well i am now in college. i moved in today to old dominion university. i'm living in a decent dorm. it's better then some i have seen, and i certainly don't need to complain about it. good stuff. move in was fast. my parents are worse in the city then i am. it's pretty weird for me, coming from the middle of the woods to the city (it's not VERY city, but it is far more urban then i am used to), but all in all it seems pretty fun. i'm just keeping my hand on my butterfly knife.... i need one for each pocket!

but i'm a mechanical engineering student now! woot woot!

just wanted to tell everyone. good evening

 

Mechanical Engineering... tried that once. Classes start on Monday for me... 2 more semesters!!!

 

i got 2 more years woo! college is over rated dont go

 

i got 4 more years, you guys are lucky

 

i thought you were closer to the end snw for some reason. but i will be finishing. i have this dream of a 6 car garage.......

 

What are you going to do (or want to do) w/ your ME degree?

 

best case scenario would be designing engines running off of alternative fuels. that's what i'm really interested in. but i imagine i would probably end up with a job doing something much simpler, like designing some specific component, or designing robots for assembly lines.... who knows.

 

I had wild dreams of what to do w/ my ME degree. My calc professor's dad designed roller coasters...

One of my buddies is finishing his degree & already works for a company that designs the parts for prosthetic arms & legs.

 

my grandfather had a me degree--was saludatorian rensselear polytechnic---my dad was chemical eng fro rpi----my dad sold freons and tetra-ethyl lead----and my grandfather designed and completed the atomic cannon---still is classified as was made obsolete by the bombing of hiro and nagasake.....but he ran an arsenal for the govt....just think --you too can run an arsenal for the govt as an engineer if ya make something big and hugeous.....grandpoppa also made grandfather clocks.....works and all....excellent ones.......go figger---alt fuels, blowing things up, all kinds of things from engineering---including how to think----the biggest of all--how to think and figger things out !!!!

 

my friend is a mechanical engineer. its hard **** you need to really be smart, so far he was had an internship with a plastics company that molds toyota and honda and other various interior car parts, and this year he worked at international i think in the performance section always had engine dyno's going and **** sounded neat.

 

hey snw guess what, fool

I GOT IN at PAlos heights!!!

Idk like 2 weeks ago i got a call and i got a dumpload of scholarships and grants they had "found" so now I'm leaving tomorrow morning and classes start next week. Unfortunately I haven't had enough time to plan out what to do with my Z but when I come back Christmas break I might consider taking a uhaul with it up to palos, it might beat a plane ticket price and that way i can haul my z. is it hard to work on the car in january - may? Even if it is, i'm still moving to IL for the school year, it better be BITCHIN there!!

 

its pretty cool helps if your 21 so get a fake bro. seriously. i'll be near you very near and you never said what college! also its pretty rough working on a Z in jan, but if its just wiring that is left by then we can probably bring into my heated garage for a few days and finish that **** up i know plenty of people with trailers etc. plus my cousin works for penske so he might let me steal a trailer.... haha

 

i'm going to this private college called Trinity Christian its in Palos Heights. I don't think my roomates have a car yet, but if they do that'd be awesome, and that'd be awesome to see ur Z's!

 

sorry bro.... i sold all mine. my dad still has his though its fairly comparable to my 280 i sold sept a different color and not nearly as nice of an under body or engine bay or exhaust, but his interior is mint paint used to be freaking awesome but it has garage rash now lol. but i got the bike and a plain ole' 240sx haha. im going to start saving i think putting a little R&R into the 240 maybe sell it for a profit and get back in the Z game, that or i could sell the bike probably make a profit sell the SX for the same price maybe 1 or 2 hundred more and build a sick *** 240Z just get a clean roller chassis and get an RB or SR in there. or keep the 240sx actually and sell the bike and build a Z. idk i could do alot of things with enough alcohol. lol. also idk if your college will allow first years to bring a car with you alot of college's wont let freshmen do that. also private colleges hand out scholarships like candy. i got one for like 8.5k a year or something i think.

 

damn... you are just as close as i figured... check it



haha. i frequently ride the bike right by there but i stop at south west highway but i come down cal-sag if i just would stay on cal-sag and go 1.5 block past southwest i woulda hit your college... and i have one before. but only once lol. surprised i never noticed there was a college right there

 

righteous dude, i'm all packed, and i'm leaving on the 830 flight this morning. They allow freshman to have cars, so i'm thinking me and my roomates might pitch in to buy a beat $200 ford that chicago might have lying around. it's an option...yeah i'm stoked, i don't even think i'm going to go to sleep. you can do stuff with enough alcohol? well i packed my favorite and only surviving shot glass so...see you around hahahah

 

yeah let meknow when your there maybe i'll check this **** out this weekend on the ninja

 

hey fool i'm here its humid as a cambodia but it's okay. I can't connect to battle.net with this gay-*** school, i'm pretty upset so i'm gonna have to find a diff way to kill time. my roomie isn't here yet so w/e.

 

Uhhh... it's called "STUDY"

 

i would be pretty bored without a connection here too. try the unsecure network if there is one. that's what i had to do

 

lol school doesnt start till monday for pretty much ALL colleges. so whats there to study? haha didnt go to the first class yet

 

same here. monday. but i'm liking college right now. i finally got a power strip, so i was able to plug in both my speaker systems, and it is beast. very, beast. i've never had them both going at once before. but the whole surround sound effect really makes it nice to sit here and read

 

well yeah i want to go out and see chicago and have a good time but i don't have a car and i havent picked my classes yet so i have a buncha work to do...i hope this isn't what the next 4 years are gonna be like haha...
