Hey Snoop... There is no such Race of SnoopIans
Its a known Chuck Norris Fact: #54. There are no races, only countries of people Chuck Norris has beaten to different shades of black and blue.
Also: #186. Chuck Norris destoryed the periodic table, because the only element he believes in is the element of surprise.
So watch your back

So watch your back
did you know that dinosaurs became extinct because of the Chuck Norrisaurus?
There is no theory of evolution, just a list of creatures Chuck Norris allows to live.
Chuck Norris doesn’t wash his clothes, he disembowels them.
Before sliced bread, people used to say "Thats the greatest thing since Chuck Norris". But Chuck Norris was displeased by this. So he roundhouse kicked a loaf of bread into slices.
and finally, the most amazing fact:
Chuck Norris can sneeze with his eyes open.
Roma then, but mind the tourists. Thing is; at least in Rome you can escape the tourists. In smaller towns like Firenze it's virtually impossible. You'll get annoyed by it very fast. On a more insider's note: Padova near Venice is supposed to be a great student town. Some classmates of mine did their Erasmus there and loved it.
I'm still a bit drowsy so I didn't quite follow the discussion a few pages back but if I remember correctly, somebody was defending the European media?
Lemme tell you a little story that happened a few months ago:
A German news station sent a crew down to a high school in East Berlin (sorry, just Berlin I guess) because it was alledgedly a teacher's worst nightmare. In the report they made (I saw it cause they wouldn't shut up promoting it), it became quite clear this high school was the epitome of anarchy. The students (mostly of Moroccan descent and Muslim - this is where it gets juicy) ran the place, teachers had nothing to say. They didn't go to classes, they just hung out in the school yard doing nothing. They terrorised the neighbourhood and teachers alike; the hierarchy that had formed on that school resembled that of a prison etc etc
Germany was shocked, the political class vowed to take action against 'the immigrant problem' and racial tensions rised.
A few weeks later a Dutch camera crew went to have a look to see how big the problems really were and if it could spread through Europe (like we feared the French riots could). When the Netwerk crew arrived, they found a relatively normal school. Sure it was in a poor neighbourhood and the teaching materials were a bit disappointing, but anarchy wasn't exactly the right word to describe it. Upon doing some investigating, students made some surprising comments they were willing to make to a foreign TV station: the German journalists a few weeks earlier had offered them vast amounts of money to drill up some lines and play a few scenes. The kids, being poor as they are in that part of town, of course took it. What did they have to lose? It's not like their reputation was anything worth to write home about anyway.
And that, is how the media work.

From Wikipedia:
Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus (also Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam and Desiderius Erasmus Cox) (October 27, probably 1466 – July 12, 1536) was a Dutch humanist and theologian. Erasmus was a classical scholar who wrote in a "pure" Latin style.
Erasmus was influential on Martin Luther who admired him and desired his friendship.
He prepared new Latin and Greek editions of the New Testament. Erasmus wrote The Praise of Folly, Handbook of a Christian Knight, and On Civility in Children.

i think it's a study program that allows students to study for a year or two in universities abroad.. I'm not exactly sure how it works, but i saw a film about a french student who went on this Erasmus programme and studied in Barcelona. because i don't exactly know french, i didn't get all the details down

Don't you guys in the US have this kind of agreements? we have some US students studying in Belgium on an exchange program.
Studying abroad for one year is a huge plus, IMO
yeah i also got a kind of a crave to go study in Barcelona i must admit. especially after the hot room-mate thing
from what i know there are some British universities which offer a year abroad, helps also if you're looking to work in some international organization, you have a greater oversight of how different cultures function. I was thinking of going to Italy for a year.
P.S. I've been to Belgium various times, i love Brussels, which part are you from? (also had a female Belgian french teacher)
