So yeah i didn't really expect myself to blog but for some reason i thought i'd give it a shot.
So yeah uhm my life is currently cool. ill be graduating from middle school this june and will start in high school in august and im really excited for that

As for gaming though it is not that awesome, but not because i dont enjoy games but because i don't really know what to play. Havent played sc2 seriousely in some time and because of that i suddenly find myself questioning what else i should play.

God im a horrible blogger

But yeah some background about my sc2 career if u're interested.

I started in bronze league. i had absolutly no idea on how to play. I lost vs a zerg because of 10 lings and i wondered how i was supposed to kill them. That's how bad i was. But i kept playing and i kept being in bronze and though i would just be forever a bronze. But i proved myself wrong and reached silver in september last year followed by gold in november.

After that it started to go slow. I didn't have any idea on how to improve. i was frustrated and eventually left 1v1 for some time.

after that i just played hardcore call of duty and occesionaly some 4v4 in sc2.

It's my first blog ever so don't expect so much :p

He could have missed the cut off for age range. And I think european schools only have 3 years of high school

Do European schools even have the American system? Here we have 4-11 which is primary school, 11-16 which is secondary school, 16-18 which is sixth form and then uni.

In norway 97 is 10th grade wich is last year of middle school before high school. and to clear other comments up you spend between 3-5 years in high school depending on what you are going to work with.

Do you have any kind of specialized training or education in high school that focuses on a specific field? Or is it still just core knowledge? That is, basic high math, basic physics, basic chemistry, improving writing skill, etc.

I can't imagine graduating from high school at 22 and still having to go through 4 years of uni.
Please PM me with any songs you like that you think I haven't heard before!

It's very similar. Low Elementary school in Sweden is from 7-9, middle elementary is between 10-12, 13-15 is high elementary school, 16-18 is high school.

I was born in 97 and I'm in grade 11... -_-

Personally I'm taking a long hiatus from sc2 and will relearn everything I knew over the summer as a random player.

The United States of Europe have very different school systems depending on the individual states. =P

High school was a lot of fun. College was even better. Grad school sucked ass. But then my job is fun again for the most part. The circle of life. Only thing left is retirement and death. If the circle keeps going in pattern, retirement should be better than my job and death should suck ass. I'm okay with that.

Study and do reasonably well in high school. Enjoy life by being sociable and doing random/stupid high school kid stuff. Be safe with drugs and sex. Just have fun dude. Indulge in your lack of responsibility.

Talk to girls instead of playing too many games dude. That's life advice you would be a fool to ignore.
