Ahhh.  High school.  Those were the days.  It sucks being a grown up.

I hate high school. I am ready for college even though I dont think my party stamina is up to par. I have been to Starkville, where my college is, the past three weekends and I am already partied out. I have another one this weekend too. I have to do it for the fraternities though. Now, I just found out I have to present my Engineering project to a board of evaluators including the governor. Too much shit going on. I present my senior project next Tuesday then AP exams. My senior project has been really interesting though.. I researched green housing.

Dude.  I just dropped out of high school and got my GED.  Fuck all that shit.

Wait until you're an adult Bill. You'll wish you were back in high school. Hell, you'll wish you were back in high school with the knowledge acquired years after leaving.

Yeah, I hear that constantly. As long as I like my job and have enough money to live nicely, I don't care. My dad works 7 hours a day and earns a nice living and he loves his life, so hopefully the same will apply to me.

[timot_one]

Not everyone has that life.  I love my life, but I hate my job.

Oh Bill...so young...hold on tight cause the next 5 years are gonna FLY by

[CrackerTeg]

Shit. Got that right. It just goes by faster as you age. Next thing you know, you'll be talking with friends you haven't seen in 8 years and be reminiscing of the fun times and realize its been over 10 years since you left. Damn. I just made myself feel old. I'm going to go smoke a cigarette now.

[sherker55]

Im going to be growing my own tobacco this year, I think I will start smoking again...

Depending on your major and if you have to/choose to work or not, college won't be fun, at least not as fun as you'd think. I went in all happy ready to party 7 days a week, but now I'm stuck taking 16-19 credits each semester to graduate in 5 years. Hope your college takes the AP credits, cuz if not I wouldn't even take them. Good luck on that senior project, mine was pretty awesome as well, I had to build a marble sorter.

As a computer engineer, the classes are take are anything but fun. Partying once a week is a great way to blow off steam though. Along with other healthy ways such as working out/running.

Enjoy your last summer of freedom. I wish I could go back to those years. College flew by, and it was Hard work. After college its the "daily grind" for along time.

My school does accept AP scores, luckily you only need a three too. My major is either going to be Business Admin in Banking and Finance or Business Information Systems. I would like to get my masters degree after that, but we will see how that goes. Because of my AP hours I will only have to take 12 hours first and second semester, which I think it will give me time to adjust. I definately have a fun summer planned. I'm leaving for Montana the morning after graduation for two weeks with all my friends.

[Mike]

WTF is in Montana?

[CrackerTeg]

I'm thinking the same thing.
