That sucks. When I was your age, I used to save money I get for Xmas, Birthday and other stuff for console I wanted so I pay for it. That way nobody could take it from me since I was the one who paid for it. But I don't think my father would do such thing in the first place since he never took away stuff he bought for me.

But school is even more so boring, therefore it's a +. ;)
I'd rather be in school than being bored and do nothing so that's a -.
I'd rather do nothing than memorize items I'll never use in my life for eight straight hours.

Seeing as the subjects I do now are by choice, despite there being some things I don't like, I still think overall, it's more enjoyable learning.

At least it will get me where I want to be in life. Staying on the couch all day wont.

I gained psychological insight through some studying today which revealed very important understanding, and the minus is that I was near this girl I like in the school library and got too nervous to say anything, so I went away, how depressing...

Zepto may sound insane when you look at the homework on your desk but as I am living that life right now I can tell you that that homework is a blessing.

There is more to life than simply school and sitting on the couch when not in school.

- Yesterday I had to fill in for my friends paper run and I just HAPPENED to get the paper which had the "best of" 12 page lift out in it. If my sholders had hands they would be filing a complaint. They hurt SO MUCH!

School in New Zealand is a bit different
We have 4 terms of 10 weeks in our school year.
Between each of these terms their's a 2 week break with the exception being term 4 where we have an extra long 8 week break over Christmas (we have Christmas in summer here).
Today is the last day of term 3 for me.

Hm, interesting, I'll see about looking it up, it's not a system I've heard of before.

Ah, ok.
Here, we have three terms, each consisting of around five week halves, in-between each half, there is a one week holiday. At the end of a term, there's a two week holiday, unless it is summer, in which case, it tends to span from late July to early September.

I could say the same for my system, 'tis what we're used to which makes it easy to understand.

Even there he would take it away because I own anything until I'm 18 apparently. :boon:

Ah yes, although I don't have homework but if I had any I would do them right away to have time during the night.

Maybe for you but I can't do anything else really, I sit on the couch all day with my laptop, I have nothing else to do. :( I wish I had something else to do than drawing but meh I guess I can't do anything else.

That's unfortunate Zepto. That's awfully unfair.

It sure is, the fact that I do efforts to get them but apparently I don't own them and can be taken away or even sold by my parents is one of the things that upset me a lot.
