My online family is steadily getting bigger -- now I have an aunt, sisters, brothers… LoL Man I’ll need a lot of cash to buy everyone a Christmas present LoL
I’m not really “hopeless” when it comes to offline socializing, just that I can’t stand idiocy, mindless chatter, close mindedness, and an unwillingness to actually think. If I find someone like-minded then I am a real chatterbox, a jokester, laud, sarcastic, with witty remarks to go -- I can be a real handful I tell you. But if I all I have are smoking and drinking teenagers around me who don’t know the limit, are insolent, and sometimes can’t even formulate a coherent sentence, now then, I am a loner. I rather be alone then be surrounded by idiots.
And about the booze -- a glass of wine in the right company, is there anything like it? -- I wouldn’t know, but I wouldn’t turn it down if the opportunity came around
Oh you’d like me to massage your back and feet too? LoL Don’t stretch it brother dear. Everything has it’s limits LoL
It’s sounds much… and it probably is, but I try to not think about it that much. I take it in strides -- I know where I’m going and on the path I have many small checkpoints, getting the ECDL degree is one, doing excellent on the school tests is another. Small goals for nearly every week that I concentrate on so it all doesn’t bury me under it. And with each small goal that I complete there’s the feeling of success, and with the feeling of success the motivation to take the next hurdle. You should try the approach.
To tell the truth I didn’t really "learn" German, nor did I "learn" English -- sure the basis yes, but the majority of it all I have learned from TV. At age 9 I could already speak both languages, and that just thanks to the satellite dish my parents bought. The degrees were not hard for me to get since I am in contact in with both languages day-to-day, English through the internet, German through the TV -- though lately I rarely watch TV, no time LoL But I talk with my brother in German or in English -- it’s fun that way
You know at age 16 I won the republican competition in German language, and was invited to Germany for a whole month, all fees paid. Was an amazing experience -- I never could’ve gotten to Germany without that. ---- Now my brother is competing in German language too -- he won first place in our school and will go to the regional competition next... have your fingers crossed for him, ok?
As for teaching, the language degrees + an University diploma gives you the right to teach in elementary school, from grade 1 to 4 -- These degrees are named ECL and like the ECDL are accepted throughout Europe, so since I want to leave my country at one point in the future it is only logical to get degrees that are accepted everywhere, or mostly everywhere
One of the most used phrases of my best friend is “Always plan ahead”. I’m only taking it to heart
Of course I’d tutor you, if I could. I’ve always wanted to visit the UK -- you know, I am crazy about the British/Scottish/Irish accent… is there anything sexier then a man with an accent? -- No need to answer that LoL
But anyway, I’m sure you won’t fail. You have a clever head on your shoulder, you’ll manage just fine brother dear
Hmm if I’m not mistake I am completing my ECDL degree in 3 months time. He first test I did in December -- I started too late in the month and the Holidays came so I couldn’t take tests till the middle of January. Then the teacher I am taking those tests at was lazy and wouldn’t contact me for days and put me on hold every time I called her -shakes head- The nerve of some people… Now I’m taking 2 tests at a time, much faster that way -- and I have 2 weeks to learn everything for the two tests - from only a CD that I got…. A bit fast paced I know… -sigh-
Automatic controlling is a class I have in school. Last week on Monday my class visited a tile factory so we could observe the autoimmunisation of machines there, the PLC controlling and such… that was where my cold got worse LoL
Naw, know nothing much about math coursework… Once math was my favourite subject, but since we started the integrals and derivals(I’m not entirely sure they are called so in English too) I really lost my interest… That reminds me I’ll need to look into the limits -- one of my classmates asked me to tutor him…
Yes I do intend to do excellent on the tests, I am a straight A student -- starting from grade 1 elementary school -- and I don’t intend to mess-up now And I am dedicated because I want to have a better future, to have it easier then my parents are having it now, and so I can help them out.
Well I do hope I will enjoy Uni. but as for now, I’m only expecting it to be a lot of hard work and many sleepless nights. -- Eh, why do I want to go there again? LoL j/k
And even if I find many new friends you can be sue I won’t forget the old ones. Good friends are hard to find, not to mention such nice cyber brothers as yourself
Hehe, I think I have addressed every point of your post.-looks at what she wrote- Boy, did it get long… LoL |
