You should send some of this weather to me, its been raining for a week now over here.

There's a way to send weather?
If it's not through email, I ain't sending

By the way DWK, you speak very good english, Is Guatemala an english speaking country?

Well thank you. No, Guatemala isn't an english-speaking country. It's quite the opposite. The "official" language is spanish. However, most people (even though they say they aren't) are mayan-descendant, so there are about 20+ (major) mayan languages, each according to the region they are located.

Nice grades adam
When I got out of high school, my average would be a 3/B/83. However, university has been a bitch. I won every class in the first semester with good grades (again, a good 3/b/8x average). However, the second semester was a bad one. Only passed one class, and with the minimum. Now I'm battling to get my average up and running again
But now it's gonna be harder with a job hehe jk well at least I'm learning more responsibility than what I had.

Well if your strength is in physics, that is a good thing. What kind of physics is it if it is not calculus based? AFAIK, physics is a nightmare. Part of Calculus is physics applications like "a ball is fall in at speed x at time z it hits particle y find the time they collide"...

Olololol. Lemme see. The courses I take every year are mostly 2 important ones: Math and Physics (the other is computer programming, but this is more because of system engineering rather than just engineering). I guess they help you be patient and think about stuff before you do it. It's pretty hard, but it just takes time to learn

I'm currently pushing a 4.0 the last two semesters, only problem, my second semester in college I decided the alcohol and MJ were my best friends, and came out with a 1.3, so my career average has been suckin' wind. I've finally got it to 3.03; hopefully I can get it up to at least a 3.5, and keep it there.
That one bad semester's really does stay with you, and haunt you the rest of your college span.

Olololol. The story of my 2nd semester Although it didn't involve alcohol and/or MJ It involved going to play pool and counter-strike Stupid me

Bleh long post again
Peace

Tu vives in Guatamala? Realmente? Donde naciste? Tu hablas como un gringo!

Oh, and I forgot to tell you THANKS&#33; 4th gen, you are the one who taught me how to take a screenshot..classic..

The physics I used to do in high school was the calculus based kind. "If you apply a force of 80N to a 10Kg box what is the acceleration" (obviously one of the easy examples ). At uni I was doing Mechanics & Materials and Waves & Optics.

You&#39;re welcome, I like to help out as many people as I can, I take great satisfaction from it [/b][/quote]
Wow, I could not survive in those classes, 4th gen. Let me ask you a question: how long does it take to finish you schooling to get your bachelor or whatever it is called. And what is the job market like where you live?

The bachelor degree is a 4 year course and the master degree is a 5 year course. Not sure about job prospects at the moment.

counter-trike is almost as addictive as alchohol or the mary jane, so your problem was almost as bad as mine.

Lolol. Ok so that everyone understands:

Si, vivo en Guatemala. Sin embargo, nací en Costa Rica. Afortunadamente, mi inglés no apesta (o es una mierda, como decimos aqui ) Estudié en un buen colegio

Yes I do live in Guatemala. I was born in Costa Rica, though. I&#39;m glad my english doesn&#39;t suck. I was taught in a good school though

w0ot B)

counter-trike is almost as addictive as alchohol or the mary jane, so your problem was almost as bad as mine.&nbsp;

Yeps. It all adds up just before finals, when you see what you can still salvage from the semester, or just throw it to the trash

Gladly, I learned the lesson. Right now, I&#39;m doing MUCH better, I&#39;m not missing classes, etc. And hopefully, this adds up to the fact that I start my new job on monday&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; w0oh0o&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

Actually the place I live has 99.9% pure water, so that&#39;s no problem. You can drink right from it
