I took Spanish classes in Spain, the entire class being conducted in Spanish
this caused some difficulty, but there was one Finnish girl that just couldn't fucking deal with that
when anyone asked her a question she'd say, in English, "oh, I don't know, shit, lemme think, um, ok, uh, he dicho, um," entirely breaking the flow of the class. She would also ask questions in English, try to engage with us in English, and so on.
one day the teacher asked her, in Spanish, "What is the most thing you've ever done?"
and the girl thought for a moment
everyone watched her
she thought longer, biting her lower lip
the teacher held her breath
and the girl said, "Explosion."
tbh i'm not sure i would know how to answer that question either
let me suckle that my tongue may taste yr moisture and my brow be sheltered in the slender hollow of yr neck

language classes are always the worst for that kind of thing, anyone who is drastically above or below the classroom's average learning curve really fucks it up for all the other students

Italian class last night:
Teacher: Brian, hai paura di che? (what are you afraid of?)
Brian: Um . . . ho paura di . . . person in my closet."

As of late I've just given up trying to understand young people.
Not just on here, and not just my close friends, but young people in general.
I don't know how, but there is a HUGE disconnect between how I was brought up, and the general expectations I knew, and what is currently the norm.
I've just stopped trying to understand. It seems that people are perfectly happy to remain under their parents control far far longer then those I grew up around.
Yeah, I like my parents and living with them is not a problem for me. But of course I am not you and my experiences have probably been vastly different from yours.
I might be dropping out of university. I am very anxious about this

Got a 50% on my poly sci midterm. Which is bullshit, I know I deserved more than that. I might just fail all of my classes this semester, which sucks because I'm on a really light schedule and not working.
I graduated from UCSD this year, and am in the process of applying to several graduate schools for a master's in accounting.
I'm told USC is in the middle of a really horrible neighborhood, is this true?
wait, another UCSD kid from these forums? who was in my year? that I never knew about?
maaaan.
What college were you? (I'm in Sixth)
but yes, USC is in a kinda ghetto area
you know what i'm saying? kinda urban?
black people. there are black people around.
I was Warren, sup fellow triton.
oh god i couldn't keep a straight face with that last line. as great as the professors were i just felt so goddamn detached and isolated socially from everything during my time there. my schedule eventually boiled down to:
1. attend class
2. attend discussion section if warranted
3. do homework
4. play wow
5. sleep
6. goto 1
edit: so as i understand it USC is a no-go thanks to being surrounded by prole filth? that sucks, was looking forward to going back to socal.
hmmm, what about Vanderbilt?

I know, right? My entire junior year was that except with DotA instead of WoW
It's gotten better, though! Now I have weird friends, it's great. Except for the part where I'm still in school the year after I should have graduated
goddamn why do I always wait until now to start my math problem sets that are due wednesday ((
every single fucking week I procrastinate and procrastinate because oh it's math homework how hard can it be
and then I start it and fuck it isn't easy and then I work on it until two in the morning and cry myself to sleep and then turn it in without finishing it in the morning and I get a B on it
Quid vero? nuper, cum morte superioris uxoris novis nuptiis locum vacuefecisses, nonne etiam alio incredibili scelere hoc scelus cumulavisti? quod ego praetermitto et facile patior sileri, ne in hac civitate tanti facinoris immanitas aut exstitisse aut non vindicata esse videatur. Praetermitto ruinas fortunarum tuarum quas omnes proximis Idibus tibi impendere senties.

Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo,
Aureli pathice et cinaede Furi,
Qui me ex uersiculis meis putastis,
Quod sunt molliculi, parum pudicum.
Nam castum esse decet pium poetam
Ipsum, uersiculos nihil necesse est,
Qui tum denique habent salem ac leporem,
Si sunt molliculi ac parum pudici
Et quod pruriat incitare possunt,
Non dico pueris, sed his pilosis,
Qui duros nequeunt mouere lumbos.
Vos quod milia multa basiorum
Legistis, male me marem putatis?
Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo.
--Catullus 16

"Whenever I enter a room I have to check the closet to make sure no one is hiding in there, ready to jump out and attack me."
mine was "once you're not a full time student you are paying rent if you still live here"
which is more than fair, really
I however am not and I really need to fix that
