Voltron 09-01-2003 04:27 PM

I think I already explained my college situation. Needless to say I'm not enthralled about returning to any form of government issued education.

Raven 09-01-2003 04:48 PM

About a week late, aren't you?

And: Dorm? What's a dorm? :D I'm quite comfortable at the UTD apartments. We're spoiled, so NYAH! :P

I feel your frustration, cqb. High school = hell, especially when you really don't like going along with the whole social aspect of the experience...but c'est la vie!

DarkNinja 09-01-2003 07:31 PM

I'm counting the days down... 35 more weeks of school, or 175 days, but it'll end up being more cause we've got extra make-up days in case it snows... just hope all the extra days are taken up by bad weather. My snowmaking machine will see to that! :evilgrin:

Voltron 09-01-2003 07:37 PM

I wish they had a barfing face emoticon here. To show my distaste for school.

Sweet barfing icon!

No schoolie for me, I'm on an "extended leave of absense" thanks to a lack of schools around here. Though, the first two years were indeed a riot. Awful cafeteria food, late night excursions to the liquor store with the "old" guy in our dorm hall, my psychotic Japanese roommate.

Ah, good times. It does get better after high school... that is, if you don't mind eating Ramen noodles three times a day for four years.

Tinselcat 09-01-2003 09:26 PM

me likes the college. ethernet.... *drools* yeah, so i'm happy. I've got a great roommate. tomorrow i need to go to these art classes and beg the proffessor to let me in. standard procedure.

Voltron 09-01-2003 09:42 PM

Wow! I should have known someone would have thought of a barfing face icon. But I was looking for something with a little more disgust in the face.

That Matt Guy 09-01-2003 10:35 PM

Damn Ramen noodles. I have to order and stock those f***ing things, so quit eating them!

Tinselcat 09-01-2003 11:05 PM

need... food...for...life-making...aaaarrrrgh!!

Cascadia 09-01-2003 11:28 PM

check out my signature then you will know where I am in my college education career. :D :D :D I have a 2 bachalor's degrees in two areas of science. I am so proud of myself. :)

Taloniss 09-02-2003 01:43 PM

Today was my first day of college. It's not bad so far, I'm not living on residence, so it's not a whole lot different from high school for me.

Tinselcat 09-02-2003 02:07 PM

college is great. you get to live a more independent lifestyle with the security of the college community. i hope you have fun!

Mars-Chan 09-02-2003 02:44 PM

You just signed the death sentence of over half of America's college population...including mine :cry:

As for internet connection...UTD has wireless, so I guess that's a bit better :P

Kameko 09-02-2003 06:25 PM

MACHIAS!!! *GLOMP*



:D

College Rocksh!

I may be too young to drink, but computer classes can fry your brain much better than any alcoholic drink... :P



Welcome back, all!

not for me! i'm majoring in english and minoring in studio art. the only alternative would be to get a real job... god forbid...

That Matt Guy 09-02-2003 09:36 PM

:o Don't tell me that I am the only person on this board who works a full time job!

Leo656 09-02-2003 09:41 PM

I work pretty close to a full time job. Sometimes I get less than 40 hours a week but sometimes I've gone as high as 70.

Moomintroll 09-03-2003 03:40 PM

Man, I never left college, and I don't have DSL yet, stupid off-camous living, stupid summer courses, I am always here, GAH
just this year left!

Mars-Chan 09-03-2003 03:56 PM

Moomintroll!!!!!!! *glomps*

HorseTechie 09-06-2003 06:36 PM

Hrmm.. Machias, you need ta stick an option up there for us Master degree/continuing education types, you do. Or should I? :P

But yeah.. that's what I'm doing. I hope to gradute next spring.. and then get a cooler, better paying job.

Psycrow 09-06-2003 08:16 PM

College!!! Woohoo! :D

*falls down in a familar drunken stupor*

It's good to be back. :D

Mars-Chan 09-07-2003 11:14 AM

:lol: Hey, Psycrow...you all right? :lol:

Cascadia 09-07-2003 02:49 PM

In January I might be going to another university for a second bachalor's degree in geology....

This second bachalor's degree might be my gateway for a master's degree.

HorseTechie 09-08-2003 12:18 PM

You like torture, don't yah? Oh, and have you found a job of your liking, Sci-freak?

Mars-Chan 09-08-2003 01:17 PM

Good Luck in January!! :)

No one has hired me.....the job market is horrible right now. I am trying to get to a master's degree. If I do, it will be my greatest accomplishment.

Mars-Chan 09-08-2003 02:25 PM

Keep looking....You'll find something. :D

Cascadia 09-08-2003 02:31 PM

I have been looking for a year now. It has been a Catch-22 situation. If you have an advanced degree, you will most likely get a job. If you only have a bachalor's degree, the only way that you can be hired is if you have several years of experience. The only way to get experience is be hired.
