Re: Gimpy vLove Shack vol. 3: Cool young Brits hub + their bros.
 I am excited about Mr MTF.
Talk to you in a few hours when I wake up, Winz.  Have a good weekend!!

Yep, she obviously has a crush on Lopez herself, so she was bound to point it out. It all depends on Hector's exam schedule and my own, of course. Far from guaranteed to be going, but if I did go, it would be great to see you there.
Quote:
What subjects are you doing? A Levels was when I was at my peak. Went downhill shortly after.
|
Double mathematics, physics & economics. I have high hopes that I'm on an upward trajectory. Hopefully I peak in a few years' time.
Quote:
What did you have to do for the competiton? They were giving away a car? Sorry you didn't win, but the tour sounds really awesome.
|
Design a futuristic car, draw it, write an extensive piece about it, and do a presentation on it. It went pretty well actually, but as I said, there were some really clever kids there. Yes, they were giving away a car, but the competition wasn't open to anyone. It's okay. I had low expectations going into it. But I'm delighted I will be able to see their factory.
All this, and I'm not even fond of cars.
Quote:
Good point. I'm different in real life than MTF though. Well, I guess everyone is to some extent, but I definitely say some things on MTF that I wouldn't say in real life.
|
There's always time to consider what one says on MTF. In real life, it's a split-second decision and sometimes regrettable things can be said. Or that's at least how I find it.
Quote:
Okay is it just me or is winter right around the corner? It's been so cold the past few days.
|
It was freezing cold last night. Walking home at around 11pm, the pavement which had leaves all over it was really icy. The air was freezing cold, and I only had a couple of layers on.

If you revert to being mean and nasty, you'll become the 6th seed in ACC. And that's much worse than being the 6th seed in PopCon.

But you can't revert to something that you never were to begin with.

 She hasn't told me about her crush. I am very disappointed.  When are qualies? I think I finish exams mid-June, followed by dissertation which is due end August.

I did Economics. I hated micro economics but really liked macro economics.  Your subject combi is the kind that would've got me EEEA if I had taken it.  Double mathematics =  You guys have a broad range of subjects to choose from for A Levels right? I remember reading somewhere online that you have Philosophy as an A Level subject? Our subjects were really conventional and boring: Maths, Physics, Chem, Bio, Literature, Geography, History, Econs, Art.  Might've changed now though.

Amazing. I couldn't come up with a design to begin with. You did a good job then.

Then why did you enter? I thought you liked cars.

Icy?  You should know better than to have only a couple of layers on.  I walked back to my hall at about 2.45 a.m. and I had three layers on and it was only a 5-minute walk and I was absolutely dying.

 I'm rooting for (among others) Gags, Smokey, Sophocles and Deathless Mortal.  Chances are, none of them will take part, and Gags...can't take part.

Hahaha the bear one.  I think it was real, yes. He'd win Mr MTF easily.

Let's try to convince Smokey to take part.  He can post his bathroom pics...
As for Sophy, I don't know.  I'm just smitten with his Oxford education, his intelligence, his British sense of humour, and the fact that he's a Federer fan.

Very true.  I overlooked that simple fact.

Monday, June 17th, to Thursday, June 20th.
EEEA?  I'm sure you would have done a lot better than that, but I take your point, these wouldn't be your strongest choices.
I don't mind the economics. Macro is more interesting, but micro is easier to understand for someone like me. It makes more sense. I am a bit of a nerd, but not too much of a nerd.
Yeah, we have a wide range to choose from. These were the only ones I was ever going to do, though. We do have Philosophy as a subject choice.

Thanks, I'm glad I did it in the end, despite the hard work.

The choice was made for me.
Yeah, I know I should. I never think like that, though.

If Javi doesn't take part, it will be quite an open contest this year.

 No way in hell that would happen. If I was to become a troll, it would be a more sophisticated kind. Not a spamming little idiot.
