Rarely AIM; almost never Skype; here in Poland we have our own Instant Messengers, we only use them :wtf:

Skype, oh that brings back memories.
I only used Skype for a short time. Though I am not very sure anymore, but it was back in the time when MSN had a lot of trouble with talking by mic. to other people. Not to mention that I was (or am, actually) too lazy to download any new version of MSN, though I have more reasons than just being lazy.
But I was quite fond on the time I used Skype, though it has been a while ago... if I remember right, it was one and a half year ago by now. When I, and a lot of other people of course, were waiting for their 'graduation', there was a chance we could fail. Would we be called, we've failed to graduate and if we wouldn't be called, we graduated. Eitherway, it really gave a lot of stress and most people were quite nervous. Being called during a certain time would ensure that you would not be able to graduate this year, and had to redo the entire year, or redo the exam, if possible. That had certain limitations, but I'm not sure what they were. I, for one, did graduate in the first try. When we were waiting for the phone call (well, we weren't waiting on it, but I'm sure you got the point) I was using Skype together with an amount of others (I can't recall the amount of people), I had MSN on and a lot of other chatting programs. I had everything ready to talk to my friends about it.
While talking on Skype to a good friend of mine, it came as quite a shock when I heard a phone ring at one of my friends. After a little while of silence, we heard he failed. I guess that made me stop using Skype, but that is not necessarily the reason why I stopped it. Such (bad) memories are memories I am trying to forget and remove, but which is very impossible for me. Graduating or not graduating is something that falls quite heavily, and especially at such an age and time, it is... quite painful to hear a good friend failing.
The other possible reason why I stopped using Skype was the lack of contacts. I had a few contacts (about 6 - 8) and I rarely talked to them. Nowadays, of all people I had on skype, I don't have any contact with them regularly. Just one of them, I must admit, I am able to get our 'friendship' back on track, but in all honestly, I'm afraid to do so. It's a nice guy, very responsible and one year younger than I am. The problem just is... it's his knowledge, his intelligence. Even though we have been classmates for a year, and his grades were not too far away from me, the combination of responsibility feeling and his general intelligence, is just so much superior than mine, or most people of his, and my age. I guess I'm just afraid of comparing myself to him. It gives a feeling of "Ed, what have you done this past ten years?" *sigh*
But whenever necessary, I'd be happy to reinstall Skype again on my computer. Fact remains that I only know three people who still use it nowadays... or at least, those I can talk to in my native language
My English pronouncal skills aren't too... great. I used to be quite good in pronouncing it, perhaps even better than writing it, but nowadays, both are going down like crazy. When my interest of 'radio DJ's' reached its peak, my English grammar dramaticly went down and my Dutch grammar dramaticly increased I guess it's something I don't mind too much, but it is a fact that I seem to prefer talking in my native language nowadays. Though I won't avoid typing English, if necessary, since I still prefer that above any other language. Although I will admit that I like typing German as well, except the fact that I suck in it, but that's a detail which is best not discussed here. All other languages I speak, or am able to write are best forgotten as well. Not to mention that it aren't too many languages, but I prefer not to talk about them Consider me being only able to speak three different languages and two fluent. =) That should be the best, and more accurate description I am able to give. A nice addition to it, I don't think I am very interested in learning more languages I (barely) speak. Though I always had a thing for the Frisian part.
Anyway, would I go up North any day soon, I might be able to get a few more contacts for Skype because of the many people who have a similar interest. Or at least, as long as I look in the right direction. Would I go a little too far north, then I would arrive at a place where it is more hated than loved But gaining contacts from there is a possible option, but leaving sports as the only subjects is going to bore me quickly. Though it is a good way of learning a new language - no, no, no forgein people - it isn't something I want to spend a whole lot of time at, when I... ah, never mind.
But come to think of it, if Skype has improved since I used it (one and a half year ago), though I wouldn't have a clue how it would have been improved, then it might be a good way to learn different languages as well. Or become more fluent in other forgein people... in my case, English and German. Or at least, those are the two languages I enjoy the most. Though I hold no grudge to Spanish or Italian either. Of course, Danish and Swedish have always been my second choice behind my native language, English and German... but then again, I always wanted to visit Denmark and/or Sweden once. Too bad that I can't do much financially, since I'm quite... ah, let's be honest shall we? I'm broke. Completely. I've spend the last of my money to bribe my homeroom teache-... too much details.
But I guess it would have been possible for Skype to do such a thing. To help others learn languages, though, unfortunately, in opposite of AIM, MSN and IRC, I hear extremely little about Skype. Maybe it's because I am looking at the wrong kind of place for it, - which I doubt - or it is because it just doesn't have a fragment of the popularity of those I named earlier. Though it is hard comparing a chatting program to something as big as AIM or MSN, not even including IRC. Fortunately, I only use one of the three I mentioned
Hmmm... now I think of it, perhaps Skype can be something useful when I'm studying or doing any (possible) homework. It saves me from typing, though I don't think that it is enough to lure me away from the general forums or MSN for that matter. As long as I have them available, I'll be active on it. But maybe it depends a bit on typing speed as well, though that is only a minor detail in the end.
Oh, I guess I have been rambling on a bit. I'm gonna get myself some dinner - I'm starving!
