Oh, yeah, it happens sometimes when it comes to English. :D

Alright, that's better. For a minute, I thought this was West Virginia. ;)

Kalah might be a bit absent now, his interentt stopped working for some reason... he says it can't be related to the fact that I tripped in the cable earlier today, but I do wonder :)

Um...well, my second college semester starts in two days, so I'm just going to state the (somewhat :)) obvious:

If you guys don't see me posting as frequently (or I don't show up some days) on the forums, it's not that I'm dead :tongue:, I'm just occupied with schoolwork.

Believe me when I say that this forum is too special to me for me to stop visiting it and posting on it.

So, I'll see you guys around! :D

Yeah... as if that really counts around here. Man, every time i want to complain about my classes it's always to someone that has way more of them then me... and of course my classmate all complain about how boring it is to spend all that time at school... i should start giving them the same look my friends give me.

I don't know if they're 13, but they sure are a lot. And no, I have not been skipping classes, that's just the way they are.

Let's see here... For each language I've got Grammar, Cultural Studies, Phonetics, Translations and Communication; that's 10 already. Then there's Romanian, Text Analysis, Economics, Info and Finnish. So they're 15 actually. Yup, that's Applied Modern Languages... :)

I'm in the fourth and final year and I have 11-12 subjects. Of course if I went to more lessons I might have passed more at the cost of my mental health...Most are about theories so having 6-8 straight hours can be a real pain to attend :)

Edit:
How many subjects per semester? They are 6 for me.

Very little ....

as for absence, I am back today, maybe tomorrow, and then off again for a week or so .... it's all a bit fluid at the moment, but it's okay, relax and breathe people, even when I'm away I still pop in from time to time

As do I! ;)

How have you been stefan?

I started my second semester yesterday (I love colleges here haha).

The professors give very little work the first two weeks and they tend to not go a lot :devil:.

Today is the last day I'll be here............with all my teeth. :-D On Monday, I'll pull the four wisdom-annoying-go-to-hell teeth out, and I'll be resting until Tuesday.

So, you won't see pandas here meanwhile. Just on Wednesday. :D For those who care, "thank you". For those who don't, "I don't care either. :tongue: But I like you all the same."

Wish me...er...less pain. :S
