I just handed in my thesis. That's positive.

But I had to stay up ALL NIGHT to work on it. I've been busy for 14 hours straight. :eek3:

So now I'll crawl into bed.

I'm doing good in school, and the scale today said 199 pounds! This is the first time since high school that my weight has been under 200 pounds! I have 10 more pounds to (189) before my BMI is in a "healthy" range. I'd like to hit 189 and I'll slow down my dieting a little, I still want to get my weight down to around 180 so I'm a bit below the bare minimum for a healthy BMI. So, basically, I still have a lot of dieting left to do. :D


Also, I've seen two advisers and have a good shot at grad school. I need to do good on the GRE (goal = 1200). I also need to get some letters or recommendation and do some research. I'm really hoping I can get into a PHD program.

Re: Something Positive
 

I've heard that for an MBA you want to go out and work and get some real world experience for a few years before pursing the MBA.

I'm going to graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Applied Psychology and a Minor in Gender and Women Studies. The GWS Minor is to help me with Graduate school so I can apply into a Clinical Psychology program that emphasizes sexual studies (as my goal is to do Relationship/Sexual Therapy).

I honestly have minimal interest in Business and would prefer to work close with helping people and furthering my knowledge in the field of Psychology. And the PHD program for Clinical Psychology is quite intense, it's 4 years of heavy coursework plus 2-3 years of time for a Dissertation, plus time for an internship and time for the required APA certification.

That is of course if I can get into a PHD program. My GPA is not great due to my time in Engineering. I need to see how the GRE goes, what research I can get over the next year and a half, what letters of recommendation I can secure, and all that fun stuff. I'm really hoping I can knock out a 1200 on my GRE.

I found a wad of cash hidden away in a book I completely forgot about from a past job...and went right to paying bills. *sigh*

Re: Something Positive
 

A+ on both of my mid terms, admission into the Law Fellows program. Enrolled in all the classes I wanted for the upcoming quarter too. Good times.

Re: Something Positive
 

I don't have to wake up early anymore!

Re: Something Positive
 

Didn't have bed bugs afterall...

Babsy bought me a game.

Finally finished my 32 page book in InDesign. Worst project ever.....................................................

Re: Something Positive
 

How easy to learn is InDesign? Any idea how it compares to QuarkXPress? I'm able to take some free graphic design courses and was wondering which ones I should go with.

Re: Something Positive
 

I'm going to apply for job working on the US Census 2010. I don't know why, but I'm kind of looking forward to knocking on people's doors and pissing them off with questions.

Re: Something Positive
 

My friend just dropped off a shirt he got me for Christmas.

It's a light blue shirt with Mario on the front that says "Party like it's 1985".


Awesome.

Re: Something Positive
 

?

I wanted this one, but already have a Mario 85 shirt.

Re: Something Positive
 

That's the one.

Re: Something Positive
 

We're partially done recording 3 songs of the new Spinto Band record. Yea.

Re: Something Positive
 

Shall be doing a 10th Muse crossover miniseries with other indie superheroes.



Nervous as hell. Following so many great artists. If I had a gag reflex I'd vomit with excitement.

Re: Something Positive
 

I just finished my last undergraduate college class. Now I just had a presentation tomorrow, two finals, and a paper left. I can't wait to be done!

Re: Something Positive
 

I'm in a state of bliss right now, just thinking of how far a lot of the members of this forum have gone so far, academic and real-life wise. Congrats on everythings, great job everyone. :D

Re: Something Positive
 

Thanks. :D

I'm currently waiting to hear about a temporary job.

Re: Something Positive
 

2 more exams today and my cruel run of 9 finals will be over!

LET THE BREAK BEGIN!

Re: Something Positive
 

FREEEEEEEEEEEDOM!!!!


Finally done the semester!

Re: Something Positive
 

I finished my last final today, so now I'm done with college! Well, I'm done just as long as I passed everything.

Re: Something Positive
 

Nice.

I have one more final on Tuesday at 7:25pm. Have to do well on it for another 4.0.

Re: Something Positive
 

I love snow so much. The only 3 disadvantages of it are the dangerous road conditions, not being able to lead a normal life, and the melting of snow-covered ice.

Re: Something Positive
 

Grades are in.

2 A's and 1 A-

Re: Something Positive
 

I got a bigass new scanner. No more scanning each comic page multiple times and aligning the pieces up on photoshop. It's a thing of beauty.

Re: Something Positive
 

Ffffrrrrreeeedddddoooooooooooommmmmm!!!!

Although I might have to settle for a 3.9 instead of the 4.0 I wanted.

Re: Something Positive
 

I saved Christmas at work.
We got some dumb large order that had to be shipped by Christmas, on top of the orders we had - so I didn't take a break today to finish it, and as a result none of us have to go in until after January, opposed to working until Christmas Eve.

Re: Something Positive
 

Got two A+'s and an A the last quarter.

Spent the weekend in a snow covered mountain cabin with 15 of my closest friends.

Will be in Vegas with my family and a couple buddies from the 24th to the 27th.

Then have plans to go up to South Lake Tahoe for New Years and some snowboarding.

Signed up to feed the homeless and donate some food/cash in a couple weeks.

Had my first photoshoot for a friends new fashion blog the other day and was able to pull out some solid pics with my new f1.8 50mm lens.

Here are some pics from the last week:

Re: Something Positive
 

Got myself a Macbook.

Re: Something Positive
 

My aunt who I never see anymore came over and gave me pot?

Re: Something Positive
 

I'm drinking some eggnog I made on Black Friday, so it's aged 37 days. It's tasting really good.

Learned how to get a free 3-month trial of Amazon Prime like so:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/067...g=dealswoot-20

* Click the link above to Pride and Prejudice
* Click the Add to Cart with FREE Two-Day shipping button on the right side of the page
* Click Proceed to checkout button
* Log in with your account
* Review the trial offer details, then click Start my free trial

You will then end up at the Place your order page at which point you may leave the page without placing an order and keep your free trial without making a purchase. Visit your account details, then click on Manage Your Prime Membership. From there, choose to not Auto-Upgrade after your 3-month trial expires, or else you'll get charged $79.00 at its conclusion.

Enjoy!

Re: Something Positive
 

I did that too a couple weeks ago. My first purchase came nice and quick. My next two day shipping order took well over a week. I guess because of Xmas and all...but if I was paying $79 a year for this that would really suck.

Re: Something Positive
 

Just got a summer internship at a Fortune 500 financial services company at $16/hr. :)

Re: Something Positive
 

That's pretty good pay for an internship. I'll be sure to post in here when I get a job.
