Re: So, what's up?
No, I had 2 cybercafes.
Anyway, guys, please explain the American education system to me. What is this about "graduating high school" ?? Is that matric ? or HSC ? And what do they call "college" ? That college is not B.A./B.Com. etc, is it ? |

High School is grades (standards) 9-12. Completion of 12th grade is called the high school graduation. It is just the celebration of finishing this important milestone, and moving on to college/university, and to some extent adulthood. After high school comes college, generally refers to higher education. There are different designations for different higher ed institutions: junior college, college, university. Often times, university refers to a more prestigious institution either because of the programs they offer or their own history. There are private colleges and universities as well as public. Almost all of the colleges require four-year equivalent of education to earn a bachelors degree: BA or BS. Additional two-years or so would earn you a masters (MS). And then a few more years to become a doctor, lawyer, etc. Not all kids finish high school. Not all who finish high school go to college. Not all who start college finish college. I'll leave it at this, but I'm sure this is enough to spark more curiosity... so ask away ![]() p.s. there are also kindergarten graduation/promotions for kids moving on to 1st grade ![]()

Re: So, what's up?
My neighbour was putting out her recycle bins at the same time as I last night.
I happen to see that she has 5 (yes 5!) bins with different address written on them. Those address from down the street. I guess when the wind blew them away at one point, my neighbour simply picked it up and stored it in her garage. She has a bunch of stuff stored in there. handful of green bins (for compost) too along with recycle bins. The normal practise is for us to return to the address. How long can it possible take? 2 mins? These are not cheap...so strange. They have kids living in that house. What do they teach? Finders keepers?! |
