    Finally, we got to a more QFRAT-appropriate level here! Maybe this thread now has a chance of survival …
    Finally, I can stop paying attention to this.

    I can't believe, how a little talk with a good looking woman can make my day
    I studied the whole day long and was in a real bad mood. Before I went home, i got me some food from a drugstore.
    After that a real nice woman came to me, she tried to convince me of donating money for Unicef.
    So i had a little talk with her, that... I don't know... made me kinda happy

    The BMT was quite large, at least I felt so. We were surely 60 people, crowded in the youth centre, literally sleeping in every corner available.
    Wow! Who was the hero who organized such a large meeting? I've worked on some teenager summer camps and such for about fifteen years now but never dared to take all the organizing on me (such as renting a house, bus and so on. But I've visited literally every hospital in Sweden from Karlskrona to Mora ).

    Sounds like you've had a lot of fun .

    Do you plan to come too, Glannargh?
    Is that an invitation? Well, no, not really. I haven't got anything to do with the Makers and wouldn't know what to talk about...

    La Cipolla, Ty Ni, Borky, Aurae, Dr. Alzheim, V-King and Eisbaer are responsible for the BMT and apart from a handful of disagreeabilities with the schedules, they did a stellar job.

    That didn't stop me from attending. There's plenty of friendly and welcoming people and enough activities and work to do for everyone.
    Well, to be fair, I knew some people beforehand, which was the main reason for me to go there, but my point still stands.

    Yeah, people! /o/ Yeah, activities! \o\ Yeah, wor— wait!

    i wrote my math exam today and it was harder than expected...
    But that doesn't matter, what matters is, that there are just two exams left. They won't be easy, but two more and it's finally over!

    And... did you donate some money?
    Well...no, I'm kinda stubborn about this. I don't want to donate, because a girl with a saccharine smile convinced me to do it.
    When I'm ready to donate, then I'll do it, but now I don't have money for this...

    I will never ever forgive the responsible person(s) for turning my Lifestyle-Forum into this trolling mess which it has become since.

    Anyone interested in reviving the French thread by the way?

    Honestly, I considered it. I even remembered that such a thread existed (surprise!). Alas, my french is pretty bad and it would take me several hours just to write an intelligible posting. Not to mention one that would be worthy of a thread revival. But if you give it a try, I might do so as well. Don't rely too much on me though. Keep in mind that I have some serious trouble with that language. It's even worse than my english.

    (As you said you want to be corrected …)
    In English you don't put a comma before „that“ (at least usually – you do, e.g., in lists, of course). A bit confusing as it's exactly the other way 'round in German, I know.
    I'd also split that sentence in a stronger way (after „matter“) – either into two completely separate sentences, or with a colon, semicolon or dash. But that's really a minor detail. ^^""

    My French is far worse than Dio's, so I really don't think I'd be able to participate. :-/ On the other hand, in principle I would like to improve it (even read „Le Petit Prince“ recently in a vague attempt in that direction), so maybe that'd help … *shrug*

    Oh, and very nice signature, by the way!

    I can't speak french sorry, although I can say "Hello I'm" and "Do you wanna sleep with me?"

    @drunken Monkey: Thanks, I'll try to remember this.

    We can't let this thread disappear into oblivion. Okay, it's only been four days but hey, four days on the Internet is like forever, and then some. After successfully (at least up to now) reviving the French thread, I shall now also venture into these linguistic regions. As it seems that, right now, there is no subject to discuss, I'd like to suggest one: Movies, or rather movies in their original language. I am not a huge movie fan, but I still like a good one every now and then. Now, the problem is that nowadays, the huge majority of all movies that make it to the cinema are English. While that's fine per se, here in Austria (and I guess Germany is much the same) it's not that easy to see a film in English, e.g. the language it has originally been made in. At least in Salzburg, where I'm currently living, you get maybe 5, 6 representations in "OV", and that's it. If you miss those, you can watch "The King's Speech" in German... yay. The situation is somewhat better in bigger cities like Vienna, for instance, but still... And it's not a weird decisions by the movie theaters either, if you go into an OV-movie, 8 times out of ten it will be half empty or worse. So it stands to reason that most people don't want to see films in the original language but prefer to have it translated to theirs... I find this a bit weird, since, in my opinion, you lose a lot of the atmosphere of the movie in the translation, especially if there is any kind of puns, humor, idioms ore dialects involved...
    So, what's your opinion about that? I'd like to know if I'm alone with that problem or if it's only in my provincial "city" that movies are seldom played in English... discuss!

    I know your problem, it's the same here. The cinema in my city is a pretty small one and thus there is not enough room for films in their original language. If I wanted to watch a movie in its original language I'd have to wait for the Blu-ray-release. And even if there was a possibility to watch a film in English here, I'd have the problem that most of my friends wouldn't want to come with me 'cause they prefer the German version. That sucks the most, seeing that so many movies lose a lot of atmosphere and humour due to a (bad) translation. A good solution for this kind of problem is the way it's handled in the Netherlands, where movies aren't translated but subbed.

    Damn, it's so hard to write in English after such a long time. I feel like a pupil in 9th grade.^^

    Well, I rarely go to the cinema at all, so this doesn't really bug me that much. I do prefer the original version (OK, only as long as it's English, of course.), too, though. But mostly watching films on DVD or … *cough* other OV channels … => problem solved. ^^"" When I do go to the cinema, it's mostly for the company, and then I get overruled to watch the German version in most cases anyways. <__<"
    So, yeah, original versions >> dubs, but I don't really have that problem. I tend to have the discussion more often than actually having to watch a dubbed film in the cinema. XD
    Oh, and the situation isn't really that much better in Vienna, I guess. We have a few cinemas dedicated to original versions, but apart from that there's also very little offered by the other cinemas in that respect.
