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.

"Promise me that you will never give up, no matter how hopeless it is".

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:
