weird feeling of alienation

[Koa]

Oh my god...what s happening... I havent had time to come here for a while I look around, i recognise the people and the atmosphere... but i dont find anything to say (exclamation mark, whose key is missing on this pc :rolleyes:)... I feel like alienated...extraniated (???)...whatever....sigh, it should still feel like home (exclamation mark)
For the record, i havent forgotten about you guys, just I seem not to have time for anything lately in this new world I m in...
Well just popped in to say hi, will try to post something cos I miss this, if I find my way to feel familiar here again...
Hugs to everyone, hi to the newcomers (if there are) :)

[Jay]

There always are newcomers ;)
Hey Koa :D, how's Hungary?
Oh, just to bring you up to date ;), there's been a notion of mass hijackings of threads, lol, so it's been a little funny around :p.

[Koa]

btw, hungary is cool, having a great time:)

[amuse]

oh goody, was going to start a thread asking everyone about classes, midterms impending finals and review papers. all because i wanted to know "how is hungary." :D question answered!

[crisaor]

Hi Koa, welcome back. :wave:
Don't feel bad, it's not like we've been saying particularly clever things lately (quite the opposite actually). Tell us how's it going for you, I'm sure most of us would like to hear that.

Well Sub I just finished a three midterms stint, all three last friday all in a row. The results are not the best to be desired.

Indeed, sounds like me with all the blinking tests!

[Scheherazade]

Tests???

The only tests I deal nowadays are the ones I prepare for my students! :D

[subterranean]

I had my exams last sunday...went pretty ok except the last subject which was History of English Literature :( Actually that was my fav subject, but i didnt study. But last week was better, two weeks ago i feel asleep when working on my exams...:rolleyes:

What are you studying Sub?

I teach English, Maths and IT.

[Stanislaw]

Thats pretty cool, what level do you teach at?

[Jay]

Whoops, misspelling an English teacher's username... now that's funny ;). AH, now it's all clear about the red ink remark ;).

[Scheherazade]

I teach adults up to College level.

*noted the misspelling duly* :D

[Jay]

ahem, indeed.
*not really sure what that means... but you're the teacher here ;)*

[Stanislaw]

where would the red ink industry be without teachers.

[Scheherazade]

On the way out? ;)

[Jester]

my mom uses purple pens for her grading, she finds the red too bold and unduly mean

[Stanislaw]

I just had athought, what if the starter of this thread was not refeering to alienation...but alien nation!!!!!!! :alien:

[Jester]

would that mean that koa's an alien???

[Scheherazade]

my mom uses purple pens for her grading, she finds the red too bold and unduly mean

I use green or purple too :)

[Stanislaw]

isnt red traditional, also I don't think it is the colour that makes it mean, but how the paper is marked. If a person fails, a small F at the top of the page is nicer than a huge F in the middle of the page.

[Jester]

"size don't matter" its all int he color, jsut eveythings in the color

[Stanislaw]

I dont know
I was more worried when my teacher marked my paper in purple... I was like "what the hell is this"?,

It will iratated me for a few days.

myabe I am just olpd school, but red is the mark of wrong... not magenta.

[Jester]

but what about fuschia, bright bold fuschia, if i be a teacher im usind fuschia to mark my papers ;)
