 CT> Dear Ken, 
 CT> Well l was really happy to actually get a reply from someone.  What
 CT> country are you from? I'm from Australia (and no, we don't have pet
 CT> koalas) Are you some sort oa Maths whiz?? I don't really know any
 CT> maths jokes, but l could tell you a few rude ones! Nah, better not ,
 CT> just as yet!
 KL>... ... Pi r Square?  No, Pies are round and boxes are square.

I'm what the Yanks would call a Canuck...I'm from Canada.  Lots of
people think that we live in some frigid wasteland.  Truth is that we've
been having temperatures around 30 for the past week.  Not something
that I'm exactly used to...I'm sweating buckets!

No, I wouldn't say I'm a math whiz.  I did pretty well, but it's not
what I enjoy. (Calculus, yeck!)  I prefer biology.  No not because of
the human reproduction unit - get your mind out of the gutter!
:-) <-smiley face! - just interested in the way I work I guess...

My friends keep telling me I have a sick mind.  Oh well.  I think that
they're the ones who need help...

 CT> So what do you do besides go to school? I learn the piano and
 CT> violin. I just got a job in a local supermarket so l had to cut down
 CT> on my ballet classes. How old are you? What school do you go to? What
 CT> are your favourite subjects at school? ( I pressume your at school,
 CT> because you said - 
 KL>well...time to go study!

Well I run, swim, downhill ski, and sometimes play tennis.  I used to
race in all of them, but with university I ran out of time.  Go figure!
I still do them on my own just to stay in shape.  I like downhill skiing
the best, but when there is snow there is school and when there is no
school there is no snow...bummer!  It might be for the best that I can't
go skiing all the time, I'd probably end up killing myself.  For me and
a couple of my friends there is no such thing as "out of bounds"  We
pretty much ski where the snow is good and the run looks fun!

Yeah, I'm working for the summer right now too.  I only have about six
full days of work left and then another week after that before classes
start again.  The job is to pay for tuition and books - not for spending
cash - since the prices are quickly becoming down right ridiculus.

Just going to start my second year at the University Of Calgary.  I'll
be turning 19 in about a month.  My first year of university was a pain
in the butt and a real culture shock, but I guess I did all right.
Probably better than quite a few of my friends who let the culture
shock get the better of them!

Actually classes have been out for almost four months now, but I'm
studying for the Medical College Admissions Test that is coming up
Spet. 19.  What a pain! :-)  <- That might explain why I like Bio!

So how 'bout you?  Tell me a little 'bout yerself!  (Excuse the english
its been deteriorating fast since classes let out!)

TTYL Ken
