Well I was just wondering (if you are graduating grade 12 this year or just going into high school) what are your plans for life? Also when College/University are/might you be going to?

I still have yet decide what courses/job I want to have but. I know that I will probably being going to one of the colleges in Toronto for (whatever course I want to take) then go to Toronto University for another course or one similar. Then probably after that go to University of King's College in Halifax then get a job.

I just want to point out that I don't recommend .Yunoko taking advanced college courses, as he misspelled both "collage" and "unviersity" in the topic title ;) lol

But no, I think I'm just going to take courses in my local Community College's Computer Engineering program, since it's just as beneficial and gets me certified in the same exact things as say, Michigan or Michigan State would, and would save me significantly more money. I also don't think I'd be accepted to those colleges lol. My cumulative high school GPA is low, even though I am very intelligent, and I'm not just tooting my own horn here. I slacked my entire way through high school. I did no homework and got A's on tests and quizzes. As long as you payed attention in school, and learned the topics at hand, that's all you really have to do to "pass".

I didn't pass with flying colors, but I'm certain that I got the "most" out of my high school experience. As for details, I don't think I need to mention. I'm not sure if my girlfriend reads these boards or not lol!! - but she's at least heard rumors.

I didn't do well in school, but that was by choice. I was a straight A student until I decided to slack and actually have an amazing social life lol. At least when I'm on my death bed, I will be able to say that I lived while I could live, and I died when I was tired of living.

I had decent grades throughout my whole junior and high school years, I think my only weakness
subjects were Science and Geometry. But, I was able to make it up from summer school which
I had to go to about 4 times each year.

Being a Senior now kind of sucks for me, I mean theres so much things that are required just to get a diploma, I don't
even want to bother listing them right now, because just thinking about it really makes me sick to my stomach.

There were no subjects in school that I did poorly at or did not understand. Math is probably my weakest subject and I'm not weak in math at all. I had to take summer school as well, but that was much more related to me failing Art two times than anything else... yes, DPM failed Art class, not once, but twice. The first time I purposely failed it freshman year. It was my "BS" class that I often ditched or left in the middle of or w/e. The second time, I was behind, but my teacher knew I was really good with sculpting clay, so she told me that I could make up my work by making a large clay sculpture. So I started making another video game character, Ganondorf ;) - awesome sculpture idea, if you ask me. Anyways, I nearly finished with the bottom half as well as the head/ hair/ most of the face. I worked on one of the arms, but then I fell really ill, and I missed over a week of school. And if you've worked with clay before, you know that it dries up if you don't keep it moist, and if it dries too much, it's not workable anymore. Needless to say, neither the teacher nor two of my friends that I asked to make sure to keep moist paper towels around my clay and keep it in plastic bags came through and kept their word, so my project was ruined.

In my opinion, I'm actually a pretty good artist too - go figure, but that's just the way the cookie crumbles, and I made up for it.
