Post by: Evi on August 28, 2005, 04:40:42 PM: Partying and girls are 2 other things college has to offer. Just don\'t let them interfere with your education and be a dumb ass and drop out like a lot of kids do their first year of college.

Post by: Titan on August 28, 2005, 04:44:10 PM: My academics will definitely come first. I just quit a shitty job and if I fail out of college, I will be working in a place like that for the rest of my life.

Post by: fre4d4 on August 28, 2005, 05:28:47 PM: Glad to hear your studies will come first. So what are you majoring in, and what ya want to do when you grow up ?

Post by: videoholic on August 28, 2005, 05:47:25 PM: So many of my friends failed out. Takes a lot of self control. That of which I had some. I did pretty damn bad in school, but man I had a blast.

Classes I can handle, but full-time school just kicks my ass.

Actually, architectural majors will do that to you. Its hell, I would know.

Post by: THX on August 29, 2005, 07:04:39 PM: hah my manager at Dominos used to be an architectural major but he dropped out and now makes $75k/year making pies.

He explained it to me like this: for every generation there\'s only ONE Frank Lloyd Wright. It\'s one of those positions where you invest tons of time and money in, and the payoff is very little in comparison.
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: JBean on August 29, 2005, 07:38:45 PM: I\'m going for my masters in Architectural Engineering, but I can see why it\'s not for everyone. I work for a really small firm (only 7 of us including 2 licensed Architects) and my bosses make an ass load of money. My dream is to start my own firm, a buddy of mine owns a contracting business and we\'ve always talked about going into the "i\'ll design it, you build it" arrangement in the future.

I\'ll just enjoy all the free lunches in nice restaurants and the traveling to the build sites in the meantime.
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: THX on August 29, 2005, 08:34:05 PM: Good luck with that. If you\'re talented and your work stands out you should have a decent amount of jobs lined up for you.

You\'re right. I\'m taking concerta, which lasts longer. I thought I would just call it ritalin so faggots like you would understand. Like I would lie to impress you.

I was just kidding, bro. You\'ve made worse comments...I wouldn\'t have thought you\'d be offended by that. But whatever.

That\'s about what I ended up with.

You know how many people have asked me my GPA since I graduated? I could count the number of times with my dick, if I were a chick.

Post by: SwifDi on August 31, 2005, 01:38:01 PM: You guys are such faggots... who cares if its real blood or not. "OMFG BULLSHIT!11 LIAR!! WTF?!"

Bitch ass sluts.

Post by: Halberto on August 31, 2005, 05:59:09 PM: Jesus christ it stabbed my cuticle and it went under my skin so i grabbed my finger and it just started dripping.

I honestly dont give a fuck, its not like a battle wound I just thought it would be funny that I could lose blood from homework

Square, we all know this is true because you go to a State school.
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: Halberto on August 31, 2005, 10:48:48 PM: So far to me as long as you read your textbook daily, you\'ll be a 4.0 student. But Ive only been to class once :shy:
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: Phil on August 31, 2005, 11:05:09 PM: Depends on your major, I don\'t have a single textbook.
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: THX on September 01, 2005, 12:16:58 AM: I stopped buying textbooks jr year. I wasted too much money on expensive books that got no use. If later in the semester I really needed it I\'d either AIM a classmate to death or go to Half.com.

Besides, It\'s the 21st century, we should have the damn things in electronic form now. Carrying around a laptop full of "books" is much more sensible than hauling around a backpack with 5 600-page, forest-destroying, papercut-inducing, man-eating, fire-breathing, cookie-baking gonorrhea monsters.
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: Avatarr on September 01, 2005, 01:54:52 AM: That\'s exactly what my teachers are doing. Because of university policy, they still have to perscribe a textbook but most of our course material is digital, we don\'t even touch the textbooks at all. Especially for maths: the maths department made their own notes! Which is good, cuz Calculus and Linear Algebra books start from AU$100 upwards.
Title: I\'m in college
Post by: Avatarr on September 01, 2005, 01:56:18 AM: oh and \'paper-cut inducing\' doesn\'t make any sense. should be \'paper-cut making\'.

haha you bet. in one of my subjects, the teacher actually perscribed his OWN book that he wrote. >_< but he doesn\'t belive in textbooks anyway, so it might\'ve been a joke thing. still, that\'s a purdy convenient JOKE! :p
