Ranging from licenses servers, to student and staff web spaces, to back ups and so on. We have a lot of server blades, but it is for a lot of people so... XD |
Speaking of connections at the high-school/college level; one of the most inequitable cases I've observed is gaining admittance into the top ranked universities of the world on the basis of relations. Blatant slap across the face and efforts of all those who work hard and sweat for the spots.
This summer and towards the end of it: prepare for/commence university, and move to another country. Major changes are due. Maybe. |
My plans would have to be to finish moving to my new place and getting a GBA SP along with Metroid Zero Mission and Kingdom Hearts Chain Of Memories right now as far as summer's concerned. That and escape the depths of Purgatory but one fire at a time now.

@Xulek: I loved Chain of Memories! Have you played it before or will this be your first time? |

And yeah.. same plans with me. Carry on working, living, spending money, saving money, living life :3~ |
You all have such great lives.
As a 15 year old there's not much you can go do. Soooo hi PC Well, I'll be at a summer camp in about a month, because my parents reaaaaaally love me. Sigh |

Although, I could have put Augsburg instead. Actually, I sometimes do. (I switch between the two occasionally) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augsburg,_Arkansas I just thought of this, but for the past few DCC's I always have had make some mention about how I don't live in the UK or Germany. |

I find it quite depressing to observe that not all the classmates I've spent years with have the necessary capital needed to attain the class of education their intellect deserves. When undeserving imbeciles make it through with connections and their parents' bank accounts, it seriously bothers me. |

4.25 an hour my god, thats really low I wouldnt even bother going outside for that! /australian wages ftw.
Admitting people into college based on who they know not their skills is a very silly thing to do for the student and the school I believe. What if the student is as dumb as two planks of wood and fails every class they in and ruin the colleges rep and make it a school of "You got money? You're in?" rather than "Oh you're really intelligent and have a good work ethic, you're in!" I know which one of the two I'd prefer to go too.. |
Australian wages are RIDICULOUS. >:/
I think it's all about what's more important to the school, school spirit or academic integrity. Often people can get away with sacrificing a little academic integrity to build school loyalty. People that go to my school are scary loyal and having an entire family of people that went there really adds to your loyalty. My boyfriend has pictures of him at 1-2 years old wearing a "Future Notre Dame Student" shirt, and no one else in his family even goes here XD; |
Ohoho I remember. My history teacher from 7th grade was a huuuuuuge Cal State guy. He would cheer for the Cubs every time they were gonna play a game.
Oh and...if they have people graduating (without the curve), I'll say it's a good college. But that's just because I'm 15 and I don't know squat about colleges other than "Imma be a game guy someday!!!!! loolz also Game Designing is a tough job" |
In my previous jobs, my lowest wage was like, £7.20, which is really, blooming good for retail. Haha. |
I get 8 bucks an hour. 7.25 is minimum wage though.
|
My mom says she gets about $105/hr from what she gets paid. She works in semiconductor engineering (i dunno either) so it makes sense though.
|
Thing is though, we all live in such different economies and different jobs, us comparing income is strange! XD |
And different currencies to boot....XD
|
I love canadian coins.
Just. I paid for a chili dog and a drink, and I got $8 in just...change. Also the two-dollar coins! So much pretty. And the dimes are cool...the dots on the rim of the coin... |

I'm also thinking of dressing up as a Gardevoir and being a street performer. |
NO, DRESS UP AS GROVYLE
You should dress up as fried chicken! Um...yeah I wanna work at some job really. I don't care anymore... So, how'd the job hunt turn out today? Or are you on PC while the interview's happening? |
To find a summer job you really have to start looking in March-April. ;(
|
Duh, I know. That's why I don't have a job. Because all the jobs are for 16 year olds.
|
You'll wish you were too young to work though when you get to an age where it's kind of unacceptable not to have something to do over the summer and you have no choice but to work...XD;
|
DON'T WISH AWAY YOUR YOUTH. |
I think ideally we would be around 16-17 - old enough to work a job and get money, but young enough to not be expected to handle bills or rent or any of that hahaha.
