Hehe, feel free to bounce.
Gonna get my grades the 3rd of july, if i can be bothered to drive to Antwerp (a whole 15-45 minutes!) to get them; if not, it'll be a wait for when they send it to me.
Arathorn, isn't that some kind of industrial engineering? As opposed to civil? (dunno tho, i stay as far away from engineering as humanly possible, brrr. Not only is the math killer (for me); th"ey got looooong hours of classes. Over here engineers have classes of 8 hours a day, while i got classes of 15 a week max )

I think it's more industrial yes, but I think it has some civil stuff in it too. I don't really know what civil engineering means actually, maybe that's just a simple version of the study I'm gonna do.
There's also a study even more difficult, "Lucht & Ruimtevaartechniek", wich is what I'm doing plus aerodynamics and space stuff. Too bloody difficult for me.

Heh, nicely done Suga! Why is it that 90% of girls/women i know get clothes for good points? Or alternatively, money in order to buy clothes. Hope they're nice tho! (the clothes)
Actually Arathorn, civil engineering is harder than industrial. I don't know how the Dutch post-school grades are called but:
An industrial engineer is an A1 in terms of diploma-ranking. (to compare: A2 is usually 2 years of basic training, and A3: just high school without specialized training) And a civil engineer is a university degree, a "licentiaat" in Dutch. So over here industrial ranks a bit under civil. Blabla. All that will change soon with the bachelor and master degrees prolly, they'll be equally ranked.
Space stuff lol, what wacko would want to study THAT?

sounds kinda like mechanical engineering to me. Civil engineering is building bridges and buildings and stuff like that. I was studying to be a civil engineer in college for about a year. Hate it. Hate hate hate. I wanted to be an aerospace engineer. Now I think I'm happy with computer science.
Erm, anyway, my classes aren't over till August.

Actually a friend of mine is going to study Physics and Astrology. But with space stuff I meant technical space stuff of course, like building satelites and such (otherwise it would not have fit with the rest of the study of course).

Lol. Well done with english and history. Great subjects to do if you are clueless. Just make it up as you go. With my "Crucible" essay on english, I talked more about McCarthyism in the US than I did the Crucible itself [Crucible was written to criticise the anti-communism court thingy in the 1950s - and the essay topic asked you to show how the play criticised the author's society ].
And yes, it does feel great. Especially after loads of exams. I once had almost 30 external exams one year. Ugh. The pain.

An ...... interesting.... combination there. Physics and fortune-telling.

As I said I'm more into alcohol. But I need to find some more effective space cake recipies.
I need to hold up the Dutch/Belgian honour.

just triple the, umm, active ingredient. That should be more effective.

But that would unbalance the recipe.
