Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104

In the U.S., I believe the difference between a college and a university is that you can get a graduate degree at a university but not at a college...but I might be wrong. It's fuzzy.

Actually, I'm not wholly sure about the difference between public and private. Privates are smaller and can be more selective; publics all have the word "state" in them, or else the state's name. Also, they're easier to get into.

Yeah. 50 thousand. For four years. It sucks big time.

In the US, University refers to a collection of colleges and college refers to a specific school of study. Example: One can go to the University of Utah, which is composed of a college of humanities, a college of education, a college of social sciences, and ect.. To get a degree in English, one would go to the college of humanities within the University of Utah. Usually, people use the terms interchangeably.

The difference between public and private is that private schools tend to be smaller and more expensive. Whether that translates into quality is hard to say.

When did this become a question?

When did this become a question?

Since people like me came about.

If people read my sig once in a while, you'd be over and done with, then.

All of the above are acceptable.

Also: you can't blame me if my contract is gender ambiguous.

Good.

On a very sad not: I'm watching my beloved Lady Smudge vomit up bloody phlegm and making sure it doesn't fall on anything.
I'm terrified she's going to die soon.
Sorry for breaking the happy banter.

What about this disclaimer?

Oh no, that sounds terrible. Hope she'll be okay.

Has she been in any fights recently?
Our cat had some vicous brawls with the one across the street and got injured pretty badly. She started vomitting blood and they decided she had punctured her lung or something and put her down.
You can still help her, provided you've identified it early and are getting her to a Vet very quickly.

...miss your Morkies, you bed stealing brainless flumpf.

[CurlyKitGirl]

No she hasn't. She's just old and has long - stand auto - immune problems which normally present as scars on her skin.
And it wouldn't help anyway as there's no vet within forty or more miles open any night, let alone a weekend one (even the local surgery's only open for three hours on a weekend) so we're just hoping it's not too dangerous.

I guess. But if it said that then people might be disappointed by the actual content of the posts...and I wouldn't want that.....

And Curly, many hugs.

[Eldpollard]

Poor kitty! I'll be more coherent when I'm sober but still... I hope he/she is better soon,

I think most students would have to find, say £13 000 a year. I'm not really sure.

Sounds a bit excessive to me, given maximum maintenance loan without income assessment is <£3000, and I think msot students manage on that.

for Lady Smudge. *Hugs* for Curly.


I just got back from seeing The Merchant of Venice at the Theatre Royal.

"IS THERE ANYONE IN ENGLAND WHO HAS NOT SEEN SHAKESPEARE IN THE THEATRE!?"[/Blessed as Augustus]
Seriously.

And I'm overestimating to be positive.

[Oregano]

I haven't, I don't think.

It'd be awesome though.

GRRR. For the past week I've had this little spasm in my lower left eyelid, where it just goes *twitch twitch twitch* intermittently throughout the day. It's not obvious enough to be noticeable unless I get RIGHT up close in front of the mirror, but it's DRIVING MY CRAZY! My mom says she gets it too when she's tired. SIGH. I DON'T HAVE TIME TO SLEEP!

Time to post here but no time to sleep?

PAH. Why do you think I DON'T have time to sleep?

Also: GiantITP can be done simutaneously with homework; sleeping, for obvious reasons, cannot.

You just need some practice. For instance, I'm currently drooling in my pillow, waiting to wake up.
