    Dude, college is good and all but not Temple. They are lame because my ex got accepted there and she is stupid evil *** ***** that has her head shoved up her **** and the music abilities of a walrus . Seriously, you don't want to be in an environment filled with ****** like her. Go to a real school.:mad: :mad: :mad:

    I'm headed off to Baylor University in Waco on August 21. I'm excited, but also very nervous :(

    Any other Pre-med students out there?

    Well, my college path is a tad convoluted (just a tad)

    This September, I'm attending Mount Hood Community College for 2 years. The first two years at any major university are spent on core classes and requisites anyway, so instead of paying $8,000 for two years, I'm going to a CC for for two, spending less than $6,000 for TWO years.

    After I get my associates degree, I'm transferring over to a major university (not yet determined) to finish out the major (be it a bachelors, masters, or PhD)

    I plan on majoring in some facet of English, like Journalism, with a minor in Film or Teaching. I possibly might get an English degree, then go into teaching, or something. I'm not quite sure. I just know the two things I love to do more than anything are write and direct.

    Neither is a stable, dependable income. So I might end up teaching to support my other passions. I dunno.

    I'm going to Arizona State University. I wanted to go to NYU but ASU is major cheap and has much hotter females on campus. God Bless the Females!!! ;) ;) ;)

    After attending one of those lame ass computer-geared trade schools I've decided to go to a real school. It's going to be another year before I can attend so I'm looking around right now. So far, Bloomsburg Univ. looks pretty good. (I'm moving to Hazleton soon)
