Title: A little 411
Post by: Efflixi Aduro on October 25, 2004, 01:00:41 am
As some of you may have noticed, I have been gone for about two weeks now.  My dad thinks I decided to be a bad student all of a sudden so he took away my cable modem.  Im not getting it back till all my grades are higher than \"C\'s\" so I might be gone for a while considering I have a \"D\" :(.  I got it back for like 3 days for a project but I\'ll be gone again soon.  So don\'t think ol\' fes ran off on you ;).

Furthurmore, wheres Zeraph\'s happy b-day thread? Didn\'t any of you notice it way his B-day on the 16th?  Happy 18th Birthday Zeraph! :)

Wow, you are lucky. Here we go from a \"C\" to an \"F\"...yea F=Failure.

I wish I got a good connection for my grades...all \"A\"s should deserve a damn good connection. :P

Btw, I didn\'t notice you were gone, sorry. I just don\'t notice anything, really.

Maybe people thought you were just unresponsive.

Don\'t feel bad about getting a \"D\". I got an F recently (4.0 grade scale. Anything below 70 is an F, I had a 68.), but I didn\'t get anything taken away because I pay for it all, even my house. :P

Bleh, good luck with getting your connection back.
Had something like that few months ago, but it actually motivated me and got my grades up :P

You\'re right they can\'t, so why don\'t you try and get that.  :P :D   I love playing with words.

Well, if you have straight A\'s, the only way to improve your grades is by taking *more and harder courses* :)

I didn\'t see this thread, (I usually do not visit the The Hydlaa Plaza on a regular basis)

But anyway Thanks Efflixi Aduro so noticing. I\'m 18 now & after I finish testing CB I think I\'ll sign up to be a Dev. right now I\'m figuring out how to correctly export stuff in Cal3D according to the art in CB, I can\'t tell you more however because of the NDA but I will try to find bugs helping the Dev\'s to exterminate them. :D

As for my schooling, I\'m sort of an A student or but I used to get some D\'s in spelling but hey that\'s why ppl invented spell-checker right? If your looking for a nice open-source spell-checker for FireFox then check this out: http://www.pro-networks.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=37943
(I just got FireFox today & it\'s much much nicer then IE, It only takes up about 1MB mem per page (when minimized) instead of the IE 5MB+ per page)

Yeah I get told I could do better when I get the equivilant of A\'s and B\'s but at my school they are E\'s and M\'s because we have that stupid NCEA crap

Post by: fireofsoul on October 26, 2004, 05:17:43 am
Ncea is to teacher orientated 0-0, if the teacher is happy Merit or Excellence(spelling?)

I used to get all A\'s and B\'s until I finally got fed up with my parents fussing about the one B, and completely ignoring the A\'s...That\'s when I quit trying altogether...ended up with a nice 3 in chemistry...you know...like 3/100...1 point away from the record....I knew I shouldn\'t have taken that test -_-
Coulda gotten the record....
