I'm doing fine, how about yourself?

Nice sig you have!

get on msn. D< simm said your reason and we're alll on now so get on. :(

I think I should be creative director at Apple. :)

XD My friend thought that she was really good at ice-skating, but she sucked and fell like.. 10 times. xD;;

Well, the internet is so ingrained into all of our lives now that it's practically a utility. I wouldn't live somewhere with bad water or electricity, and the same goes for the internet. People will need to start viewing it as a utility before the quality of service ever becomes an active concern for ISPs.

It's deleted.

It was so amazing~ I went ice-skating and shopping with my friends. -^u^-

Thank you very muuch~! X3

I don't know what I'd do if I suddenly faced a cap like that. My DSL provider sold my contract to a company with a 5GB/month bandwidth cap last summer, but I was very fortunate to have another ISP in the area. Somehow, I ended up paying less than I was with the previous company for internet that's roughly three times as fast. I can honestly see my future choices of where I live determined partially by what ISPs are available in that area.

I'll check it out the next time I'm at the supermarket. I'm guessing I can find it in the cleanser aisle next to rat poison ;)

Weeeeeell I think we can safely say that the future of broadband in the developed world is pretty bleak for the time being, considering that we're relying ever more on bandwidth-heavy streaming and cloud applications while ISPs (and even entire countries) attempt to replace their unlimited bandwidth with heavily-capped consumption. The people making laws can't operate VCRs much less comprehend the inextricable link between the internet and the future of the world, so enjoy your terrible laws and underfunded education system until you have grandchildren, when their cries for less regulation on nanites, telepathic implants, and gene splicing will go unanswered by our generation XD

I saw the word Vegimite in the below VM. I love that stuff. ;; Haven't had it in years, since we only got in a few times from a friend who lives in Australia. You lucky people and your Vegimite.


& that /tr/ link in your signature.. there was a whole three seconds where I was half expecting it to link to 4Chan. xD; I feel lame, now.

You can't ban it! Every country has a food that defines them. Without Vegimite, you're reduced to, uhh......wallaby meat or something.

Everything is best in Sweden. They are superhumans (or such is the image they like to project XP) As a youngster I misidentified Sweden on a world map in front of a Swedish exchange student. I'll never forget the loathing from her so intense that I felt like dirt, hah.

You had an entire class devoted to long division?

I think we had our first taste of Vegimite in the 80s. It was also our last :cheeky:

The American education system is widely regarded as the worst in the developed world, but I can believe it's not perfect elsewhere. Depending on how many disaffected old people with no stake in their community go to the polls on any given election, schools can suddenly receive less taxpayer funding (or maybe that's just here XP).

At my school, we had a class called Pre-Algebra in year 7, Algebra I in year 8, Geometry in year 9, and Algebra II in year 10 (and all these classes came in later years if you chose an easier math in year 7.) So, I suppose, we're just about on par in that we have to spread Algebra over many years and we're not done with it until year 10 either.

Well, as for Queensland, "smart" can be slang for "hurt", so you never know :p

Japan never gets mentioned outside of WWII, but then again that's more mention than 90% of countries in the world get x_x Although I specialize in American history, world history gets completely shafted in a lot of schools and many kids leave only with a knowledge of the countries that America's gone to war with. I could excitedly talk about, say, Japan's Sengoku era in a classroom for hours on end but, sadly, it's not as relevant to most kids as "we kicked their arse in THE WAR."

What state are you in? I could go on forever about all the horrible choices Ohio is making in public education XP

I hate essays like deadly poison. Your average history essay isn't that different than the kind you'd have to do for any other class, as even though history is generally about established facts, essays generally require you to synthesize your own interpretation of events from the facts, explain their significance, etc. Standard academic stuff x_x Now me, I was just a history buff and loved learning about it! I guess I loved it so much that I entirely neglected to even consider if a career could be made from it XP

Chibi always speaks the truth. I guess that describes me well XD

Thanks for the welcome!

Well, hello!
Figure I may as well talk to you here as on twitter.

Not really no. I'm not even a big fan of cake! Dx Or ice cream for that matter. I'm so boring. |D

Ironically, boring. |D
