aw thanks, that was really cute.
seriously though the stress wont end here... this is just the beggining of a large amount of stress coming, first I give it in, they evaluate it and they say wether I can defend or not this semester, not only that, after that then comes the defense, which is a whole hour OF A DEBATE OF QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS about it... so yeah... *freaks out* this is only the beggining... hopefully :(
/me decides that after listening to Yonkey and Say she's going to make a mental note to never go to college. :P
Peace & Luv, Liz
I'm not going either, lol. At least not yet.

Don't worry, those two are the sole responsible for their amount of stress. After all, even I have survived education until my 21st year (not doubling even one year) so if I can do it, surely you must too. :-*

Cheerleader?? me?? YIKES!! :o
You DON'T want to see me in cheerleaders uniform :o :o :o
My idea of cheerleading was sitting at the snackbar and letting out and occasional "YAY" every once in a while ;P
Technically, I haven't doubled a year either. Just doubled a course. :P
It's not the stress that I can't handle, it's all the other crap that causes it, which I hate. :P
poor Say and Yonkey, but dont worry you'll both get through it ;)

Well, you're an accountant, IIRC, so you must have taken some kind of business degree or accounting degree, I would guess?
If I went to college, it would be for either a science, or computers.
With computers, I'd probably run into Yonkey's problem... esoteric math classes, and needing to keep current with classes. Plus a bunch of other weirdnesses I hear my CS major friends complaining about.
If I took a science, I suspect I'd almost certainly have to do a thesis, which I'd probably do terrible at.
Now, see, the problem wouldn't really be the research and writing and experimentation part and everything... I'm decent at that. Every time the teacher has made us write an essay on a given topic, or a choice from a list of topics, I did well.
No, the problem was when the teacher *didn't* give us anything to write about, and told us to just pick whatever topic we wanted. And I always did sucky because I inevitably floundered for ages then finally chose a topic that one, was nothing like what the other kids picked, and two, unfortunately was also completely not what the teacher was going for. :P That's not even factoring in that half the time it ended up being a topic too off-base to even be able to research and essay properly under the assignment guidelines. (sigh) I'm one of those people who detests the question "What do you want to say/do?" because I never can think of anything!
If I was a scientist or a computer person, I'd never be good at anything more than a lab tech type, doing the grunt work for other people. :P Actually, I'm not good at anything other than that in *any* field. I'm just incapable of coming up with something completely creative from just my own thoughts. I mean, if you tell me to do a task, great, I'll try and find the best way to do it. But if you ask me to think of what to do to begin with, I'm just terrible at it.
At least, er, I'm assuming the choice of thesis is entirely up to you. :P
Peace & Luv, Liz
k, well neil doesnt needs a degree cuz he's doing a technical career, Im doing a 5 year career (not tech) so I do need thesis and all that s*** I had to do even social work (wtf annoying) and internship, I did social work with the dean ;P lol he totally lubs me now and I did internship at a pc company from here (software/hardware) and my thesis yes, it was my free will, although you must get it approved or otherwise you cant move foward
Quote from: Jeysie on March 15, 2004, 11:07:10 AMWell, you're an accountant, IIRC, so you must have taken some kind of business degree or accounting degree, I would guess?
Technically speaking, I'm a bookkeeper, but with a degree specialized in Accounting. In Belgium I can't call myself an accountant though, because that title is registered and can only be used by members of an accountant institution. Needless to say I'm not a member. I have a Bachelor degree in business management, bookkeeping-accountancy.

Even
I had to do a sort of thesis at the end of my third Bachelor year, so don't think that's specific for science courses.

I did moderate at every essay I was given, always around 50%. I'm not good at writing essays, especially about a certain topic. When I can write freely, and go from one topic to another, I can type long essays, but not when I have to stick to one topic.

During the first 16/17 years of my life I also didn't know what I wanted to do. When I found out I was good at bookkeeping, I had a vague idea, and at the end of my scholarly career I had two options: government or on my own. I have no commercial talents, so the only feasible option was government and that I am now doing. 8)I

You do realize this is only strengthening my suspicion that I'd never survive college without going mad, right?

Heh. The only things I'm good at are being efficient and organized, and you don't need a degree to be a file clerk, so I guess going to college would be useless anyway. :P :-\
Peace & Luv, Liz
well if you're never going to try it you won't know it for sure do you (going mad and such ; ) ...hahaha, college isn't that bad, and if your intelligent (as you claimed earlier ; ) then there would be no problem at all.
My biggest problem is that I'm not organised at all (well, a bit ; ) ...so if you are, then you would probably preform better then I do ; )
There is no use to ponder about everyting that could go wrong. If you want to, please do it. And if you don't want to go to college, please don't ...hahaha sounds easy, just don't have any regrets later that you didn't went.
Quote from: Jeysie on March 18, 2004, 06:06:40 PMYou do realize this is only strengthening my suspicion that I'd never survive college without going mad, right?

