Poor you.

I've got Taks tests next week. You'd think I'd get a load of homework in preparation (sp?) for it. But instead, I get about 30 minutes of Social Studies, and math that usually takes me about an hour to finish (I'm really slow in math); though both teachers have been giving us time during class to do the stuff, so I don't have as much to do at home. Except for the social studies, which I have been putting off for homework in favor of helping my friends do this poster - thing.

My history teacher has this thing where each one of his classes gets to put something up on his large bulliten-board. It usually has to do with what we're learning in class. And since my class is his second to last class, it is our turn. Some of my friends have come up with an idea for i, so I've been helping them with it a bit (though I really haven't gotten to do much, yet.)

[QUOTE=CM]I have personal problems. I have had a headache for 3 days straight. I have slept 10 hours in 50 hours and work is hell and not because of me and my mission. These bastards at the UN do no work whatsoever. Why the hell do they get paid so much? What they take 10 people and 2 weeks to do the mission does in 2 days with 1 person.

These UN people are pathetic. They should be fired a good 50% of them and they should hire me.

Now i am off to sleep. First time i am sleeping before midnight this week.[/QUOTE]

I had to deal with co-workers like that in my jobs. Seems like its an American thing, although I could be wrong. Doesn't it make you want to bury management and take their jobs?



Hey WBG!

Whats a Taks test?

I want to go to school...

[QUOTE=Tower_Master]LMAO! Something must be done indeed! TO THE THINK...tank...oh, wait, by stating this, you posted! drat. Besides the test, how's life been, Fibey?[/QUOTE]

Long and boring... To much tests these days
I also hate the record shop where I live... They won't get the Cd's I want. So to get them I either have to order them from USA or get another record shop order them.

Just be careful with ordering anything from the US if you live in the EU. I had to pay 30% tax for importing my bow

That is expensive like ****. But I don't think that 2 cd's, 2 dvd's and a shirt is the most expensive things.

In the case of my bow, it was still worth it, but you have to count with tax whatever you buy.

You gotta love Monty Python. They were ahead of their time before time was invented. Spam

30% tax Brynn? Is that a tax from your country for importing, or mine for exporting do you know?

Er... Actually, it was 25% and 5% handling fee. Here at home 25% VAT is included in the prices (25% for products and 12% for services).

I wouldn't have had to pay if it was imported from an EU country.

Ouch, well, that sounds more like a shipping and handling fee included in that than all taxes though.

No-no, I had to pay tax for the shipping as well! See, the product was $374, shipping was $44, and I payed 25%+5% for $418...

Oh wow, that is HARSH. I spent about $200 on booze and food this week for my parties if it makes you feel any better.

"_" Can I call you a big spender? However, I guess that money won't stop you for having a good time eh?

[QUOTE=Magrus]Oh wow, that is HARSH. [/QUOTE]

But still it is not worst than Brazil... I imported ToB. The result was: 50% taxes, plus the dollar cost (1 real = 2 - 3 dollars depending of the economy), so I paid 250% the real cost of the game.

But it was worth it. Now I plan doing it with Tostc, but in the future.

lol No But again, it was worth it even with the taxes - I have my fantastic bow

hey brynn
Have you got all the risers and extra majigs now? feel like posting a pic of you posing with your bow?

Oh Gilly's back, good

Yeah, I got every little thing I need - don't want to make a list and bore you all to death with it

Everything is fine, I just have to tune it properly now. I'm really glad b/c I hadn't really got the chance to try everything before buying (the most important were the limbs and the sight in this regard), so I mostly relied on other people's experience and advices, and I was a bit afraid of not getting the right thing or making the wrong choice. But every part turned out to be really good, best prodcuts I could choose, the limbs are absolutely superb (fantastic sound, fast and smooth), the sight is OK too, and...

Eh, I know, I stop

You know... some guys find it an incredible turn on listening to beautiful women talking about weapons

[QUOTE=Fiberfar]"_" Can I call you a big spender? However, I guess that money won't stop you for having a good time eh? [/QUOTE]

Oh, you can call me a big spender. I've been treating my friends out to eat lately so that really added to the cost (about $70 worth). It's been my vacation and big blowout week long party. Tonight, is night 7 for me.

Well that's good you found it worth it.

[QUOTE=giles337]You know... some guys find it an incredible turn on listening to beautiful women talking about weapons[/QUOTE]

Oh yes, one of my ex's used to have a knife collection and she knew how to use them. Somewhat frightening at times, but definately a turn on sometimes too.
