Grandmother: Peter, what form are in this year? Peter: Grandma, I'm already in the 10-th form! G: Oh really? How the time flies! Why didn't you leave school after the 9-th form? P: Well, grandma, I think that I should graduate from high school and then enter the University. G: But you could as well go to college after the 9-th form and then, after the graduation enter to the University. P: You see, i'm still a schoolboy, in fact just a child. In college, though, one is not a child any more. Teachers in school usually treat you as a kid, and in college, the teachers think you are an adult already. I'll have my whole life to be an adult. I want to stay a kid a bit longer. G: I see! My little baby, would you like some granny's famous panecakes? P: I'd love to. Thanks grandma!
