A ridiculous statement, don't you reckon.

Or if you have no diploma, that means you don't work hard?
Or that people who don't have diplomas are lower than the ones who do?
Perhaps I should be disdainful of everyone who doesn't know what a "nasal mutation" is?
Pretty egocentric and prejudiced. And not very reasonable.

Life itself makes one more sophisticated. Experience.
In 5-6 years you'll see the world through a different perspective either way.



Indeed! The choices you make is what matters, not how many papers you possess.

Because even one thousand diplomas could not make you a better person for your family, for your friends, for your own self.
They could make you just an officially acknowledged expert in.. something.
Which, of course, would be great, but it's not enough.

To be eager for knowledge is creditable, and education is a worthwhile end in itself. Yet you should feel it as a necessity, because knowledge and education are not one and the same thing, they are not terms that are interchangeable – knowledge goes way beyond education. And beyond diplomas.
Wisdom.

Xristos kai Panagia! I do sound like a mormon preacher! LOL I apologize.

You have a slightly different opinion than mine but still, I can’t disagree with you. Sometimes I believe I’m old fashioned for interfering with education all the time. Most of my friends think that college is not essential. They all work hard but not all of them attend a 4-year university. They are wonderful people.
I never felt superior for attending the college I attend, for receiving great scholarships for my knowledge or for being part of a family whose members have several degrees. That has never made my family stick together.

I’m trying to be independent. My independence relies on my college. That’s why I see my future through the gates of my education. And besides this, I am honestly interested in research; I am interested in learning. It doesn’t make me better than that someone who finds his happiness in something else; it’s just a way of being many people pick or ignore. And when I mentioned boredom, I meant that my life wouldn’t be as interesting otherwise. I am 19 and happy with the life I have; and it’s not only school…it’s much more than that. And as u said, happiness and integrity requires more than one thing.

Only 1% of the world has a university degree. I respect those people for having the chance and desire to literally study. And the 99% must have found something more important in this world besides studying, which is totally right as well.

So you've made your choice. It's noteworthy and remarkable. My respectful compliments.

Unfortunately, for some people education is a luxury they cannot afford.

Thank you. I am glad to meet intelligent people and have the chance to debate on such topics.

I enjoy the correlation between your opinion and Dimitris's opinion. You guys just match!

So am I. : )))
And I apologize for my tone, it's most likely a result of pms.

Nah, glykia mou, Dimitris is always in opposition. We argue all the time (), but when I'm wrong, I'm too stubborn (and silly) to admit it. lol


Hahaha! Susi You're amazing!
That's called "living an energetic life".

for sure, it's time to live like this AND the decision to leave germany to greece was most probably one of the most imprtant decisions, except the birth of my children, no matter how long I will stay in greece. and who knows what's the next decision, maybe I will live in africa, when I am a real grandma

susi

It's not as far as you think. If you wanna live in Africa, just come to Thessaloniki. According to Dimi we live in Zimbabwe.

But seriously, I'd really love to visit Africa some day.

in german it means *meine süsse* in english it should be *my sweet*

stay here and try to learn more greek with greek songs. and maybe you try this one:

Free Online Translator

plus I have a VERY good dictionary:

dialogi - dialoge griechisch - deutsch, deutsch- griechisch, and there is also one available in english - greek, greek - english.

Ellinoekdotiki Olympia is the publisher of those books, the author of the german one is ΧΡΥΣΑΝΘΗ ΣΜΠΗΛΙΑ

OHHHHHHHHHHHHH, would you tell me about her?

A lot of so called friends in Germany don't understand my decision, and try to convince me to stay here

susi

She'a a tall woman, 1.75m, slim, her eyes are green and brown haired.
She met Konstantinos, (my father) and they have one child. After 2 years, they broke up. She met another man, with whom she's merried. She started again a new life (of course, I'm her only child) away from Romania.
it's up to me if I go in Barcelona to study or not...
She is very happy with her family, glad with this situation.

That's all

Tomorrow we meet and we greet the Spanish team and I hope on Sunday night we will be in the final game.
Its a bad thing for our politicians since on Sunday we have elections but.. basketball comes first

Hot damn, this game was better than ... I wont say it cuz my woman will slap me lol! My heart still beats 200 times per minute lol
