I'm probably being dramatic. Maybe I should hit up a frat party one of these days.

Don't get roofied!

Does that happen often?

Idk I don't go to frat parties they don't exist at my school. We only have this thing called the Bro Farm and from what i rather it's quite like a frat house, and people get roofied all the time there.

So I imagine it translates? Maybe not.

That can't be good.

Hello there, Burk.

I don't think I am scared so much of being roofied as I am with the inevitability that I will soon reach an internal impasse on my future if I can't figure out what the hell I want to do with it. So far I have thought of some possibilities:

1. Finish undergrad, Join the Army
2. Finish GE's, Take a year off, Travel
3. Get bachelors in something, Go to law school

I think the appropriate response here is to just panic. Although your first and last options have the next few years planned out, and potentially you could travel after you finish your undergrad.

I thought you wanted to do...like robotic engineering?

Maybe it's Tatsu that is like 15-ish. I'm really bad with this stuff.

Right, right... Ace is in the army, and goes out drinking, so he'd have to be older. Well, I don't know... he's a fucking Viking so they may do all of that from infancy. Just slap a horned helmet on them, give them an axe and a big mug of whatever they drink.

back to school today.... Sitting on the floor... Waiting for the class to start...

I remember when I first started college.

I soon learned that worrying about everything doesn't do shit.

Just relax, study often (don't cram, because it NEVER works), and remember...
The Professor lies.
They all lie.
Even the 'nice' ones lie.

Books?
Half the time you don't need all of them.
Never buy digital.
Always try and buy online.
A used book is just as good as a new one.

Duh, I've practically never prepared for exam.
I just go and do it. If you can't learn the stuff during class there is no point in cramming it. You ought to study it xD

I carry all the books I have with me but I use backbag so carrying extra 5-10kg doesn't effect me at all.

FTFY

I have passed courses I was about to fail thanks to cramming. Not I strategy I'd recommend because it almost always fail but let's just say if you did fuck up this semester and not study diligently, cramming it is definitely a better idea than just failing without trying.

I just hate my class..
So loud... Why can't they just shut the fuck up and listen the teach.

I managed to get good marks with no hard work or study (Heck, I never turned up for like 2-3 months before the exams). My strategy was make stuff up and bullshit. This is what I did in languages, for the technical subjects, (which made up pretty much all of my overall marks) I just figured them out when I got there. Although, due to this strategy, I failed French... They don't like it in higher level French when you make your own words up, even when they do sound like they could be French.

As for bullshitting, I never read my English novels, plays, or watched the film. Sure, I forfeit all the knowledge of medium marks. But I keep all my quality of writing marks and conveying of ideas. So I got a B in the end. :3

TL;DR: Do not listen to, nor try what I did.

I would pay to see someone try to get away with it in my quantum/physical chem class

Unless we're talking mental age (

), yes.

^ yea... "age" is irrelevant.
I'm physically 19. I look like I'm 30 (by the ppl at bar, and some other IRL ppl.)
Mental age IRL 30
mental age online 6
and every other day my age isn't comprehensible.

I've always just studied lightly for all of my exams and I've always seemed to be fine. Maybe I retain information better than others, because it's not hard for me at all.

Although for the life of me I can never remember people's names. That's something I can never understand.

Tatsujin · « **Reply #7798 on:** October 21, 2013, 09:52:51 AM »

I'm older than you by five years, Tiff.

Aside from that.. Does the US government have something similar to the welfare government in Japan? I probably worded it wrong...

Speaking of which, here is a video of a 3 year old Viking worker.
