guys am i the only one who wants to back in skl LMAOOOO i have mocks i rly want to do which were supposed to be last week but obv got cancelled and idk what’s gna happen to my grades if i dont sit these (im y13 btw) and i miss my friends n my teachers 😢😢😢😢😢 i hope we go back

hi :) sorry for the long post

im sri lankan but i was born abroad and lived there my whole entire life, ive been to sl 4 times in my life and im currently graduating from hs and ive been a little upset recently ab smth lol

my parents never taught me sinhala, i think they have the mindset that ‘u live abroad be posh u don’t need to learn sinhala’ and so ofc i can barely speak it now. as a kid all on my own i learnt to understand sinhala so atleast i have that however i can’t read or write at all and have a shit accent when i try to speak. all my friends can speak 2+ languages and i can barely speak my mother tongue which growing up made me feel very ashamed. id always told my parents ab this but they js laughed it out every single time. ive always tried to learn sinhala but resources online aren’t that good and its js me myself and i learning

now that im graduating hs and going to uni, leaving my parents, which is basically the only sl thing ab me (apart from the passport) im rly scared of not being able to fully understand my roots. i really want to teach my kids sinhala but ofc not rly possible unless i marry a sl (parents would hate this 😭 idk what’s this internal racism) but yeah im a little stuck and upset

i also think this is common icl but alot of my family friends here who r also sl cant speak sinhala, only understands too which is rly upsetting, we dont get to feel truly sl 💔

personally i never had an issue not knowing sinhala bc majority for my family in sl do speak eng, kids go to international skls and some family who aren’t the best at it speak sinhala while i
reply in eng and vice versa so theres no issues since i can understand

im not sure what i can do i js need a little help lol 😅😅 what can i do here. has anyone else been in a similar situation and what have they done? thank you all replies are appreciated!

hii! im going to be a freshman at uni and i js wanted to know if its worth buying? it will be my first mac, im a psych student, use chatgpt and i do play games so idk if it will work out? ive seen people compare the neo to a chromebook and i do own one and its p slow, chatgpt doesn’t run properly on it too. ive seen alot of mixed reviews and i js want to know if its ok for me thank u any help is appreciated!!

has anyone done maths placement test yet?? what is it like

Hi! I’m a senior in skl (not usa) and have committed to doing psych at uni.

I have hopes in doing smth in child psych however now that i put much thought into it into idk if i can go through w it. My parents aren’t the most wealthiest and so paying for my bachelors at uni is alr putting a toll on them and I can’t imagine them needing to pay for the rest of my education.

Ofc I can def do a job in the future after my bachelors to help pay but I can’t pay for all that myself.

I also have second thoughts of being a lawyer and since im doing a psych degree I can’t pursue law where i live since I don’t have a law degree which means I would need to move somewhere like us/Canada to continue if I do decide to go into that which would be costlyyy so im not sure what to do. Loans aren’t an option for my bachelors but im not sure ab for my masters if I move somewhere in the americas? Hoping by then everything over there would be fine. I also have a back up in doing an advertising and pr major but im not sure if i want to do that. Any help would be appreciated!!

Might be a stupid question but if u have a solid degree from a satellite uni would it impact being able to move abroad for work? idk if ive been fed propaganda but it seems like it’s rly hard w a sl passport 😭

hii! do i need to do ielts to apply when i did British curriculum? I couldn’t get a slot bc of what’s going on rn and idk if it will impact my application
