I'm double majoring in Computer Science and Physics. Ok, ok... now yeah I know it's tough shit, but I made it through! I graduate from my university on May 17 with a Double Bachelors! Then off to a sweet internship for the summer and back for graduate school for Computer Science.
BTW, who's going to EXIT next week for Armin van Buuren??

Well, I go to a community college right now (doing terrible)
I went in with the named major of Computer Engineering. I soon learned that lines of code were possibly the most boring and tedious shit that has ever been created!
So I sat around for a while do exactly fuck off, untill I finally figured, what the hell, follow my dream.
So I'm going to take a year off of school and save up money to go to a technical university to get my bachelors in Recording Arts!
I love being able to say "Oh, your majoring in computers? have fun in cubicles! I'm majoring in Trance!" lol. I'm hoping to be a freelance Trance producer!

I graduated Uni last year, finishing with a Specialist in Human Biology. My marks werent good enough so I never moved on to Med School. Right now I work as a Trainer in Financial Services (Banking), and am applying to Teachers College, to teach senior level Biology and Chemistry (i hope).

Right now i plan to major in comp sci but who knows what will be after 4-5 years.. I intern as a Network Admin which pays pretty much shit cuz im too passive to go ask for a raise so I shark pool tourneys and play texas hold'em and blackjack for an income.
BTW, even though my job pays shit, its fun as hell and i got tons of hookups in "the industry" which is rocketing the price of my new rig down to the low 1000 range - will be the greatest computer to set foot on america (for about a week until something new comes out). So I learn a lot, make some friends, basically go to work and hang out and build shit and fix problems and then make money on weekends.

1st year at Uni, Majoring in Economics. Minoring in who knows what...probably gonna end up being German or Psychology. However, after having a Long and loud argument with my father...he tells me that I have no dream to do something in my life and that i have NO direction and no plans of getting a job)....dont ask..i don't know what kind of shit hes on. I think he said hes just gonna give me a grand to buy some technics so I would stop drooling over them online and go do something constructive with me time. Hmm..i think i'm gonn have to hold him to that...although i have a job and am saving every penny i make to buy a set.
