Oh it really is. The country I'm living in is beautiful for its different nature and traditional culture but the people living in it destroy it for the others... 24/7. That's why my wish is to leave it as soon as possible. Come to Cologne, you will be surprised about the people here who are normally nice to everybody  I'm suprised about the difference between our school systems  Haha I love  Germany. I've been several times to your city in the past and yeah you're right, the people are nice and the country itself is so well-organized and beautiful to travel around.  Yep I agree, European school systems can be worth it or can be worth a shit. I'm not communistic, not at all, but I wish the European Union could make the school systems in Europe look more similar to each other. It would safe us  Dutch students from having a hard time studying. |

In Germany it's also crazy but at least not that hard :/ I dont know about other European countries but the Chinese also have to study very much  When where you in Cologne ? And what did you visit (beside our cathedral) ?  |

And what did you visit (beside our cathedral) ? My father tells me often in Germany you have to do all work at home and you get the instructions and stuff at school. Is this true? Our neighbouring country,  Belgium, has a great school system. Here you can choose when you're around 13 what kind of thing you want to study (what you're interested in) and if you don't like it you can easily switch to another course. In  Finland the school systems are great as well I've been told. I think I was so far only once (as I can remember) in Cologne, in 2011. But we were in a neighbourhood and there wasn't that much to see unfortunately.  |

Well, we have to learn many things at home but it isn't that hard normally  For us, it's not that easy, we have to continue some subjects (German, Maths and Sports) till the end of our school time, then we have many other rules and when we have a subject that we don't like, we can stop it but can't join a new subject which is bad imo and you can't take any subjects you like in your final exams ._. |

Oh... sounds better then what we have to do. We can't choose any subjects and we have to do exams in all subjects. We can't let fall any subjects as well. |

However we have to do (and we have to pass these ones if we want to get a certificate): Biology, Economics and History. Last year (and probably the upcoming years as well) this counting test I told you about will be required as well, I just seem to be as lucky as much as I can as it will most probably not be a part of my end result. However, I'll be still required to make this test this year as well. As it would be a prove for our government, I think. |

Free time is also important for teenagers, not just school  |

The Dutch teenagers here are known for "complaining but accepting" everything... it would be ridiculous to start something against this, unfortunately. |
