It is nice to dream
I'll see what happens, I think he's too shy to come talk to me so I'll have to take initiative this time. Usually I just give some hints and wait for the guy to come talk to me

In my country we don't need strikes, as our railway does a bad job of showing up in time. *#*#* ^|^.

When I was in Leidschendam I had to take the tram to get to the meeting. I couldn't find any trams so I asked someone, and he told me there was a strike that day
Just my luck.

Enjoy your weekend. I always have a bit of a festival-feeling on fridays, althought today my ever present feeling of the blues is strong. :cool

Thanks, I will. Fridays are hard for me, I usually can't focus long enough to get any of the serious work done. So I usually save administrative and 'dumb' jobs (like taking photocopies) for friday.
I hope you'll shake of those blues soon and have a great weekend as well

As a teacher myself, I believe it is up to us to insure that students learn. It is our responsibility to see to it that students understand completely. It's one of the reasons I left the US academic arena. In my classes, students had to score 80% or better to pass a test. If they didn't, they could re-take the test, but had to score 100% on the retest to pass. They already knew the questions and answers. All they had to do was study them. How hard is that?  |
Now if only all teachers would think like you. Most of my teachers were pretty bad, and they didn't really care about our grades. Teaching was just a job for them. You need teachers who think teaching is a calling.

You have never experienced pain until you've been forced to walk 4 kilometers in killer heels. Trust me, I've been there.
