Well I'm going to be starting school in Minnesota soon, so I have no idea if I'll be able to be as active as I have been once school begins. I will be taking computer up there and will get internet but I have no idea if I will have time to be on as much.
It's hitting me hard that i'm gonna be leaving all the friends that i have here and family that I have here. Of course it's all about growing up its just gonna be difficult at the beginning I guess.
Well anyhow I just thought i'd post that, i still have plans for the GP, hopefully will get a job up there that pays well that can help fund those wants.

Pfft, you'll love it... pending who you live with. You'll also find that the only time you don't have to goof around is either before tests or finals.

yes college can be hell depending on who you live with, i recomend living with girls, or get to know some girls up there then live with them, currently i live with one girl compared to 3 guys MUCH better.

i do NOT reccomend living with girls. My experience was the complete opposite of andrew's. The two of them were terrible to live with. and ugly...lol.
Youre going to have a blast man! and i promise, there will be all sorts of free time.
Have a blast man!

no time for the computer? The computer is the best excuse to not do school work. lol College is lots of fun and you will soon realize that its not all about the classroom and there is a lot of fun stuff to do.

Sucks you have to get a job right away. When I went, a job held me back from the real excitement of collge. Those kids that have rich parents or are spoiled, have the best time!

IMO, friends make the biggest difference no matter where you are. Pick them carefully. Also be very careful where and when you bump your system. We don't want to see a post that someone tore up your car for a few $100s in stereo stuff from the pawn shop. I would leave it at home, until you find out where your car will be parked while away.

i definately agree with chevman friends make all the difference in the world. Especially with my going to school out in Waukesha and me being from milwaukee i didnt know anyone out there and i met some pretty cool guys and it made my college experience 100x better than i thought it would be!!

Well I'm up here in Minnesota for college and I gotta say, the rooms alright, but 2 of my roommates are loud, annoying, and just plane sick of them even after 1 day, the other guy is cool though and I like him but I'm caught up wondering if I should stay or should i leave? It took alot to move the desks/tv's fans/food/and everything in and I would h8 to go to a diffrent room here and have even worse roommates..
