If the education system is working against you then I can imagine that you're not so interested in getting college degrees.
Had I known it was going to be like this, I would have went for a job instead. Hell, getting an apprenticeship wouldn't have been so hard then and they're made for 16-19 year olds to gain experience. You know, the job applications that I applied to hundreds of and didn't get a single fucking job for it?
I think you talked about that, yes. I guess after the economical crisis it has gotten much harder for young people with 0 experience like us to get a job.
It's even sadder when I got a job at a school with ease and they ask for high expectations considering criminal record checks are needed as well as high quality work.
Well I can imagine they would do a criminal background check, because it would give the school a terrible reputation if it came to light that someone has a criminal record. For other companies and employers it might matter less cause they can just fire them and move along, but schools have a public function.
Ha, sounds like a good opportunity to dick around on Newgrounds while earning money at the same time :p If you don't have anything else to do that is.
Newgrounds is the last site I even want to go on at work. Even if no-one in the office is watching me I'm sure they log the sites the workers go on. Infact, Newgrounds could be blocked for all I know considering it's school computers.
Oh yes, chances are it is. A while ago I brought out my laptop at a McDonalds and I wanted to check Newgrounds, but it was blocked because one of the sites tags is 'adult content'. Most schools probably automatically block those.
So it just comes down to that if you want to get abilities like Break Damage Limit, you have to go through some painful sidequest to get it. But I also saw that once you have that skill, the main game becomes easy as fuck... So the only reason you might have to get them is for the sake of completing the game 100%.
To beat everything besides Nemesis, some arena fiends and the dark aeons, it's actually a walk in the park. However, if you really want to beat Penance you'll need the best customization from the weapons and armour. For American players, they have nothing to worry about since they didn't get dark aeons or Penance. That's actually a bummer for them since they missed out on great challenges.
Heh, yeah so they basically took out the two biggest challenges of the game.
The Spoony that died from the explosion after the FF VIII review? Makes some sense, but I don't think he explained it that well.
But why that Spoony turned evil and where the other Spoony came from makes no fucking sense whatsoever. Meh, it's a weak plot point so I shouldn't be surprised at the bigger plot holes Spoony puts in his own than FFVIII and FFX ever had.
Lol :p
Oh well, of course it's all for fun and he probably isn't too serious when he thinks it up.
Oh yes, that wasn't a bad system either. Unfortunately I never finished FFVI cause my save file got corrupted, but I remember I was busy teaching Terra and Cecil every magic spell as well as getting the last few espers I needed. Then I was gonna storm Kefka's castle.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Be sure to give that game a second chance.
Yeah, I want to, but I can't really motivate myself to go through almost the entire story AGAIN and collect all the espers AGAIN. Currently I got plenty of games still on my play list (one of them being the DS remake for FF IV). Once I'm done with those I might give the game another playthrough.

No of course not. I was just saying that people who come from big families are more happy to have children than people who were only child or come from smaller families.
Possible - I know that mum wanted 6 kids, but was stopped by dad at two. Sometimes, I wish that he'd put his foot down after one, then it would just be me.
Ah yes, your brother troubles. Oh well, surely there must've a point somewhere where you two could get along quite well.
I'm guessing he's not catching much sleep because the kid often starts whining in the middle of the night.
Well, he's the most well adjusted baby I've ever met - he sleeps through seven hours at night, before waking for a feed, then back to sleep.
That sounds pretty good for a baby. He's a lucky guy then, the majority of the babies I meet are incredible whiners.

Not something you would guess, no. Most have a lock function somewhere on the outside of the device.
Yeah, and when I didn't see one I thought it doesn't have a key lock. After 2 or 3 years I discovered it by accident. Somehow the key lock activated itself in my pocket and I had no idea how it did that. So I had to take out the battery so I could operate it again.
Luckily I found a review where someone mentioned the key lock and how it works.
Lol. In a similar way I discovered the shuffle function of my iPod. Sometimes when I put it in my pocket, it shuffled to some other song. I didn't know what was going and put it back to the song I selected, but then it shuffled again as I put it back in my pocket. Turned out that it goes to shuffle mode if you shuffle it >.<
It's funny how that silence would probably attract a lot of attention from the viewers.
Yes, but it didn't work out. Or else I would remember the company. ^^
Yeah, and maybe that's why commercials tend to be loud rather than quiet. So that you will remember the jingles and company names.
Oh well, you'll probably find some time to get it once you're done studying.
Doubt it. :P
If you're going straight into applying for jobs then you won't.
Yeah, but you live in Hamburg. I live on some island with some small towns, about 20 km away from 'the big city' (Rotterdam). I know in Rotterdam the public transport is always available, but where I live there are only busses and they only come once an hour after 20:00. After midnight there are no busses anymore until five in the morning or so.
That's why I could never live in a small city.
My gf comes from a very small city (about 200 inhabitants or so) and every kid there gets his/her drivers licence as soon as possible. It's just not possible to get around there without a car.
Same here. Most people get it as soon as possible after they turn 18, and there are also a lot of 16-17 years olds driving around on scooters so that they won't have to cycle to school.
So going to parties with the bus isn't that handy since you'll have to leave at around midnight.
But going to parties by car isn't handy as well because you can't drink alcohol.
That's one of the major downsides indeed, but sometimes someone offers a place to sleep.
NOOOOOOO! >: (
Come on. The bass is pretty awesome.
Nooo! Never!
