Bad Week

man, i've had the worst week possible so far. im in grade 12, and i now know i didn't get a huigh enough mark in my law class to use it for univercity. i needed 65 i got 62, and now im pretty sure i failed english 40s. so in otherwords i wasted an entire term which i will have to retake next year. and to think i accually studied and tried really hard this year. all the other time i slack off and fluy through the course

im now at least stuck in highschool for one more term. no fair

i hope y'all are having a better week than me

Here's a tip, Vampiro. One of the best ways to become a good speller is to become a voracious reader. Seeing how words are spelled will help you to spell them. You don't have to read the dictionary! Just read good books, newspapers, magazines, etc. It will also help with grammar. And DON'T GIVE UP! Remember, Einstein was once labeled as stupid and unteachable. Hang in there!

Vamp, Do you have the spell check turned ,when you send e-mail?

It works as a teacher too.


Some of the hardest parts of the english language are:
Homonym's- 1 of 2 or more words that sound alike or are spelled the same but, have a different meaning.
Antonym's -Words having a sense opposite to another word
Synonym's -Words that are identical or almost identical to that of another word of the same language.

The correct usage of the words:
There
Their
They're

* Grammar *
Maybe meet and get to know someone from England,they teach the best grammar in England.

Isn't the Engish language Wonderful ?

well my girlfriend is having a worse weeek than you, her dad is dieing within the next day or two, because cancer ate through his artery. I'm stuck in a position where i care a lot about this person but due to our age and my only being a boyfriend don't know what to do, or what's even appropriate. Do ya'll have any advice on this? I try and let her know that i'll be there for her no matter what but i don't think it sinks in because i've been trying to let her know that since we met, and she still hadly takes me up on the offer. I feel this yearning to help, but don't want to overstep my boundaries?

Having been through this myself years ago, The only thing I can suggest to to be a Good Listener.
Sometimes it's easier for people to grieve until it becomes easier to accept,by having a sounding board to talk to and vent their feelings.

Don't be distant, and try not to be over-bearing.

This is devastating to the family and a lot of emotions will be flowing through her viens for some time.

Act responsibly and everything should be fine.

Hey man, I've been in college for five years. Hang in there and you'll see the light at the end of the tunnel. Then you can go to college for 5+ years.
