    GET WELL SOON
    I have an extremely sore throat, no fever yet (though I feel like it might be on the way too). No reason to see a doctor, I think, I don't think it's the swine flu... Or at least I hope it isn't

    Check the fever regularly and go see a doctor if it goes near or above 38, just in case. It's better to prevent than it is to heal

So, all is good!

    Next eight months will be looooonnnggg but I am looking forward to it all.

    Congrats!!
    Gosh I am feeling jealous of all you students, at the same time I really need this year off soooo..
    have fun!!

    Thank you all very much ladies but it is rather premature for the congratulations...

    Please wish me luck and let's celebrate in June (hopefully when we all pass)

    Tru dat!

    Having said that, the engineering students keep me employed; their literacy skills are usually so poor that they end up having to take extra English classes.


    Night> Why not take an OU course as well? Just for fun? Those short, taster courses are so tempting!

    Well, engineering students make fun of us arts students, too. It's sort of a "friendly" rivalry.

    I would argue but ya'll have seen my writing.
    But really who needs literacy when you have numbers????

    erm, I know. Rarely do I get the chance on this board to poke at the artsy types.

    I usually don't go to the rooms after 8PM. I'd prefer not to stay that late on campus. It takes me 75-90 minutes to get home using the TTC, so I usually just leave as soon as my classes are over.



    Let's not be mean .
    Ah, we'll leave it at that - it clearly is the ground floor though - it is labeled one, at any rate.

    ^ Are you sure about that? The floor that I'm describing as the ground floor really is labeled "Ground Floor." I saw it on the floor directories.

    Well, I think engineering students have good reason for that!

    Don't encourage them, Scher, they don't need any help, they can manage it all by themselves (she says, having been married to an engineer.....).

    Where is JBI when you need him? Instead, he leaves me here to defend arts students on my own.

    Im guessing maybe us social scientists are too busy just sitting back and observing you to actually participate!

    I study at the faculty of arts, and I'm the first to admit that most of the studying done there is completely useless Not what I study, though No, seriously, translation is probably the only practical thing that can be studied there and also the only one that prepares you for working life (unless you want to become a teacher, that is )

    There are really far too many jobless people who have a master's degree from the faculty of arts, desperately looking for work, any work...
