Here we go. Somebody started questioning the real intentions of a Pep Rally. The American High School way of enhancing competition with opponent schools. Most of the time this leads to rivalry and kids getting in a drunk fight over some cheerleader. Oops, I must have slipped into some sort of cliques prejudice (Follow this link and you will “experience” one of my blog’s most wanted entry of all time).
See this comic by xkcd.com how the Kindom High Schoolia falls apart:
Sorry for this insider post, but you know, special occaisons call for special methods. Miki – my high school sand box drinking buddy – is turning 20 today just a couple of days before I do. Instead of freaking out because of leaving my teenage years behind, I created something. Something special.
Now, I guess it’s time to cry out loud “Tuh, duhhhhh” in a very Joker kind of fashion. On this special occaison – your birthday that is – I’d love to present this awesome gift that will soon be given to yaa, Miki…
Sometimes, only sometimes I feel like high school wasn’t that bad after all. There were several eloquent discussions that I now have to hold on Facebook. See? It’s a good thing to get involved in status updates, because practice proofs that results have ultimate potential to be funny in the end.
Who’s attending Sandra’s Christmas [...] gig thingy? December 21. 0600 pm. At the Cenario (Tiefer Graben 21, Vienna). Unfortunately there might be a appointment collision because my auntie has a Gluehwein party that day. We’ll see.
The internet can be a real bitchdistraction when you want to focus on things, like studying. This weeks motto was – as my twitter status tells you:
When you try and try and it’s never going to be enough, it’s either Oprah Winfrey dealing with relationships, or generally exam week.
Anyway, fact is, I found the homepage of my former art class teacher, who used to upload “artistically valuable” material students had produced in class. Right, and I was one of these wizz-kids who is famous for having a talent inside that never was recognized by the wide Austrian population. Sad moment, there.
When it comes to the point in life where you have to leave the nest-warmth radiating life as a high school student (with teachers kicking your butt in case you don’t get the necessary things done) -- well I actually was enjoying the non-contradictable “life” (nice way of putting it) as a community servant, remember? -- and jump into the big pond of university, it’s all aboutorganization, people,organization.
Me being wissensdurstig
I most certainly have to get some things done (and it’s really alienating to know that nobody is going to kick my ass if I didn’t). Bearing that in mind, I know that nobody will kick my l-a-z-y ass (spelled the wrong word, didn’t I?). Picking a schedule, getting the apartment ready and some paper work.
However, I’m ready. I can totally take it. I have “wissensdurst” (thirst for knowledge). On the left, you can see my eager-on-studying grimace thatemblazons my WU student ID. After taking 2 pictures I figured that nobody has to see my student ID. Which makes me wonder why I post this on the world wide web.
You did the figuring out: I signed up for classes at the WU going for a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in International Business Administration (followed by a Master of Science -- MSc; no MBA offered at a university in Austria except for the ones where you pay a boogie-load of tuition).
So that’s it for today. Keep in mind: Organization.
Just about now, actually. Signing up for university courses is on my agenda with high priority, I’ll just wait for the summer to go on vacation for a day or so because I don’t want to miss any of the good weather Austria is being blessed and treated with at the moment.
Lieber Reader, when will you realize that Vienna is waiting for you? Maybe I can induce this desire with my upcoming Vienna tour guide. Planning on spending a weekend in Vienna? Well, I happen to have a good tour guide competence and experience.
I wonder whereBusiness Administration studentsare depicted in this comic (outer right, I guesstimate), because as it is now, it is the branch (International Business Administration) I’ll pick most likely – 70% and gaining… After the jump, you’ll find out how my mini orientation went!
American teenage subcultures are featured in the majority of American teenage movies. As a result, teenage movies are loaded with stereotypes. We’ve seen American Pie, we’ve watched Mean Girls and most Europeans love to watch American TV productions. You name them. Shows and movies dealing with teenage troubles automatically are set in a world that is divided into social groups, the so-called cliques.
