    I'm moving schools too, and pretty much for the same reason. It's a pity, but for the best in my opinion.

    I don't start back until the 8th!!! :D

    Oh yeah I get you.. I'll probably have to do French outside by myself as well, for matriculation. French was my worse subject for JC (the only C I got :mad: ) so I dropped it for 4th year. I'm going to try to take it back up again though. So I'll be doing 9 as well which is kinda stupid but I'll see how it goes :eek:
