[Bikerbettyboop]

Good luck BBooper on the SAT exams! I know you will do just fine because you are bright and intelligent!! Just do the best you can do and don't worry about the rest of it.

[bupadup]

good luck bbooper!! dont worry about it youll do just fine!! Where did you get that coin ive been looking for one!!:D :D :D




GOOD LUCK!!!:D

[Bikerbettyboop]

Yes, I was wondering the same thing!! I'd like a Betty coin too.

[bupadup]

when i went to universal studios, i was looking for one all over the place! But i couldnt find one!:(

[Bikerbettyboop]

Is that where they sell them? Universal?

[10eke]

good luck bbooper!!!

[Bikerbettyboop]

I remember how much I disliked exams when I was in school and college... but what a relief when they were over!!

[bexi3]

Good luck BBooper! You'll do fine I'm sure! I remember how nerve racking they are though. x

[JennyBoop]

Good Luck BBooper, I'm sure you will do just fine.:D

[BBooper]

thank's guys! :) i only have my language (moan) tests left. my friend got me the coin from universal when she was on holiday. she said there was a machine where you put in 1 cent and it stamped the picture in for you.

[Bikerbettyboop]

Well thankfully you just have one test left.

I need to find one of those coin machines too. That sounds so cool to have a Betty Boop lucky coin.

[BBooper]

:D it is!! it's a cute coin too! it's really special to me becuase Ashley, my best friend got it for me and it's BB :)

[JennyBoop]

It's always the gifts from family and friends that seem the most special.:D

[Boopsie-Cola]

[Bikerbettyboop]

I agree it doesn't make you weird...sounds like you are "gifted"???

[Boopsie-Cola]

LOL, gifted?!?!? hmmmm..... no i just get excited doing exams, and am always so excited about getting results! (not that ther good) im just som1 that likes a challenge i guess, ...not gifted! LOL

[BBooper]

i got my maths results back!! i got a high mark!! ;D level 7!!! and i'm supposed to be getting that next year on average..not this year!! :D i'm happy about that!

BBooper

[Bikerbettyboop]

Boopsie... Gifted means that you are a bright and intelligent student!

[BBooper]

lol!! i was choosen for a gifted and talent thing in textiles... :D hehe, im intellegent :P lol!

BBooper

[Boopsie-Cola]

ah well done!!!! i remember getting a level 7 i maths wen i was your age too. my brothers doing his mok sats now and is in the same position as u. i used to revise loads and felt like i had earned the grades i got, but my brother always seems to beat me, just by playing playstation and messing about round exam time, its sooo not fair, lol

[BBooper]

i think some people, like your brother, can't revise and just know thing's.. like it sink's in straight away. i envy those people!!!

BBooper

[Bikerbettyboop]

Boy do I know what you mean about some things coming easier to boys and men... my absolute worst subjects were math and science... give me art and English and drama anyday... I know you would've never guessed right?!

[bupadup]

good job bboper!!!:D :D


ill have to go to universal again to get one!!! thanx for the tip!!:D


:) xxCristyxx:)

[Bikerbettyboop]

I'd like to have one too... it'd have to bring good luck wouldn't it?

[bexi3]

Bikerbetty, those were my best subjects too! Maths and science were just awful for me! I've never been good with numbers. If someone says a number and I have to write it down, alot of the time, I write the numbers back to front, so 136, I would write 163. It's awful! And science......ha! My teacher told my parents that I work in a vicious circle when it comes to science - I don't understand it, so I don't enjoy it, so I don't put the effort in, and because of that, I'm back to not understanding again - and so the circle continues! Put I passed my science GCSE and passed my maths after a 2nd attempt! I had to re-take it whilst I was in college!

English and Drama exams I used to enjoy, because I knew that there was really no right or wrong answer - as long as I could back up my answers with examples, it would be fine. I love long essay questions cos I could just babble - much like I'm doing now! I got an A in both English and Drama! Yay me! :)

So in conclusion......just go into exams with a positive attitude. Don't go in thinking you're going to fail - cos you will if you think like that - like me with my maths! :) :)

[BBooper]

i'va had some of my results back... dun dun duuuunn!!

English reading paper 25/33
English writing paper 26/30
Maths paper's all together 108 - level 6
Science - 170% out of 300% (sounds bad but it's not.. it's still over average!!!) - level 6
Geography 70% out of 100% - B grade at GCSE :D

and thats all i have back :D i'm happy with those though :D

[bexi3]

That's pretty good BBooper! Well done you! x

[BBooper]

:D thank you :D

[Bikerbettyboop]

Wow I'm thoroughly impressed with your scores!! Good for you! BRAVO!!! CHEERIOS MY GOOD LADY!

Does that sound British enough?

Way to go!!!!!

[10eke]

I thought chap was a word for 'guy'...

[Bikerbettyboop]

Oh gosh... I didn't mean to imply chap... dummy me... that's what I get for trying to be creative... I"m going to change it before she reads it....

I edited chap to my good lady... isn't that better?

[livingbooper]

Hooray BBooper! Way to go! I am proud of you!

Women think differently than men, it's a proven fact. Men are better with numbers and statistics, but women are better at abstract and creative thinking. I think we are also very good at basic problem solving...we can think things out and find solutions, men are better with memorizing statistics and data...

