5'5 dad, 5'3 mom & 6'4 son?!
Hum,

[J@3]

I'm closer to 6'6... believe me I have asked questions in the past

[Filip]

Haha, you were probably taller than your dad when you were like 10.

I'm 6'1" (6'2" if you're talking bball terms w/shoes)....dad is 5'3", mum is 5'3", older sister is 5'1" (at a stretch), younger sister is 5'2" and my older brother was also gifted me some height, he's 5'7"....the postman joke never gets old

although my uncle is 6'2", my great granddad was apparantly 6'4" and 3of my cousins are 6'3"....rest of family is short

[cyanide]

Speaking of hair, I thought I was going to inhairit (pun intended) my dad's hair. He's in his late 50's and he has an unnoticable receding hairline and I thought it was good enough until I learned that every guy's hair genes are inherited from his mother's father. I freaked out at first, but my mom's dad actually has better hair (died in his 80's, and no bald spot).

Jae and The X, pretty amazing stories Jae, would you have rather been shorter? (X is at a good height, so he has no reason to complain)

[J@3]

Jae, would you have rather been shorter?

Ideally I'd want to be around 6'8-6'10 for basketballing reasons. If I was taller I'd definitely be making a living off the sport in some way. I'm fairly disappointed with my height actually. When I was younger I wanted to be shorter though, I was the tallest kid in my "elementary" school when I was in like year 3 or 4 lol.

Hehe, a little screwup from me

this is my problem my dad is mid 50s but has widow's peak type receeding but full set of hair....whilst my mother's dad is not completely bald at age 70 (or so), I think I'm following his path....ahh well....shit happens....

My uncle (father's bro) is 7' 1"... and used to play Goalkeeper in the local soccer team... every opponent just aimed down low, and it was a goal. He had no problem whatsoever with crosses, of course...

I got the results from my matura (sort of SAT). I got 22 out of 31 which is good (Slovenian average is 17), but not good enough. My average grade in my junior and senior year of HS was a B, so I needed around 24 - 25 to get to the school I wished (communicology - PR, marketing (...)). I will have to study sociology for a year and then do another exams to redirect myself to communicology. I'm a lazy MF.

Edit: I corrected some spelling mistakes.

You sound like a smart guy, but hey, at least you're not out of the game. Hope things work out in the end

Yeah, good luck in your studies.

I'm pretty worried myself, since I've got good scores, but to get in the university I want, I need to work my ass off this year.

[Fenix]

Thats it. My first wish was communicology (didn't have enought points), the second politology and the third one was sociology. I thought I wouldn't make it to the politology (because it was my second wish and the all available room was filled with those who put this studies as their first one), but I did. You're reading words of a politology major. I'm feeling so intellectualish right now .

[Filip]

Ewww, my brother and my colleague at work was "getting it on" when I was gone working out at the gym.

I had the feeling all the time that when I would go the gym they would go and get nasty together.

When I came back after like 1h and 30minuts I rang on the doorbell, but nobody opend. I rang again, and after 1-2 minuts my brother finally came and open the door and said "sorry we were outside talking, didn't hear the ringbell". But when I went to the kitchen I saw that the door (to where they were suppose to talking to eachother) was locked with the key on the desk. Now why would my brother lock the door before opening the front door for me. I'll tell you why: Cause they weren't out talking, they were somewhere in the house doing something freaky.

So I went to the shower and when I was done, I went to the kitchen to get something to drink when I saw that they were sitting together watching tv holding eachother

Dunno why, but I find it a bit disturbing

Note the fact that she's german

I don't wanna go down cause I'm afraid of catching them doing something.....disturbing

Shit, it's totally quit downstairs, something is definitely going on

Shit. Shit shit shit. I just finished the last day of a summer camp I've been going to for 9 years and I'm never going to see most of those people again. On a somewhat happier note, on of the girls gave me a great goodbye present when we were alone...

Congrats, I think So what exactly is politology? The study of politics? Is that another name for political science?

You know what's really disturbing - reading your post and not knowing what sex is you colleague - untill the moment you tell us that she's German.

My thought exactly...


hey Filip... next time if you want to go downstairs try coughing REAL hard while descending... then they'll have no excuse if they get caught...

[Null17]

Fuck. Left eye hurts. Was playing ball. Someone from the other tried to save the ball from going out of bounds. Unfortunately, I was in front of me and I was so close to him and the ball was going to fast and the only thing that caught it was my left eye. Fuck, it even knocked off the contact lens on my eye.

The pain has died down a little though...hopefully I'll be fine tomorrow

LOL, you must be really hurt.

[Null17]

Let's just say I looked like Popeye after I got hit

Shit. Shit shit shit. I just finished the last day of a summer camp I've been going to for 9 years and I'm never going to see most of those people again. On a somewhat happier note, on of the girls gave me a great goodbye present when we were alone...

what camp?

[J@3]

Fuck sakes, some boiling oil splattered into my eye and now I can't see properly out of the left one I'm sure it'll fix itself eventually.
