I'm a teacher - secondary school level (that's 11-19 year olds). It's always interesting to see the RL jobs of people that're brought together by a common interest.

Oh dear.

I'd be one of those. All the teachers get given laptops in our school and when something goes wrong, I tend to run down to the IT dept with my best whining voice on and whinge about a problem that their magical techie hands can solve with a few keystrokes.

Oh dear.

Oh don't get me started.  I used to work for lawfirms and a corporation.  But being in the government is far worse.  :mowdizzy

What do I do?  I do many things.  I write, I draw, I read, I laze on the internet, and I worry about life.  I'm a person, that's my occupation.   :U

...Okay, I'm also a college student.  And currently awaiting the start of summer vacation.

One week to go through...just one...   :blink

See, I'm already thinking that if we were all put into a room without explanation, nobody'd talk to anyone. That's what's ace about the 'net.

Oh dear.

I knew there was a reason I didn't like you. ;-]

Erm. Given the number of posts I have, I think you'd have more luck duct-taping my mouth shut... :-]

It's a strange thing that people who talk a lot online are often quieter IRL. I mean, I can't keep my mouth shut for love nor money, but usually I get shot down by dirty looks when I'm meeting new people. Bless

Oh dear.

I'll (hopefully) be graduating from high school at the end of May.  Thank God! D:

I wouldn't have (much) of a problem talking to these peeps in person.  I just recently took a trip to a theme park with a bunch of peeps from a rollercoaster forum I visit.

I've met a few folk off the 'net. Generally, once the alcohomohol gets flowing, it's all good. There's always a moment of "Um. What the friggle are you saying," though, when I start gabbing off in my normal speaking voice.

Oh dear.

nikename2

Yeah I hear ya, I'm about a good 2 weeks and a half from finishing my first year of college. Then I got a little more then a month before classes start up again.  :rolleyes

thegayhare

meeting people off the net laways has that moment of "Ummm now which one are you"

and dispite the fact that I do have long fluffy ears hanging down my back I don't look much like what people expect

thats one of the reasons I started bringing the cookies to AC I mean they are a great Ice breaker.  I mean few things set people at ease like the offer of a cookie. 

"Cookie? What kind?"

"Well I've got cherry, sour apple..."

"Wait did you say Sour Apple Cookies?"

Ooo, no laughing at the knocked up teenagers. Hard as it may be.

Oh dear.

I'm a complete and utter failure. Hi!

Hmm. First year college student, and on a different schedule than the others here. I've still got a month to this term, and I've gotta take summer school to catch up a little bit.

Nah, we're good. (even have a backup)

Also: Bill, I'm a complete and utter failure, too.  We can be failures together!

Think we can incorporate? I'm sure there's a niche market for failing.

RAWR I AM A DRAGON >:3

I mean...I'm a freshie like Modelin. I'm usually a good Dakata (I have 3 A's, 2 B's, a C minus, and I'm passing a Pass-or-fail class :3) and I do my work unless someone makes me mad.

Then I have to kick some butts! >:O *Tries to look tuff and mean*

I also play on Neopets...and 3 other pet sites. And 2 Pokemon petsite-ish sites. And I scream at kids who go to my school on MySpace. Because they can't spell. :<

And when I'm not doing school-stuff or dorky stuff, I'm usually kicking Boogeyman's butt.  8) Someone's gotta show that mean 'ol closet-monster who's boss. *Tries to look tuff again*

You know what else Daka does?  Not draw me stuff he's supposed to draw me, that's what. :<
