I only do six subjects - English, Maths - Unit Standards, Science (as a sixth), IMT, History and French.

Next year I have put down to do five - English - Unit Standards, Maths - Unit Standards, History, Media Studies and Biology. I'm really thinking twice about the last two.

Thanks!!

Hey Jan!

I got up at 6am this morning and done an hour study on why the UN and the security council were formed. I'm going to drop a kitten off at the airport in an hour so thought i'd give myself some TCS time!

There was one other in the litter, a tortoishell girl - she was still born but I did work on her for a good fifteen minutes.

Isn't he gorgeous Jan. He has his eyes open now - I got sick of looking at them closed so I gently opened them yesterday - not as much as a yelp!

Gainsborough?? You'll have to fill me in!??

Lots of good luck vibes going your way Sam!!!

(though I don't think you'll need it! )

Congrats on the new job!!

Lots and lots of luck heading your way from me Sam

Lots of luck and good wishes Sam. You go girl!

Lots of luck for you!!

Good luck, Sam! Like Eddie, I'd also recommend "The Autobiography of Malcolm X". It's fascinating. You might also be able to rent "Roots", a TV miniseries based on Alex Haley's like-named book. It's decades old, but quite good. The book is probably still in print, too.

Sam...you are an exceptionally bright young woman. You will do great in your exams.
Congrats on your new part time job.

Good luck Sam - sending loads of *pass the exams* vibes for you. You've been working so hard, I'm sure you'll do just fine.

Don't forget to let us know how you get on.

Good luck, Sam! But it sounds like you won't really need luck. You'll do fine.

Good luck, Sam!

Sam, Congratulations on the job, and best wishes on your upcoming tests...sending positive vibes wafting your way

I know you will breeze through them with no problem, Sam. Best of luck!!!

Best of luck on your exams Sam...but you always do well!

Congratulations on the new job!

Best of luck with your exams Sam!!!

And congrats on your new job!

I'm sure you'll do fantastic! But good luck anyway!

Definitly might be one to read in the holidays. I've heard great things about it. I'll have to check these out!

Just come on to check out my thread, I've been studying hard about Microbes for the past hour or two!

Went out for lunch with Nana and I really started to think about what I want to do when I leave college - definitly uni!

Thanks Tricia, and thank you everybody for your congratulations and your positive encouragement. It really helps.
