It Suddenly Hit Me

September 2nd, 2009 · 17 Comments · My Life

…As I was obsessively scrubbing away at the enamel on my teeth.

I have already been in high school for two, full years. This means I have just over two terms of education left, and then I can bugger off to Asda. I won’t, but I could.

It doesn’t seem right. Most people probably feel like this just before they start year eleven, I would imagine, but I don’t feel that I have been around long enough to be in a full time job in a years time. To me, it feels like I should have another good couple of years in compulsory education at least; everything has gone so quickly. Primary school seems like ages ago, however (and, to be honest, I am glad; I was pretty much a loner for most of it – you could say I am now, but I’m not), but year eight seems like only a few months ago. Even year seven, and the falling outs that came with it, don’t seem like three to four years ago.

It’s crazy, that’s what it is. I mean, year eleven, for young little Harry? Pfft, he’ll be bullied by the year nines, not vice versa. :P

But thinking about it, I have three years in school if I stay at sixth form, I’m eighteen by now, then add four years for university, and I’m twenty-two, maybe a gap year if I’m lazy, and I am now twenty-three. Time to find a full time job…

    I liked the bit where you used a smiley face. It looked like a friendly smiley face (you said you wanted comments xD) :)

    It does seem as though its gone too quick

    Are you using a mysql datebase for this? How you doing it?

  • 4 Harry // Sep 3, 2009 at 11:31 am

    It is an SQL database, yes, but I don’t know if it is using MySQL.
    Basically, you create a blank database, install WordPress on your server/hosting and direct it to the database. And that’s pretty much it. :P

    I cant, dont have any database slots, im on mega basic hosting :(

  • 6 Joe (the cool cat) // Sep 3, 2009 at 1:09 pm

    But surely you coul make something that uses a CSV text document and puts them down as comments?

  • 7 Harry // Sep 3, 2009 at 1:37 pm

    You don’t even have one database? God, your hosting is shocking. ¬_¬
    Hmm, you might be able to, but it would be really insecure.

    Harry, was there really any need for that homophobic name-editing? :P

  • 9 Harry // Sep 3, 2009 at 3:17 pm

    It wasn’t homophobic?
    And you do realise that I will change Ryan’s email to yours every time, right?

  • 10 Ben // Sep 3, 2009 at 4:19 pm

    Okay, i just don’t see why you get so anal about comments :S

  • 11 Harry // Sep 3, 2009 at 4:20 pm

    Seriously, why don’t you just use your own email address?
    And, fyi, I’m not getting anal.

  • 12 Ben // Sep 3, 2009 at 4:42 pm

    Because it’s so much easier to use Nibloe’s. Then stop seeming it :P

  • 13 Harry // Sep 3, 2009 at 4:43 pm

    How exactly is it easier? =/

    Interesting blog update there harreh, nice one.
    Does seem weird that we’ll be leaving compulsory education after this year.
    Reckon you’ll stick with Stowmarket High Sixth Form?

  • 15 Harry // Sep 7, 2009 at 6:24 pm

    Of course I will. I see no point in leaving; a bus stops outside my house, I know the school, I know the people, it is convenient and (despite Ofsted’s poor report) it’s a sixth form. What more could you want?

  • 16 Fluffbiscuit // Sep 7, 2009 at 6:26 pm

    Exactly.
    I think Laura N said she’d go to Northgate.
    :P

  • 17 Harry // Sep 7, 2009 at 6:30 pm

    Unfortunately a lot of people go to Northgate; it’s so much better, after all. ;)
