    I managed to whittle it down to 5 pages overflowing 4 lines onto a 6th. That is good, right? All the good grade fairies better be all up on my shit because in my sleepy state I am convinced this is so much late night procrastination gold.

    I spent so much more time trying to shorten this darn thing.

    I couldn't sleep because my mind was racing thinking about all this stuff I have to do, so I got up and started writing. Had a good flow and now I'm stuck again. Sigh...

    I really like Philosophy papers. They are very soothing to write.

    Aww Yeah.

    Philosophy papers were so fun in undergrad. I miss them terribly.

    One of the best classes I ever took was a upper level geography course.

    The professor started out on day one asking that no one bring in laptops to class because it distracted him, and he was sure it probably distracted people in the class. Which I generally agree with. Laptops can be pretty distracting in a lecture hall.

    But there was this dude in the class who argued with the professor for five solid minutes about how unfair and inconsiderate it was to make a rule like that. Then when it was clear the professor wasn't going to budge he made a big scene out of asking everyone for a piece of paper and a pen.

    how will i manage to pass two hours time without the aid of farmville?

    No desire whatsoever to make up this presentation.

    Sell me on it.

    Anyway I got a B on my second geography midterm which I am very pleased with. I got a C on the first midterm and so long as I get at least a B on the final I think I will end up with a good final grade.

    Perth is the best, and we have a bunch of excellent universities to choose from, and heaps of awesome forumers living here, and AusPAX is going to be sweet as hell in 2013. Which you would obviously come to, as getting there would be as simple as hopping in a car with one of the many W.A. people that will be going to it.

    I also hate this geography assignment. I am too stupid to add or use a calculator correctly, I did not ask to be given math. And yet here I am struggling to add things together on my calculator.

    That didn't sound like "Yes Chris you are correct I am coming to study in Australia from 2012." to me...

    Oh I know a girl who spent a year studying over here after moving from Virginia (I think. Somewhere near there). She said it was really easy to chase up the documentation and start the process and since Australia is always eager to have foreign students, quite a few Unis offer scholarships to international students.

    I can ask my friend the details for applying if you're interested @muse among men and @zonugal ?

    The only problem is that you would be living in an environment that is actively trying to kill you.

    Or, at the very least, is inciting spiders to carpet your soft toiletries.
