anybody else still go? i start tomorrow!
kooooooooool
try military training! its like school you go to jail for skipping! i go back tomorow!
kooooooooool
kooooooooool harsh
i would so not do well in the army haha
I was thinking of signing up for classes this semester. I should probably think about that some more in the near future.
I still have a week of break to go. Yay college!
getting info to go back this fall, started the contacting!
can't wait actually :-x
i start on da 12th of Jan. darn it
Think it starts next week. Though I could still join the class two weeks in. if there were any openings. :$
wow, 900ish?! shidd, I think I'll be taking 2 or 3 classes for less than that while being an out of state student :-x. Mean!
I'm taking three 5-credit courses for a little over $1k. though my schedule kinda sucks with 1 class per night mon-fri. Tonight's is the latest, 7-9:20 pm. shore to be some wonderful and exciting people there
aaaaand I'm doing the whole university applying thing, which sucks even worse than driving 1/2 hour to and from class. I don't wanna write a fukken essay about how awesome I am right now... maybe later
Silly people who have to pay for their education.
As for me, I'm kinda out. Going to uni come autumn though, I hope.
and here I thought canada was cheap. texts are also fukken expensive
at least we don't have to write essays and sats. unless those are as easy as provincials.
Heh... I'm taking 16 credit hours for about $12,000.... plus $7000 room and board. ^_^
Thank *** I'm poor and smart. The government's got my back on the bill.
Lucky you the government always gives me rocks......********!!!!! :mad:
Come to Sweden! As long as you can prove that you have enough money to sustain yourself for a year with food and all that, you get free education. Ka-zing~
but then she'd have to live in an even worse country than canada :/
I believe he makes a good point
No, it's a **** good point.
Stockholm is warmer than Winnipeg...maybe I should just do it
i think pay ****, she does not
just live out of your car. even $4000 could get you a pretty rad interior if you spend it right.
anyway, pretty sure it's gonna cost me less than $1000 going full time to the local community college (per year). less if i get all of my books used, which i will. less if i stop buying video games, which i wont.
waaaay cheaper to find a nearby apartment/house and get some roommates. better too
and people are dangerous everywhere. i live in homicide capital of canada
If you room with me, you'll probably wake up to being spanked with a wooden spoon on at least one occasion.
...I don't get along with too many roommates, actually.
[quote=Angelwing;917127]i live in homicide capital of canada
****, you can always say this and I'll just remember how kind and awesome everyone was there, and how non threatening everything felt. Yea, after living in brooklyn and new york city, seems that almost anything can be nice, especially after spending enough time in the area's rough holes :P
we didn't go to the north end :-* but yeah
Nah, they suck at picking up after themselves, and I don't do well with other people's messes lying around in areas I frequent. Sometimes I'm fine with picking stuff up, but it really makes me wonder "why... why can't you just put that wrapper in the trash... why..."
oh ***, THAT bad?!
man, I can understand a messy bed, but trash that can be in a wastebasket would **** me off as well :P
I don't care what's in their rooms, but I can't stand having someone pile up trash and dirty dishes. But it does kinda suck when the dishes I need are in their rooms buried under stuff.
Pretty soon I might be forced to find 3 paying roommates. I only know MAYBE two people who keep things decently clean, and I don't think either of them would be interested in staying here :( we'll see~
70k for a student visa and 1mil for an apartment? lol r u sure
oh wow, lucky. lol canadian government
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. KRONOR STRONG LIKE OX
rrrRRRRAARARARRAHGHGGHARHARHAGHGAHRAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGHHHH
Yeah! You know these things! Although 1,000,000 kr is still some 125,000 dollars.
That sucks. What are you taking in school?
Arts Management/Marketing major, Art History minor
"market" my "arts"
It'd be pretty cool to be heading for a degree in something so specific, with a minor that kinda backs it up. I'm like UHHHH... ENGLISH...?? Probably doesn't help that half of me wants to be living in the forest subsisting on mud and tree bark. Anyways, I'm gonna get this degree while I have massive parental help and then use it to pay off debts and find a place to live while I continue my education in the future.
Uuuummmm... my emphasis is on management of organizations like theatres or art museams. Sorry. =P
i'm paying a whopping $326 per semester, full-time. holy ****.
i start monday
let's swap. i'll live with your dad
School starts in a week for me. I'm just going to close my eyes and pertend its all a bad dream, and that summer lasts forever. Remember when commericals would shovel out that propaganda over how fun it is to learn? When did they give up on that?
Finally had my third class today... Seems like it'll be pretty easy, and if I work it out correctly I should be able to study with some attractive females and totally metal dudes at the SAME TIME. But yeahhhh, still wondering why the only 3 black people in the classroom chose me to be in their group. lonely white boi in a black nay buh hood
that's kinda funny.
like haha funny.
haha
there's barely any blacks here. 99% asians
sounds like heaven.
