JC may be lazy but he was on the ball cutting off that last thread.

Hence why I get paid the big bucks

 

[Shakey Rustie]

Damn Romang that's a nice ride, girl must be crazy.

 

[JC Numminen]

It was kind of warm out there today.

 

[LadyJet26]

It was. Was great. Got a new phone. Quite enjoying my Samsung s5

It's terrific. I love mine. In a couple of years the iPhone 7 will be almost as good.

 

[Sweech]

Romang my man, it's a very easy problem to fix.

You're just not giving away enough free candy.

 

[LadyJet26]

I also have an interview this morning. And will be having a nap before work this evening. Thank god I only have a 4 hour shift

 

[Romang67]

I'm taking the TOEFL tomorrow. It's a test to show colleges that I'm proficient in English and will be able to handle studying in English.

It doesn't feel like a waste at all to pay $180 for that test.

You still have to do TOEFL? Seriously? After living more than a year in the States?


poor you, especially considering the amount of money. That's a joke, you'll finish it in 10 minutes probably.


For others if you don't know TOEFL: It's a very common test in Europe when you want to do a semester abroad in NA or Australia or England. It's actually not that easy but it will be a piece of cake for someone already living in an english speaking environment for so much time.

After more than a year in the states, two classes at a community college (where I aced the English proficiency test I had to take) and scoring in the top 15 percentile on both the SAT reading and writing. Yes.

Believe it or not, but I'm not actually that worried!

 

[GJF]

I mean, again for comparison, I know teenagers in Germany that took it at the age of 16


Okay they obviously want to earn 180 bucks and that's it.

 

[Romang67]

To be fair, the school I'm most interested in right now doesn't demand that I take it. But some schools do, and obviously I want to keep my options open.

Honestly, I don't even get the point. If you're stupid enough to go to college and take classes when you won't be able to understand what they are teaching, then maybe you deserve to lose the money you put into it?

 

[Romang67]

Double post, so I'm changing this one.

Damn Romang that's a nice ride, girl must be crazy.

I know! She pretty much freaked out when I asked her a favor to move my couch into the van as well. I really don't get it...

 

[Mathmew Purrrr Oh]

it rubs the lotion on its skin

Way back in the dark ages (late 1980s) I was applying to grad school in the U.S. As a requirement for all of the schools I was applying to (requirements varied by school) I had to take the TOEFL. I'd lived in English speaking Canada all my life.

So being a resident of Sweden or Germany is like being from a foreign planet for American universities, never mind Canada, which is just a foreign country.

They made you take the TOEFL in Canada?

Students from Quebec or New Brunswick are usually made to take the TOEFL in the US. Ridiculous, but true.

I feel much more okay with having to take the TOEFL all of a sudden!

Nah, that wasn't me. Making the grumpy cat meme means that you use technology, which means that I can't do it.

Also, LadyJet is always grumpy.
