? I knew this, and yet I am shocked. So what are you, in 12th year, like I am in 12th grade? I was born in 1990. Any school system other than my own confuses me to death.

LOL. Yes we go by year. Usually 12th grade would be the same as our year 12 I think, but because our school is posh it works on the same system as Hogwarts, with year 7 = first year of secondary school. So I'm in year 12/ upper sixth (cause after first to fifth year you just have Lower and Upper Sixth before you leave). I was just talking to Izzie about school systems actually, and none of us understand each others' ^^.

That underwent a botched up gender-changing operation.
Yes, I have disgusting thoughts, thank you for asking. Also, HOORAY FOR UNIVERSITY! I cannot believe how long the English educational system is. I'm younger than you and I'm already almost halfway done with earning my degree. This is so wrong on so many levels.
Take me to Southampton with you, Indy? ♥

I KNOOW! I'm so excited. And eee, I can't imagine it any different to be honest. Though admittedly everyone's sick to death with school now. But how does the Filipino system work, then? Cause when we're eighteen most people leave home to go to uni (or get a job or whatever) so by then we're old enough to get university accomodation or rent a shared house, and you're legal to do more or less anything in Britain (besides the obviously illegal X__X lol). But if you're younger, do you just stay at home as sort of an extension of school? Or do people just generally not move away to the same extent? Or are the legal ages different? I CAN'T GET MY HEAD AROUND IT, haha. Crazy talk.
Y/Y. START SAVING FOR THAT AEROPLANE TICKET, IZZIEMELOVE. ♥

Lol, well we have three years of pre-elementary school (Nursery, Kindergarten, Preparatory). And then we have six years of elementary school, four years of high school, and then four or five years of college depending on the degree you want to finish. :D And then, that's it.
Most people finish by age 21. But if you're like me who is a nerd and studied early and stuff, you finish by age 19. Basically, while all other college students are living it up, going to bars and drinking and stuff, kids from the Philippines are probably not even allowed to step into bars.
XD It's cool.
OH I WILL. YOU BET. Once I'm old enough to get a job that is.