My school is the whitest place on the planet, which was a big transition for me because I came from an inner city, nearly all black/puerto rican high school.
sounds like hell
my highschool was pretty much all white.
sounds like heaven
100% indians in the north end of the city.
sounds like hell.
I can keep this up all day people.
NIGHT
sigh.
day is all encompassing. night is JUST night.
you sicken me.
you know nothing
you...are a deadman.
... And the night is everything
Hello thread.
I just got out of my first class.
The professor refers to absolutley everything, people, books, chairs, etc. as "little nippers".
Sounds like a faggot.
I woke up to the wondrous sounds of my cats fighting to the death. Now to make some hot chocolate.
Have my first chem lab today. I'll be sure to blow a few things up.
stand my first watch today.
NERVOUS AS HELL LOL
school is for losers. proof of fact: people with a masters degree can't get a job. I dropped out of university and get paid anywhere between 55-70 thousand a year.
owned.
what's your secret dude, what is it
connections. might be surprised what you can get without a college education. always nice to have a degree for security though.
I could be making a ton, too. But then I'd get burnt out way before I should retire. Plus it's not what I want to do with the rest of my life.
plus dr. lisa just sounds cool
I start tomorrow actually.
Thank *** this is my last semester; then I start college.
Which I am seriously not looking forward to.
Peter pan where are you

Job: Canadian BankRobber.
canada doesn't have that much money, we give it all away to the indians
Which explains why he isn't making 6 digits.
no, no they don't do that here. which is good! except for disasters and **** and they get some federal assistance.
maybe certain states wouldn't be such a ****hole if they did.
but then the entire us would be one major ****hole, just like us
Those states balance it off with religion.
gotta get out of here
climbing through all this **** seems like hard work
holy **** it's -47
Are we referring to the US as the greater country? hmm.
holy **** it's 22 here but windy as ****.
no ****. I just remember Lisa mentioning moving into the states and then you-ah **** it.
how do i read idk
I can't read Canadian.
understandable. the canadian language is both more blunt and convoluted than american english.
i want to live in disney world
****, americans **** me off when it comes to winter. Was in North Carolina and it started to snow and the moment a thin layer started sticking to the ground a ****ing siren started blaring and the city was shut down. Suddenly the whole street my dad lived on started panicking and freaking out. Wasn't even a centimeter of snow on the ground.
****.
kinda miss winter.
nothing better than wearing pajama pants, a robe, socks and wrapping yourself in a blanket.
LOL

north carolina?
they don't get any snow anyways, there's your reason
we get more snow than they do, and at least we know how to handle the ****
i even have fun driving in the snow
Just got 5 inches tonight.
that's what she said
hahahaha.
YEAH
haha ****ing americans don't even know the meaning of winter.
except alaska, but they don't count
-50?
Only -37 right now, a beautiful day
Trust me, most of you would be *****ing if you were living in the midwest. Winter: 0 to -30 degrees with occasional blizzards.
Summer: 80 to 100 degrees with occasional tornadoes, and humid as a motha ****a.
If you have a favorite temperature then don't come here.
(Sperling Almanac)
Ottowa:
Extreme High: 95
Extreme Low: -37
Days out of the year over 90F degrees: 4

overnight
blizzards, tornadoes, 100% humidity
you are all pussies
and vamp doesn't live in "ottowa"
nope, been +45 lots of times. +49 I think was the highest that I remember. Used to be waaay hotter years ago.
what the hell, that's gross
you're counting humidity?
nope. +45 and 100% humidity = paradiso
I miss, yet don't miss the cold.
oh ***, I remember looking up to see the time in winnipeg, and it also said the temperature, first day I was there it was 44 and then I was all like fuuuccck
I don't know what cold is, but I'll know what hot is soon enough! Hot with little to no humidity <3
you mean fuuuuuck yes!
hahaha, ottowa. what the ****.
Anyways, Ottawa doesn't get that hot, and it gets way colder than here. Nice city though, used to live there for a long time. Would move back in a heartbeat.
Also, it seems like more and more cities in Canada are getting up into the 40 degree range and getting colder and colder every year. ****ed up.
GLOBAL WARMING
seems like it.
oh canada
WE STAND ON GUARD FOR THEE
did they make you sing it half in english and half in french? or once in english then in french?
English only in Southern Ontario. We have nothing to do with the french part of Canada. Though in school sometimes they'd mix things up and play the french anthem in the morning. Though I went to french-immersion in Ottawa, so I can sing it in french by heart.
yeah, in grade school we did both. idk if that was because i went to a school out in the boonies, though. french towns/communities everywhere.
probably why then. though I live near Toronto. And toronto hates quebec. so yeah
everyone hates quebec. even quebec hates quebec.
i'm going to englishise all these towns
toronto especially though. Rest of canada hates quebec because they're *****es who don't even want to part of canada, but toronto hates them for completely unrelated reasons. Namely, their hockey team is the Canadiens.
