nightwolf Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Its quite fustrating because if I were a film student I'd be learning quite a vast amount of things revelant to my course, being a games student I'm just going to lessons purely because I'm paying for them.
Retro_Link Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Have I mentioned the fact that my brother's girlfriend is a size 0? I haven't met her yet and I already have misgivings. This is bad. American or British size zero? (I know it sounds silly to ask in a British-centric place but I know some people who have referred to themselves by American dress sizes as its smaller).Hang on, Size 0 is purely an American term isn't it. I thought the UK equivalent was a Size 4.
Raining_again Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Hang on, Size 0 is purely an American term isn't it. I thought the UK equivalent was a Size 4. pretty much.
Eenuh Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Just found out I'll probably be home alone on my birthday. Everyone in my family is going on holiday. Not fun. =( Today was really boring in class. There's only about 3 to 6 people in on Monday so it's super quiet in our classroom. Not very fun to work in. Though right now my sister is trying to help me a bit with my project. Said my story seemed good so far and she gave me the email of a pedagogy person who can help me so yay. Hopefully I can finally get properly started on all this heh.
Dan_Dare Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Today has been good. Hip Hoppin, guest lecturin, letter writing, report blazingly productive bullshittin' aww yeah.
Guest Captain Falcon Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 My day has been meh. I'm guessing the image posting problem you just had adds to to that meh-ness.
Daft Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 It was such a meh image that it not working was meh. It just said 'meh'.
Guest Captain Falcon Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I saw it - it's the first image link on google for "meh".
Dan_Dare Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I know the feeling - there's little more infuriating than lectures who give examples modelled on something like a plane or a car to a room full of civil engineering students, and then gets really patronising when know one knows something specific about engine design. What's worse is when at the end of a semester, our dynamics lecturer turns round and announces to the room (who they think is just mechanical, medical & aerospace engineers), "those Civils got lucky, they don't need to learn all this, as I doubt they design buildings to fall down!" Oh. Cheers. You could have, y'know, told us that at first and we could have spent the time studying something relevant to our degrees... I feel that. I'm doing a lot of news beat journalism for my course and, while it's useful that we are being trained in a wide spectrum of disciplines, it's stuff I hope I never use professionally because I just don't want to be a reporter. On top of that, lecturers who haven't worked in magazines (my field) commonly dodge questions or try and twist them back to news. bah.
Goafer Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 My day just got amazing. One of my photos has been voted into the 2010 Scirocco Register calendar for the second year running (different photos each year obviously). Details in the Photography thread. Due to the touching nature of my entry, they've also decided to give me a free copy of the calendar! Saves me having to buy one. Plus I made another RedBubble sale. Good day.
Daft Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) All my Spotify playlists have some how been deleted. I'm downgrading my day from 'meh' to 'shit'. Can anyone help? Edit: Seems to be almost sorting itself out. If not, I genuinely give up. Edited November 16, 2009 by Daft
Molly Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 @ the whole size 0 thing. I don't know, I was told this by my mother. It's probably an exaggeration, knowing her.
Ashley Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I presume an English person can be size 0. I'm sure Victoria Beckham probably is :p To be fair, I think im a size 0 in America. Aaaaaanyway day was okayish. First lecture was all about Jews. 3 hours of Jews got a bit tiring. Then the student decided to not go to the second lecture. Also been in one of those weird funk mood things all day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Although I'm not at work til 6-8, but that means I leave at 4 and get back at 10.

I wouldn't think victoria beckham is smaller than an american size zero - its not possible wiki says size zero is 22inches @ waist o_O
Fierce_LiNk Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I wouldn't think victoria beckham is smaller than an american size zero - its not possible wiki says size zero is 22inches @ waist o_O Shiiiiiit. Jesus Christ. Quickly, hide the Weight Loss thread from these people! I'mma start a Weight Gain thread for these Skeletorsssss. 22 inches is nothing. In fact, that doesn't even count as a waist! Molly, I fear for your brother's female.
Ashley Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 She is quite skeletal. Oh okay im 26 inch whatever that is. (haha coincidental joint joke high five!)
Molly Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 *Results for that and the other tests pending* I got through! Stage 1 of about 6. But still *semi jumps for joy*
Pookiablo Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I got through! Stage 1 of about 6. But still *semi jumps for joy* Well done, I wish you all the best for the up and coming stages!
Molly Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Well done, I wish you all the best for the up and coming stages! Thanks Pook! I know you didn't ask but I'll tell you anyway, the next stages are... choosing options, full application form/qualifications, ''e-Tray assessment'', assessment centre + interview. Mad really.
Ashley Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Wow that's a lot of stages. What are you applying for? EU President? Actually...I'd vote for you to be EU President. If you can handle ReZ you can handle any socio/economic/political crisis.
Pookiablo Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Thanks Pook!

Ah, quite the obstacle course then! I'm looking at applying for the Civil Service fairly soon and they have a very similar application process (it might even be the same who knows), so I look forward to hearing more about your progress! I've had a rather dull day...just a seminar in the morning on Marxism and then fuddy-duddied about the rest of the day, sleeping and procrastinating. Really need to get my head down and do some work this week!
Fierce_LiNk Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Good luck with your...thing that you're doing, Mollymon. Gotta Catch 'Em All. Ashley, that was an amusing and arousing coincidence. Funny story, when I was younger, I was much much skinnier because I hadn't quite discovered food then. My Mum used to call me Skeletor. Nowadays, I am eating better. But, my brothers ate better than me, so I am still the skinniest. I do not like the cone of shame. Hmm, I do not know whether or not I would trust Molly. She's nice, but how would she handle power? Maybe we should make her moderator and find out. Nay: ADMIN. Right into the deep end.

If you can handle ReZ you can handle any socio/economic/political crisis. Lmao. I love you. This particular one is the civil service fast stream scheme, which actually could lead to a political position. Not that I want to be a politician. I hate politicians. Ah, quite the obstacle course then! I'm looking at applying for the Civil Service fairly soon and they have a very similar application process (it might even be the same who knows), so I look forward to hearing more about your progress! Yes indeed! It's one of a few I'm applying for though, I need to increase my chances of completing such a marathon. Good luck with your...thing that you're doing, Mollymon. Gotta Catch 'Em All.

The POWER would make my delusions of grandeur much less delusional
Ashley Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Trust me, I've been in the deep end of an admin. Its not a pleasant experience.
