I lived in New York City when I was younger, relocated to New Jersey a few years ago. I still consider myself a city girl though- I'm in there all the time <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Hello,
Mother of Daughter 14 w/cf, cfrd, chronic pancreatitis
We are from Florida
Kate was diagnosed at 1 yr. old, and has been a fighter all her life.
At present we are dealing with Kates unwillingness to cooperate
when it comes to her medications. Besides that she is a wonderful
young lady. She is an artist and writter, and is an honor student
in high school-hopital homebound program with a 3.7 GPA.
Iam new to this forum.

Grade point average.
Oh right. Is that from SAT tests or whatever it is? Sorry, the only knowledge I have about American school-systems comes from the rather unreliable source of early 'Dawson's Creek'. We have SAT's in the UK, but they dont really mean anything except to help sort out league tables of schools. Would SAT's be equivalent to our GCSE's taken at 16yrs or our A-Levels taken at 18yrs?
Hi I am Cindy fron Western Australia. Hi especially to Eileen from New Zealand - We're almost neighbours!! So many Kiwis live in Australia. Your country is reputed to be one of the most beautiful in the world, besides Australia of course! I am hoping to visit NZ in the next couple of years and the Cook Islands - they sound just gorgeous. Any places you can specifically recommend in NZ? My boyfriend has been there and adores it. But we are still better at cricket (a draw because of rain in the 1 day series- Hmmmm...) and rugby, although you mob seem to be rather good at Netball.
Keep up the good work - 52 is great. I'll be there in just over 22years! Nearly 30 - don't know whether to dread getting older or be proud of it !!
I think I'll go the latter.
Merry Christmas! It's 40 degrees celcius here - How's the cold in the northern winter?? I'm off to the beach!

Ahhh okay. SATs are 800 points max in math and 800 points max in verbal, making the highest possible score 1600. SATs are generally taken in junior and / or senior years of high school.
A GPA is your average grades in school. Like As are worth a certain number, and Bs, Cs, etc. At the end of the year or semester, they all them all up together to get a GPA. The system goes from 0 to 4.0, 4.0 being the highest (I'm pretty sure this is how it works). Therefore, a 3.7 GPA is a damn good one. Robynne was just bragging about her daughter's excellent grades. Hehehe. All moms love doing that. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

Woo Hoo!!!! another Aussie here... from Sydney
i am 18, female doing fairly well, finished school last year and looking at uni and travelling Europe this year....
Go the Aussies, we have a top-notch health care system i say. Drugs are greatly subsidised as are medical visits and hospital stays. So they should be! ive never had a problem obtaining drugs becasue the govt. pays for almost all their cost.
Anyways, hope all are doing well
