    He is kind of like Santa Clause, he comes once a year but only to those who believe in him. Then he rewards them with grades they don't deserve!

    Biology has crushed my soul, devastated :( Bye A, I really needed it for me like, my self esteem really needed it
    Looks like I'll be repeating. I just need a good leaving cert, if I get a bad one I'll feel like its following me around everywhere, I still feel the burden of my mediocre Junior Cert.
    *sigh*
