Study a lil more so you could say you did enough for two lifetimes. Then if you believe in reincarnation your reincarnated self will be a super genius.

I don't want to be a genius. I just want a normal life, love, peace, friends, warmth.. etc

This video has so much American-trolling potential.

Though that does not include all facts, only the publicly known ones. while most types of work are limited to 40 hours a week (up to 60 hours a week for certain areas) on a full time contract, with an 8 hour work day (except for things like gastronomy, where it's up to 12), there's extreme abuse of people in areas where there are not enough qualified people. This abuse is people with half time (20-30h) contracts have to work up to 70 hours. That's usually in the self employed and the high-paying fields. Anything mid-class and low class is very secure in terms of work times

I don't know a single person whose at the top of their game who doesn't work 70+ hours a week. Be him or her from my country, another place from the EU or on another continent.

A 40 hour work week is sufficient if you want to get by, it's not enough if you intend to get to the top. You have to sacrifice a lot for that.

Did you relate to your relatives in some relevant way, and ofc, did it go relatively way?

Sorry, I'm sure it sucked.

It's easier to warm up than to cool down. A lot easier.

ThePlaneJet · « **Reply #4154 on:** July 16, 2013, 12:32:01 AM »

I enjoy the year but ya it is easier to heat up than to cool down sometimes.

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #4155 on:** July 16, 2013, 12:35:04 AM »

Given freezing isn't a problem, lower temperatures are better, for me at least.

Tornado15550 · « **Reply #4156 on:** July 16, 2013, 02:44:56 AM »

So temperatures in my city are hitting 30 degrees.
And here in Canada, most homes don't have air conditioning, and only have heaters.
Sigh...

Btw, hi! I'm Tornado! Nice to meet y'all!

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #4157 on:** July 16, 2013, 02:48:49 AM »

Hi, Tornado #15550, and welcome!
I'm also Canadian.