Oh. Haha wow. I think I hate them more now.
[quote=Vampiro V. Empire;918905]
Pretty much like here. -30 with wind chill (around -35 F) in the dead of winter and then around 40 with 100% humidity in the peak of summer (110 F)
How long is it hot? And looking at Toronto's almanac results, your summer is short as ****. Humidity is pretty bad, I'll give ya that.
[quote=Angelwing;919006]and vamp doesn't live in "ottowa"
Oh wow, you sure told me, considering I deleted that post for that exact reason.
Let's keep in mind that Ant's a Cali, and he does the most *****ing about the temp.
GO FIST YOURSELF
I'd complain if I were ant. Heat all the time? **** that noise
it was hella hot today. like, 72*F+
****ing disgusting. so glad my parents decided to move out of california after I was born.
think it was up to 78 here. **** sux.
you have a good body for northern weather. should move up to canada.
yeah? you think so? really?! WELL ALRIGHT!
ALL RIGHT! man, we'd be good buds. I can feel it.
can I stay at your place?
nah, p. sure we'd drive each other nuts.
good buds, yet drive each other nuts. hmm
guess I'll have to crash at lisa's! THINK SHE'LL MIND? I'd refuse to pay rent.
There's a big difference between being buds and being roommates. It's like when a couple start dating and then after a few months move in. Suddenly they're at each other throats and can't stand one another.
and nah, lisa won't mind. up here in canada women are still second-class citizens. A man is a mighty figure to a woman and she'd never even dream of talking out turn let alone deny you a place to live.
if she knows what's right for her. heh heh heh heh
My bro moved in with his best friend, now they hate each other.
Petty boys. That's the problem.
They stopped going out, which was the real problem.
anthony can stay at my place if he lets me make him sandwiches all day.
supposed to be -3 on sunday. wooooo!
That's pretty warm this time of year, whoa. specially for the west.
:D
...did i just say hand? i meant hang, bro.
I might be a completely different person if I grew up in california. Might not've even liked games.
too busy playing outside in the fANTastic weather.
more likely boiling in the hot weather and 10 month long summers.
you know, before Halo 2 came out i used to go outside all the time. if i wasn't eating or sleeping, i'd be out skateboarding with my buds.
Pretty much stopped going out after highschool finished. Got a job, went to university, friends did the same, no reason to go out. And by that I mean out outside, like doing stuff in fresh air. Now I pretty much just go out out to play road hockey or shovel or something.
i like to take my cats for walks. or drag them around outside, same dif
My boyfriend takes his cat for walks, actually. I think it's insane. One time a really drunk guy standing outside a bar smoking asked him if it was a squirrel.
it may seem weird yes, but kitty walks sound fun.
[quote=Vampiro V. Empire;919790]Our personalities would clash. Sometimes I can barely stand myself, let alone another person that's loud and stupid.
I'd live with Vamp just for the book.
dude down the street used to take his iguana for a walk. pretty sure a neighbour called the police on him and they told him he couldn't do it anymore.
Wish I could take my cats for a walk. Would be awesome. Every time I try putting a leash on one it just gets incredibly terrified and rips around the house. Pretty funny actually. Though I can walk my rabbit, just won't go on the sidewalk for some reason so I don't bother.
what were the police afraid of?
are you seriously asking that
I love it when my Japanese teachers mess up English sentences in the syllabus.
[quote=2009 Jap Yr 2 Spring Syllabus]
If you have a legitimate reason (extended illness, job interview, etc.) for an absense, you may be executed.
no, I really think your teacher meant that, better watch the **** out dude
man, the police even get sorta unnerved talking to me. he was looking at me like I was seriously ill for driving without my headlights on, with a concerned and unsure look on his face like i was gonna pull a gun on him or something. maybe it's the black BMW.
"oh ****, i just pulled over some schizo beater who can't turn on his lights in a black bmw, oh *** **** **** ****"
bmw is like a car right?
us non rich folks don't know too much
you definitely don't have to be rich to own one.
i seen non rich folks with nice cars
and debts they can't pay, is that wut you mean?
haha nah, you can get an older model for a pretty reasonable price.
i got a 1994 530i for $2200, handles nicely. love it <3
Yeah WHAT that's like what my camry's worth right now. I'd trade it for what you've got any time. Didn't you say something about 40+ mpg?!
I could mostly likely still sell mine for around the price I paid for it (11.5k well, with taxes). <3 my car. Mine probably does 40+ mpg. It's pretty sweet.
police are big babies
