Yeah well it is always easier to talk about something you love than something you are forced to talk about. And it's not like you are being evaluated when you are coaching.

3 midterms and a paper? Damn that is a lot. Even if you got the whole week off, it still doesn't give you that much time to study for everything IMO.

Aw that sucks. Do you really need to work at this place though? You seem extra busy this semester so maybe not having that job would make it better?

Hope you feel better

That's true. And yeah 3 midterms and a paper, ugh. I'm really stressed now. So at the start of the year, I thought I had two 2500 words essays to due, but now I have three! I thought for my other class that the research project was a presentation, but it turns out to be another paper.

And yeah I do need to work there, I work for Canada Post so it pays decently and I need the money for bills and gas. Thanks I do feel better now. Enjoy your reading break!

Damn you really have a lot to do this semester. Is it all for your history classes? I hope your exams go well this week

Aw I thought coaching could have been enough money wise. How many more hours are they asking you to do?

Thanks! I've been pretty busy so far finishing up all my homework. Turns out all my teachers gave us extensions on homework so I'm not rushing as much. I finished 2 and I'm 3/4 done with the other 2 so hopefully I can finish them both tomorrow and get the rest of the week to study for my midterms.

Yes all for history..ugh I'm never gonna take three history courses in the same semester again! One exam down, and two more to go..and I still have to write my paper tomorrow!

I don't get paid for coaching, I only get a gas allowance. I'm not sure how many more hours, I'm probably gonna try to start working 3 times a week now.

Extensions! Lucky I wish I had extensions. How many midterms do you have next week?

I'm sure you'll get good grades on all of them!

Oh! I thought you did get paid for coaching. That's why I was asking if you needed your other job. And if I remember well, you've been working for Canada Post for a while now right?

I have one next week because my other teacher pushed back the other one. Which is a good thing because that's the class I get the least. I can't believe we're almost at the last month of school. This semester flew by so quickly. Well my last exams will be on April 25th, but I think the last class is on April 5th so April will be the month of studying

Actually I know for sure I failed one of them. I thought it was gonna be easy so I didn't really study for that one because I was too focused on the other midterms..oh well I'll just have to ace the final.

Yeah this is my fifth year (yikes) working for Canada Post. I need the job because it pays pretty well (government job), to help pay for the bills.

Did your reading break go by very fast? I felt like mine went by so fast. And my last day of class is April 12th! That's so late, ugh! I still have another month and a half left.

And I read a few of the old threads again..I miss everyone.

Is it the kind of class where if you fail the midterm, then the final will count for more? I failed the midterm of one of my math class in my first semester, but I still managed to get an A because the final was super easy.

Right I understand. Government jobs do pay well.

It went by so fast! I can't believe today is the last day. All I did is study and do homework. I thought I would play way more than I did. I actually didn't felt like playing any video games. And at some point I actually wanted to do my homework... which is weird because I never want to do them Our exams starts on the 12th! That's weird because you usually finish before I do.

I do too!

No it's not, but the class is pretty straight forward, funny I say that even though I failed the midterm. I know I will ace the final though!

So I started writing one of my essays, and the topic I chose is the Rwandan Genocide, so at least it is interesting for me so I will somewhat enjoy writing it hopefully. The part I hate most about writing essays is finding sources, ugh it is so annoying!

How did your midterms go?

Well as long as you think you can pass then its ok.

I hate finding sources too. Especially when the teachers says you can't use the web Going to the library to find stuff is just annoying.

My midterms went ok so far. I barely pass in one of my class but I still have one of the highest grades overall so that's not so bad. I did good in my math class but my teacher knows I can do better so he's pushing me I think a lot of people dropped that class because the midterm grades were really bad. Unless they are just not coming anymore and think they can ace the final(final can count for 100%). I did another midterm on wednesday and I have no idea what I'll get. I'm expecting a 7/15 which is not great but I'm doing well on the assignments so that should save me. And I still have one next monday. It's my Probability and Statistics class so I really have to study this weekend because I don't understand a thing.

My graphic card died on me this week. I had to buy another one and that just busted my month allowance. At least I have a good card that will last for a couple of years.

Yeah I had to go to a different University the other day to find sources because our library isn't that big. We can use the web, but it's still annoying to find primary sources.

Wow final worth 100%! The most a final was worth for me was 50%, but that was optional and I did not take the option. One of my finals this term is worth 30% which I'm pretty happy about so it can help boost my mark.

How much is a graphic card? And happy early birthday! Do you feel old yet?

Atleast you have a topic that should be well documented right? I had to do an essay on web addiction and there was like only 2 books about it

My finals are always like 50%-60%. For the math classes, you usually have the option to get a 100% final. Which is nice because they take the better grade.

Did you hear about the strike we are having here? It's insane! We were like 5 in class today Our faculty is not going on strike though but there is a student union vote tomorrow and if it goes through, we'll be on strike for a whole week.

