She was pro-Israel, so pretty much only got stuck in if there were Israeli/Palestinian issues afoot. However I joined after her, so she may have been move involved before I came.

Other way round. The press is lying to you.

And why aren't you Colombia in that case?

I know who I'd rather have in charge.
M wanted us to DR the most controversial countries - Venezuela is exactly that. I'm sure he'll let you have it if you want, I'll take Colombia and we can duel

I should be revising right now as well but I'm yet to have that moment of realisation where I **** myself because the exams are only a matter of days away. I'm so lackadaisical about it and I know I should have my head inside a textbook for a few hours ever day but it's just not going to happen. I think I need shock therapy...

I have family in Colombia, so I guess their hatred of him has rubbed off on me.
He's a slippery character though - like when he almost invaded Colombia because Colombian special forces illegally went a couple of miles into Ecuador to capture a high ranking member of FARC who was hiding there. Colombia should have gotten permission, but it really wasn't any business of Chavez's to get involved.

We hardly get homework.

Okay, that's actually a lie; we got homework every week for both maths lecturers (algebra/calculus) but I never bothered to do any of it after Christmas. I never really bothered to go to any tutorials after Christmas either - too many 9am starts for my system!

I have so much work to do. I have only just realised the extent of what I was supposed to do over easter. This is very probably very bad.

I think universities imply that private study time is homework.
I've never thought of it as homework though - just studying.

I just can't get in the mood for work at the moment. Here in the flat I get distracted by TSR, TV and flatmates and when I go to the library I can never concentrate and end up coming home after an hour of sitting there staring at a computer screen or book.
