Well, I quite school. I had no need for it. And then I got a alps printer for christmas. And then I was bootlegging ID's for my friends and their friends. But I grew out of that. And then I had no money, I applied my ass off at places, And Cigna was the one willing to pay me enough. Most people wanted to pay me 35-45,000, I wanted at least 5, Cigna gave me 60, And then a huge raise to 80. CIgna is a huge insurence company. Bigger then Aetna. Aetna didnt want me.

i'm gonna be majoring in computer science, like programming, networking, or some shiat like that...

In about two months I'll have a master degree in cs. I'll do another year to become a candidate of cs, and then perhaps the additional three years to get a ph.d. (that is, if I can find some university abroad that will have me ).
In conjunction with my studies I recently visited several companies in San Francisco. Cisco gave new employees around 50000$ a year, while one of the small companies we visited paid between 95000$ and 130000$.

I've a 2nd degree study in computers sciences
And i've work in Luxembourg for 2 years

I'm a doing CS Major at university of Waterloo in Canada.

WOW, I'm surprised how many people on this board are into CS )
Currently doing internship at a local company. Doing some boring coding in Java.

I'm studying computer science (for the big fat pay cheque at the end of it), and I am surrounded by first-class grade A GIMPS every time I go into lectures, which is why I hate it.
