You live with four girls?

That's the only relevant part of that post.

Mhm.

Yeah Martin, give us more info about it.

The info is that our house is a mess because noone cares enough to keep it clean. Which drives me up the wall. Of course I'm guilty too but people always like to blame others. And I do happen to think they are messier.

Another fact is that when you observe other people's bad habits up close there is little left in the way of enjoying their presence.

Wait, are they your sisters or?

Yeah that's exactly what I'm interested in. I have no idea what I'd do with the degree though.

No, I have principles and itegrity, there's a difference. I'm not saying you shouldn't with the way the world is no longer a meritocracy, I just saying that on an ethical level it is rather execrable. How would you feel if someone who may be less qualified got than internship over you because of who they know?

I'm not trying to get into anything, I like your way of thinking from that post but I'm just being honest, I amn't going to go for internships in the Department of Foreign Affairs or a security analysis firm because I'd know I hadn't earned it.

I am not going to get preferential treatement because of my father, he can just get my application to the right people in the dept that i would be interested in going to, which would be the media and pr dept so i could meet as many people as i could in the vocation as i could. After that its down to me, my cv and my interview to get it. I think i would know from doing that, that i had earned it. I have principles and integrity aswell, my dad is fairly well off and so i my mum and i could live for free off hand outs from them, but i chose to work the summer doing 14 hours shifts 5 days a week in a pizza hut on a motorway so that i could take my gf on holiday and pay my way through uni as much as i could. Which is a hell of a lot more than i can say for some people i know.

Shouldn't it be the other way around?

Depends what but this one's really good. Mine is 1500e/year. It's kinda expensive knowing our financial situation but even public schools reached more than 1k euros a year. It's not a huge difference anymore, at least not here.

I don't buy that, or even better, I think it's just a nonsense. When you go on a private you get to know better your stuff, it's not really harder to get a job. People say that because everybody's getting fired now and it's hard to find a job without strong connections but they shouldn't mix it with private schools. Porsche Holding in Belgrade has 95% of their people with private schools so it's not really an issue.

Wow, Dule, that's not really expensive. Public schools here also cost around 1000€, perhaps a little less. But the private ones are 3,4 times more expensive.

Personally, I would never go to a private school because they're so expensive here, but if it was for your price....heck, I'd seriously reconsider college again.

No.

That's a complete myth. I've lived with maybe 20-30 people in the last few years and the most organized ones were guys. The messiest ones were girls.

One person here is so in denial about this it's not even funny, giving me idiotic speculation about how she thinks girls are cleaner. Zero facts to support that.

Really? I would never say so...in my experience anyways. I'm a complete slob and so are my friends, but all my (girl)friends were almost always neat. Heck I even invite some of them to my beach house just so I wouldn't have to clean the place up when my parents come.

But these are balkan girls after all.

true..great sunny day in here too, just changed my air and polen filter at my car..and now i'm chillin' a bit. How is your day adrian, dusan, martin, sheik ?

So far so good. Just woke up too early though. Woke up at 12pm, need to be at work at 8, and work till 5am. I'm gonna be one sleepy bitch when that happens.

 

[IrishZebra]

Yeah that's exactly what I'm interested in. I have no idea what I'd do with the degree though.

It's actually a pretty diverse degree employment wise, Obviously its a BA not a BSC but the stigma very much does not apply here, Bsc Politics student end up 90% in statistical analysis because of the way that they are taught, after all Politics is an art form not a Science, as is Law etc.

My course has an 80% first year post degree employment rate ( in sector jobs not just Mc Ds)
with a further 5% further education.

You can do any sort of analysis jobs with the degree, maybe not as well as the Scientists but I'm not going to pay them any heed (theres a fair bit of rivalry between us in the Law and Government schoo) You can also work for NGO's TNCs doing international work or Government/Supra-state roganisations such as the UN and the EU.

Also if you go down the Security Analysis route like I hope to with a masters in International Conflict Resolution, its an exploding sector at the moment and the demand for young bi-lingual people has led to ridiculous levels of headhunting and quite good slaraies (around 45K incremental with the increments being something like 10% which is six figures after 9 years!)

The data is from a Professor of mine btw.

You have a beach house?

Anyway, there's a big difference in how people run their homes. If it's your own place you tend to care and keep it neat. I've seen this a lot and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with age or other things. But if you share with other people, and especially just random people who happened to get a room in the same house, it's gonna be a mess. Noone feels responsible for a shared space. And you have to hound people to clean up after themselves. Which they would do if it was their own place.

^^^ liking the dawkins quote zebra.

Out of interest by autotune do you mean the pitch harmonisers that the vast majority of pop singers use, or the guitars, amongst other instruements, that can now tune themselves?

 

[Dostoevsky]

No.

Ok then we can ask for their pictures.

I know, it's strange...the difference is not much so I'd prefer to go here. Girls are hot too. (ja idem sa drugim smerovima, medija i kulture, a tamo picki kol'ko oces ). It's a first private college out here and it's really good, they have loads of cash. They opened one in the US like 2 weeks ago with high expectations, need I say more? I think it's going to be great.

Shit, i responded to martin thinking it was you man, I added more explaining what I meant its on the last page or two.

I never said that you were some sort of sponger etc and to be fair all i had to go on was ' I can get it because of my dads job'

I guess it's cos no one wants to clean up other peoples' mess, and are lazy to clean up their own!

Well not actually house, it's an 2-bed room apartment in a 3-apartment house. But I've got the ground floor and the big yard so I call it a house. It's in this nice place called Crikvenica.

Well that's true and I can understand it. Personally, like I've said, I'm a slob and I can really live in my own mess with no problems....but, were I to share a place with someone, their mess would certainly bother me. Well is the rent cheap at least?

Just cleaning up your own would be enough, but they don't.

Btw living at home gives you really bad habits. I used to leave all kinds of stuff around. Now when I'm at my parents' I clean up.
