No idea. In Years 7 and 8 we do 6 technologies, which are wood, food, graphics, art, textiles and then you repeat one of them. In Year 9 we choose to do 2. I'm doing Food (we're either given specific recipes to cook or given a rough outline such as "based around vegetables") and Product Design (you design products and then make models of them).
What do you do? That is if it's anything like it is here.

No then it's a general class teaching us how to cook, sow, babysitting, assertiveness (still not very good, if I get in a fight, it's more rash fighting or arguing) first aid, and taking care of a baby. It's general family and consumer sciences, and I didn't like the class or the teacher.

Really? We're not taught first aid at all at school, all the stuff I know comes from lifesaving. I probably need to know how to cope with conflict, it's never major but I'm rubbih at dealing with it.

I am no good with conflicts either, angered too fast.

Little things annoy but I don't say anything, so gradually things build up and then something really small and petty makes me lose it completely. It's really not ood, but I'm getting better.
Also I worry a lot. I worry so much it's actually stupid.

yeah, I worry a lot too, and I am very concerned about the future, maybe it's just how my family is, and how my background sets it for me. Yeah, it's pretty stupid.

I worry about little things really, mostly because I'm not that confident at meeting new people.
I AM ANNOYED. I have at least 3 SATs exams on my birthday!
ALSO I AM SLIGHTLY CONCERNED. My school variety show (which I think I'm in with the school jazz band) is on the 11, 12 and 13 of July and my drama groups performances are on the 14 and 15!!! I'm going to be alseep on my feet on the monday afterwards!

I am just worried, because I just wanna do everything. that's frustration, and my high rising, and quick temper, which, my major down side. I get angry a lot, so yeah. arrgh.
Oh, good luck, hope you do well.
I have a coach's meeting at my future high school on June 11th which has me rather nervous. I am concerned and worried, cause I am being on the surf team at my high school. Weeeee!

That stinks about your birthday starbright. Currently...I have the 8th grade picnic on my birthday (June 11th). But what's so tempting is that the new Finding Nemo ride is supposed to open on that day. Mom said I could skip since it's my birthday and go, but first I would need someone willing to skip with me (probably my brother since you have a meeting Rach), second I always feel a bit guilty missing school to have fun, and third I would miss alot of fun at the picnic. What's a birthday girl to do? But that's a while (sure a little while) away.
But I do feel for you starbright. Honestly. I've had bad stuff happen on my birthday too (I can't think of a example at the moment). But a great thing about that is that after the exams are over, it may be more fun.

Oh, yeah, I am sorry, I can't do it, and this meeting is important, if I don't go, no surfing team!
Oh, got a fever on my birthday once 103 or something like that. Oh, yeah, high school transfer year, and my parents have highb expectantcies, so I really have to do some memorizing, and especially math (groans) Hate math!

thanks so much, I need it. I can feel the unwelcoming already. I don't know they are not too much excited about me being on it. Probably just freaking out because I am blind.

I just think it's stupid, how they are freaking like said before, but no matter what I will fight my way through.
