You arent supposed to laugh. You were supposed to say "aww jimmy p, I'm so sorry for you, let me send you a cheque".

A couple of people I know resitted their A-Levels and got good results. I think it would help a lot if you did this. You'll just be a year behind your friends, which isn't so bad as you'll still get to see them. :smile:

And, you may even be able to get them to help you with your homework, which is definitely an added advantage! :wink:

:smile: :smile: I am already a year behind my original friends. This would be a year behind the friends I made THIS year. I'm sick of lame-levels. I'll reap my fortunes in the world of full time work or rock stardom. But I need your cheques!

i read your journal : "But life goes on". By saying this, i will guess that you are just doing fine because you know that life goes on.

Girlfriend? What is one of those? I haven't had one for almost 10 months now. They are almost a myth now. Another reason why it sucks. :mad:
