Gee, you are in some serious trouble by the way you sound. :(

Most of the trouble really is caused by the way I get paid. I do get all the money I need, just not on time. And that way, debt builds up and I never really have the feeling that I have any extra money left.
 
On the list of life's simple pleasures, a walk in the crisp fall woods is seriously underrated.
 
The only reason that I didn't fail my final exams because of maths was because my teacher didn't want to teach me for yet another year. So he displayed generosity that would put Mother Theresa to shame. :D
 
Tell me about it! The only reason I decided to study philology was because I would never ever have to see a math problem again for the rest of my life.
 
I took my sole college math class during the summer as a 6 week course just to get it over with. Oddly enough, my profession is mostly match based, but I have degrees in History and Political Science.
 
I've still got an old maths test from grade nine or ten somewhere. My teacher wrote an evaluation underneath it: "You've obviously got a completely wrong perception of mathematics."

Not a lot of woods near me, but I started walking a few years ago to battle a health issue and still do about 4-6 miles a day -- 6 days a week. Putting on some headphones and blasting the hell out of some music really helps clear the mind. It is a nice feeling to be in the world, but at least audibly, isolate yourself from it. Beyond any health benefit, it is really good for the mind to just blank out and think about stupid shit for an hour or so.

In Bulgaria we get grades from 2 to 6, with 2 being a fail and 6 being the highest. I had 2.10 on a mid-term test because my teacher said she would like to compensate me for the ink I'd used while trying to solve the problems.

:funnypost:

Our grade system up to college level was 1-6, with 1 being the best and 6 being the worst. 5 was already a fail, but you could still somehow manage to compensate for it. It changed to 15 points then, with 15 being the best and 3 and below being various grades of failure. In my final exams, I had both the best and worst grades in my class; 14 for English, and 0 for maths. My teacher gave me 2 points for my oral exam, which was the minimum required for me to pass with my general score.
 
So, I have been working at home quite a bit this week and have watched (while working) 17 episodes of Mission Impossible (TV Show, not the crap movies) on Netflix ... thinking I am getting a bit obsessive .
 
What the hell is an oral exam in maths? Never heard of such a thing.

The night before my final exam in English at school, I was having a night out. A bunch of people were headbanging really close to each other and me and a guy there crashed our heads big time. I think I passed out for a second but I thought I was fine. Didn't tell my parents, went to the exam the next day and somehow managed to score the highest result in class. A few days later I found out I had suffered a concussion. :D
 
I just blew some dust off my copy of the Qur'an. There was some spit in my breath. Will I go to hell now?
