Mongolian studies and German literature sounds very interesting indeed... I just don't read enough to do a degree like that! I smiley - love my computer too much! Heh...

It is interesting. Well, not so much German literature since there are like 30 or more articles about nearly every piece of literature. In Mongolian studies - well, I wrote a paper about the different Mongolian scripts (they had six different scripts through out the last 1000 years) and I was like the first to ever write about that in German. And it's so amazing to give a paper knowing that you know about that particular topic than your teacher. smiley - smiley

smiley - yawn Just so you know... I'm heading to bed now before I fall asleep in front of my computer, knock my head onto the keyboard causing my computer to yet again go smiley - nahnah on me.

So say hi to Nitina from me, will you? And if she wants to have another chat - smiley - smiley

Well, I'm up again, too, been talking a walk in the park and have decided to next write an entry on Joaquin Phoenix.

So, how did your exam go?

I'd rather not talk about it! It was OK, but not exactly what you'd called "well". Never mind, it's probably the last time I'll ever have to do a maths exam...

Was this exam part of your final exams then?

It was, but my final exams are only 25% in total... the exams in January were another 25%, the second year counted 25% in total, and my final-year-project is worth 25%.

And didn't you say you were only just 21? And you're about to finish?

Also, I think it's good when the exams you did before and that project count. In Germany it's all about that last exam which consits of one written test and some oral tests and one big paper you have a few months to work on.

I've pushed the education system to its limits, doing everything as fast as I can... GCSEs at 16, A-levels at 18 and Undergrad degree at 21. I'm going to wait a bit and earn some money before I do a Postgrad, though. Getting married at 21, like I have, is quite an anomaly these days in Britain too, don't know what it's like in Germany. I guess I'm just one for wanting everything NOW! smiley - winkeye

smiley - yikes about the way your course is structured ... that's the way it used to be in England, and still the way it is at the poshest universities like Cambridge and Oxford.

I think we've drifted off topic long enough now, and we should move this conversation to your personal space...

Superman's original voice was in the Heroic Tenor fach. You can hear it in the earliest animations when the creators were alive, which are now available on VHS in the US of A.

(It was in the 1930s, and in the earliest few, he cannot fly, and it was an interesting plot point that he *could* leap the tallest building).
