I'm starting to wonder about the education level of certain people here.

But beyond that I'm just curious what everyone does with their lives...

During the school holifdays, i wish as little contact with people as possible, so its pretty much in here, on computer, listening to music, or Playing guitar, or Composing music...:D
And no i'm not dumb i passed my exams in may, so becuase i just wanna do fuck all and be alone, doesnlt mean i'm not clever :D :D

I start my studies at the University on monday. Planning on getting the Master degree in history. And perhaps philosophy, we'll see.

School in general is a drag :mad: Next year for math, i got the teacher who wants to butcher me, and kick me out of school in 1248358 tiny pieces in a Tesco carrier-bag. Help.

between goin to school, band practice, playing shows, spending what little time i have left with my friends and my girlfriend, being on the internet quite a bit, and sleeping...... thats about it...

i work 2 nights a week, hit the gym 3 times a week, play guitar, listen to music. once school starts, i'll be studying(not really, school's been getting easier every year yet i still have good grades) and as soon as december hits, i'll be playing rugby!!

mrweijia
2002-08-17, 12:06
oh yeah, and as soon as my band gets organised and everyone's in the same city, we'll be having practises.

2002-08-17, 12:14
hey man, i've got the same problem. i have an average drummer, but she's not really into metal and a bassist who's into stuff like the vines and the hives and etc.. but he likes acdc. and we dont have a singer either so this band is kinda fucked up.

Graduated last year. Leaving for the Navy in probably a month.

I don't know why I'm telling you this, I'm sure many of you already know.

The only people I actually miss are two of my teachers. Mr. Ranck, because he was like a 28 year old version of me, he was awesome, and Mr. Ranta, because he is probably the smartest person I've ever known in my life.

I hated most of the people I went to school with, and I didn't learn a whole lot in school, to be honest with you. Couldn't keep my mind occupied enough to enjoy myself, so it sucked.

I guess this comes across as a No, but I'll also be basically in school for the Navy for a year. Nuclear Power school, which I'm sure will be much more challenging.


...of course, now that people are starting to leave for college and all, it's getting a little more depressing. It seems kinda weird that a lot of people you've known for years you might never see again. Just said goodbye to Dieff_54, my friend Brad today. I'll miss some people, but I won't miss many.

No, he didn't get picked on, because he was an awesome teacher. Taught Astronomy, Chemistry, and Physics. Of course, if you insulted him, he'd make you feel like a complete idiot just by being all smart and that type of thing, but he was cool, so no one really ever had a problem with him.

I practice w/ my band Catacomb EVERY day....we play gigs at this place called Wired Frog....we havent played there in a month tho..its always booked w/ other bands, shitty ones. Bands that are tryin to be blink 182 or sumthin... we're the ONLY local band around that has heard of somethin called a "guitar solo". And my band members kick ass!!! Our drummer eric henry is the fastest double bass drummer..and we play shit that kinda has kalmah/children of bodom/sonata arctica influences. I put a column in our local newspaper about our band needing a new rythem guitarist.....and i know u guys prolly cant help, but if u know of a relative, friend,...etc that lives in Birmingham, Michigan that plays metal rythem guitar...lemme know:beer: ..........oh! and outside m band there is hell, i mean school.:vampire:

i am a senior at high school, happily playing hacky sac during lunch, and whenever possible. i am in the orchestra planning on going to (for ya'll in the usa) rice university, or university of north texas at denton, dallas for scholarship. i get average grades and do everything at the last minute. i sleep during most of school because i am able to do everything they ask of me and turn in perfect essays before the due date, ohh wow, for five to ten extra points. i'm not dumb, just lazy. i think most will agree that i am one of the best guitarists in the school, which isn't hard, everyone sucks. on off hours of school, i am on the computer, on cakewalk, writing and transposing music for maybe three to four hours daily, and practice guitar for maybe thirty to an hour a day. but i practice my double bass(orchestra) atleast one to two hours a day. i work tcby on weekends.:D

99% of my teachers were assholes, but i miss the times of high school, not the teachers. i'd easily go for another year if i could........

I'm like wally. I graduated over a year ago....but i mainly miss one teacher. He was my chemistry teacher, but he was the best teacher i've ever had.

I also had another cool teacher....he taught physics.

There were no good times in high school. None.

i left school because i wasn't going to go to UNI anyway, and i already knew everything (well...more) than wat we did in ancient history (only subject i liked) and i was top of my class in maths and acing exams and shit so i got bored. i dont study...do homework...or listen in class. i'm just one of those freaks who knows shit. cept i've forgotten all my math cause i hate it, but my science and history knowledge is STILL expanding :D

so i'm gonna get a fulltime job at a retail store or something until end of year and go to TAFE next year....but for now..i'm a full time bum and internet addict.

My fondest school memory was walking around the main hallway in flippers, a fireman's hat, a Pantera shirt and a pair of shorts. Our principal was laughing his ass off and said "I don't even want to know why the hell you're dressed like that" and walked back in the office :)

Why the hell did you do that?! lol fucking funny dude! I once wore a beret and walked into my maths class perfect army style, cause it was my last lesson and I'd taken to calling my teacher corporal. and that same lesson we trashed our maths classroom and my friend jumped down the stairs. Was rather amusing... then the teacher quit.:D
