Hey Raptor,

Will you be able to work on one piece of school work at a time, or will you like 4-table term papers?

[/ QUOTE ]

no i go to a spoiled rich kid school with a bunch of retarded people that have trouble counting to 7 and cant spell louis vuitton, even though thats all they own.. damn they are gorgeous though.. its a good motivator to go to class.. always something to keep you occupied.

oh, basically, what im saying, is that i wont have to do very much work. so ill be able to play a good amount of poker, party a lot, meet all these girls, and all around be useless for the next 4 years. pretty much what i was gonna do anyway, except i get a degree with this one. holla

Women's studies is full of straight man-haters. Go with the old standby: school of nursing. They come with the uniform and everything.

Hey jerkass. I went to college too... and it's more of an abandoned dungeon than a cave. You may be right about art history somewhere else, but in Berkeley, art history, women, hair, everywhere, everywhere...

This thread deserves a hijack. Everything that needs to be said has been said.

i haven't read the whole thread yet man but i'll give you my two cents fresh from your post


I put myself through college and I took my sweet ass time doing it. I took time off, changed majors 3 times and took a total of 6 years to graduate, and I had the time of my life and it was the most amazing experience I've ever had. I also banked a massive GPA that I can use to go to grad school at any point should i decide to do that. The reason for my GPA was because I took it slow and took classes I really liked and didn't overload w/ a ton of requirements for some major my dad wanted me to have that I really wasn't passionate about.

I have friends who finished in 4 years on mommy and daddy's dime and got mediocre grades and with majors that ammounted to little more than their parents idea of good job training. I don't want to go so far as to say that my experience was better or I am a more well rounded person or anything, but i definately did not admire their slave mentality.


So my advice to you would be to do what makes you happy. If you want to play poker right now, take a year off of school and play poker. If it gets old you can always go back, and with the way you've been going i doubt the scholarship is really going to be a big issue, just be saving or buying stocks (i'm sure you already have) so you have a safety net.

You may want to do like unarmed and go travel if thats your thing, do what makes you happy. I would seriously advise against getting a bunch of C's in school...you will want that fat GPA at some point.


Good luck man
