Kovak

Whats up doggs

how were your grades last year?

I got 2 A's and 2 B's

I just bought 21 books that cost me 400 dollars

most of them are primary source though which is pretty cool

Monkeyfeet

Classes went extremely well last semester.

This semester I am most excited for my dystopian literature and comparative religions class

potatoe

i graduated
because i am the best

Sars_Boy

I got mostly Bs and one C

it was not as good as anticipated

Kovak

I am reading a book for class titled

The Epic History of Biology

I'm pretty excited for it

redhead

I dropped 3 classes and got a C in the one I didn't drop

I am so cool

Kovak

i thought this thread title was kind of clever

KetBra

Classes went okay last semester.

This semester I am going to get raped by Quantum Mechanics. 10 hour long weekly assignments? Jesus Christ.

Charles Kinbote

I am taking pretty cool classes and am road-tripping back to college with my roommate

go team shank

Quetzi

Got 2 As, a B+, a B, and a D- last semester

In my defense, that class was supposed to be changed to a pass/fail

But my adviser is terrible and also retarded

I'm mostly taking requirement type stuff for this semester. I guess I've got a couple good history classes in there and a Shakespeare class.

I was supposed to be taking a directing class but it got canned.

Last semester of High School, fuck yeah. And it's finally just starting to get better. Only thing that changed in my schedule is AP Economics to AP Govt.

#pipe

I finished highschool 8 years ago

Airking850

A+, A+, A+, A mahfuckas

One semester away from graduating University with highest honours

Dog

school is for chumps

i just finished reading stanley fish's essay rhetoric

it was crazy and he didn't really say anything at all

next i'm gonna read twelfth night and then some plato probably

i hate rhetoric class

but then i get to hunt down examples of type and cover design which i admire for show and tell, and that is just fucking awesome

MrMonroe

nice move, Thorgot.

Yeah, I'm gradumacated.

School starts again next year. Law school. It makes you important, I'm told.

edit: Orik oh gods I'm sorry Plato is so awful. He's such an ass and he gets everything wrong but reading it makes you really smart.

I almost had a nervous breakdown my second year because of The Republic.

Kovak

i like plato a lot

Quetzi

I'm not a fan of Plato, really

Twelfth Night however, is a wonderful play

Kovak

the republic is rather wonderfully written

some of the ideas may be wrong

but he writes well

Orikaeshigitae

it's the gorgias and phaedrus

i've read part of the republic and it's basically a plan for a government which is a huge dick move in every respect

Kovak

I feel like overall the actual subject and end goal of the republic is not the true benefit of the book

but rather the experience of reading it

Doodmann

Last semester I got 4 A's and one grade that has yet to be reported. This semester I'm taking a ton of classes again because it seemed to work out, but I don't go back until the end of January so until then I have fuck all to do.

Monkeyfeet

Monroe where do you got to law school?

no that's the point

did you read Utopia

it takes the concept of a social contract to its natural conclusion and says "here check out how amazingly perfect this society is"

while the entire time incredibly blatantly saying "reconsider your definition of government please"

Raneados

I graduated in december

I am currently gainfully employed and working toward better employment

woo rane woo

thorgot

for some reason i signed up for another english course ("The Research Essay")

what was i thinking

i meant to sign up for "The American Graphic Novel"

Kovak

rane if you save up like i think maybe 1000 dollars

you could fly to utah

go snowboarding for a few days

and afford everything I think

i think it goes like

planeticket: 400 ish? maybe less?
Snowboarding per day: bout 80
Food per day: 20ish?

Snowbeat

I really fucked up my last semester

so I'm trying to repair my grades this one

I've got mostly A's and B's, but I got one F and one D

Kovak

Also I really like the concept of forms

they're not perfect but I think they are very good way to think of things

Monkeyfeet

I am trying to decide if I should apply for the honors college at my school.

On the one hand fuck more school. On the other I figure I need to look nifty if I go want to go to law school.

Raneados

kovak I would probably drive up there

Kovak

Raneados

Cold Salmon and Hatred

I'm only a little worried at how I'm going to afford $17,000 a year for school

Kadith

I stopped going to one class half way through the semester except for the tests so I got a C+ in that and then a couple of Bs and an A in my other classes and As in my labs.

This semester I get to switch from the Computer Science courses to awesome physics courses.

Because CS is for lame faggot neck beards.

Physics is for cool neck beards.

CptKemzik

This past semester was my best yet, 3.65 bringing my cumulative up to a 3.2. However this friday I am starting at another school I transfered to so (for better or worse) the gpa wont carry over, plus not all of my credits were given an equivalent class so I dont know what the fuck to register for; hoping orienation clears that up.

Hopefully though I will get to start what i want to major in earnest though.
