*cracks open a Molson Canadian in honour of this fine Canadian moment*
hello everyone, i was just wondering if anybody else was in college and if so what classes they are taking.
i am currently a senior and will graduate in 3 semesters with a degree in information systems.
i am a little older than most of my classmates since i didnt go to college directly after highschool, this decsion was based on the fine spirtual food provided by wtbts.
Yep Jelly...You're not the only one that is older than your classmates! I have been out of high school for 10 years and I started at the University of Alberta in Sept of 2002. I am working towards my Bsc in Nursing, and I have 3 more years left of school. I have just finished up with classes for the year, but I still have papers due and 2 final exams next week. Should make for an interesting weekend hm?
Many Hugs to You!

i'm going this afternoon to see my uncle at the va today and i just thought i would post what happened last time and offer a suggestion... the va hospital is probably one of the most disgusting place one could visit...kind of like a junk yard for the war machines that gave all they had and ended up wrecks.
mangled bodies missing limbs and the wracked frames, loneliness and unwanted solitude.
well my visit was good and then i went out to smoke...the vets outside talked my ear off for ten minutes and they thought ,when i went to go back inside for more visiting, that i was bored with them....i kindly explained no that i just needed to get back to my visit...i guess to make a long story short i would just say that it wouldn't hurt any of you to go and visit a veteran..even if you don't know them...you can arrange to do so through your local va or through a local nursing home.
Valis...I hope that things are well with your uncle
I agree totally with you. At the beginning of this semester my first clinical experience was working at a Veterans Hospital. At first, I was a bit scared because I was going to be helping so many "old men" and looking after "many" aspects of their um...ahem..."care". Once I got a chance to sit with a few and get to know them, I fell in love instantly. They love to sit and talk and just bullshit in general. One resident was a fiesty 99 yr old guy, who would sing to us student nurses, and cause trouble with the other residents. A couple of his neighbors said that he "ain't gonna live to see 100 if he keeps this up!"
My experience there will be one to remember forever. My favourite part of the whole experience was just sitting and "listening". Not alot of people "listen" to that generation much anymore, and it is times like these, especially with the war going on, that we need to stop and make time for this treasured generation, because there are not alot left.
There are plenty of homes out there that like to have volunteers come in and visit with the residents. Even if you go in and read the paper, books or just bullshit about sports. Spend time with them and hear what they have to say...you could learn something new.

how many of you have hurt the ones you love by exposing them to the "truth"?
i was the one who was a dub, i got sheilam to "convert".
i caused her a lot of pain and stole a big part of her life for it.
((((((((((thunder&sheila)))))))))))
Thunder that is so beautiful...I promised myself I wouldn't cry *reaches for kleenex* You two have a love that is so special that it would make Romeo and Juliet jealous. Hell, even I'm jealous ! LOL (j/k) Wishing you two continued Love and Happiness with each other!
Many Hugs & Much Love To You Both !

i am vivamus' mum, and i have heard so much about you, that i'd like to meet you all myself.
i joined the witnesses in 1998, but i have always doubted the organization, but not the faith.
i am still jehovah's witness, but i am sure that the elders will kick me out as soon as possible, should they know what my real thoughts about the organization are.

Welcome!!!!!! Look forward to talking to you!!!
Hugs and Much Love

a father and his young son are in a pharmacist's one day when the young boy notices the contraceptives rack.
"what are those for, dad?

hi all, just thought i would vent a little.
i am more mad at myself than anything.
yesterday (saturday) morning, after a very nice friday night of partying and chatting it up at my favorite lounge, knock knock on my door.
((((((((((goofy))))))))))
Vent all you want...that's what we're here for

i thought this forum was run by the jw religion but i read alot of bashing of it here.
can someone sum it up for me?
I haven't been for about 10 years now...and I am much happier for it
