You might already know this but the extended ME3 ending is being released tomorrow supposedly... Just thought that if you didn't know you would want to.

At 22, I should be nearly done with college, but I spent so much time screwing around. I need to figure out how I'm going to afford 40k a year when I transfer. Q_Q
GAH! $40K/semester?!? Is this a private college? Do you receive financial aid? $40k/year. It should be around $20k/semester. I get some financial aid, but it won't cover it on its own.

Oh. Yeah...Seems like $3,500 to $4,000 is the average for financial aid recipients, or at least the ones that I knew. You Easterners pay too much a semester. Anyhow, do you have a part-time job already?

I live in the Northeast US. Schools around here aren't very cheap unfortunately. I have no job yet, but the school I'm transferring into I may not even need to get one. The school I am transferring has a co-op program that will get me work in my major. I've read it's possible to earn up to 10k a semester doing that.

State schools are relatively cheap but those costs are rising too...

Too bad I didn't keep my grades up. With that kind of tuition I could have gone to University of Pennsylvania, but yeah, I don't have the gpa for that.

No need to be ashamed, little buddies! Graduating at twenty-three isn't the end of the world. Five year grads! WOOT!

If I put in a lot of summer semesters, I could probably graduate by the time I'm 25. I wish I hadn't dropped out for a year.

I think I might have taken a year break after high school then dropped out for another year. I don't rememeber. >_>
As far as the major switching goes, I'm not sure. When I graduate from current school I will have an associate's degree in Computer Science, so my major will be pretty much set when I transfer.

watching the FF concert that was linked, its pretty cool, but the audio seems a bit off, but I think it is the recording device's fault...
I have been to 3~4 FF concerts (including FF11 festivals) and while the concerts in a fan-festival are ok, they surely dont compare to their concert counterparts, but it is interesting seeing another take of some of these songs regardless.
on that note, "Draco and Maria" and "Distant Worlds" worlds with actual opera singers live is just.... cant be described with words....

I think SE will probably release a better recording of that eventually on their youtube channel.

I'm afraid I don't know. My college has counselors and advisors for that type of thing.

You guys are talking about being 22/23 graduating college, like it makes you old... And I'm 28, wanting to go BACK to college and basically start it all over. >_>
My last degree didn't really do anything for me, and odds of that changing are slim. At least it didn't cost me anything.

The arrangement was beautiful, I guess you have a very narrow artistic interpretation if you can't appreciate renditions that part from the use of classic instruments only.

I'd probably fit in at high school still because I look like I'm 16 years old. I'm supposed to accept that fact that it'll be a good thing someday.

True, Slip... But I was also working 20-30 hours a week on top of school. And with what I was making at the time, the extra 10-20 hours a week, over the course of the year, probably barely outweighed the cost of the tuition (if I'd had to pay it).
So really, I just missed out on a bit of social time, if anything.

I'm afraid to ask...Was it a liberal arts major, general business, social work....something like that?

To take a nap or not.. that is the question.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
