I start school at 7 25. Bell rings at 2 15 to go home. I have never been the type to stay up all night doubt I will change in college.

Honestly I don't know what I want to do. I love travelling alot, but then I love leadership and being someone like a president or something, then I also love the military, being in the Navy seals and all would be awesome, but then I love storm chasing, I would die to chase storms like Reed timmer, but then I love hurricanes and would love to be a meteorologist who studies them, but then I love to be out on the ocean alot and would love to be a marine biologist or an oceanographer or something, but then I love math and physics and space was my first love lol so I would love to be an astornomer/ physicist, but then I have also always loved reading and writing poetry is a hobby of mine, but then I love body building and wouldn't mind doing something athletic. Basically I love adventure and change and would hate to stay at a 9 to 5 job my while life.

Honestly I want something that let's me travel, be a leader who is remembered for doing very good things in the world, and be able to spend my time out at sea alot. Anyways if you read this all you see my perdicament, your mind is twisting and turning and you feel lost like me now lol, wtf am I gonna do.

One of these is a summer month, and the other is a winter month. How these can both be classed Cfb is beyond me.

Wow our December was warmer than their July!

It's a truly atrocious climate.. I would call it subpolar or something but not sure what fits best seeing as it doesn't get really cold in winter..

I started at 7:20, but had to catch the bus at 6:40. It was terrible.

I loved not having to go to class until 10AM, 11AM, or even in the evening during college (depending on the semester). 8AM classes were rough.

I think it's funny how certain posters on here are self-proclaimed "Garden enthusiasts" but want to cut down every native deciduous tree because brown vegetation makes them "depressed" doesn't sound like a true plant enthusiast.

Wow school starts early in the US and Indonesia! (Though Indonesia is understandable due to different culture, US is surprising!)

We started at 8:50 and finished at 3:30.. I hated waking up at 7:15 everyday

In college (16-18) I didn't have to be in until 11:00 some days which was nice, but university now is even better.

My current timetable is:

Monday 11:00 - 13:00
Tuesday 13:00 - 15:00, 16:00 - 17:00
Wednesday off
Thursday 09:00 - 11:00, 11:00 - 13:00, 14:00 - 15:00, 16:00 - 17:00
Friday off

Not too bad, but Thursday sucks.. I've missed a few 9am Thursday classes from being hungover and not able to force myself out of bed..

High school for me started at 7:30 AM, and lasted until 2:40 PM. Terrible hours IMO. Too tired to really function well in the morning and you get out of school during the hottest part of the day.

I for one, like deciduous trees, although I like winter greenery over them. Nothing beats spring color though and how beautiful and cheerful it is to see pinks and reds and greens coming out on trees.

Not to mention autumn colors and the deep greens of summer. I just don't see how you can call yourself a "gardener" when you're so quick to cut down native vegetation just because your nancy ass is depressed over something as trivial as bare trees......


Winter brownness has it's own beauty, IMO. Especially coupled with the low sun angle and golden glow of the winter sun.