So use your strengths and excel in your future endeavors!!!

[bexi3]

Haha Bikerbetty, you're funny! I can honestly say that I've never heard a British person say 'cheerios my good lady!' It's funny how the British are sometimes portrayed as these posh speaking people who say phrases like that! But thankyou for your humour!! hehe xx

ps: cheerio means goodbye!! :P

[JennyBoop]

Good for you BBooper on your exams, you did A great job.:D

[Bikerbettyboop]

Oh brother Bexi... sounds like I really made a big mistake... ah yes, me and my dumb humor...

Well I should just stick to my own language from now on.

I'm very proud that BBooper is doing so well on her exams!!

[bexi3]

Aww - no Bikerbetty I think you should be british more often - it made me laugh!! hehe! xx

[BBooper]

:D thank's guys!!!

i think this statment is very ture BikerBetty!! i know i'm better at the creative side than the numbers!!

[Bikerbettyboop]

Well whatever the case, it appears that you're doing a mighty fine job at school so keep up the good work.

[livingbooper]

Hi BBooper! I share BikerBetty's avitar, but it was I who brought up the difference in the male and female brain.;)

I'm happy that you did well. I also had problems getting into my least favorite subjects, but I made myself focus on them, did my homework, and mostly tried real hard to understand the underlying theories and reasons why things were the way they were, and so was able to keep up my grades. I have a way I tackle things in life that I started in school: If it is difficult and not enjoyable to do, get it done first (in case it never gets done at all) then go on to the more fun issues. It works for me...most of the time (when I don't procrastinate, that is!)

[Bikerbettyboop]

Wow that's great advice and your philosophy on getting the least enjoyable project done first is one I've adhered to as well .. unless of course I'm procratinating too! LOL>>>>>>>>

[livingbooper]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

As a matter of fact, I'm procrastinating right now!
I'm playing in here when I should be paying my bills!!!!!!!!:eek:

LOL!

[JennyBoop]

AAAAHHHH shame, shame on you.;) I'm in A giddy mood today.:D

[BBooper]

lol!! your always in a giddy mood :P thank's for the advice Lizzy!!!! :)

[JennyBoop]

Well that's what friends are for.:D

[BBooper]

:D i'm so glad your my friends :) it sounds silly but i've never been so close to so many adults apart from my family! :) THANK YOU EVERYONE!

BBooper

[livingbooper]

You are welcome BBooper!
And I must say that you have enriched my life too!:D

[bexi3]

It's crazy isnt it, how everyone seems to get on so well in here, despite the age differences and locations. Most people seem to 'get' everyone elses humour without getting offended etc. A lot of people sometimes find that I'm a little too sarcastic and they don't know how to take that. I try and keep it quite mild in here, cos I don't want to offend anyone and alienate myself!! xx

[livingbooper]

Hey, we love ya in here Bexi!
It wouldn't be the same without you!:D

[bexi3]

Hehehe! Thank you Lizzy! That's good to know! Right back atcha! ;) xx

[BBooper]

i don't think this place would be the same without any of the regualrs! i have also noticed that even though new people sign up it seems there is a little group of us who kind stick together! i think it's Bexi, 10eke, Livingbooper, Bikerbettyboop, Boopsie-cola and Jenny at the mo! :D

BBooper

[10eke]

I don't know what I'd do without you guys!

[livingbooper]

I know what you mean. I have to have my Booper fix every day... and see what's happening with my Booper friends!
I wish there was a way we could all get together and meet for a mini Booper convention or party. But we are spread all over the place!!!!

If I ever win the lottery I promise I will make it happen!!!!

OH, BBooper...don't forget Kayla!;)

[JennyBoop]

I really don't know what I would do without this place? It's like an addiction I have to come here everyday to say hello to you all. I am soooooooo glad I came back to this place.:D

Yeah, me too! xxx

[Bikerbettyboop]

I hope you both win the lottery big!!!

[bexi3]

We should do a Boopers lottery syndicate! Haha! xx

[Bikerbettyboop]

My husband Don gave me some Betty Boop lottery tickets for Valentine's Day and none of them were winners... I was disappointed... oh well... guess we can't all be winners.

[BBooper]

cool! bet you kept them though :D

BBooper
xxx

[Bikerbettyboop]

Nope.... It hurt too much to look at them...

[BBooper]

lol!! i suppose you can get more though ;) i'm so jealous.. lol! one reason.. i'm to young to buy lottery tickets and 2 we don't have BB ones here :( bet they are cute :D

BBooper
xxx

[Bikerbettyboop]

The Betty Boop lotto tickets are popular here but I don't buy them very often because the odds are pretty bad.. but I do like to play the Betty Boop slot machines... they are fun and pay better!!

[BBooper]

oh, kool;!! wish we were as mad about Betty here in England as you are in Arizona!! although i like it 'quiet' becuase then i know that any BB items i buy not many people in England will have them!!! :D

BBooper

[Bikerbettyboop]

That's true about the Betty Boop market being less saturated there in Great Britain... does make your collection more valuable.

By the way... how are exams coming along? Are you all finished now?

[BBooper]

not yet.. i'm off school right now becuase it's spring term and then i have 2 weeks back and then my real SAT's *bites finger nails* lol!
