I get 40 minute lunches. I'm at highschool, mind you, but last year they switched it to 20 minute lunches and we more or less revolted. So, back to 40 minutes.

"TheGoodhearted" is a cool username, I guess.
Long, angry rants about a user who want to marry another boy being a sex-crazed child-rapist, too, I guess.

"Brother", replied the second monk.



Edit: Whoa! Soul Nomad & The World Eaters costs so, so much now.
And there isn't much Disgaea 4 DLC in my region.

@Drathi: I'm sorry if this is harsh, I don't want to be mean or anything, but the idea that you are "in school 24/7" is utterly laughable. Anyone on this forum who has attended a university will tell you that. Certainly it can be hard to eat between classes if you have a serious block of courses with no break between, as I've had in the past, but for the love of God, bring something and eat it during class. Every meal doesn't have to be a sit down, candle lit affair. You dont have class at 10 PM, prepare a sandwich and bring it with you the next day. You have a lot more time than you think. College schedules can be hectic, and more complicated than full time work, despite usually requiring less time, but you can make it work. If I can commute for an hour at the start and finish of each day, attend all my courses, work part-time, and still find time to eat while still achieving high marks, you can manage to eat more than once a day. Methinks you're being a bit melodramatic.

If the money is actually a huge problem for you then you REALLY should make time to cook/prepare your own meals. That said, is there a real reason why you are on a meal plan? I think you live in housing, but housing/meal plans in the U.S tend to be massive rip offs. I live in a pretty expensive city, and its still cheaper for me to live off campus than it is to live/eat on campus. I have had friends whose parents wouldn't fund their education unless they lived in housing, which I always found silly, but is there a real reason why you don't make your own food?

I agree Drathi. I have no doubt about how full your schedule is. I've been there and done that. Seriously, though, there must be a way for you to get a proper meal in.

Does your housing allow you cooking equipement? If it does I recommend purchasing a George Foreman and a crockpot. Then cook your meals the night before. All meals for a foreman are quick and easy, crockpots are nice because you can throw things in that morning and by the time you come home, it's done. (I swear, barbeque chicken is best cooked in a crockpot anyways :3 but that's just me)

Also, don't be afraid to start looking up cold foods for lunches.

My sister is on a hectic schedule for her own uni and then running off to a full time job. She makes her food the night before so that all she needs to do is heat it up while she's getting ready for work and is able to scarf it down before heading out the door again - and all her meals are like this healthy shit.... :\ She once fixed this macaroni salad combination with this shrimp. My GOD it looked good.

You just need to sit back and think things through. And don't be afraid to throw a sandwhich in your bag once in a while. She's done this, too.

Me: I enjoy ham sandwhiches. It was no sweat packing one of those and throwing it into my bag. I even had a habit of chowing down on it while I was heading off to my next class. Take a few bites before one class and then finished it up after class let out. *shrugs* Sometimes a cold lunch is just better than no lunch at all.

Room and board were billed separately at my university.

On a different subject: I had two people DC on me in Blood Bowl today. Which, while numerically advantageous to myself, is really boring.

[zamisk]

I think it's safe to say if I had seen the person who lobbed a piss-soaked wad of toilet paper over my bathroom stall wall and on to my head, he would have had as miserable of a day as I did. Maybe more so.

Do you think they knew you were in there, Zamisk? Either that or they are an immature destructive twat. Perhaps a little of column A and a little of column B. :/

Rant #1: Well, nothing in comparison to my beloved Zamikens, but it is unfortunate that my body always insists on waking up around midnight. It does not matter how tired I am or how few hours I have slept, I awaken and aside from training I have no purpose for being up.

Rant #2: Good complexion -> nothing as little a zit for almost a year -> hell breaks out on my face a week before I am supposed to show up for some Remembrance Day ceremony


To be fair, at least #2 makes sense. I ate a little Halloween candy and that is the only thing I can think of which could cause this. Thankfully with some persistence I should have it cleared up in time.

[Reynard-Miri]

Well I'm apparently not registered to vote even though a guy who I signed a petition for basically said I was. Fuck.

[negzee]

Can you not register at your polling station?

[Reynard-Miri]

I have no idea. Last (and the first) time I voted I used an absentee ballot.

edit: Nope. Deadline to register was October 22.

^ You know, you have a beard now. They'll let you vote.
