wow girls flock to me

They actually let you wear a hat? We've been banned from it for 20 years. D:

And the 18th is wayyy too early. I don't go back until the 2nd. I mean, we only had orientation today!

School usually starts between September 2nd-7th here.
Ends around June 21st then exams start.

I don't plan on finishing high school though, so I haven't really paid attention to when it starts.

Going to try to get a GED.

And how are you starting 8th grade when you haven't been held back?
You joined 2 years ago as well.

I was turning 13 when I started grade 8. ( December baby )

I'm confused, but I suppose it doesn't matter.

[poleaxe]

I started yesterday which was the 18th but today I have off due to the tropical storm/mini hurricane coming through today. Hopefully the power doesn't go out I'm gonna be really bored if it does.

You should find out the eligibility requirments in Ontario just to make sure you know exactly what needs doing to write it.

"Most children begin elementary education with kindergarten (usually five to six years old) and finish secondary education with twelfth grade (usually eighteen years old)."

Wiki seems to suggest perhaps that in the US they start elementary school a year later than we do. In canada, you can usually figure out someone's age from grade by adding 5 years. Grade 12 = 17, Grade 8 = 13, but I guess if they start later, he could be 14.

Regardless, I think it's pretty much been accepted that Mans0n is either UUA or used to be UUA and kept his mouth shut long enough to turn 13.

Also, haha school. Suckers, I already graduated.

Mans0n fix your signature.

I started 2 weeks ago in Japan, and I will start 2 weeks later in America.

Mine starts September 2nd, right after Labour Day.

Senior baby!

[spinal_compression]

I start on September 2nd.

You register an account, and then you can either send money from your credit card directly to someone else's paypal account, or you can tie a bank account into your paypal account, transfer money from the bank to the paypal, and then from the paypal to anybody else with paypal.

If I only had money. I still have to write two essays for History, along with reading 5 chapters from the book and doing a worksheet for each chapter.

School starts for me on the 25th, and I've done no work at all. Procrastination ftw!

[championanwar]

27th of september for me
hahahahahaha

[Wineandbread]

I start on the 25th, like several people here.
I'm a little behind in summer reading, but I should be fine. >.>

[devonin]

I'm a little behind in summer reading, but I should be fine.

In 20 years of formal education I've never once had a single summer assignment, a single piece of summer reading, or really anything whatsoever connected to school to do during the summer ever.

Is this a US thing? Everyone keeps talking about summer schoolwork, are you actually in "Summer School"? Or is this just a standard part of your education?

[ooobl.]

yep 25th for me.

duder that's my weekend only wear now. my high school has super strict dress codes. tucked in collared shirt with no logos or anything and dress pants with a leather belt. plus dress shoes and matching socks.
EDIT:
Devonin, some schools have you do work over the summer here. most have you read stuff. i have to read 3 books and write an essay using facts from all of them. otherwise, they might have summer assignments because they really screwed up a class during the year.

[Netjet!]

I start high school on the 2nd. Yay for grade 9 freshmen year!

Also yay Ontario

[s0ulst0n3]

I'm going to be starting high school too, Mitch. x:

Yay for Ontario! And nerves!
