i have gotten a rather brutal english teacher for this 5 weeks, which i am in the middle of.
four papers in five weeks. not too bad. until one counts up the annotated bibliographies for each paper. the rough drafts. the peer reviews. the formatting from hell. the quizzes on each chapter(7 so far). i have spent about 15 hours each on each of the first two papers. however, i know that this is merely preparation for the upper level classes i start taking in the fall. but this class will be a C. that sucks, but the torture will soon be over. that's what they keep telling me, anyway...
it's a great thing that my german class is the first class of the day, or i'd never make it to english at all.
i had hoped to be able to use the schools swimming pool after class, but not this five weeks, as i have no time.

If you cannot Debauch because you get an IP blacklist error, try Debauching again time. It may work immediately, it may take a few attempts. It will work eventually, I don't think I had to click debauch more than three times. Someone is overzealous at our hosting company, but only on the first couple of attempts.
If you have problems logging in, posting, or doing anything else, please get in touch.
You know the email (if you don't, see in the registration info below), you know where to find the Administerrerrerr on the Midget Circus.
Some unpleasant miscreant was firing incessant database queries at our server, which forced the Legal Department of our hosting company, via their Abuse subdivision, to shut us down. No I have none.
All I can do it button the hatches, and tighten up a few things. Such as time limits on how long you may take to compose a post and hit Debauch! As of 24/01/10, I've set that at 30 minutes for now.
To restrict further overloads, any unregistered users had to be locked out.

Is that annoying?
Yes. But there's only so much the Administerrerrerr can do to keep this place running.
Again, if you have any problems: get in touch.

First fix:
Because the board got shutdown again because of a load of database, I had to fettle with the settings again.
As part of that, the server no longer stores what topics you have or haven't read.
IT IS STILL RECORDED!
But now, that information lives in a delicious cookie, rather than the forum database.
Upside: this should reduce the load of database.
Downside: if you use multiple devices to access the board, or you reject delicious cookies, you won't always have that information cookie. But the New Posts feature should take care of that.
PLEASE NOTIFY THE ADMINISTERRERRERR ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS!
- open the menu at the top
- hit New Posts to see what's actually new and browse the new stuff from there
- go back to the Forum Index
- open the menu at the top again
- click Mark forums read
this will zero the unread anything for you, so you can strive forth into the exciting world of the new cookie thing.

Oh, that's right -- THAT'S why I hated school.
And you gotta pay for the privilege of being shat upon.
Blech. My condolences. The Paper is nice and opens lots of doors, but it's a right miserable pain in the arse while getting it.

after this summer, i will only have three more core classes: one more polisci, one more biology, and one more math. i think i will save the last two for last...
but on the plus side, if i keep up the grades in german this summer, by august i will have a certificate of proficiency in it that i can put on my resume.
and the fall classes i am hoping will be fun, although i know they will be hard.

Aaaaahhhh. The pain of the bibliography. The best part is that once you've got them down pat, you go to work for someone else who wants them formatted in a completely different way. 
Sorry to hear about the lack of pool time. Don't forget that a small amount of pool time might keep you relaxed enough to work more efficiently than without it.

Keep the faith. A very good buddy of mine just finished his law degree. Suffering 3 years in a crappy little town on the opposite side of the country from his adopted home and all his friends. It's all for the better in the end.

<s>i have no effing clue what my grade in english ended up as and i may not know for another week.</s> B in english. <s> passed the german class though.</s> A in german.
this five weeks i am doing biology lab with the next german class.
i will try not to blow up the building. or get myself hurt(which is more likely).
and in my head i am planning to study in europe next summer, so as to avoid this miserable heat.
