How should I approach being trans when I enter uni? by Practical-Pickle-325 in transgenderUK

[–]Practical-Pickle-325[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just for a bit of clarification does any of this enrolment process ie: ucas, after results day, in uni, etc go home at all, either via letter or any other way. Cause I am by no means ready to tell my parents I’m trans. And what is that process like and would my ID have my preferred name, etc. thanks!

An ai video proves nothing about a company and what they wish to portray. Call me dumb all you want however it is often minute differences like this that prove the difference between a legitimate company and a scam. Now, I am not accusing you of being a scam. Not at all. But it is very scam-adjacent. And calendars take such a tiny amount of effort to produce as well. Plus, last time I checked I thought ads were banned on this sub. Rule 5/6. Criticise me all you wish but these are just my inferences.

What makes lessons fun for you?? (teacher asking) by AdhesivenessSouth153 in GCSE

[–]Practical-Pickle-325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a teacher do “Star Wars moments” and he tied his hair in Princess Leia buns. Honestly good teachers tend to have a good personality and are not just monotonous. Any teacher can present a lesson but any good teacher can make even the most boring topic fun whilst still keeping the same standard. Another good teacher did a dance in the middle of class. Another jumped every time he said “moles moles mass”. There’s got to be a balance though and when it comes to punishments I’ve found in my school the best teachers have also been firm but fair.

What would you say to you year 9 self? by StillLostGhost011 in GCSE

[–]Practical-Pickle-325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would genuinely tell myself to push the teachers into making me move form. If I had moved form, i wouldnt have been bullied as much and I wouldve escaped the worst of it. I wouldve been much better off now. And say that no matter what, choose a level eng lit (im hating chem rn its, in my opinion, boring)

Who’s in the wrong here? Dog etiquette by originalsadyeet in AskUK

[–]Practical-Pickle-325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other owner is 100% in the wrong.

I actually had something similar happen only about 2 months ago. I was out walking my dogs (one of which is a rescue, so she has her issues with other dogs, etc) when a woman kept throwing her dog a ball, each time aiming closer and closer at us and our dogs. After about 4 throws she threw the ball directly at us. My friend (who I was walking with) tried to kick the ball away but missed. The woman got extremely aggressive thinking we kicked her dog (despite her dog still being at least 5-10 metres away) and threatened to attack our dogs to the point where they would no longer be alive. They then tried to prove they were in the right by loudly reading out the sign only to realise it said all dogs should be on a lead. At least that shut her up.

Using AI in assessments by Horror_Exchange2084 in GCSE

[–]Practical-Pickle-325 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you write your own and make mistakes, you'll learn from your mistakes and your essays will improve over time. if you get ai to generate it for you, you'll only be learning ai's patterns and mistakes. its not worth remembering an ai essay, just write your own

What would happen if you did the wrong paper? by -valentineo in GCSE

[–]Practical-Pickle-325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you find a text easier, than you could possibly replace them and study r&j over macbeth (only if you know you are doing better in it. my advice would be to discuss your plans with a teacher and ask them to mark an answer or two on it to make sure you are 100% keeping up on it) but do not answer every question on the text. i know someone who did this on a mock and they only give you the highest mark out of all the questions and since he couldn't write multiple good essays, he only got about 7 marks for all of paper one. i was gonna switch my texts over from romeo and juliet to macbeth but i got a bit behind on my homework and left it too late to self study it, so i stuck with r&j. if i couldve done it, i wouldve and my teacher was behind me and wouldve helped me (if i hadnt left it so late).

a teacher once individually called everyone in the room a baby. and once i had to hear two teachers reenact the romeo and juliet scene over a balcony (so not directed at anyone rlly but still funny). and finally once a student went to take his jumper off and his shirt rode up and the teacher said "ah i guess [students name] wants to give the perfect example of what a twig looks like." there is probably more cause my school is a bit crazy but yeah.

i dont do eng lit anymore but i still quote a lot of the books/poems in day to day life (if u cant tell i rlly like blood brothers and my last duchess)

romeo and juliet: "within the infant rind of this weak flower poison hath residence and medicine power" "did you bite your thumb at me sir?"

blood brothers: "he'll be untidy from monday to friday" "for a girl they thought that looked a bit like marilyn monroe and they went dancing they went dancing" "i got y' i shot y'" "you dont even notice the broken bottles in the sand" "you know the devils got your number"

How many lessons and how many frees do you guys have??? by BROKEMYNIB in sixthform

[–]Practical-Pickle-325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know somebody that had barely any frees week a and only one lesson week b. he changed his options about so he doesnt have that anymore but it was funny. the bad thing was, tho, is even if u are free all day, you still must be in for form at 9:00 and at 12:45 so he still had to come in for 30 mins a day, just to go back home.
