Getting IGCSE Results

Just wanted to share my good news with every one: after all the hard work of the past year and having the beloved Xbox 360 taken away for the whole of exams month, I got my IGSCE results today.

I woke up this morning to the sound of my mobile ringing. It was my friend who was already at school and taking his exam results. I said "Hello, where are you?", to be replied with a screaming voice yelling "MABROOK! YOU GOT STRAIGHT A STARS!", then he hanged up.

My heart almost stopped so I went and had breakfast and called him again. My friend is an example of the boy who cried wolf, so I wasn't really sure he was true. He told me I got six A stars - the A* is an equivalent of 98% when turned to Tawjihi.

I told my dad, who started literally skipping around the room. Then he looked at me and said "Why aren't you dressed, we need to go to school and get your certificate!". A few hours later, and I'm back here at home getting ready to go and celebrate somewhere with my friends.

Tomorrow's The Last One

My last exam is tomorrow, and after I finish the exam I will be free for two months - summer holiday.

I have quite alot in mind for the summer, what to do and what not to do. Where to go as well.
Lots of DVD watching, every single day, 24 hours. Ok, something close to that.

On the 13th, my family and I are off to 3omrah. I'm sure I'll find a wireless link there, so I'll keep you posted. I'll be back on the 22nd, and more things I need to find to do. Maybe campfires, or more DVDs, or some biking?

On the 5th of July I'll be getting the holy XBox 360, as written and signed on paper and blogged about as well in an earlier post. I might as well spend the rest of my summer playing on the 360, but instead I have some things to do as well.

All throughout the month of July I'll be taking part in some gym, with some friends of mine - body building of course. Should be fun. And as part of the agreement of the 360 I must go to a quran club as well. 3 times a week.

So that means a busy summer for me. And a fun one, hopefully.

What do you have in mind this summer?
