ours is based off the farming year, and it sounds like yours is at least somewhat based on season too. =P it's a completely irrelevant system now because kids aren't used as free farm labor anymore, but I do appreciate getting the summer off.

ours is based off the year o_O we have short breaks between each terms

**shrug** I don't mind the way we do it. I hate going to school in warm weather because I get lethargic and don't want to focus on anything. short breaks are always nice, but having a long one is good for me.

*pounces on lucid and ashy* then some school districts here have too many kids so they have to use track systems and will have 3 tracks and you get like 2 week breaks so that not all of the kids are at school at the same time. it's kinda silly if you ask me.... but i guess it works.

that sounds really weird. o.O

Airi, I think it's time for me to start actually learning my new address. XD it's getting to the point where my current one isn't very relevant.

Yes I know... that's what my cousin has to teach on and i am continually confused about her schedule!
I'll text you the new address.

o.O so weird. I would hate to be on a schedule like that!

YAY TEXT! **cuddles it** :3

Me too! It was so hard to figure out summer schedules because they'd get like 3 weeks off for summer and then the rest of the time they were in school.

three weeks? DDDDDDDD:
that's awful. I need my 3 months of relaxing recharging time. D:
This summer, I plan to learn how to pixel! **points triumphantly to the heavens**
I really want to get practicing RIGHT NOW, but I should really be doing my projects that are due in like a week. D: on the other hand, I'm really just wasting time posting anyway...

*giggles* well they get three weeks ever 2 months or three months? i can't remember which..... but yea. and yay for pixeling!!!!

that's still not enough though. D: I would just feel consistently burned out. three weeks is like Christmas Break, which is a nice break but it's never enough to prevent my lethargic spring feelings.

Yeah i know! I have no idea how they do it.... but i guess they get breaks more often than we do.... so that might help it?

yeah, that could be it. it could also be getting used to the system. we were raised on this one so we're used to having a big long break. or maybe they're just the sort of people who like it better. my RA is insane and has gone to BYU for like 6 consecutive semesters or something, and is planning on going straight on through to graduation. @.@ I think I would die.

I would die as well! I am dying. But yea my cousins all grew up on it.

we get 6 weeks at christmas time >.>

But christmas time is also you guys' summer.

yeah and i dont think you guys realise how hot our summers are ><

my dad knows..... he has to go to australia for business trips.

hopefully not north queensland, or in summer

i dunno i have a filipino friend who always bitches about it being hot here ><

but yeah you are much closer to the equator than us :P

i love rain

if it rained every day id be happy :D just during the day not at night >.>

it did here too and it flooded abot the same time you guys were flooding :P

well if you lived up in the tropics maybe :P

well yeah in the great dividing range(mountains)

also in the southern parts

nope, i live in queensland :P

yeah i knew, i did a year of earch science but i knew it it cm :P

**curls up in corner and sleeps** ;n;
I can't get this stupid javascript iframe thing to work. >.< my teacher gave us the code to copy/paste so we wouldn't have to understand how the iframe thing works, just the stuff we put in it. but. I can't get it to work because I don't understand it. for some reason if I don't know what a bit of code does, it never wants to work for me. even if it works in some other spot someone else wrote.
I tried to format my stuff as close to the example as possible so I wouldn't have to rewrite too much code. I'm scared of editing something that it needs in order to work. but there's something up and it just won't start my quiz. :c
