It is reasonably clear that there have been a series of terrorist attacks in London. There are obviously casualties, both people that have died and people seriously injured, and our thoughts and prayers of course are with the victims and their families.

It is my intention to leave the G8 within the next couple of hours and go down to London and get a report, face-to-face, with the police, and the emergency services and the Ministers that have been dealing with this, and then to return later this evening.

It is the will of all the leaders at the G8 however that the meeting should continue in my absence, that we should continue to discuss the issues that we were going to discuss, and reach the conclusions which we were going to reach. Each of the countries round that table have some experience of the effects of terrorism and all the leaders, as they will indicate a little bit later, share our complete resolution to defeat this terrorism.

It is particularly barbaric that this has happened on a day when people are meeting to try to help the problems of poverty in Africa, and the long term problems of climate change and the environment. Just as it is reasonably clear that this is a terrorist attack, or a series of terrorist attacks, it is also reasonably clear that it is designed and aimed to coincide with the opening of the G8. There will be time to talk later about this.

It is important however that those engaged in terrorism realise that our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction to innocent people in a desire to impose extremism on the world. Whatever they do, it is our determination that they will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear in this country and in other civilised nations throughout the world."

Ok, lets see...

English, WOOT! BOOYAH! SEVEN!!! HOORAY!!! OH YEAH!!! BOOYAKASHA!!! That made my day. I am more genuinely pleased with this then with my other results, I am really glad I crossed the 6 line into a 7.

Japanese, I PASSED! HAHA! Take that Unno! Damn teacher never taught me anything and I passed! Hooray!

Geography, NICE! All that BS about Chinese Migrant workers paid off!

History, ahh, the circle is now complete! I am very very pleased.

EE, well I do sincerly wish I had done better with my presentation with this, and I do have issues with the way our school handles it, but otherwise, not bad for a rather off the wall topic about Nazi Occultism. Still, could have been freshened up.

Biology, SHIT! I NEARLY FAILED MY IB WITH THAT!!!  Damn, that was lower then my predicted, and I was predicted for a 5, oh damn.  If I had gotten a 5, it would have been a 38, a 6 would have been a 39, and a 7 would have made 40. Gee, this really really really sucks. I am genuinely disappointed by this result.  Still, I got a 4, and thus, my diploma.

Maths, grr... really really really thought I had gotten a 7. This is a real shame. I wish I could do that one again, I could have gotten the 7 I know I could get. Oh well, its not such a bad loss.

TOK, well we did not spend much time on those essays at all, so I have no idea to properly judge whether this was to the best of my abilities or not.

EE/TOK points:	+2
Total points:	37
Results:	Diploma awarded

So ends my IB Journey, with, I do believe its 30,000 yen. No major disappointments except BIO () but otherwise, very glad to get the 7 in eng, and to get that 4 to pass Japanese.

Apparantly, IB results will now be posted at 12:45 GMT.

Thats a full 45 minutes earlier then before.

This is according to the IB Results website.
