I've left mandatory schooling, and I am now in sixth form, in my second year. In case the English education system is confusing, and it can be, here's a brief rundown!:

- Nursery (2-3)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Primary school (4-11)
- Secondary school (11-16)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Sixth Form (16-18/19)
- College (16-19)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
University and whatnot

Only Primary and Secondary school are "mandatory". After that, sixth form is free, but optional. I'm studying Sociology, Biology, Forensic Science and English Literature. During my final year, I'll probably take one year of Government and Politics, with the second year of my Biology.

Well, the UK are always nonchalant about Eurovision; it's more political voting than actually voting for the talent. Normally, the UK choose sort of what you'd call "second-tier" singers, who aren't exactly a Jessie J or a Leona Lewis. No wonder we always come near the bottom.

Other countries, I guess, take it abit more seriously. I always buy the albums regardless!

No no, they came from that awful programme known as "X Factor". Eurovision is a competition run once every May where countries from Europe send in their "representative" act, who sings, and then countries vote for their best act. Etc etc. Google it, they'd probably give a better explanation

I love string music! It's really soulful and nice. Music like that makes me smile, and I hum to it all the time!

As an aside, I really like Eurovision for some strange reason.

Call me strange, but I really like sad songs, I mean, songs like the link really vibrate with me! Helps me doze off to sleep anyway.

Oh - OH!!! Sorry, just that when someone says Flo I just assume the rapper.

Now were talking! Um..."Say My Name" is great, as is "Blinding", "Never Let Me Go", "Rabbit heart", "Between Two Lungs", "I'm Not Calling You A Liar".

I prefer her first album to her second. You?

Who's Flo? If by Flo you mean Flo Rida, I don't like him.

I remember Clue seeing a clip of it on one of those "50 most..." shows, and for some reason, I remembered it. Strange I know.

I approve of Birdy! I've never actually seen any of those films, or T.V Programmes!

The questions still valid even though it's for something else! I'd love to hear about your interests.