How good are/were you in English class? ;D
hahaha... not really good ; ) ...I'm a bit dyslexic : ( ...my reading en speaking skills are/were pretty good but my grammar and spelling were (and still are) lousy ; )
I did improved though and in the last few years of highschool as well in college I got pretty high grades (mostly because they focussed less on spelling and grammar)

Ah, that explains your error. Anyway, I've always been good at spelling and English grammar just comes to me naturally. Must be because I've been watching BBC TV from when I was still much younger than I am now. Hence I was good at reading and speaking English too (and still am ofcourse, practice makes (keeps in this instance) perfect!). XB)
What dragons?
Quote from: MangoMercury on March 20, 2004, 02:07:59 AMWhat dragons?
Hmm, strange, I normally only paste & copy quotes if I have more than 1 quote in 1 post, but this is just 1 quote, so the post I was referring to must have been moved by a moderator. What I don't get, is why my post hasn't been moved together with it. That, or my post has been moved from another thread into this one, but even that doesn't make any sense. ???
I think Dragonslyr just deleted the post you quoted from. ;D
Quote from: Yonkey on March 20, 2004, 02:12:04 PMI think Dragonslyr just deleted the post you quoted from. ;D
That's a third possibility. (I'm not used to people deleting none-double posts.)
It's the only possibility, because I didn't move it and neither did Say. ;D
Also, I've seen a few people delete their own posts before. It's a little more obvious when you use e-mail notification for threads, because the link takes you to the same lastpost you've already read before. :)
Hmm. That's one difference between this and phpBB... on phpBB boards you can only delete your post if it hasn't been replied to yet. Once it has been replied to, only a moderator or administrator can delete it.
Peace & Luv, Liz

Yeah, I remember seeing board mods that will disallow users from deleting their own posts, polls, etc. Personally, I'd rather give the user the choice to delete whatever they posted.
Btw, does that mean if you double posted on a phpBB somewhere, didn't notice and someone else replies, you cannot delete that second post? :S
Heh, I was actually going to delete copycat's post as soon as I noticed, but I figured this was the off-topic forum so there's no real need to. That, and I found it kinda funny heheh XD
I understand what you mean about the whole "evidence" issue and such. However, I'm pretty sure that if someone posts something obnoxious over here, at least one person will quote it and reply (physical evidence) and at least one person will see it and remember (witness). If someone's really offended, they could click the Report to Moderator link and myself and Say will be notified immediately. If no one sees the post, and/or no one is offended, then I don't see a problem with the user deleting their own post. :)
as anyone ever said anything offensive on this forum b4 ???
Yup! ;D
If you're asking if anyone's been banned before, then no. At least, not since I was made Forum Admin. ;D
Who said something offensive ???, was it me ???
I doubt it, you're still here! XD Anyway, almost everyone in our forums has said something "offensive" before, it's no big deal. Or maybe it was a big deal at the time, but obviously nothing too serious. There's also a difference between having creative differences & different opinions or beliefs, and being extremely rude and purposely obnoxious to people.
Like I said, we've never had anyone in that second category as of yet. If a thread or discussion has turned that way, it usually gets locked or even deleted. For a user to actually get banned, they would have to continuously act in this manner. After a couple warnings, they're out. ::)
It's never happened yet, and I hope it doesn't happen in the future, but you never know what kinds of users we may get in the future. ;D
do you get many offensive reports during a day ???
Nope, I think I just got it once, but it was someone reporting an error with the forum, lol. :P
Well atleast we know that we are not offensive ;D
we are lucky to have such lovely friends around here, truth is that the offensive and nasty ugly part has come not from fans but from other places, this forum is very nice and friendly ( a bit insane though lol, but its all good ), so yes, I've dealt with pretty nasty crap before just not around these forums, and not with anyone around here.
I'm pleasantly surprised at how good-natured this board is. I've read and posted in a number message boards and newsgroups over the years, and almost all of them had at least a little bit of "ugliness". This one has hardly any. ...OK, so the fact that we rarely debate any "controversial" subjects might have a good deal to do with it, but still. ;)
Peace & Luv, Liz
I just discovered that I am now a Silly Adventurer! Oh happy days! This must truly be the greatest rank of them all.

Can some1 tell me what W00t means because I can never figure it out?
W00T is an internet word. Basically, it's a shout of joy, like "Wahoo!". But you can put it on a stick. :P
A stick?....weird....
W00T on a stick! XD
taste good
WOOT on a stick :suffer:
Needs to be Deep-fried.
*takes out deep frier*

LOL, I know the nowadays meaning but where did it first come from? What was the original meaning or phrase? And what website or MMORPG coined it?
The first time I heard of it was Graal online.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woot XD
thanx, I would of never thought of rappers...
I always thought of it as "An expression of joy, coming from the "Woooooo!" often exclaimed by gamers."
Don't ask me why it's on a stick though. ;P
Joy tastes good I guess. :P
Is this why we revived this topic? :P *tastes W00T on a stick* Not bad.
ATTENTION ALL WE HAVE 2 OPTIONS:
1.Spread the phrase "W00T on a stick" everywhere you can! It'll rock the internet!
2.Keep it all to this forum and be selfish.
:stop: You forgot option #3:
Never, ever say the phrase again.
J/K XD
You better be J/K-ing about W00T on a stick. Or i'd shove that stick up........
:-[
Another W00t!
:sweating: :sweating: :sweating:
w00tness! Anyway I say option 2 :P
Me 2! (Ha. ha. ha. I'm SO clever.)
Yes option 2. So we have more woot on a stick for us.
*Tries out a fried woot on a stick*
Tasts good.
whatever... ::)
You know this thread was actualy started to talk about love of ketchup. LOL :D
W00T on a stick reminds me of the rat on a stick requested by the guard troll in KQVII! :P
I'm just glad I'm not the only one who remembered that. :P
I've practically memorized KQVII because it is my favorite. I also liked 4, but the booklet thing necessary for accessing the game disappeared a while back in my game box archives, so I haven't played it more than once. :P
That always puts me off of playing KQIV. XD
You mean the "security measures" at the beginning? :P
Probably. I think there's a website that tells you how to get in.

W00T for ketchup! (When I was a teen I used to put Mcdonalds ketchup on seats and leave the pack open when I left the store.

At least he didn't poke holes in them and put them under those rubber things on toilet seats so that when people sat down on them the ketchup squirted all over the place.
Thanx that's a good one lol...
And thankfully he didn't go and graffiti all over the Macca's toilets. ::) :P
No I didn't do it!
