Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

Oh, different education systems.

Okay, primary education (assuming child was born at the start of term) goes from age of 5 to 11.

Secondary education goes from 12 to 16.

Further education goes from 17-18.

So, therefore, as a 14-year-old, you are in secondary education.

Anyway, that's good to know.

Hurrah! With the burst of morale obtained via humorous conversation with a friend, I was able to OBTAIN MY MUSIC DEVICE! I can now go to be without leaving my bed.

A victory, I guess.

Ah, I see. That's kind of like mine, I guess. Rough estimate of our thing:

Elementary: 5-11, grades Kindergarten-5th

Middle: 12-14, grades 6th-8th(some schools add on 9th)

High: 15-18, grades 9th-12th(again, some schools start this at 10th)

Now I feel old again.

Ah, that's a very familiar feeling for me...even though I'm only 19.

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.

Sort of depressing, when you think about it...

Dove's still around, as far as I can tell.

"By the by, what's your avatar from?"

Will Vandom. Young, dumb, and the W in WITCH. She's the leader of the group. Amusingly enough, her power is Heart.

Hope, get off my lawn before I shoot your kneecaps.
