    Well guys, A new chapter in my life has begun.

    This past weekend I moved up to college, Oklahoma State University to be exact. Me and a couple of my longtime best buds moved into our deluxe suite (oh yea!) and we're now "on our own." I'll be studying Construction Management. Guess I better learn how to do laundry:cry:

    But between the 40" flat screen mounted on the wall and the PS3 & XBox 360, I think we're doing ok:tu:. NCAA '09 is already getting worn out. I forsee alot of Hot Pockets and Ramen Noodles in my future:d

    Class starts Monday, wish me luck!


    Go Pokes!!!! And let the good times roll:beer:

    A word to the wise - party all you want but make sure you leave enough time to pay attention and get through school okay. You'll thank me in the future!

    College... What an awesome experience to go through. Have lots of fun, but like Justin said, not too much fun. :)

    Exactly, keep focused on school first. I was never able to finish school and I'm playing catch up at 36:cry: On a positive note my last concentration class for my BSM in Business is tonight!!!

    Have no fear, grades are on my mind. The scholarships depend on it!

    C's get degrees man... remember, the classroom is only a small part of the experience and, imho, the least important... meet people, develop relationships, don't ignore school for sure, you need the piece of paper at the end, but the people/friends you make will help you more in the long run

    Good luck and like the guys above said, keep those grades as a top priority. It definately pays off.

    Ditto on that.....I got 4 years down and 6 more years of 249 a month for a piece of paper that I am 40 credits away from. Met a life long friend there, drank alot of beer and had fun, but other thank that I could be buying a new bow 4 times a ear instead. Have fun, but make it count.
