Same here, I miss all these guys. Jolt/Wig was especially hilarious, he often said things that made me smile. I also remember Agent and Pure, they were the ones who were creating most of the Face-Offs IIRC and I had fun together with them.
It varied a bit, I tried to mainly focus on physical geography but geography is a broad subject and I we studied quite a lot of different things. I also studied a little bit of linguistics one term. Oil companies? I'm not sure if there are any around where I live and I'm not sure if that's what I want to work for either. I did a little bit of GIS stuff but it wasn't much, wish I had done more of it as I heard it is really useful to know.
I see. Whenever I studied economics at school, I always found it boring. Maybe it is more intereresting in practice. Or maybe it just isn't my thing.
I understand. I have heard that Japan is extreme with the heat during the summer. The snow staying for too long is understandable too, but I'd rather take that than none or not enough snow which is what I have sadly gotten used to for the past few years. I'll think about those cities if I should ever go to Canada.
And yes, I'm from Scandinavia, I'm surprised you remember that.
