LOL @ UF Orientation, did you feel like you lost a couple days of your life you will never get back?  Most useless compulsory activity ever.  Well maybe those team building things they do for corporations could come close.

HAHAHAHA! Yes! Mostly pointless presentations, for me anyways. I just wanted my schedule! Even then I had to go with some backup classes

Cool, my sisters were there too.

YAY! Looks like I finally get to play again tonight! Now that my family is done visiting for graduation and I got my UF orientation out of the way!

@cbre88x - I love that sig! Had to grab one for myself off that site...I guess I really haven't played as much as I thought. Oh well, time to fix that now that my summer officially starts!

ConsFEARacy in my TF2 ? I must play tonight now and ruin him.

Don't thank me. Thank fuck duck (I think..). I got it from him.

When I went some of the people that run the thing, the UF students, supposedly grown up mature people, with the wisdom of a college education etc., anyways they put on a play about the dangers of STDs and drinking.  I think there was singing involved.  I was embarrassed for them.  Most cringe-worthy event of my college days.

Yep! They did that same thing! By that time I was so tired I was dozing off the entire skit.

@Eschatos - Really?!? This past weekend???

@Vandamguy - It is soooo on!!! I still don't have a working mic, though. I just ordered a new one, so I should be fully functioning sometime later this week!

@cbre88x - Oh, ok!

@All - must I address this entire thread in this post?!?!?!?

@All - must I address this entire thread in this post?!?!?!?

Lol. That's a senior tradition at Texas A&M, but I don't think they quite understand; they never do it right...

Yup, they just got back yesterday evening.

Whats your major FEAR?  I was journalism for 3 years of my 4.5 there.  It was impossible to get any classes, you eventually have to become best buds with the department head.  However business is easy.  All classes are online, and must of the learning is done at Tutoring Zone reviews and what not.  Also you can buy notes.  Smoking Notes.  Remember that name!

[ConsFEARacy]

You'll have to ask them which group they were in...I was in "B." I don't believe there was anyone that knew anyone else in my group, so we probably wouldn't know each other anyways...

@Surf - I just looked up that elephant walk thing...OH MY GOD! That is just wrong...no frats for me anyways...

Also, I'm going for computer science in the college of engineering. I thought about computer engineering, but I find the programming the most fun. I already learned about the tough class scheduling, unfortunately. I will definitely be visiting the department head quite often. Just took note of/bookmarked those sites as well!

[shipero]

I think I'm going to be stuck at work late so I more then likely won't be there tonight.

[Surf314]

Good luck, I got a couple friends that went through that department and they are doing quite well.  One works for GE and the other is the head of a team that keeps Exxon's data center running.  They scouted him early, gave him a couple internships and started counting his time for the company from the day they scouted him, so when he started he already had a couple of raises ;D.

He's got a bunch of cool stories about working for them and they send him all over the world.  He was telling me about the setup he gets going to Russia, sometimes I'm a bit jealous.  I was going to be in a computer related major when I started, but my grandma is a writer and is good friends with Edna Buchanon, one of the most famous crime reporters of all time and currently a crime novelist.  So I went Journalism, then got sick of it and how inept its become so I made my minor my major.

I'll likewise be a question mark like Vandam, Dad's are sort of a big deal.

No clothing gifts ever. Tacky, so tacky.

Wow! That's great! I'm guessing Business was originally your minor? I went to the college of engineering information session and they were talking about how many of their students get internships and jobs very early. I was sort of surprised...and excited!

@Vandam and Karth - Don't worry, I forgot about the Logitech headset I use for my PS3...it should do for now.

[Riosan]

I'll probably be there, hopefully I can fix my connection problem my FNF. Got my mic working again.

[Evil Cheese]

I just spent half a day making network cables. >  I need to blow something up. Preferably a fictitious, computer-generated something.  :>

[Wedge]

I'll probably be there.  Just sort of meh right now, because I'm working on getting a new PC soon.  My old video card should be back today at least.  Already got a nice old 20" Trinitron CRT to go with it...