It depends on the type of graphic card you need. The equivalent on my last one was aroun $130. I got a slightly better one though. It cost me $195 for the new one

Thanks! And yes I feel old! I find it hilarious that a bunch of my friends are making ME3 jokes like that's all I'm gonna play all day, but I didn't even receive it yet!

Aw man! I missed this opportunity to write a multi-million-dollar-making book on web addiction! *Le sigh*

I mean that's the story of my life right there!

I'm a Facebook addict, and recovering Farmville-Mafia Wars addict. Oh and don't forget my old idolforums days.

Kinda not really, my topic is homosexuality in the Canadian Military service, and there are tons of secondary sources, but I am still having trouble finding primary sources. Web addiction that topic sounds really interesting!

So the students are going on strike? The BC teachers (elementary and high school) are on strike here. There was no school last Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The teachers were legislated back to work by the government but it's spring break for two weeks now anyway.

Do you have the game now? I heard you can get multiple endings depending on the number of side missions you complete or something?

You should take some of that time off of Facebook and post here more often Patty cakes.

Oh! I thought it was still the Rwandan Genocide one. Still, there should be some sexuality books somewhere that talks about that no? It was a pretty huge topic lately if I remember well.

Yeah pretty much all the university students are on strike. It just sucks. I don't want the tuition price increase but I don't want the strike either Some are even talking that the semester might get extended because of this. I'm really scared I won't get to go on my trip because of that.

I do! I've been playing it like crazy this weekend! Apparently the ending is really bad I'm not spoiling myself so I don't really know what happens but yeah there is 10 different endings or something depending on your choices and how much the galaxy is reading for the attack. It's really good so far. I just hate the fact that the characters of Mass Effect 2 are almost not there. I loved the ME2 team much better than the ME1 team and that's all you get stuck with this time (along with 2 new characters that I am enjoying though). And we don't get a Krogan squad mate. So yeah I've only seen my favorite character so far for like 5 minutes tops and I played at least 15 hours if not more so that's disappointing.

And I finally got an answer from Google... and I'm not a finalist. I was not expecting to be one, but it would have been really nice.

There are tons of books, but like 99% of them are secondary sources. I finally found one secondary source..and ideally I would like another one if I can find one, but if not then whatever.

Sorry for the long reply, so have the students been striking? Yeah I would hate if the semester got extended..it feels so long already, I just want it to be over. Wait, you probably already told me but where are you going again?

Have you beat the game yet? There was a RPG that came out this week, Tales of ??? It's supposed to be a sequel or prequel or something to Tales of Vesperia?

And that sucks. Maybe next year?

Hopefully you'll find one!

Yeah the strike started yesterday. But my faculty voted against the strike so I dunno if this will change anything? I'm just so confuse about the whole thing. I'm going to Australia!

I'm almost done with the game. I'll try to beat it tonight! I have like 2 missions left and that's it. But the last missions are always longer so I dunno. My favorite character survived! Tales of Grace? As far as I know, it's not the sequel of Tales of Vesperia but just another game in the Tales Of series. Kinda like a new Final Fantasy.

I can't next year. The scholarship is only for woman that are entering their last year of undergraduate studies or in graduate studies. So I don't qualify for neither.

Are you taking summer classes this year?

Australia! I totally knew that! When and for how long are you going again?

I am taking summer classes this year. English, biology, and math. It's gonna be a tough semester. How about you? The exam schedule for this semester was released, and I have two exams on April 19th, one is at 8:30 AM and the second one isn't until 7:00 PM! UGH. I know I have time to study in between but I rather get them over with sooner. And then my final two exams are on the 24th and again one is at 8:30 in the morning and the second one is at 3:30 in the afternoon. And summer semester starts May 7th so I almost get two weeks off.

I'm going for a month. I'm leaving on May 10th.

3 classes! And I don't remember but his your summer semester split in two or is it one long semester?
I'm taking 2 classes this summer. Introduction to game development and some philosophy class(I hate my electives ).

Wow 2 days with two exams? And I was complaining about mine I have one on the 12th and 2 on the 25th. Mine only have 2 hours in between though. Our summer semester starts on April 30th. We have no break at all. But my classes are in the second part of the summer so I'm good.

edit: So I just saw your picture with some of your cousins on facebook... do you all have names that start with J?

Yes I remember now! And you also could have chosen a different destination.

We have one long semester, which sucks, I rather it be shorter and condensed that way I get more time off. I finished one of my essays yesterday, which means only two more to go! So when is your summer semester?

In that particular family there are five cousins all starting with J. The two girls in that picture are my cousins and Jordan is my brother.

yup!

Do you still have a lot to do for your other essays? I feel like I have a lot of stuff to do before the end of the semester. And my first exam is on the 12th and it's the class I have the most trouble with. I dunno if I'll have the time to study for it correctly. My summer semester will start on June 21st.

I just had to ask. I thought it was really funny that all your names started with J.

Check this out:

This was the huge student march that happened on the 22nd. The government want to increase the tuition price by $325 (around that) each year for the next 5 years. That's why a lot of students are on strike. I'm against the tuition increase but I hate the strike nonetheless. That huge march was really impressive to see though.
