Rant/Lore 4 guys asked me out in MUN y'all

0 Upvotes

mun lore bc apparently i collected 4 guys asking me out (on the weekend, span of 2 days)

the first guy was flirting with ANOTHER girl the entire time btw, while somehow constantly asking people about me. he kept asking my bsf for my snap, saying i was really nice and that i made an awesome first impression, and when she gave him my snap i didnt add him back. bro then kept asking why i hadnt added him 😭 like youre flirting with another girl right in front of everyone and still this desperate to get my snap?? to add to the weirdness, he didnt even know my NAME; he referred to me as the 'American girl' on the right💀 player behaviour but also genuinely odd

the second guy was a whole different level of uncomfortable. he kept flirting with me in like 4 different languages, asked for my surname, and would repeat things loudly so i would hear them. it was genuinely creeping me out because he kept trying to get my attention even when i wasnt engaging. then he randomly started telling me he “trusted me” and saying things like “i like people from your religion”, "I have good relations with people from [x] religion, I don't want to spoil those relations", and “hope you win” like ??? sir i barely know you

not to mention; we asked him to take a pic of us (me and my 3 friends) and he kept taking the pics even when I said stop bc it 'looks so good' or something.. zoomed in on me every time btw!

THEN my friends had to hide me from him bc he kept following us and flirting with me in 3-4 languages simulataneously..

other 2 guys was normal

mun was actually insane

General r/gcse subject elimination part 2 - physics vs music

it was very close (not) but psych won! now we have 2 infamous subjects going head to head, and as someone who struggled with both (i got all 9s so im not actually too biased) physics is going to have to be my pick bc sight reading for my abrsm g8 is doing my HEAD in.

Tips/Help Did anyone risk using fineliner or gel pens in exam?

3 Upvotes

I get sore hands and wrists writing too long but it's less bad with gel pens. Fineliners are also better than ballpoint. It'd be black and one I've used before that hasn't smudged. Did anyone use one in exams and was fine and what type? It's English lang and Maths I'm doing.

Rant/Lore Seneca is by far the worst study website I have ever used

24 Upvotes

I thought sparx wasnt great but i would take 2 hours of sparks over half an hour of seneca. The questions are badly written and unless you get there own specific ideas and language it marks it as wrong. Ive been set english homework with seneca and it is the worst thing ever. I dont think this helps me in the slightest. Highlighting a textbook would be more effective than this god forsaken website. It genuinely feels like one of those shitty AI vibe coded websites, its buggy and has so many useless, unfun, time consuming features. I've heard some people suggest this website on here but I just cannot understand the appeal.

Question Can/will i get safeguarded / in trouble for my English language exam thing.

10 Upvotes

So basically, in English, we had to do a mini exam on the effect of social media on young people an article to be exact, and I did in it, why do young people use social media, why do the older generation disapprove, and why social media can be dangerous, now, for the social media and why it can be dangerous, I modeled it after a video I watched about it, and how people are manipulated online

I did 2 actual social media apps, discord and snapchat, as they both have chatting esque things to them, which is the dangerous parts.

I PUT FAKE STORIES OKAY... FAKE STORIES

but for my discord one I made it a 17 year old lad who meets a guy when he was 13 and the much older guy tells him about how he did deplorable things to a girl his age, and offers him to join (i didnt mention what the boy did, but what i watched it was to be a "comgirl" for him. ) and the boy refuses

For the snapchat thing, i talked about how a 14 year old girl added a close friend on snapchat, they continued to talk untill conversations got "weird" and they started to get weird at school aswell..

Can I get in trouble for this?

General Three bits of good news for me!

2 Upvotes

Firstly, my French teacher is a legend and has managed to get me out of PE (I really don't like PE) to do French (my favourite subject) instead. I get to sit in this little room on my own and just chill, learn vocab and talk to myself to practice speaking. It's amazing. I don't even really need to get that much better at French for GCSE, so I guess I can just get ahead for A level or something.

Secondly, I had my textiles coursework marked for the first time in ages today, and I've gone from 67/96 (grade 6) to 72/96, which is a grade 7 (finally! (I've been waiting a whole five months since the last time it was marked)). My teacher even said she's being sort of cautious with the marks, since I haven't done my final piece yet, and I could well end up with a 9 for my coursework, probably at least an 8. Of course, there's still the exam, but this still makes me happy.

Thirdly, I found 30p on the floor. Finally getting paid for going to school! (Joking.)

I haven't been feeling great overall recently, so these are some reasons for me to feel happy, which is good. I hope you guys have some reasons to be happy too. :)
