Ah, we have those problems in the netherlands as well.
I'm currently in the third grade (In the netherlands you first get 8 years school, and then another 5 years on another school) and all we get computer-wise is typing, typing, typing. It sucks.

There aren't much schools that actually teach things with computers.
If I'm going to go towards that direction I'll probably have to go to Germany.
That wouldn't be that much of a problem considering I live pretty close to there.

But I don't know if that's a possibility for you. And money, blergh. It's what ruins this whole world.

We all got ourself stuck in a never-ending loop that requires us to have money, else we won't get anywhere at all.
I'd prefer trading some wood and some stone for lessons. :)

Sorry to divert from everyone's ambitions, but I'm particularly grumpy today.

My rant is against slow drivers. Well, actually, OVERLY CAUTIOUS where they're so cautious they almost get you killed every other minute.

Like my grandmother who's foot is on the brake every two seconds(i think it gave me whiplash), or who slows down to like 20 when approaching a green light if there are more than two lanes, or who waits FOREVER to make a right turn, and does it so slow the guy half a km back nearly rear-ends her, or who notices a cop across the street halfway through a left turn arrow(which had just turned yellow) and nearly STOPS in the middle of the intersection cuz shes worried about the cop. Okay grandma he didn't care until you did THAT! Now he'll just follow us for 15kms.

No matter what my mood I'm angry when I get out of her car. Seriously, she should just let me drive if she's so damn scared of vehicles. ..

Thats it. Sorry.

What about those mini-motor-things for old people? :P
My grandma rides on one like that.

Speaking of grandmas, condolences to you, Seko. (If that's the right word. :S)

You don't? Wow, that sucks. I still have three of my grandparents.
And funerals suck as well. I still remember all the stupid stuff when my grandpa died. Luckily the priest who did everything in the church was a funny guy. And my grandma was shouting everyone would get soup at home after the funeral (while crying, it was sad, funny and cute at the same time). :P

At times like that you really get to know what everyone in your family is really like. (Especially who's the jerk and thinks they deserve to get everything. ugh. >.<)
I hope you won't experience something like that.

So, you know Wichita in real life? Or did Wichita tell you about them?

EDIT: Bah. My Cantr characters are all boring lately. Except for three.
Luckily one of my fun characters got someone visiting. Waiting for him to wake up. He's probably sleeping IRL (timezones) because he was fairly active in the morning (my morning).

Luckily I still have left half of my grandparents. One grandfather died before my birth and the other one when I was six. I never attended the funeral because my parents thought I were to young. I wonder if they were right.
Pretty in pink.

Cool. I should visit people a bit more often, too. I'm way too much inside, but then again.. I like it like that. :)

And I'm not the kind of person who plans ahead, I just do whatever comes up my path.

Oh and a rant. At school proper discussions aren't even possible because most people don't even know what I'm talking about.

Like when I'm saying Hitler is a hypocrite because he didn't allow new art-styles and stuff and wanted to keep everything the old way, but still used all kinds of new ways of communication to spread word about how he's going to save everyone. And then everyone's like "lol wut's hypocrite?"

And that's just one of the many examples. And at PE we had some stupid balance-thing with big hitting things and you had to kick eachother off.
It was stupid and I got bored. School is so boring.
If they'd actually teach me something interesting, ok. But they don't. >.>

Piscator - Funerals really, really suck. But it really depends on your family wether it's good for you to go to them or not. If it's a family without problems then it'll be allright. But if not, there's a chance there will be argueing.

And after the funeral my grandma refused to leave her house.
We wanted her to come live closer to us, so we could always come to her when she needs help.

After like, all her grandkids and her kids kept telling her it would be better for her she finally gave up and moved to our town.
Now it's a five minute walk to there, and she lives next to one of those houses for old people (what are they called again in english?).
And we also got her to stop freaking smoking. Seriously, I HATE smoking.

My aunt and uncle do nothing but work, eat, smoke and sleep. My aunt is somewhat ok, but my uncle is a smelly fatso and I decided to stop going to their birthdays because of the smoke.

Ack. Too much ranting.

EDIT: Two nice NDS games came out. (And with that I also saw the news of nintendo having blocked the R4 and other flash carts for the new DS >.> Not like I was gonna buy it anyway.)

Anyway, the games:

The first one looks fun and IS fun.
The second one looks fun and is HOPEFULLY gonna be fun, unlike the other MySims NDS game.

Yeah Pirates! That will be fun! For me, my carries will be all 'Oh no pirates!'
Well all but one.

You say="Aw, I'll hit someone else then!"
You hit CharDesc2 he/she blocks it with their shield.
You say="*jumps around with glee* Weeeeeeeee! That was fun!
You hit CharDesc and do 50 percent damage with your bone knife.
You say= "Hey that looks like fun! *looks at pirate* Can I play?

At least he would if he exsisted yet. I'm afraid to spawn him he may not last long. :lol:

Edit: I spawned him and boy did he spawn in a lame area for him. Okay I'm thinking what to do but they seem to be very bad rp to me, almost random. What to do? What to do?
