    congrats sprinks and remarkable!

    I've just had my 40 mins oral exam in Physical Geography and got a B. I would have given myself a C. I did know a lot, but the stupid examiner kept asking the wrong questions. I had studied my two special topics in a systematic way and could have given them in a logical, well-structured order, but he kept asking about stupid "facts" that didn't even really have to do with my topic.
    Anyway, I can't complain about a B.

    Congrats, Sleepy. What's left now?

    I have just met a German lady who teaches ESOL at the college I work; have you heard from that job application yet?

    now there's only regional geography (I'm doing the structural change of the US economy + toursim in Germany).
    about the application, the deadline is only in March and they haven't even got the details for 2009 on their homepage yet. so I hope they haven't cancelled this programme.

    Congrats to everybody!

    New puppy knows how to sit, fetch AND do his business outdoors (most of the time.) And he's only 7 weeks. XD
    Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.

    I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.

    Impressive!!!!
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    Congrats to everyone from me as well. As to you Becca, wow, you are a good trainer. Seven weeks and all the they want to do is run, eat and sleep.

    Virg, as I'm not in school or working right now, I've got unlimited time, attention and energy to spend on puppy. He has about three hours of 'good phases' throughout the day. The rest is insanity.

    That's fabulous Remarkable. Where are you from? Your profile doesn't say. And what part of the US will you be?

    I've won best actor TWICE in our group awards ceremonies. I have also won best play in a national NODA awards - it was for The Haunting of Hill House.
