    The subject I studied was more like how the political systems and voting worked, not about the actual news. It was really interesting it gave me some insight into how it worked so I can interpret the news better. 
    That's good though. I guess politics is one subject we do need to know when we leave
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    @Kasa2103 wow my mind is blown. That is very very confusing.

    I had columns to chose mine from which had a few subjects in them that I had to chose from. It was quite limiting as well. 
    Lol. Exactly what everyone was thinking. Thank goodness my school do Options Evening (and it was before lockdown- well it was back in early February.) Managed to speak to some teachers of the GCSE subjects. Almost instantly worked out Spanish was practically calling my name. And that Citizenship was a better idea than Religious Studies (firstly it is more interesting and my grades in Religious Studies are awful.)

    Year 7= Barely getting a level 3
    Year 8= Managed to get a level 6 once but usually only at a level 4.
    Year 9= Barely getting a level 5.

    For Citizenship  (well the other name it has for year 7, 8 and 9 but I won't confuse everyone with it) my grades have been better.

    Year 7= Level 4 (quite good for a year 7 considering I went through about 5 different teachers.)
    Year 8= About a Level 5/Low Level 6.
    Year 9= Been getting Level 7's (top grades for Key Stage 3.)

    Huh. Isn't a Chit chat thread your intention?

    Oh sorry @GreenTea 😳 I thought you just wanted  a general chat thread like?? Maybe you could make some rules so it’s clear to people what we’re allowed to talk about 😊😊 I just thought you wanted a distraction by chatting about anything

    It says General Chit Chat and this is General Chit Chat so what exactly is wrong with it? If the aim of it was to be a distraction thread or film thread then you should have specified that in the title. Many (or at least some) people go by the title rather than what people have commented.

    I get it if the rules are like keep it PG and use trigger warnings if needed by if you are telling people to keep a GENERAL chit chat thread to stuff like films then sorry but that is a little bit bs.
