NO TIME! NO TIME!
I know... I know.... You haven't heard from me in a long time. What to do, lots of work and no t enough time. This second year isn't what people said it would be, where are the beaches, where's the sunshine, the free time on the grass... WHERE G-D, WHERE?! Oh I know, they all disappeared when C came along.
Anyways, I didn't feel like writing anything here, for the simple reason that I knew exactly what would come out if I started writing... Whining, and more whining, and then a little more whining... about how much homework they're giving us, about the way MATAP, which is supposed to be an fly through course suddenly decided to get a little more serious... Maybe about how Discrete Math has gone crazy, with quizzes every 2 weeks, who do they think they are? INFI?!
Some of you might be thinking this at this exact moment: "Oh, when you say that, it sounds to me like - Oyoyoyoyoyoyoy!"
See? See? That's why I didn't post anything new for more than a month. It has nothing to do with the fact they stopped paying me.... really...
Well, here are a few things that I hope make you laugh, or smile, or at least stop crying:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy.
The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling
Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.
Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w"with "v".
