It's the exact opposite here; we get like a month of 'winter' (though the temperature is probably not even spring or autumn standards for some countries...), and the rest is just...hot hot hot hot hot [gonk]

Thanks Nuggets! [squee]

Uh...BC and manga? [sweat] BC is at least somewhat English-relevant (got into the institute of English after all), but hardly something I can write a thesis over (or maybe I could, but it would probably drive myself insane)

And manga has almost nothing to do with English. [sweat] [sweat]

You're not graduating from college? Did something happen? [:(]

BC as in Benedict Cumberbatch. Not really a great choice for writing a thesis on since it'll probably turn out quite biased. [sweat];;;;
Maybe I could make it to be about English actors in general...hmm.
The idea about manga has merits, maybe something about Comic cons...though since I'm not living in an English-speaking country myself, I don't know how accurate I can make it. I'll think about it and see if I can figure something out. [sweat]
Thanks for the ideas!

Is it possible to apply for delayed graduation? [:o] The colleges here have that if you don't have enough credits, they let you stay another semester (or more, not sure what the limit is) and retake the classes you don't have enough credits for.


@Nuggets: It is. And since we're on an island...you pretty much could go to a beach every day if you want to. [lol]

Wow, I wish you the best of luck Papillon! What kind of business do you plan on starting? [:)]


And thanks guys! I think I feel a little better about trying to find a thesis topic now. [lol] I was dreading it whenever I hear the word 'thesis'...probably because my dad made it sound like it's super complex and hard and stuff ever since I was a kid and had any idea what thesis even meant. [sweat]

Ooh, sounds fun! [eager] Maybe you could even have classes on the side for kids and stuff...I see them a lot whenever I'm at a department store; in the kids area, there are tons of these mini art-classes where they provide the supplies and teach the kids how to make something for a certain fee. Parents usually don't mind paying for those kinds of things, as it keeps the kids distracted for an hour or so while the parents could get some shopping done. [lol]

I'll have to write down the ideas later so I won't forget. [lol]

I can't wait to see pictures of it too! [eager] If I'm to start a business I have no idea what I want to do...a couple of friends and I have jokingly talked about opening a restaurant where one friend would be the waitress, the other doing all the accounting, and me in the kitchens doing the cooking, but I doubt it's actually a feasible plan. [lol];;;

Nah, just the ones mentioned in the thread. [XD];

Well...starting up is the easy part. I'm terrified of it flopping and ending with everyone in debt. [sweat]

Yeah...except there are so many restaurants here it's kind of hard. [lol];; If you did something everyone else has, you risk people not liking your stuff as much and = no customers. Yet if you do something that not everyone else has (such as selling some kind of foreign exotic foods), you risk people not liking the taste or not wanting to venture out of their palate comfort zone, and again = no customers. [gonk];
