The 'What happened to you today' thread

[Venger]

You know what I've noticed. Every one on this forum, as for as I can tell, has the same general interests, drawing, reading, playing Morrowind, as just a few examples. I don't know what exactly this information does for any one, I just found it kinda intriguing.

[Dark Lord Cam]

No idea, but that'd need a lot of rope.

I C WUT U DID THAR!

Today people treated me like an adult.

I miss being a kid.

Britain got it's first hung parliament...
In India it's almost always a hung parliament.

I clicked on the link in Genralno1's signature and adopted a word! It has "vampire" in it so I really like it already.

When I run the world, all countries will be run by vampirarchies!

Hopefully they will hire mulomedics

I had a Russian listening mock, which I know will please some people. Though most of it was insultingly easy, with such sentences as 'please could I have some lemonade' or 'today in Moscow the sun is shining', the last question was a bit of a [&@%!]. Heh. Apparently, I was supposed to know the Russian for 'they have drawn the world's biggest Russian flag on the ground in Izhevsk main square, in order to attempt to break a world record.'

Otlichny.

They have? I should rest and meditate on what I've learnt.

Perhaps you shall reach level seventy-five.

The paper was set in 2009, and I think Russia then was officially 18, though this story came from 2005 on its 14th anniversary. I do know it was in Izhevsk, which we can also thank for the glorious AK-47.

Funny that a lot of people on an Elder Scrolls forum should do that, isn't it?

I briefly spoke to the second guitarist from TWDY (the one who just makes weird ambient noise) when I saw them - bloody nice chap.

Good job man. \m/ -_- \m/

[scribbane]

thanks, finishing my second year of college feels a lot different than i thought. Perhaps because I have now attended two different colleges for those two years. The first one I loved, but did not do well in. This second one was, eh okay, and I have done great in. Perhaps because of the change in my major, its hard to tell at this stage, but maybe when I go to yet another school in two semesters, spring of next year I will know.

Right now I am just happy that I am doing better. It took some careful manipulation, and some annoying but necessary extra credit to get what I got but its worth it in the end.

[Kestral]

I got a new Prime Minister today.

I'm surprised you aren't bickering about it.

We're not allowed to, are we? I'm quite happy that Cameron is in charge though, although everyone I'm friends with on Facebook seems to think otherwise.

Well I guess so, but I guess I meant how you talked about Brown and Mandelson as just bad people and not politicians, most of the time.

I woke up, got out of bed, plugged all the cables back into my pc, switched it on, checked my email and saw that another of the places where I applied for a job, replied. With one of those dreadful questionnaires. Things like "How would you describe yourself?" and "What's your ideal job?" and "Where do you see yourself in five years' time?". So now I'm going to try to complete it truthfully.

Why do they even bother with that?

You're there to earn a living, not meet your soul mate.

Exactly! They want sombebody to answer phones and do admin, not exactly something that's rocket science, and not exactly anybody's life goal. IMO, they should just be worried about whether I can do the job.

Well, you could reply tot those questions with these answers.

Job Interviewer,"How would you describe yourself?"
Leilah, "Ummm, smokin' hot."

J.I., "What's is your ideal job?"
Leilah, "One that pays a lot of dough but requires very little effort on my part."

J.I., "Where do you see your self in five years?"
Leilah, "Hmmm, that's a tough one. The more likely place would be prison I suppose."

...and other ways to get fired before they even hire you. It made me laugh though so thanks Also since I'm ridiculously lazy the middle answer is correct.

All of a sudden the weather decided to become freakin' hot. So we had classes outdoors, in the shade of the inner courtyard. I guess for Europeans and Americans it is quite an ordinary thing - at least, I have often seen students and professors chilling out under some tree in movies - but in our University an outdoor Latin class was an altogether unusual experience. It was as if our Vera Borisovna was some kind of ancient scholar and we were her apprentices

Just one more day of school left, and how I wish I had been part of the Morphsuit rampage that went on. No, I just watched the unplugged concert featuring a rather poorly executed Rickroll.

I don't think I'll manage it, especially since now I have a cold from standing around in the freezing weather yesterday failing to do long jump.

It's not a common thing in South Texas.

Central Air Conditioning is just too sweet to go without.

Just be happy that it isn't 46°C(today's temperature)
