Well, it's not so much an issue of exchange students, because that university has relations with the university I was originally considering. The issue everyone's having is that I'd be living in China, and they can't seem to handle that, since I'd be studying there for 4 years. My dad isn't...

So, I've been worrying about college and how I'm going to pay for it for the majority of my senior year now. I had picked a college in state I would probably go to that offered courses I liked and plenty of majors (since I can't decide. The problem was that I don't have the best grades and had...

The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis! Here is how you matched up against all the levels: Level | Score Purgatory | Very Low Level 1 - Limbo | High Level 2 | Very Low Level 3 | High Level 4 | Low Level 5 | Low Level 6 - The City of Dis | High...

My entire experience in Spanish class has been like this. The vast majority of people who take language classes appear to be the types who are extremely talkative (or who take it because they see it as an easy class). This is made even worse by the fact that all 3 of the Spanish teachers at my...

16 for the moment, turning 17 in a couple of weeks. And, for the most part, hating every second of it. Oh how I long for the day I will leave this place, but I've been told by my uncle that my parents plan to fly out and see me every weekend.:eek:

Wow, this is exactly like my family, right down to the annoying brother.:phear: My dad is by far the most extroverted person I've ever seen. And he's loud on top of it. Whenever he sees someone he knows at the store (which is every time) he has to stop and talk to them for at least half an...

You are a Fox! (your score: 25) Characters: Razvin in the Aspect of Crow trilogy; Elysia in "The Wild's Call" Powers: Stealth, night vision, ability to read and manipulate others' emotions Foxes are clever, perceptive, and shrewd. You're happiest working behind the scenes, pulling strings and...

I've been having the same problem lately. I'm pretty good at math, but the chemistry teacher at our school can't explain anything right. He can't even keep control of the class most of the time. Plus, I can't switch to a different teacher, because he's the only chemistry teacher. None of us get...

Telepathy You're powers are 72% Mental, 50% Emotional, and 28% Physical! I hope you aren't in this super power thing for the attention, cause you've got the least flashy power. But for no flash you got a world of possibilities. You can read minds, control other's minds, and cause complete...

I'm a sophomore currently, and yes, once I first experienced what highschool was like, I was bitterly disappointed. Sure, there are some classes I do enjoy a lot (Math Theory), but for the most part I dread going there every day. :(

You are a Clueless Uke! Having a good time is what you're all about. You're satisfied just to have someone to eat hamburgers and play video games with, and are completely oblivious to other's manipulative behavior. You don't expect much, and that can be a good thing. You're perfect prey for the...

Well, I grew up in (literally) the middle of nowhere. I lived on a farm in Nebraska for a long time until my family moved to a smallish town about a half hour away. So, naturally, we ate several vegetables that we grew. Mainly, we ate corn on the cob. When sweet corn is boiled (I think for about...

My problem is a lot lie Sagewolf's. Actually writing the essay usually isn't the problem, it's settling on an idea that kills me. I'll usually be completely indecisive until our last day or two in the library, then I'll decide and write it fairly quickly. Another problem I sometimes have is that...

I'm downloading Requiem: Bloodymare right now (looks so fun) I also play perfect world (has graphics and character customization virtually the same as Aion, but free)

This reminds me of a book I borrowed from my math theory teacher (which has qualified me as a total geek to my friends :rolleyes:) called The Singularity is Near. It is basically about how human progress is continuing at an exponential rate (always has been) and that, fairly soon (2020 he...

The Shock Joke your humor style: VULGAR | SPONTANEOUS | DARK Your sense of humor is off-the-cuff and kind of gross. Is it is also sinister, cynical, and vaguely threatening to the purer folks of this world. You probably get off on that. You would cut a greasy fart, then blame it on your mom...

I haven't decided yet, but I'm starting to lean either towards pathology or psychology. Though, I'll probably change my mind again pretty quickly.

Ahh, TED talks, how I enjoy them. I'm going to watch 2 in class tomorrow. My Math Theory teacher frequently has us watch these in class, at least when he finds some very interesting ones, or we have nothing better to do. It rocks.:D

I also listen to music that may seem weird. Most of the artists I like, other people haven't even heard of :p. I tend to dress in whatever I like at the time, so my wardrobe is spread across all different styles. If I'm not wearing one of those outfits, I'm in jeans and a t shirt. Although, I...

