I am already burnt out from doing class in the morning then working through the evening and doing homework on top of it. I haven't really had a moment of down time for the last 3 or 4 weeks and I am getting like 5-6 hours of sleep with no time to eat breakfast in the morning.
Lol, I love how you’re so desperate to talk yourself up. Anyone can work for their own company; , I had my own company and business name for DJing but you never saw me talk about about “my company” rofl.

Each to his own, I suppose, but my writing style on the internet is no less casual than my writing style elsewhere. I suppose I'm more formal, writing academic papers, but really I don't really go out of my way to maintain grammar and punctuation, let alone spelling.
Thing is that when people speak - usually native speakers, they don't actually speak gramitically correct. My form of writing is oft to speaking as informal rather than structural such. Punctuation is not only for clause purposes but also breath and cognitive based. Incomplete and partial sentences are often used in casual conversation. Single words do have meaning all to themselves. RAN for instance. The whole thing about communication is context, but in conversation past context is already existing, if not personalized that environmentally, or via previous discourse. Language itself is a creation of the progression.

I see what this thread has become

I am just like you in a way. I've dealt with depression and anxiety my entire life. I graduated high school in 1999 and did not go to college because I did not think I could ever pass the math or that college was for me. I went out of the country for the first time in 2003 and something about that just changed my life. I told my mother that I "had" to spend the rest of my life seeing the world. She made it clear to me that working in the construction field I was not going to be making the money necessary for a dream such as that. I'm 2005 I got off my ass and went back to college and on the very first day at school I found a tutor. I had a tutor for each of my math classes and I had to take 3 remedial math classes which I did not even get credit for. I even passed Business calculs, which is like baby calculus for other people, but it was one hell of an accomplishment for me to pass it. By going back to school I participated in 4 study abroad programs which took me to Italy, Austria, China twice. I would often leave from these school trips after they were completed and visit other countries such as Japan, Czech Republic, and Germany. I never in my life imagined that school would take me around the world. While I hated every damn minute of school, I cherished every single moment of opportunity which it gave to me. I just graduated in May with a B.S. in International Business and I just recently moved to Houston with my fiancee. I will be going back to China next year for a year of full immersion into Mandarin. Was school worth it for me? I'm still not sure because I don't have a high salary still in this damn economy but I sure am glad I did it. Guys that I once did construction with told me they never thought I would finish and when I went to my high school 10 year reunion people were very proud of me. I'm sure one day it will pay off. Education matters very much. One of my coworkers did not finish high school and she asked me if China and Korea were "like different countries?" So yes, study not just what they make you take in school that you will most likely forget, but also study other things that interest you and pertain to what you may be doing in a career or you may end up at a business meeting asking if China and Korea are 2 different countries. WTF! Oh yeah, college has TONS OF HOT WOMEN.

It is relevant.
Also I had to form the company because I actually sold something. Unlike you.

I sold my awesomeness. And then didn’t rush to the internet to tell everyone about it. ******** could form his own company and work for it, and it has absolutely no bearing on whether he requires further education or not.

well it is a little about time and stress - italics I beleive are best used for accent and stress - when you are giving accentuation. I tend to use quotes for emphasis - as I actually don't really use much accentuation in my my speech - it is something I should work on though. It is actually because my spoken word is, not that adavanced,yet.
Academically italics are often used catagorically - however I don't do much references or citations in forum posting.
(I really don't care about spelling in this medium)
pkc I already have my own business and have had it since 2006 it was started in 1999 developmentally - and I got the actual legal concepts adminstration and structure done in 2006. I was into researching microcomputer concepts before they hit big. I'm an ideas person, but also an awareness person - that is what I do. I was all over fscratch etc.. concepts, and many of the technologies and drives just before they hit the commercial markets. I'm one of the people out there egg droping your future.
can we not turn this into a ******** thread?

My point was related to this thread. Why should I keep going to school when I have already pretty much secured myself a source of (good) income?

Just a side note I profoundly do believe in animism, acestorialism, magic, and psychic realities - as much as I do science - it is just the mode the world is in right now - " a scientific reality" people are brainwashed to have it as their faith - frankly I think once you get to the root of all things, you realize, there are no rules, the world is unlimited. It is easier to go with the status quo granted, but frankly biochemical and electromagnetic and electrochemical occurrence are environmental effects based on elements both internal and external and causative. Fields effect other fields - I would not deny the capacity to create occurrence whether supernatural or science - as psychotronic weapons ARE REAL. mood weapons, ultrasonic and hypersonic and ulf weapons exist, the list goes on.. you can say that all these people are mad who don't understand the stuff and think voices are coming from no where - fact is though there are mounds and mounds of historical pieces of evidence that explain the same phenomenon , in ways that people understood and utilized those things - just because science can't explain them - note that people who are schizo for instance can have NORMAL brain scans - there is no evidence of physical requirements for schizo behaviours - hallucinations etc.. they can be caused by lack of sleep, starvation, or high levels of chemicals in the body that cause the brain to go into a type of overload reaction --- fact is you are just afraid of what individuality can achieve so you attack it, because you fear it. Artists and the free experience individual thought and creation - if you are afraid of it, it is only because you don't understand it. They say that at times occurence of hallucinations are caused by "misfirings" this whole notion is based on a static reality - there is not static reality - quantum dynamically and multidimensionally it is possible for us to experience alternate realities - there are multispatial folds. Things for instance that reverberate high frequency can yield creation at lower frequencies - inaudible frequencies over atmosphere can create audible frequencies - sound merging with inverse forms can cancel and morph - the stuff ain't complex to do. If I had the resources I could pop voices into an individuals listening. Now I'm not saying this is what is happening - but the capacities exist scientifically. - however, I really don't know what the people are experiencing - it is a serious issue though - a point of unknowing for others.
People such as yourself cling to a scientific reality to elicit control and security at the cost of adventure and freedom from the lattice.
They enjoy and break out your tinfoil hat --- THE STUFF IS REAL THOUGH... what is the big day, this stuff is common news?
Its not like I'm saying arp can get upskirt shots.
Nothing is wrong with chaos - sentiment binds and brings colour to an otherwise grey existence.
