It had its good times and bad times. Some say they're the best years of your life, but I disagree.

We graduated the same year :)

Prep. The grade before grade 1. 5-6 year olds (unless you're weird like Xanthe #sorrynotsorry)

hmm... I have two different graduation times because the UK system you finish Secondary School at 16 and have 2 years at college and then go to University which is the equivalent of american College, so if you mean School, then that was two years ago, but if it is the american equivalent, as I finished year 13 (College) at 18, I would have graduated maybe 3 months ago now. I start University in 3 weeks. it feels weird that I would have been a little kid when a load of people here would be in the position I'm in now haha.

LOL you really are a perfectionist! I think I got, like...one A for a final grade in year 12. XD So yeah, you're definitely doing well.

Yeah, we're fraternal. I remember talking to the teacher I would have had for psychology this year (but she left, sadly) about this, and that's the only reason I know what fraternal twins means. :3

It's a strength and a weakness at times, but in this case it just makes me look a bit arrogant to some people. Any As are amazing, so you also did really well! And thank you for saying I'm doing well; I jus hope I can keep it up throughout Sixth Form. :D

Yep. I started with Blue at seventeen, which is funny because it was mostly seen as a kid's game so even at seventeen, it was unusual to be playing that game whereas now, it's perfectly normal. Around the time Pokemon Yellow came out, I had gotten sick of Pokemon and wanted nothing to do with it. I remember it being absolutely everywhere and you couldn't go out of the house without running into it whether you liked it or not. I forget what exactly got me back into it (probably Gold version, I loved that game like crazy), but I haven't left it since.

Senior year of high school was the best. Classes were more relaxed, your SATs were done for better or for worse, and your college applications were done and you were basically just wrapping up high school.

I started around that age as well and when i was 16 I didnt play pokemon because I thought it was for kids..lol. Then a year later a friend finally got me to try it out and here we are.

Oh really? I think I learned about twin types in science, actually. When we were learning mitosis and meiosis and how fraternal twins are two separate eggs which get fertilised together (being two entirely different lifeforms) whereas identical twins begin as one egg which splits into two (hence the identical part). :D

Fair enough. I know the feels, even for specific tests or whatever. When you get 97% and you're like "dammit...could have been 100%." xD Lol thank you! I think it was in English. Of course you can! :D Sixth form...is that year 12? I don't know lol.
