    Teavana is the greatest. Get the white arivedic (sp?) cha and mix it with the blue samurai something.

    Got my one-month unlimited Eurail pass in the mail today. Only 19 days left, I'm more excited for this than I am to graduate in 2 weeks :D
  3. I thought it was funny that he said the "Last 6 presidential election winners", but then said "Obama-Obama-Bush-Bush-Clinton-Clinton", which is only three people, just to try to make the number look bigger.
  4. Pizza, nuggets, fries, salad, basically anything fried... Mmmm
  5. Looking forward to it then :) Just watched the second episode, pretty good ending to it.

    Do you mean puns that rock?

    As an engineer, you may 'only' make 60k/year to start, but there is a much higher range of salaries you can achieve, as opposed to 4 years of sales. With a 4 year engineering degree, you may be making 120k+ after 10 years of working. You're not going to get that high without a degree, even with your 4 years extra of sales work. You'll be able to pay off that 60k debt (which is a very high number, after scholarships/part time work/etc) a lot quicker. Since we're talking about engineering, a person with a degree will always get the job over someone with 4 years of sales or whatever else experience. If you want a STEM job paying 60k+ a year, you're going to need a degree. I'm not saying you should graduate with no work experience. Internships are pretty abundant for engineering, and are the perfect opportunity to get work experience during college, and offset a large portion of the cost. I'm in a very large university, in the college of engineering. 80% of the people I know get internships over the summer. If you can't/don't want to get an internship, there's other options like a research assistantship or lab worker. Like others said, it's not going to be easy, and you'll have to work towards it like its a full time job. But, if you put in the effort, the degree is definitely worth it. I'm only writing about Engineering here, I doubt it's the same for many other majors. About alternatives to Georgia Tech - I'm at the University of Minnesota, which was #11 engineering in the US when I started, and i'm pretty sure it's in the top 20 almost every year. There's a 90% job placement rate for a bachelors of engineering, with an average of 63k/year salary starting. Tuition is a lot smaller than most big schools, especially for being high ranked. It's about 15k for books/tuition. After 5 years, I have about 4k of debt total, without any help from my parents. Definitely an option to look at.

    Finally beat 2048
  10. Love the updates, you have the right idea with questing!
  11. Have you looked at windows azure? You can rent a server with whatever OS, or just pay to run a single application.
  12. I start working July 7. Don't have new years resolutions really, but if I had to say something, I'd pick get annoyed at people less easily. Also, just did my second bouldering day and bought a semester pass. So, I'd hope to get some arm strength and do a V4 maybe :) I'm doing good on mine, kept on bouldering and now I'm doing some V3s there, with some 5.8/9 rock climbing. I've never really worked out or went to the gym, so sticking to this for three months has been great. I've built up a lot more muscle, and it's a lot of fun. Doesn't even feel like working out. Also sa121 - I'll definitely pm you when I get there.

    No it's ok, he baked it. Definitely not fried.

    My girlfriend and I bought a pizza, planning on dinner some other night when it's not crowded. And, we're out of groceries.
  19. For DIY - if you use shops, just buy green hide armor and rune. Most diyers will use shops. For quests, do stuff like Fairy Tale that will give you transportation options.
  20. Me too, I miss Rush on Valparaiso

    The superbowl is awesome, the rock climbing wall was empty because everyone was watching it!

    Nice, I was never able to get one with them. Good luck! I read Programming Interviews Exposed before mine, and it helped a ton. 2 of my questions were even from the book
  23. I have one 27" monitor, I prefer that to dual. I got it for something like $260 on sale at Microcenter.
