To Japstudent12- Yeah the weather can be cold sometimes, I think it just depends on where you live in Canada though they all get their share of snow except for Vancouver they get rain. So unfair! (I love the rain.) Lol. It must be really nice to have warm weather all year round. Ahh the sun! It’s snowing right now and my plans to go out and play tennis with my friend are ruined. All the people I know say they were worried about the cold weather, I can’t remember if I was worried, though I was very happy to see snow for the first time lol. Everyone got use to it and you will too if you decide to come to a Canadian School, and if deicide to go a US school come to Canada for a visit. I agree with you, getting A’s and B’s was so much easier, now I actually have to try to get 85+ % in history (my favourite). I think my easiest class this semester is Career and life management [CALM] and Phy. ED though I’m not good at sports my teacher marks mostly on effort so it is easy to get high marks. In CALM we barely get any homework and when we do, it doesn’t take long to complete it. Its good that the extra year wont hurt your chances, for Canadian schools and I hope it doesn’t for US schools. How long have you been taking French?

To Lynda – yes, no better way to learn stress management than IB.

To wolfstarslasher- a few of my friends joined IB than quit at the beginning of this semester, and they seem happier but it just depends on the person.

To cowgirlatheart- yes I’m guilty of that. I like the program but complain way too much sometimes, mostly when I’m stressed and think it’s the end of the world. Wow your taking history in French, I’m envious my French is terrible.
