[QUOTE=Permanent Solution;14316821]omfg I'm going to quit engineering I swear to god =\

Nah I only have like 4 classes left till I graduate so I might as well stick with it. Alas, so far I'm still like 5 credits short of staying full time next semester so I need to get on that.

But then I still have a year for my masters after that so MEH.

You?[/QUOTE]

Do what my flatmate last year did and take six one-credit gym classes this semester to stay full-time. He finished his major/minor stuff, but he didn't have enough credits to graduate (he was just short by a semester-ish) so he's taking classes like Women & Gender Studies, Gymnastics & Tumbling (he's proud to be the only dude in that class), Tai Chi (there are only two dudes in that class), Pilates (again, two dudes), etc.

The funny thing is that he's had the same girl for years and there's no doubt in my mind that they're going to be engaged soon but man, what a last semester of school to have :lol:

As for me, school's very time-consuming. It's not hard, just loads of busywork, which is lamesauce to the max. It's like doing those pathetic worksheets in high school when teachers didn't have anything better for you to do, and your time was being wasted doing them... well, it's basically that this semester, times university. But overall not too shabby yet.

[QUOTE=Permanent Solution;14316855]Haha, I only have a little over a year to go of my undergrad at least. Time flies =\[/QUOTE]

Seriously. I was a freshman yesterday.

What the hell happened?

I'm looking at med right now. Gonna be a fun 8+ years....

refl. if i wasn't getting a head start on grad school my last semester I'd have to do something like that. I feel cool that I basically finished my engineering degree in like 3 years though :cool:

My semester is kinda the opposite of yours. I don't have to do much for like 2 weeks, then all of a sudden I have like 4 hw assignments and 2 labs due all in one week. My teachers are all pretty lax about due dates though which is nice.

The downside of this semester is I have 2 tests this week and I feel way unprepared for both of them having like...2 homeworks all sem in the classes.

so yeah, sleep is fun

which is where i'm off to

so hasta luego

probably not for a few weeks if I don't get busy/lazy

:wave:

Can anyone in here make .gif images from YouTube videos and resize them?

I need like a 5 second clip from a YouTube movie as my avatar. Any takers? IM me plz.

Man Im still in high school. High school = the easy.
I dont know what Im going to do at university...probably some kind of subject that wont lead to definitie career like english or art :\

College sucks. Don't go.

I hate it.

Then again, I went to a school I don't fit into at all, which is why I'm transferring. I'll get back to you next year on that one.

Ok sounds good, Ive still got like 4 years anyway, so no rush.

I'm kind of considering not going to college.

Get a trade.

I'm going for History/Band/Music teacher.

Shifty way to go, but what the **** else should I do? I've got no skills anywheres else.

Teachers get like piss all money though thats the problem.

Yeah I know.

But whatever I guess. I think I'll still be doing Bagpipe gigs, so there's my source of spending money ($150-250 per gig, usually a gig means playing for 15-30 minutes, and standing around for another 15-30 minutes). My best pay ever was $150 for 45 seconds of playing :p F[I]u[/I]ckin' crazy money, but gigs only happen once every 2 or so weeks, if you're looking for them.

Let's all ROFL @ Matt in this picture.

For sure man.

Anyways I'm out.

I'm going to school, no more playing Muse stuff on guitar for me :(

Haha, damn, three years to finish engineering is no small feat.

Sucks about your semester, though - at least for me I know when stuff is due, so I get into sort of a routine. Experiments are due every Friday, homework due Tuesday, current event article (:rolleyes:[font=verdana])[/font] every Monday, etc. See what I mean by busywork? The labs are pretty cool and the homework gets me to actually read the assigned readings, but come on, the last time I did a current event for anything was back in sixth grade, and I had to do one a month, not one a week, heh.

Yikes about your tests... best of luck, though.

Well, did you actually visit the campus and go on a tour?
Or did you just go to the one that gave you the most scholarship money?

For all the dudes and ladies talking about college and university: hey, it's not for everybody, and some people will just go straight to the workforce right after high school. It's totally up to you and what you'll be happy with, but I would still encourage you guys to apply, and if you don't feel like going away right off the bat, then take a year or two at a community college and then transfer your credits.

In deciding, just make sure you keep as many options as you can open. Don't restrict yourself to one or two options, or feel that your decision is binding - it never is. Find out as much as you can. Talk to students who go there, ask about what they did and how they did, do well on your standardized tests (if you have 'em, anyway), and go take a campus tour. You want to see and walk around at the place you're going to spend the next few years of your life at, so you might as well feel good about being there, you know? Walking around the school I go to now was honestly one of the biggest reasons why I go to the school that I go to, aside from the multitude of stuff that they offer.

I visited the campus. I went because its one of the best chem schools in the nation.

Now I hate chemistry, want to drop out of college, applied to BU to transfer, and changed my major to music. :lol:

I hope I get into BU. I'll be MUCH happier in the city where I belong.

Good choice of BU, though - one of my neighbors back home went there for his undergrad.

It's a very solid school. It's got everything I want; liberal atmosphere (by that I mean there's all different groups of interesting and unique people), in a big city, very good school, lots of people, etc.

I'm basically going to be in Boston on a daily basis, just chillin'. :D

I'm not sure if I'm going to switch my major back to chem or not. I honestly have no idea.

If youre calling me annoying, shut the fu[size=2]c[/size]k up. I have a myspace myself, I dont hate on the idea or anything, just a select few people that I happen across on it. Its not like if I saw them in real life i wouldnt say 'that dude sucks'.

also, the Penguins are probably for sure moving from Pittsburgh now. Weak.

hey guys hows it going
