;) That's the most weird thing ever - I haven't done any computer programming in the past! I'll do it for the first time at university ;)  ..but I've to add, that I once tried the "Hello World"-​programming :)

Yes, Christian is the most dominating religion in Austria. I think about more than 80% of all inhabitants are Christians.
You're absolutely right - for me, it also don't make me less of a Christian if I'm not going to church every Sunday. I like the comparison with the relationship​ :)
Oh yes - I love conversation​s like that one, for sure! I really enjoy talking about philosophica​l things and it's nice to have someone who likes it too :)

That's true, I also think that there are many - even too many - people who think that they are "real Christians"​ because they're going to church every Sunday. I don't want to say that's nonsense, but I think my relationsshi​p between God and me is maybe more intensively if I'm doing things (for him) which I really can make seriously and with a little bit of joy :)
God doesn't mean to pray the whole day, i like "talking"​ to Him. He's one of my friends and I can tell Him everything I want.

In my holidays, I'm often reading until late in the night.. sometimes late after midnight ;)
But at the moment, I've to read (for my english-clas​ses) a story about a man, who had been a slave in the 19th century. I don't like the story at all... :)

For sure - I will fly to the USA and we will go to a concert of  Paramore :) ..oh, i guess the mountains are looking very very nice in autumn, with the yellow/red/b​rown leaves... :)

I hope to hear from you soon and you're having a good time over there :)

Hi! :)
Yes, I think I'm very interested in some technical things like computer programming.​ I don't know why but I think it's interesting and a little bit fascinating :) Oh, you're right - your father's job sounds really great! Although I don't want to do it in my future life... it's a little bit weird: I just don't know what I want to do with my (future) acknowledge in programming,​ but I want to learn it :D

Yes, I really would like to travel around with a band :) Maybe I would like to be their own clay mixer. In Austria, there are soo many bad clay mixers - horrible!! I want to be the revolution, the female revolution :D

Our school is very liberal, yes... The majority of the students are Christians, but we have the possibility to unsubscribe from the Religion classes (actually it was invented for Islams, Buddhists and so on, but today there are many many people - in my opinion too many people - who just unsubscribe because they want to have free periods instead of the Religion classes)
Yes, I'm Christian - but I've to admit that I don't go to church every Sunday. I believe in God, in his amazing love... but I've my own explanation for some things. I pray to God too, but I don't know who this God is. Do you know what I mean? I don't know if he is the old man, looking like grandpa, who assigns all my sins... I even don't know if he's a person. It's so hard for me to describe God - but I know that he protects me, that I can pray to him whenever and wherever I want to.  Who's and how's your God?

You're working in a bookstore? Fine :) I like reading very very much, although I don't have so much time for reading. As you know, it's a little bit stressful for me - but in every holidays I'm sometimes reading almost 2 or 3 books a day! :D  Which genre of books do you like best?

Hmm... Oh yes, for sure! I'll fly to the Us and we'll doing something fun together ;) Do you already have some suggestions?​

Well, take care of you and I hope to hear from you soon...

Heey Nathan,
don't worry about it.. there are also tons of work for me, our teachers might be the same like yours (they're giving homework - endlessly!) 

Oh yes, for sure - we really like working and learning (we just can't get enough), so we're going to school one month longer ;)  
I'm very excited for university, you too?
I want to go to a special kind of university, there you can collect more experiences in praxis (the information broche said - no, just a joke :) those universities​ are really good and you get a very good education there). Maybe I would like to do something with media technology or IT. I would like learn how to programming (on computer, you know..), it's a little bit unusual for a girl, but I'm interested in it :)
And my dream is to manage and organize a music band one day, probably a rock group :)

No, not at all - my school is very very liberal, a whiff of religion :) But I'll graduate in Religion, that's the reason for the title of my thesis :)    Oh really, you get homework in Religion??
No, I don't have a job. I guess it would be too busy for me, working beside school. I'm coming home from school at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, after lunch I've to handle about 3-4 hours of homework (sometimes even more than that). Twice a week, I'm arriving home at about 6 o'clock (I don't want to call it "afternoon"​ any more).. so I think there is no time for working.
If you don't mind my asking, where do you work? Are you assisting in a shop for example?

You've also "band friends"​? Great :D   I like them very very much :) You used to play music in a band too? So what did you play? The piano? :)

Oh no, sorry. I haven't done anything fun lately, I was working for school - doing lots of homework and so on.. just like you :)
Take care of you (don't work too much :P) and I hope to hear from you soon.

Heeey.  how are you? ;)

Well, our school started in September, it usually lasts until July. But for those, who will graduate this year, it lasts only till the beginning of May. Then, we will make our final examinations​ (a written part and a oral part) and in the middle of June - we will be finished! And from then on, we can go to university :D
Oh yes, me too: i hate math! grrrr :D ..the weird thing is that i'm always getting a good note. But i'm working very very hard for the tests. Last year, i did nothing else than learning for math; before the test studied the whole weekend.. about 36 hours :)
I love writing, too. For me, it's not so difficult as things like maths. Sometimes, i really enjoy writing a text for school (if i'm interested in the topic)
I've to write 3 thesises (I don't know if that's the right plural word..): the first one is in Religion, it's about the question why we believe in God. The second thesis is in French and it's about "la Corse" (=the french island Corsica). And the last one will be in Geography but I already haven't chosen a topic for it, maybe something with shares/stock​-market or export trade..
Hey, how fine! We will graduate at the same time, juhuuuu :D   ..hm, I'm a quite young girl in my class, because my birthday is in summer, on June, 18th. By the way, when's your birthday? ;)

Oh, I really LOVE festivals! :D i like this feeling of listening to music, being with friends, enjoying everything and all the time.. Great! :)
I've never heard about the Warped Tour before, but I like the idea of those bands, touring together. I like bands very much :D There are lots of friends of mine who play an instrument (or sing) in a band. Do you have such "band-friends"​, too? ;)  Or do you play in a music band?

Oh thank you for supporting my idea of teaching my children other languages :)
Yes, I'm quite interested in languages because that's something that nobody can take you away. It's part of your life - you can use and improve it
