I'm going back to school this fall. I'm either going to finish up and get my nursing degree or go for a journalism degree. I'm up for a job now with a prominant Texas magazine so if I get that then it will be for journalism. Community College to start off with to get me back in the swing of things then on to either the University of Texas or Southwest Texas State.

One time I was travelling down in California and saw a university in San Deigo. It was a beautiful looking campus and right near the beach, IIRC. And then you go down to the beach and ya see all of those beach babes. The whole thing looked so great, especially to a Canadian who was still trying to thaw out from a cold winter. That's the place to do a degree. Then again, I probably would never have gone to any of the lectures.

I'm graduating at my home place.

I'll be among the top 5 graduates of my age group at school. Hopefully. It's the best school around.

Studying Mechanical Engineering at Montana State University.

I'm taking a Computer Science class this fall to see if that appeals to me more, though.

MSU is a nice campus - fairly small student population, located in Bozeman in south central Montana. The scenery here is gorgeous, there are mountains nearby for skiing. I think it's a great campus. I was originally going to go here for my freshman year and then transfer to Washington State, but I liked it here so much I decided to stay.

Tiamat, That's great inspiration and hope for me too .
I'm 21 already, and not yet in school. I've finished my 12y school here, and finished my service in the army, but i feel like i'm some kind of freak oldie or something.. almost everyone in the university i'm trying to get into next monday (i'm scared to death!) is 18 or so.. Don't know what i'm gonna do if i fail but.. i'm not just gonna sit around anymore, i'm gonna check my opportunities abroad then. I know i'd get in easy, but since i discovered the uni i'm trying to get in 3 weeks ago... i haven't had sufficient time to study. I'll give it my best shot, wish me luck!

After all if i fail, i could come to your unis to ruin your lives .

I am graduating soon. Our school has one of the best human material around , but our infrastructure sucks ass. I am among te 30 best students in school I suppose , since I am lazy. next year, I will almost surely (got a huge SAT )join arguably Israel's best school , which is the Israeli Institute of technology. I'll be studying chemistry , a B.A. .

Nah -- we just wanted to deflate your ego. It's not out of jealousy.
