@Olympian1010 I think I found the right picture of what your studies look like ;).

Very true for today. My first class (1 and 1/2 got cancelled), so just a hour long stats class today and that’s it. :thumbup:

 

I should also mention that I love learning and that I spent my childhood reading, surfing Wikipedia, and memorizing useless facts. I also love school, and I have a photographic memory. So really I find my classes rather easy. I’ve never really had to study for tests, and often have to put in very little effort to pass classes. I realize that I’m ultra privileged in that aspect, and I salute those of you who spend 8-12 hours of your day learning, studying, and working.

Wow, I'm jealous. I have a photographic memory, but to human faces, names, flags of countries etc. from here I am able to tell you, e.g. the winning composition of a team from one year or the result of a given game.
For me, except for math, nothing causes me any major problems with learning. And they don't want to attend lectures, I have to go because we can only not come once for a reason. With the rest, long to talk about the education system. Someday we can compare education systems in my country and you.

As for my work, those who sit here in the morning (European time) see that then I have the most time. With the rest of the charm of IT work at the office. If I'm not needed to help someone, I'm sitting on the forum and I'm active. And when I have to do something, usually the forum is in the background, just like any other occupation. Now that I have graduated, the forum is still in the background, because there are notebooks on the desk and I am looking for topics for papers, because despite the broad knowledge on various levels (not concerning politics) on the topics that I have to develop, I need to prepare.

Oh my mother, but I've made a talk ... what did this forum make of me :mumble:.

And CCTV doesn’t post replays of everything :cry:. Oh well, I settle for what they’ll let me watch (said me and every Chinese citizen)

Chinese censorship has come into play :p. Next time, when it is such a situation that it will be difficult to watch something, we have to boast of links only in private messages.

 

Apparently someone CCTV is spying on us here (if you read this CCTV spy blink twice).

    • Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina   Let's do this for a country that is not actually that good in winter sports as well as our Olympic Committee Declining lots of places.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
