What comes to school, Psychology and Philosophy starts in a few weeks ( ), and I'm doing work (not really ) to pass my Swedish course.

Oh, a wise guy eh? Ah well....I think I bombed it big time so it looks like I'm gonna have to bust my a** and study a heck of a lot for the final.

For BAC stuff- Mr. Prez., I'm almost done with a short post concerning the Drone/Hive altercation near our borders. I'll stop it right at the point where the Drones'll have to make a decision about staying and fighting or running away.

For manga-I STILL think Vampire Hunter D and Ninja Scroll are the best! Kick butt hero and lots of action for the manly type.

[Mr. President]

Cool. I'll pick it up from there, then.

[Kassiopeia]

Heehee. Health Education presentation essay. Er, did I mention I loathe obligatory HE? That means I've every moral right to copy the essay from the Internet. Of course I'll modify it a bit, I'm not that stupid.

But this means that I'll have time to write BAC. I hope.

[Mr. President]

Health Education? I may or may not have done that in ninth grade. What do they teach you?

[Sprayber]

Hey all. I apologize for my inattention. Real life has been difficult as of late. I will promise to get my post in this week(or actually two posts with all i have to write)

[Kassiopeia]

Sprayber, no problem. I'ven't been a flurry of activity either for the past few days.

Health Education? I may or may not have done that in ninth grade. What do they teach you?

Eating right, reminding us how exercise is imporant, drugs, smoking, alcohol, general health stuff. In Finland there's a huge amount of obesity and cardiovascular diseases around.

Did you ever do Values Education? In fourth grade there was this guy who came into our classroom on Monday mornings and sang Christian songs. That was in Tasmania, though. In the US he'd have been arrested for bridging the separation of church and state and that school would have been shut down.

The latter is what we call Religion. It's mandatory for all who belong to the Church, including me, albeit I've firm plans to separate from it once I turn eighteen.

Yeah, we get quite a lot of Christian *coughcrapcough* here, considering the Lutheran Church is quite connected to the state. I don't mind it though. I'm not that weak in my atheistic 'faith'.

[Sprayber]

Thanks Kass. The first post is finished. Now ill work on the Spartan arrival to the Cadre system and some other tidbits.

Mr. President: Were the Drone going to conduct the attacks on the pirates alone or did you want Spartan ships to be involved as well.

[Mr. President]

Sprayber: I was thinking that the regular Drone forces would concentrate on Pirates within Drone territory, and, if you wished, the Spartans could do the same on their side of the border. Perhaps unofficial and irregular forces like the Omega Glory would cross borders quietly. Itamar is still technically a pirate himself, so if the Spartans or other caught him doing something illegal the military would disavow knowledge.

[Mr. President]

Cool interview, by the way.

And re Health Education, perhaps a couple of other places could use that. They say some high-ish proportion of Americans are overweight now (though that is such a subjective term - the "authorities" and sometimes even the fashion industry decide what constitutes "overweight". I don't have a physique like an Olympic athlete, but neither am I obese; I can play soccer and I don't sweat while eating).

[Frankychan]

good posts guys!

Sprayber-Lots of Hive bashing, aint there?

"Health Education"...."Values Economy"???

What the heck? I've never heard of those courses, but I did take Japanese in high school. (passed w/a courtesy 'D')

....yes, I was a troublemaker in school. But I did play percussion in the school's band! Go bass drums!

Kass- I dont think Finland can be that obese. Finnish chicks are HOT! I was watching 20/20 and some other nighttime news agencies and they said that the US has the highest amount of obese ppl on the planet.

I don't know why, but I find this rather funny.

[Mr. President]

I stole the last part from The Simpsons.

Ok, ok, you got a mercy D but still.



I would've taken it too but the teachers didn't want to teach it. I took Latin instead...

Finnish chicks are HOT!

I know
Except the blondes. I dont' really prefer blondes. Probably because there's so many around.

Finns are obese. At least the men. My uncle is around 130 - 140 kg. I used to be about 110, but lost over 20 kg from it this summer. Now I'm 85. I intend to lose some 15 more from that.

[Frankychan]

Oooh baby! I'd probably like it there....

You'd probably like it HERE as well, Blondes are in short supply here....mostly asians (also my type) here.
