To my parents: Happy 25th anniversary!! :D I wouldn't even know if my grandmother hadn't told me, since my parents are nonchalant about it.

Ooh, congrats to your parents!

1. NO SKIPPING CLASSES.
:'DDD I do this too. Shame on us :'D (okay, pretty much everyone does it, I think XD;) Like--- more than I probs should. Well actually I didn't skip THAT many classes last year, just a few when I was having a really bad day as far as social things go.

Are you taking sociology? I've sort of thought about taking it as my second minor. My first plan when I started uni was to minor in kielitiede, but--- it's just so--- I don't know. I struggle with it and find it pretty dull most of the time. :'D;; (not to mention how their classes ALWAYS overlap with something else I have. Clearly they don't even want me there! 8D)

Thanks! :D

XDD Yes, I know that everyone does it, but I really don't want to do it, if it's unnecessary, because it affects my studies on a whole. I've also been getting better at not skipping classes. But I still have a long way to go. XDD Ganbare, us!!

Yeah. :D I thought sociology sounded interesting. :D I've also done psychology in summer uni, but I'm not sure if it will qualify as a minor(even if I get 25 points). For now my plan is to get through the basic courses of sociology(though I wouldn't mind taking more, IF I need them). Linguistics? Ewwww~~~Of course if one finds it interesting, that's another question. (classes always overlap!! one reason why I haven't been taking as much as I want to... though it might be a good thing in the long run). So... Korean is your minor...I guess you're taking 60p worth of courses?? (Though you wouldn't necessarily need another minor, then...)

Well I'm looking for another minor next to anthro, since I'd rather have two minors rather than just one. I-- just haven't decided on what to take yet, ahaha. XD;; I've sort of meddled around for now. I'm trying to push myself to finish linguistics since I already have some courses in it, but as I said it really doesn't interest me that much. Korean is just my so called "minor language", hahah. :'D It's not required (I think? I'm really confused as far as required courses go XD;), and I'm just taking it for fun. Although I don't know if I'm taking it this year since it's so much work and I could try fitting in other courses instead of it... aaaaah! Decisions, decisions!

Aaah... I've so misunderstood everything! XDD So, Korean would be part of your "additional courses"? XDD (I'd love to take Japanese like that.. maybe later, when there are no more courses in the language centre, but I doubt it's possible.) But you could take it as a minor??
Hmm.. wait is there just "anthropology" or do you mean "social and cultural anthropology"? One of those courses is part of sociology as well. :D
How much do you have left of linguistics? How much have you taken of anthropology? Heh, it would be cool if you could start sociology with me. XDD (I'm guessing that courses would overlap, though). There are very few courses that are actual lessons/lectures. Most are self-study (and there's one internet course).
And yeah.. there are SO many difficult decisions to be made. WHY is uni so.. free? XD

Aww~ that's cute. Wish them happy (belated) anniversary for me! \^o^/

Those goals are good! *hugs* Don't be too hard on yourself though-- and it might be good to take time away from studies (when there is some time to do so) and run! :D Then you can take a break from it while still being productive :) And you're right-- it is good for your mental health, not just physical. :D
Good luck with all of your goals! You can do it! \^o^/

You know, I might look at his dives sometime soon... and he is pretty cute in those pics xD

Thank you!! :D

The goals are necessary! :D And, thanks. :D *hugs* (but as you know: I ´have to be hard on myself ;) )Actually I thought I'd run early in the morning on school days, because 1. It gives me a good start and 2. Since I'll be spending all day at school I wouldn't have the energy to run in the evening. That's pretty much what has happened the past few years. *nods* A very big part is the liberating feeling while knowing that I'm doing something and it gives the mental energy to get through everything. :D (Manage to do more, because I’m already doing something. :D)

You should!! They're awesome!! Especially the last one. (Got to love his AND the audience's reaction ;) ) It's mainly his demeanour and character that's so adorable, but he's cute on a more superficial level as well. XDD

Okay, I understand-- you can be hard on yourself, just don't let it bring you down :) *hugs back*
That's a good idea (running early in the mornings.) As long as you can get up early enough. (I'd run in the morning too... but I can't wake up that early.)

Haha, yeah, his demeanor is cute in those pics... and I kind of remember watching some of his dives on TV. I'll check out that link though ;P

And... I just wanted to say...
I FOUND YOU ON SPARKPEOPLE!!! \^o^/ YAY! *hugs and dances*

XDD Thanks. :D I'll try to be reasonable when it comes to my goals (and rules). :D
The getting up early is what's so hard! XDD I'm trying to adjust to it, but so far I haven't managed to go running early( but during the day) although I HAVE been getting up early.

Yeah... it does show there, doesn't it? :D Ah! You haven't watched it yet! WATCH it! XDDD I actually didn't start paying attention to Matthew Mitcham before the 10m platform, though I'd watched the 3m springboard and read about him(but had totally forgotten) before. :D I often just watch diving without thinking of the specific people. :D

YAY!!! I added you as well!!! :D
What now?? I seriously don't know how to get round the site or utilise it like I probably should..
