I'm really kicking myself about not having done it earlier.
I'm so glad I gave up AS French.

i have AS and A2 french this summer. we didnt do the AS exams last year as a lot of people had been failing them in the first year, as there isn't enough time to prepare properly if you do AS straight away.

Jev 02-06-2006 11:19 AM

The leap from GCSE to AS was a big one and I found most of the work too hard to do. Taking it a year early didn't really help.

Josh 02-06-2006 11:22 AM

it is a big leap. fortunately i'd been in a fairly strong class at GCSE and we'd already done some AS standard work.

Jev 02-06-2006 11:24 AM

I got a B. But we didn't do any of the transition work which could of helped somewhat.

Josh 02-06-2006 11:25 AM

i got an A, somehow. supposedly gonna get a B this year. but anyway, i'm going to play on Call of Duty. bye.

Jev 02-06-2006 11:32 AM

Have fun.

Anyone know when Guitar Hero comes out in the UK?

kurrpt 02-06-2006 11:37 AM

not sure man...

when i moved, my pops wouldnt let me take his PS2, so my guitar hero is kinda pointless for the time being

Jev 02-06-2006 11:50 AM

I just found out it's April 7th. So much waiting! The guys in Game told me it'd be out this month.

download a plugin for whichever music player you use on your computer, register, put your details into the plugin, and it records what you listen to on [url]www.last.fm[/url] and generates which bands you listen to most, etc.

Tyler 02-06-2006 12:16 PM

It basically keeps track of what you listen to, it tracks by Artist, Album and Song. I use it more as a database of my taste, mostly because I listen to more artists than I do albums in a week, if that makes sense.

Jev 02-06-2006 12:17 PM

My last.fm don't work :angry:

Would you say you do it for personal demographic comparisons, or is it just fun?


I can tell right now who ive been listening to

Amit 02-06-2006 12:18 PM

[QUOTE=kurrptsenate]Would you say you do it for personal demographic comparisons, or is it just fun?[/quote]

umm the whole point is to keep track of statistics and trends

[QUOTE=kurrptsenate]I can tell right now who ive been listening to[/QUOTE]

umm yeah anyone can do that too

kurrpt 02-06-2006 12:20 PM

whats ur point

Amit 02-06-2006 12:21 PM

funny that's what i wanted to ask you

Tyler 02-06-2006 12:22 PM

You can use it to show off, but I use it to keep track of my artists. I also have a huge artist list on my MySpace, and between the two if my collection on my computer is ever lost I'll know what to get back.

It's really just fun, but sure, you can use it to show off. I've also started using the "recommendation" feature on it.

I had to revert to my old form, Vikingcore was becoming too powerful.

are you saying it was like dragon ball Z, and your power rating was becoming to great, that you thought you would endanger your home land because you have become a greater target that can not be overlooked :eek:
