tooxshort----Oh happy day - for you, with the good results. That's like an early Christmas present.
It's been quite mad these few days. I think Christmas and year-end is a very stressful time. However, I am grateful for all the mince pies. Yum. I've been through 3 boxes.

[vashti]

Umm.. this will sound dumb, but never have I eaten a mince pie. What is it?

And shorty - congrats on the high marks! Don't sell yourself short either. California CCs are the best in the nation, and the undergraduate work you do there is the same that you would do in a University, assuming you had good instructors.

Vashti----Mince pies? It's a little pie (shortcrust pastry) dusted with icing sugar and filled with sickly sweet fruit (usually raisins and nuts). It's a sweet. Not a savoury as the name might suggest.

The best way to boost sugar levels in the middle of the work day :-D

yeah, it could possibly be that i'm sick of forums and don't have the time to check up on them frequently ...

so finals are done with and i think i might have nailed my first 4.0 ever in college (junior college, but hey ... its a start) ...

If I had a choice of learning a language, it would probably be spanish since a lot of signs here are translated in spanish ...

probably wouldnt want to learn arabic since i don't ever plan on headin' to any Arab countries or fremont, CA ...

so what do you want? a cookie? j/k, j/k

how about a cake. we can celebrate and get internet drunk.. like we usually do...

illusional, i join you in that two job stuff. man, having two full-time jobs is crazy.. of course, it's only temporary for me. heck, i don't even have enough reason to justify why i wanted another one.

but one day, you're going to have the woman and the kids you wanted, and then, we can all get internet drunk again.

I`m part asian..
But i think i missed the point..
Merry chistmas

Actually, yeah, i'd like both a cookie and a cake ... i'm more of a 1.0 student ... in fact, my high school GPA was about 1.3 or somethin?

[vashti]

Well, that then is a HUGE improvement. Count me in when getting internet drunk. I am always up for a celebration.

Whatcha doing for Christmas shorty? Do you celebrate?

[tooxshort]

i just finished opening presents with the family ... then had midnight dinner ...

i spent $500 on 2 days for presents ... but it always feels good to just give, u know?

[Chlorine]

tooxshort----That's the spirit! Giving is good.
I've eaten way too much this Christmas. Dinner 2 nights in a row + christmas lunch. I skipped a dinner tonight and ate plain soup at home. Too much of a good thing.

[Illusional]

well well well, learning another language is always a good thing. i think that people who are bilingual are able to think with a different aspect of their brain, meaning that languages usually work in different formats.

shorty, wow 4.0, i've never had a 4.0 in my entire life. i did however magage to get on academic probation in college hahaha.

mis... if you rent out my apartment, i'll throw partying there free of charge, just for you.

and for everyone else, maybe it's just me, but i'm sure there are others out there that are also wondering (like lloyd). however, i always wanted to see a picture of chlor just because she's another that keeps this thread running.

raverboy

[tooxshort]

i second the picture thing ...

just finished Christmas dinner ... now im spent ... i need to conserve energy so that i can party hardy tonight ...

[Chlorine]

Illusional----"i think that people who are bilingual are able to think with a different aspect of their brain, meaning that languages usually work in different formats."

I agree. Got to throw out all the rules and patterns of English. It's like having to unlearn everything you know.

Illus/tooxshort----Picture? Posting my pic would undo your perceived image of me.

i kind of disagree because i'm probably thinking the worst anyhow ... hahaha ... nah, we're all friends in this little thread ... plus ... i know i'm ugly, but i don't give a **** ...

[vashti]

You are NOT ugly, you liar.
