1. It's a beautiful feeling.
I can still remember my last day, I've been back twice since: once to get my exam results, and once to collect my A Level certificates.

Good luck on finding somewhere, you deserve a break.

20. ha I havent yet and I dont plan on it
My ideal beach week is this, bodysurfing in the day and nights on the town at night and meeting new people especially people of the opposite sex, a little hard to do that with the folks and my two brothers around though. I dont get it, the beach doesnt seem to be as cool as it was as my dad made it out to me in his stories to me.

25. So are you going to hit the college ranks in the fall?
Or you going straight in the workng world? Eighteen can be both a fun, and scary time. Enjoy it, the next few years will give you memories to last a liftime.

27. I am going to a community college so I can
transfer in to a school that will have the kind of programs i like, the schools in the state of Virginia exempting George Mason really dont have any good political science or journalism programs, like while I would like to go to a four year school directly out of HS, the areas and fields that schools like Va Tech, JMU, etc arent really for me, and besides, I am gonna be still able to have fun.

29. Good for you, and nice to see you have your prioritie straight
Fun is always a good one to keep right up there. Now don't get yourself thrown in jail, unless it is for a good cause. If you want a good journalism school, come on out here to Missouri. MU has one of the top J-schools in the country, and it is fairly cheap. Columbia is a nice little laid back liberal town to boot.

Congrats on your graduating!

31. I plan on transfering to GWU
That sounds cool too though, I wanna write politics, sports, comedy, etc, I think thats a great result of reading a lot, being able to write a good paper on say about the draft one minuite and the other being able to write a good paper on sports.

34. Oh dude, you've got to come out here to MU
Hell, you could go to MU for the journalism, and to Stephens College for the theatre writing. Plus you hook up with up with our fantasy football league, we're always looking for new suck. . . er, owners:evilgrin:

But hey, no matter where you go, have a great time!
