Here's a bit about me:

-I'll be starting the BSc Computing Science pogram in September
-I live in Richmond
-My two favourite things are mountain biking and photography (especially a mixture of the two :smile: )
-In September I'll be taking MATH 151, MACM 101, CMPT 126 and PHIL 120
-I was born in the Ukraine
-I went to RC Palmer

That's about it.

Also, props to whoever came up with the idea of this forum as it seems like a nice place to get some useful advice and to get to know people.

Cheers!]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2222/girl-drops-panties Sun, 01 Jul 2007 19:57:56 +0000 illicit 2222@/forum/discussions http://www.broadcaster.com/clip/20594]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2256/fifa-u-20-tournament Mon, 09 Jul 2007 15:13:04 +0000 Kevin M. 2256@/forum/discussions impossible to find! I'm the type of guy I'd rather play sports than watch sports but some of those goals are pretty impressive...anyone catch the japan vs. nigeria game?]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2240/hi Thu, 05 Jul 2007 21:04:51 +0000 d4nce4m01 2240@/forum/discussions
I like reading, watching movies, hanging with friends, and uhhh ninjas. Gotta love the ninjas. Although Pirates are better.

That's basically me. :)]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2249/mbb-221 Sun, 08 Jul 2007 21:42:49 +0000 intr3pid 2249@/forum/discussions
I was wondering how tough MBB 221 is. Is it much tougher than BISC 101 or CHEM 281?

your input is appreciated.]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2253/live-earth-and-environmental-impact Mon, 09 Jul 2007 02:51:54 +0000 meesh 2253@/forum/discussions Do you guys feel as if it achieved its goal in creating awareness for climate change?

Personally, I think it was a good concept much like the Live8 concert. But after catching a few performances from the show, I realized I didn't learn much about climate change or how to reduce my carbon footprint, at least not much more of what I had known already. I mean, I think it's important to get this message across that small things you do to conserve energy and to reduce carbon emissions will help contribute to the global concern, but I felt the concert mainly had some popular bands play some of their hit songs...

I am interested in helping the environment. I'm thinking I might start taking some Sustainable Development courses at SFU so I can learn more about it and since i'm planning to be in a business-related field, I think it it would be beneficial for me know how I can run an environmentally sound organization.

then again, Live Earth has kind of got me thinking about taking these courses, so maybe it has done part of its job of creating awareness? :P]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2247/hi-everyone-nervous-and-excited Sun, 08 Jul 2007 13:05:07 +0000 jkd 2247@/forum/discussions
Im 18,
HUGE Canucks FAN!
Ex-soccer player :)

and I'm from Abbotsford, B.C Its about an Hour away so I'll be looking for a nearby place as I missed the application for Residence deadline in March :( I reallly really wanted to live there for my first year. Can i still apply after the first semester or no?

My registration date is coming up this wednesday at 3:30pm, and Im still confused on the whole thing.
I will either stay here for the teacher program or transfer to UBC, but thats in the fifth year.

Im planning on being an English teacher and I cant wait till this september!]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2251/i-need-help-i-bet-you-could-help-me Mon, 09 Jul 2007 00:04:49 +0000 jkd 2251@/forum/discussions Anyone here planning on becoming a teacher, or know of anyone?

I plan to be a Secondary school teacher, teaching Geography and English. If I had the option, I would be majoring in Geography, but either or.

I know this sounds really dumb, but what classes exactly would I be looking to take 1st year? I have to be a full time student, so 4-5 courses Im guessing.]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2252/econ-104 Mon, 09 Jul 2007 00:22:53 +0000 Tina 2252@/forum/discussions
Who has taken ECON 104 and can tell me about the course and its assignments?

I noticed that assignments are not included in the break down of marks on the syllabus. Are they worth anything?

Thanks ^^]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2200/has-anyone-read-titus-adronicus-by-shakespeare Mon, 25 Jun 2007 19:42:08 +0000 Kevin M. 2200@/forum/discussions http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/1726/powerhouse-laptop-for-uni-whaddya-think Thu, 22 Mar 2007 12:52:32 +0000 falco85 1726@/forum/discussions

well it's this laptop with the above specs. Kinda want a decent laptop as it's my first, not really fussed about weight/screen size.
The price is £650 so is this a worthwhile deal or could I get something better for the same amount?
Let me know what you think, cheers!]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2242/where-do-you-like-to-study Fri, 06 Jul 2007 12:53:30 +0000 kt_uvic 2242@/forum/discussions http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2248/50-most-important-people-on-the-web Sun, 08 Jul 2007 15:17:24 +0000 Kevin M. 2248@/forum/discussions

2. Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook)
3. Craig Newmark (Craigslist)
4. Markus Frind (Plenty of Fish)
5.
