Title: Moving off to college
Post by: Lamborghini_diablo on August 26, 2010, 03:20:56 PM
Well, it's finally that time for me. Tomorrow I will be moving into my new home away from home. I'm pretty excited and anxious right now... I've never had to experience moving before this. I've only moved once in my life, and i was like, 6 months old at the time. Going to be very weird leaving the house I've spent my entire life in.  :-\

Thankfully, it's only a 90 minute drive away, so I can come back on free weekends if I want to, so I don't feel completely "stranded and alone"

I'll still be active on here and the game in general (which you all just lost), but my life is going to be a lot busier... so just don't expect me to be around quite as often as I am during the summer.  :P

Now, lets just hope my roomates like metal.  ;D

If this is your third year of college what were you doing for the first two  ???.

It's a little weird at first, but it gets better pretty quickly (assuming there's not terrible problems with your roommate right away, of course ;) ).

I went to a nearby community college to get my associates. Got all the basic 101 classes done at a cheaper school, so I can really focus on my major at the more expensive one.  ;)

I knooooow, it's going to be SO nice having REAL internet!  ;D

I was on campus applying for some jobs, and wanted to try out their wi-fi speed. I got around 10mbps down, on my phone. thats 10x better than what Ive ever gotten here.

Skip class and play rs dude. I have 90 herb banked for the xp weekend and I'm mining granite for my 3k crims.

Ditto here-the only problem is that I had to pack for both Canada and College.  Are you planning on starting a playgroup at your college?
Title: Re: Moving off to college
Post by: Lamborghini_diablo on August 26, 2010, 10:32:37 PM
Unless I find some people who are either interested or already play, No. I'm bringing a starter deck in case someone wants to see what it's like, but I'm leaving the rest of my cards home. I can always pick up my cards if I need to when I come home for a weekend.

Also, the anxiety is beginning to build.....  :-\

Seriously, don't be.  You've already got two years under your belt, so you know what you're doing.  I'm heading off to college four hours away from home, with only Master's Commission to compare it to.

If God thinks you're ready, you are ready, my friend, no questions asked.

And if things get too crazy over the next few weeks, you can always contact sauce.  He's there for you.

Well, I'm all moved in, waiting for the next welcome week activity. I got my computer all hooked up, and out of curiosity did a speed test...

Now you can't blame failing the fight caves on the lag.

I've melee'd the jad before. Claws + Veng + Turmoil + Soul Split = unstoppable. When I get overloads via the 2x weekend I'm going to melee the entire caves.

Crazy indeed.  What's PESO?  (one letter away from my favorite sauce)

PSEO. Post Secondary Education Option. college credits in high school.

Post by: SomeKittens on August 27, 2010, 05:27:46 PM
That doesn't count!  Call us when you've got a dorm and a roommate.

Yep, pesto.

It totally counts. I'm the only one under 25 in my chemistry class!
Title: Re: Moving off to college
Post by: SomeKittens on August 27, 2010, 05:29:58 PM
If that counts, I'm in my fourth year of college.
Title: Re: Moving off to college
Post by: Rawrlolsauce! on August 27, 2010, 05:31:51 PM
lolwut? PSEO counts towards college. I'm taking college classes at the college. I don't go to the high school. I'm getting college credit. I'll have my Associate's Degree at 17. :).

The rest test will be what bandwidth is like during the first week or finals week.  I don't even bother trying to log on the first week of classes.
