Hey everyone!

Wow, I'm so jealous now. Over here our year is just starting. I have a break only on July and then only at the end of the year, around the end of november *sigh*

Well I have a month off for Easter and then in June I get 4 months off

But then I have to do my job in the holidays. I find my job a lot less work than Uni though.

Four months off?! That's just plain cruelty to me!

Our uni-year starts in september, we have a term that lasts until december and then we have exams in january. The second term starts in february and it lasts until may and on june we've got exams all month long, just as in january. Then we're free from july to september

It's raining so bad outside and so windy! It's the second time in less than a month that the day starts being all sunny and ends up in rainy-windy weather, and I am without an umbrella. I'm still cold!

Glad inside our little café there's no cold

I get a month off in December/January too so technically I'm only at Uni for half a year, which is perfectly fine with me.

It's gone really cold here too last week I remember posting abut how unusually hot it was for March and now it's gone back to Winter cold. I'm sitting here in jeans and a cardigan with my blanket wrapped around me.

Here we start the year in February and we have exams the whole month of June. July we're on break, and we're back in August til November, when we had our second batch of exams, then we have December and January off. Which is barely enough time to do nothing

One?! One exam?! How's that possible?! I mean, I have 7 maybe 8 exams per term! And you have one?! If I had the money to go to UK, I would kill you, Jen

Lucky Cris. Here I'm on spring break (everyone gets next Monday off, bless the election ) and then we get at least a four day weekend at Easter.

ETA: Usually for finals we write papers in social science, the more technical programs get final exams.

Jen knows when to say the things to make us go all "WHAT?"

I think I'm at uni three quarters of the year but I really can't complain!

Same here! We were having nice warm weather and somedays I had to wear my jacket in my hand all day but it's all changed now!

I guess the main seasons is what makes the scholar-years change. I love seeing how different all of our years are!

My career doesn't involve as 'practice' as Jen, either. I hardly have to ever hand in anything during the course and the entirety of my grades is normally based on just one exam I do at the end of the term (which usually consists of a couple of essays, normal since it's literature ).

I'm going to go start our new thread! I can't believe we're there already!
