From this I'm going to assume you were joking about being short... 5'7 isn't that short, unless everyone you know is pretty tall, and 5'11 isn't short at all.

I'm 166cm or 180cm.

None taken Kall.

I am about 6' 1" or 6' 2".

Also, I saw a picture of my friends baby raccoons today. They were so cute!

That's it, Sleet? I imagined you taller than that...

Aquablast · Post by **Aquablast** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:02 pm

I am about 5'5" or 168cm. Which is average for an Asian, but short compared to a Westerner!

The good: I have tomorrow off.
The bad: I'm still sick and I'll be at a job fair instead of resting.

What's a job fair?

Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:39 pm

Shoe size: 10 1/2 to 11
Weight: 210 lbs.
height: about 5'10

and in case Sleet's answer is giving anyone trouble, a conversion site

and unless I'm wrong, a job fair is a place you go full of companies looking to hire. it's useful if you need a job.

I just ate a lot of ice cream :3
I'm 1.76 m tall and a weight of 85 kg.
Metric ;3

ResTheRabbit · Post by **ResTheRabbit** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:43 am

As short as I am... I'm even lighter than I should be for my size. I'm 116 pounds at the most. Just about everything on me is small... my hands, my height, my shoe size, my weight... but I like to think that Bruce Lee was the same way. ;3

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:46 am

182 cm is my height in metric, and 70kg or 156 lbs. is my weight. I am only a little above the norm.

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:49 am

WHY ARE WE USING METRIC.
It's like talking in Spanish.

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:53 am

Which you have done before, If I recall correctly, Housedog.

And metric makes it easier for the international forumites, of which there are many.

Post by **Dissension** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:53 am

It really is. x3

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:54 am

To be fair, I translated.
And most of us forumites are American.

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:58 am

I'm not. :3 Well, I am, but not for the purposes of this conversation.

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:02 am

Alex M., Shadowhaz, Jopen, YingBlanc, Kyderra, Medli, Tobee, Coatl_Ruu, Karlos, Valerio, Stu, Aaron, Andrea do I need to go on?

There are enough foreign forumites for it to be a good idea to use metric.

A fair number of the regular Chatters are up there, you'll notice.

Anywho, do you know what is going to be at that job fair, Housedog?

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:06 am

But none of them are talking right now, are they?

McDonalds. It's a freakin' McDonalds job fair.

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:10 am

So you didn't get the Chick Fil A job? I'm sorry to hear that.

Hey, a lot of successful people started at McDonald's. *snrk*

Yes, but they will look at this in the morning and have to do conversions to get it...

Talking, yes. Writing, no. Well, maybe except this paragraph.

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:34 am

McDonald's is no worse than any other fast food job.

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:42 am

I wish I could have worked in a fast food joint when I was in high school. My awful sinuses make it impossible for me to work in the food service industry, so I didn't get a job until I was 19. It was front desk at a dog grooming business. I loved it...

ResTheRabbit · Post by **ResTheRabbit** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:59 am

The first job I has was working with kids as an aftercare worker... I couldn't figure out why they called me mister, and then I realized I was at least 10 years over them. The food industry was never my cup of tea. I like electronics a lot though.

jopencjusz · Post by **jopencjusz** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:01 am

I'm 174 cm tall (5,7) and a weight about 90 kg (198 lbs), so I'm short and rather well-built

I wish I could find a job when I'll start looking for it, cause I need to earn money to pay for my flat.

Morning all, how are your day? I'm leaving for my lectures in about 15-20 minutes

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:03 am

Hey there Jopen. What lectures are on the docket for today?

jopencjusz · Post by **jopencjusz** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:08 am

Modern Polish History. Very borring cause the guy is talking all time about one thing.

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:17 am

I am sure it is an important thing, then. Oh well, history is usually boring to people. I am the only person I know IRL that actually likes it.

jopencjusz · Post by **jopencjusz** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:21 am

I like history, too, but this guy can't tell anything interesting about it.

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:22 am

I like history.
I'm just no good at those miniature details that make me almost fail my tests.
Boy do I wish I could sleep.

copper · Post by **copper** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:23 am

One of those guys, huh? Too bad. Hope you can muddle through it alright. Anything else interesting happening today?

You know, today is supposedly an evil day.

Who needs sleep.. *passes out from lack of sleep*

Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:59 am

History is my second least favorite subject. after a certain point, you're learning things you'll never have reason to know in a situation in which you can't look it up online. Literature is worse. never will I use an in depth analysis of the morality of Dorian Gray.

Both the subjects aren't designed for application, but personal growth that leads to breakthroughs in the applicable sciences and other subjects. So they're important, just not exteriorly. Just like some maths are designed to teach you to think logically but can be used in real life situations to solve problems in a previously unknown way. I can't say I like history all that much for the dates to remember, but I love the little interesting quirks I learn about in the documentaries and such... mostly through the History channel.

Yeah, I also hope that I could muddle through it. Anything else ..... I've got my P.E. so there'll be again more than hour of playing basketball

Well, I don't know, but I've got yesterday evil day, so I think it's almost impossible that today could be worst.

Box O Lions wrote:I can't say I like history all that much for the dates to remember

And this is what I can't understand, why they learn us dates. Alphabet was invented to write this kind of things, to not remember them and if you want, you can always check them. I know sequence of events, but I can't remember most of dates. It's almost same like with geography and that I need to learn where are some things like lakes, peaks and this kind stuff, about which you will never hear again, but you need to put it on the map. We invented cartography to not need to learn it and check when we need to know where exactly it is.

I. LOVE. HISTORY. How can you not love looking back into the past and learning? My current subjects in order of how much i enjoy them:
1. European History
2. Chemistry
3. Pre Calculus
4. Spanish
5. English

jopencjusz · Post by **jopencjusz** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 6:23 am

I love history, that's why I'm studying it

I just don't like some parts of it and what I need to learn

Hey look! We have an almost-identical class schedule!
Change Spanish to French, change European History to Civics & Economics, and add in some Algebra 2, Biomedical Technology, and Peer Tutoring, and you have my classes for this year.

Hey all just been to the dentist for my first filling and I must say it felt weird yet cool

Don't be. If your state testing is anything like my state testing, it'll be easy.
