SpongeBuell's 8 days of hell

Post by SpongeBuell »

Some of you may have noticed I'm not on quite as much as I normally am, since I'm going through what I call my 8 days of hell. Here's the gist of it: imagine one load of classes at one schoool (a light load, at least) Now, imagine almost a full semester of college classes. Then, here's the kicker, do them both at once. Even missing some classes to go to another. The high school classes are all wrapping up with some kind of presentation. The college classes are having some projects to get started. You get the idea. So, I am starting day 4, and am currently right at the peak (they should get easier next week, as the projects wrap up)

Anyway, that's the reason I haven't been posting quite as much, be back soon.

Hey don't worry. You freak out and you'll just screw yourself, keep calm and focused. As for you being here, not a problem. I can handle the Atari forum by myself, and Luc and Bicostp don't seem to be sitting on their duffs.

Hope you Ace your work.

oh man, this kills me...

In my spanish class, we were given a few sheets of pictures, which we would cut into flash cards. 20 cards per sheet, one sheet per day. I could have sworn I heard the teacher say to fully conjugate the verbs in 4 tenses. This gives a grand total of 24 words per card. Each sheet took me about an hour to do. Today, I found out that I just needed to put the infinitive, a whopping 1 word per card. I spent 3 hours of work on something I could have done in 10 minutes! Just had to rant, plus I thought that was a funny story.

Oh yeah we got Red Bull. Along with a hundred other knockoffs. I drank two of those and I was up for two days with 5 minutes of sleep inbetween.

That is what I'm doing, but the semesters don't sync up well. In other words, high school semester 1 ends after college semester 2 begins

Down here redbull is really the knock off V was the orignal drive down here and its still the best one taste wise.

Im glad we don't have the type of college u guys have up there lol

College is highschool here and after that u either get a job or go to university/tafe to get more schooling if needed.

I do think its a shame we don't have dorms and all i think it creates a better social enviroment to growing teens throws them half in the real world so to speak

God i sound so old and im only 22 :cry:
