When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb...

I think I may just be going back on 4th. The powers that be may have granted a day off on the 3rd..
Re: Out for the Holdays!
It`s unfair that you are off one day before me and starts one day later.

Re: Out for the Holdays!
ok.. thanks for clearing that one up Craterus, let's hope people understand that I wasn't talking about 2008
So... anyway, I meant the 23rd of December.

Re: Out for the Holdays!
I finish on the 20th. But I don't have any lessons on that day anyway, neither does anybody my college.
I am in 2 hours on the monday and that is that week finished.
Why do they make us come in for one day you ask?
EMA, people will get paid EMA for that week.
I will back in on the 5th of January.
Re: Out for the Holdays!
Ugh, the damned EMA...

Re: Out for the Holdays!
Leaving town on Friday, back by the new year.
That said, I am at university, so it's kind of a break anyway...
Re: Out for the Holdays!
Finishing school on 16th at 2:00pm (usually 3pm, but school lets us go early on days before major holidays). I don't exactly know when i return to that pit of despair though...
P.S. Craterus, the fact you knew (or looked it up) that the next Friday 19th is extremely disconcerting.

Re: Out for the Holdays!
I get off next Wednesday (22nd) until the 2nd. We have a long school year compared to the rest of the area, and apparently a short break compared to everybody here, except Dutch.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

roughly same for me...
Re: Out for the Holdays!
I come back on the 10th, and have three important assessments set for that first weeks back in Mathematics and Chemistry and Classics; Two essays to write for English for the first week back; An important Physics assessment on the second week. On the week beginning the 23rd of January my Preliminary Higher Exams begin -- very important stuff -- with lengthy exams over two weeks...

Re: Out for the Holdays!
Lucky...
Re: Out for the Holdays!
I finish at 12.20pm on friday 16th, we dont have last two lessons which is cool. I just wished I didnt have a maths test tommorrow and like every teacher under the sun thinks the holidays is a chance to give us a big important piece of work (IE. I will have French coursework which makes up like 25% of my GCSE :()
Re: Out for the Holdays!
I'm out Friday. It's charity day, which means I sacrifice one of my vitally important chemistry lessons to do nothing useful. How wonderful.
Re: Out for the Holdays!
I'm freee!
Until January...
Re: Out for the Holdays!
Yesterday, I did half an hour of work and that was just drawing interfaces. Then after my 2 hour lunch we played quizzes from this website http://www.quizardry.com/ for 3 hours.
Today one teacher was off, so for 4 hours we did next to nothing, but it very incredible boring. Then in the afternoon we played another quiz for 2 hours.
Two days of sit-off lessons.
Re: Out for the Holdays!
I get out at 2:16 next Wednesday. I come back on the 3rd of January.

Re: Out for the Holdays!
Out on the 23rd for two weeks, so there's still one week to go. And damn, one hell of a week at that.
