Greetings!

Hiya, i'm Helen, i'm 20 and from the uk. About to go to uni after two years out after college - i leave in a few weeks and am stupidly excited about it!
Am a casual gamer, got a lot for the pc (mainly strategy) which i play on and off. Also we've recently got a wii, nobody in the family had bought any new consoles until this year since a very long time ago - we have an n64 and a playstation. Got a DS about a month ago for my birthday which is how i came across this site when i was looking for games. Romulation is by far the best site i've come across and i'm going to try to keep up with the forums. ;D

 

Welcome to RomUlation... What's a Uni?

 

Thanks Uni is short for university, it's what Americans call college - we go to school until 16 then college for 2 years (for A Levels) and after that it's university for a degree.

 

Hmm... So it's like this:

Prep
Elementary
Middle School/High School
College
University

That right?

I used to live in the US, but now I'm living over in the Philippines. I'm going to a university... but university here means: School with Elementary-College

 

Here in the Philippines it goes:

Day care (for those who can afford it)
nursery
Kindergarten
Prep 1 junior Casa (pre school)
Prep 2 Senior Casa (pre school)
Primary School (Grades 1 - 3)
Intermediate School (Grades 4 - 6)
High School (Grades 7 - 10) - most families stop here as higher education costs a lot more
College
Master's Degree
Doctorate

I degressed, Welcome to RomUlation 8)
