Jessie

The deadline was on Monday, so it's been a while since then lol. Good news though, I was able to finish it and I passed the class. Now I only need to take 1 class in my next quarter instead of 2, but I might still just go for 2 in case I fail one. I wouldn't want to have to stay behind and spend another quarter of school just b/c of one class. As for studying, I procrastinate a lot, so I don't usually study much, only around 2-4 hours before the exams and usually the night before or day of, since my classes were all in the afternoon. I hope to do better next quarter b/c I don't really like being pressured so much ~_~... although sometimes it's nice. As for projects, I usually work on them a bit at a time a few days before they're due. But you're right, some projects are kind of different, so working on them can be a bit strange. For my senior design project, we need to put in 30 hours individually every 3 weeks, so as long as you manage to put in that many hours, it's usually okay how you split the work. I feel the same, like it's a lot of work, so I won't know if I truly want to do it until I start working. If I feel like I can handle it and it's important enough to me, then I probably won't mind putting in the effort. Hmm... I think I would've wanted to go down the medical path and perhaps become a doctor. I wanted to either be an Anesthesiologist or a Cardiologist. Being a Neurosurgeon seemed interesting too, but I don't think I could handle the pressure from that ~_~

Oh, I did have freedom, until I read this email from my professor today. I guess I have to turn in a project if I want to pass her class. Oh well, I guess I'll be busy today lol. Hopefully your exams won't be too hard. How do you like to study to prepare for your exams, do you start studying a week before the exams and do you prefer studying in the library? Well, I hope things work out and that you can travel w/ your friend in the future. Traveling w/ friends and family are the best! It might be even more fun w/ a dog or cat, but there are sooo many regulations for that, so it makes it difficult to even just go on vacation w/ them T.T Ah, that subject seems really interesting. Seems quite similar to astrophysics o.o. Seems like you could probably work w/ satellites and telecommunications with a degree in that spatial sciences o.o. Yea, I definitely want to work before I do any traveling or going back to school. Buuut, I might not mind studying and taking my Actuarial Exams, while I'm working. It would just take me longer to study and prepare for the exams, but if it's something I want to do, then I think I could do it. Have you ever considered a completely different future path? Like instead of going into IT, have you ever thought about doing Veterinary Science or being an Architect?

Well I finished them already lol. They were at 2pm-4pm on Wednesday and Thursday. Now I'm free!!! Hmm.. I since you're an IT student, I would recommend "Release that Witch" over "The Human Emperor", but both are pretty good reads. Here are links to both of them if you have free time and need something to read. http://novelfull.com/release-that-witch.html http://novelfull.com/the-human-emperor.html Ah, mandatory, well I hope you pass that class w/ flying colors ^^. As for my Chinese friend, yea I'd definitely be up to meeting him, even if I was alone. I guess I feel a certain sense of camaraderie w/ him, plus I'm bigger than him, so if I had to run away, I think I could lol. Plus it's waaay more fun to be exploring another country with a local, at least I think so :-). Hmm, those sound like some awesome people. Maybe you wouldn't be so afraid if they were girls or if you could travel with one of your friends or family members? I have a lot of siblings, so I plan to do most of my traveling w/ them lol ^^. I've never heard of spatial sciences before. What do you study in that major? As for myself, I still have to decide if I want to take the exams to become an actuary after I graduate. Someday in the future, I may want to go back to school for a Master maybe as well.

Yep, so I get to relax quite a bit now. Just finished the most difficult out of the 3 exams a few hours ago. I'm kind of just relaxing and reading my webnovels and manga while studying a bit for the other two exams. I'm currently enjoying the novel "The Human Emperor". It's another one of those reincarnation webnovels from China. I enjoy it b/c there's actually some real historical events placed in the novel and the main character uses his brain more than his brawn to defeat his opponents. That class GNSS sounds quite difficult o.o. I'm surprised they are having you take that class, unless it's an elective and you were the one that wanted to take it lol. That's also a big population of foreign exchange students. I personally know only a few international students. One from China and I knew one girl from Brazil. I never knew they spoke Portuguese in Brazil, until I met that friend from Brazil o.o. My Chinese friend is pretty cool, he told me to visit if I ever was in Shanghai ^^. How about you, do you know any international students? That sounds like an interesting tradition. I hope everyone remains safe when they burn it down o.o. I was thinking that you had a festival along w/ the goat. I also noticed on your info page that you are planning to get a Physics degree after doing some traveling as well? o.O

Well I only have 3 exams and I didn't realize I didn't have an exam until the next day, so I'm kind of free for the moment. So I decided to hop on here for a while tonight and do some reading. How is it on your end, are you doing well in your studies? I remember you're also an engineering student. Do you get any foreign exchange students at your college? Over here we have a lot of foreign exchange students and we have many programs to go overseas as well. I think I mainly see Indian, Middle Eastern and Chinese students from overseas. I haaave seen a few business students who are from Germany as well. I think every 4 years or so, we also get a big group of exchange students from Brazil. Once I graduate, I hope to get a job and just get to work this summer lol. I don't think my parents would like it if I took a break, although I would like to travel to some place, like Japan or Alaska, I need some savings for that lol. Once I save enough, I can then do that. I think at the moment, I'm more looking forward to paying off my student loans than not. Oh, I also did a quick google of your town, and something called the "Gävle goat". What is that exactly, do you know?

Thanks a lot Jessie! It's only one more week ^__^. I'm always happy to hear people cheering me up... not to say that it doesn't embarrass me though ~__~ lol. I'm not really used to being cheered on by people. I'm the type that likes to be pushed through on willpower alone. Although... there was one time when I was running in a marathon and a guy came up next to me b/c I was struggling and he jogged w/ me and that motivated me a lot along w/ his encouragements to finish and reach the end, even if I did have to take breaks. Aw that's too bad about how conversations drain you. My turn to hope, so I hope that you at least gain something from these conversations ^^. Do you have your own favorite dinosaur or mythical animal? Also, I would enjoy it if I saw my favorite dinosaur again someday. It'd be even more awesome if it was like the movie "Jurrasic Park" and people could actually bring them back to life o.o