I've corrected teachers quite a few times, but most of them around here don't mind that. My old history teacher, who is also my swim team coach, openly said on the first day of class "I'm a history teacher, not an english teacher, because I'm really bad at spelling. So I'll probably make a lot...

This made me think: perhaps people who are extroverted either ignore these "inner voices", or they attempt to drown them out with the voices of others? I'm just kind of musing to myself at the moment, but I'd think extroverted people would be more prone to thinking that people who talk to...

I agree with this. I don't ever really hate the person (though I usually avoid these types of people because every time I see them I'm reminded of what they will act like), I just don't like how they can be so condescending and dismissive of others ideas, then turn around and tell you that their...

You are to fulfil each and every request or order I issue, no matter what you are doing or how you feel. And, you must smile and be happy all the time. If I ever hear you complain or show any signs of an emotion other than happiness, you will be punished. If you fail to do these things...

Diagnosis: Schizophrenia Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder (or a group of disorders) marked by severely impaired thinking, emotions, and behaviors. You are typically unable to filter sensory stimuli and may have enhanced perceptions of sounds, colors, and other features of your...

Hmm, well let's see: -stop caring about popular kids, they're a waste of time and energy -don't procrastinate in middle school, it makes the parents angry -try to find out what you want to do with your life so mom doesn't bother you in the future (or tell her something to get her off your...

Ever since I was little I've been considered "unfeminine" and frankly, it makes me smile.:) Not that I don't like having some things that are a little girly, it's just that I don't think girls should have to conform to that. When I was a little kid, I lived on a farm. My parents tried getting...

You are an Inventor Your imagination, self-reliance, openness to new things, and appreciation for utility combine to make you an INVENTOR. You have the confidence to make your visions into reality, and you are willing to consider many alternatives to get that done. The full spectrum of...

I do tend to use qualifiers a lot. My close friends seem to have gotten used to it from being around me so often, but when I'm explaining concepts to someone it confuses them for some reason, probably because I don't sound 100% sure on it. I know that there's never a 100% guarantee on things...

Man, a lot of people like house. None of my friends like it, and I don't understand why. Oh well. House- reasons have been stated by everyone else (brain stealers :phear:) NCIS- It's a good show and is just funny at times. Plus, Ducky and Abby are cool.:cool: The Soup- My dad always watches...

I've been in a rather vengeful/bitter mood most of the time lately, so my music's gonna be like that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu9uxGP5nL0 I like apocalyptica's music, they need to write more of their own songs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmWY28ITGfY I listen to this a lot after...

I was bullied twice in the entirety of my school life so far. Once in elementary school when I was the new kid (the boy was full of himself, is now considered a loser by most of our class), and once in middle school. The strange thing was, I didn't do anything to the girl for her to have any...

Q: Explain gravity. A: Gravity does not exist. Q: Then what causes us to be attracted to the surface of the earth? A: It is our contention that the disk is actually accelerating upwards at a constant rate of 9.8m/s/s, thus producing the phenomenon you refer to as gravity. We call this...

and your inner dragon is a .... Ruby Dragon In the war between good and evil, Ruby Dragons take the side of the noble and good. When it comes to the powers of Chaos vs. those of Law and Order, your inner dragon walks a fine line between Law and Chaos. As far as magical tendancies, Your inner...

In elementary school, the other kids would always call me "encyclopedia" because I aced our vocab and won every spelling contest. They weren't being mean, it was just for a laugh and we all had funny names for each other. We had a kid named Nile who got the worst of the names, but we never meant...

What is your name? Look to your left Where are you from? Nebraska (which is, in fact, in the U.S. and yes we do have plumbing and electricity, contrary to what some of the slightly off New Yorkers think.:rolleyes:) How old are you? I'm 15 and slightly less than a month away from being 16...

True Neutral A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character...

I don't often join in on conversations with my friends unless they direct a question or comment at me. Some of the people I am friends with can handle it when I feel like discussing some random and slightly insane idea, but most of them will just continue to discuss the pointless events of...
