Good news everyone, thanks to the royal wedding guess who gets a day off work :D

This I found out (working togeather with other public holidays) means I get a 4 days at work, followed by a 4 day weekend, followed by 3 days at work, followed by another 4 day weekend, followed by another 4 days at work.

Yay holidays :D

Unfortunately that isn't till a while away so I should get exited just yet :(

Time off is always great until you are in the middle of your break and you get called into work.

:(

I know how that feels... its happened far too many times a half hour after I go to bed.

I have a house full of girls today, and I have a son. I don't even like trying to figure it out. I won't worry until he is older. I should enjoy the break. Instead I have furniture polish on one and windex in the other. Sit down already!

Well the Superbowl is over and my Steelers lost, congrats to those Packers.

Just wanted to mention that I will be out of town most of this week on business, see you when I get back.

Finally, the wait is over... and heaps of things are coming quickly now...

Anyway,
B (9 8) in General Paper [basically english, 7 being the best grade and greater number means lower grade]
A* (1 1 1 1 1) in Chemistry [1 being the highest grade, so is A*]
A* (1 1 1 1) in Mathematics
A* (1 1 1 1 1) in Physics
B (7 10) in French [same system as General paper]

That is 3A* in my mains, 2B in my subsidiary subjects. Not very happy about the languages, but I think those results are satisfactory (even if that's not what my mother is thinking). Anyway, I was never very good at languages :o

Woo Hoo! It's snowing again here. It NEVER snows this much in the part of Tennessee I'm in!

albear · Feb 7, 2011, 10:05 AM

Congrats Unky, well done :)

Also Congrats on the snow J :D

Wondergirl · Feb 7, 2011, 10:07 AM

Congratulations, Unky! (Does anyone ever get C or below? Can someone fail? Are there orals?)

Congrats too to J_9 (I guess). Chicago got three more inches yesterday, so I'm ready for spring now.

J_9 · Feb 7, 2011, 10:11 AM

Living in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Alaska, I miss the snow. I miss driving in the snow...

Even though it's just an inch or two here, it's still exciting to me.

Unknown008 · Feb 7, 2011, 10:31 AM

Thanks Bear and WG! Good news J :)

Yes, at the other extreme, there are ones who get U (unclassified) where they are considered to have failed. (Pass percentage I think is around the 76%) And depending on the subject, there can be or might not be oral. French main has oral, but not french subsidiary.

I don't mind driving in the snow... I DO mind driving in the snow with all these idiots that act like they just got here after growing up in the equatorial regions.

And Unk... those are pretty respectible grades. Better than I ever got. Congrats.

88sunflower · Feb 7, 2011, 12:45 PM

Great job on the grades unky.
