Spirit's Secret Lair

Hey guys, It's been awhile. Uni has been keeping me pretty busy

Work asked me to design an easy to pack lunch that's healthy and tasty that kids could easily take to school. What do you think of the results?

I also helped with building a food pass and outdoor eating area for the club this past weekend.

Yep

What's wrong with that? :?bunny

Spirit · Feb 6, 2018

You're starting University, at 17 :hmm

I'm not sure I just think that's far too young to have gotten a full High School education. Especially for an Asian country. (In reference to the Highly Prioritised Educational culture)

What degree are you studying?

The answer's pretty simple actually.
I'm a 17 year old highschool student who studies at a university. Some universities in the Philippines (or almost all of them. I've talked about my mom about the school systems) have complete school systems. So one university can have elementary, highschool, college, graduates, etc.

In my university school, they have highschool and college, so technically, I am a university student :tem

Ok. So it's a matter of terminologies and structure. So you aren't studying a degree yet? For example, I've completed my High School Education and received my High School Certificate. Now I have entered my Freshman Year and am Studying a Bachelor of Business.

No, not yet
But in my school system, my grade as well as the grade above (11 & 12) have "tracks", and other important subjects.
They're essentially two years of preparing for college and future jobs of students. My course or track is Humanities and Social Science so I have "special" subjects to study, such as Social Science and Introduction to World Religion.

Yup. Sounds about right. In my state we have the VCE (Victorian Certificate of Education) which sounds like your Tracks.

Oh, that's cool.
Is that mean that it's going through the same school system as mine? :hmm

Spirit · Mar 6, 2018

I don't think so. While the two things seem to be equivalent, the systems are still very different.

Wow, that's so cool :hearts

It's rare that I go and take a view at the mountains from the provinces but when I do, they are always pretty.

It must be a very different sort of trip for you. Things being so much closer after all. Australian wilderness really is something special.

I guess it was so different :XD

I live almost my life on the urban side so experiencing them felt unique...

Australia :hearts

I would really love to go there someday, along with other countries, especially in places like that.

Does your school offer scholarships? If not, You colleges will undoubtedly host International Exchanges and Study Trips to Australia and elsewhere.

I know they offer scholarships here... but for different popular universities. But I do know they also offer International Exchanges and Study Trips... just not sure if Australia is one of them.
