nikkiolie · « **Reply #5 on:** September 29, 2008, 11:56:04 am »

How was it? I have had Japanese already and soccer (we didn't play) and at 2 I have psych..

oh that reminds me come talk to me if you want to go to the gym sometime. I try to go right after my last class

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #6 on:** September 29, 2008, 12:14:01 pm »

My next class is at 2pm (intro into drawing). Ends at 4:50pm...

laurifer · « **Reply #7 on:** September 29, 2008, 12:39:16 pm »

Went to Japanese. It was okay.

Went to mentored inquiry. Professor didn't show up so we all left after waiting for a half hour.

Next class is at 2 and is only like an hour and 15 minutes. Woo!

I feel sorry for you; Dearborn is the building just waiting to die. :/

I have one more class today, and only one recitation tomorrow. YES.

Bad news is I have to walk from Withycombe to Owen in 10 minutes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

I needs me a bike.

jaybug · « **Reply #9 on:** September 29, 2008, 05:53:13 pm »

Do they steal bicycles at OSU like they do down here? Forget about a bike unless you can afford to replace it often. Especially if you park it at your dorm.

Doesn't OSU have an attendance policy, that if you miss two classes your grade is knocked down one letter?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #10 on:** September 29, 2008, 06:02:03 pm »

A lot of bikes do get stolen if the owner is stupid >_>

I have to request two classes for you. The first is Astronomy. Not part of my major or anything, but by far the best class I've taken.

The other is bowling! ^^

And definitely Advanced Physics! Even if you took normal Physics in high school.

I wonder if you have the same class as my friend Diana. She has a drawing class in that exact time frame. If so, that would be pretty neat. She's mah soul brother

Haha.

DancingTofu · « **Reply #13 on:** September 29, 2008, 09:58:55 pm »

Math 112? You need to pick up the pace bro. I took that 2 years ago.

makichan · « **Reply #14 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:16:18 am »

What a coincidence. I'm off to my first Bio class right now too! xD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #16 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:31:26 am »

Had cognitive psych this morning and Japanese latter today but that is it for me ^_^

megchan · « **Reply #17 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:33:30 am »

I dislike all my classes a little bit XD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #18 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:42:08 am »

I am happy that I don't have to read too much for cognitive psychology because I have to read like two chapters a week for social psych and also need to find time for Stats (it's an independent class)

makichan · « **Reply #19 on:** September 30, 2008, 11:33:13 am »

Eh... so much textbook reading. How boriiiiiing =__=;;
No novels, just textbooks.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #20 on:** September 30, 2008, 11:54:49 am »

yeah I have to have chapter 1 read by tomorrow (because we are having a quiz on it x.x)

Daxe · « **Reply #21 on:** September 30, 2008, 03:35:41 pm »

They only gave you two days to read the entire thing?

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #22 on:** September 30, 2008, 04:34:34 pm »

Textbooks and supplies cost so much...!!! I spent over $100 today, for new ones...

NightLotus · « **Reply #23 on:** September 30, 2008, 05:30:58 pm »

my parents spent 1600$ on books for me and my 3 siblings last year.... i couldn't agree more!

Diana is a common name, though.

Maybe it's the same one xD

maiden name Spenser, then Windsor.

Syd-chan · « **Reply #27 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:33:46 pm »

Gah! $100 in one day?! DX Jeeze. I've been thinking about colleges lately. I have no idea what to study, but it seems that OSU would be close by. I heard that WSU was in the top twenty five colleges, but then I'd become a SakuraCon addict. But, I think I heard something about in-state something or other. I should start doing my research.

oslapedo · « **Reply #28 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:35:48 pm »

UW is also in Seattle and it's supah fly. I think I'll try to attend there when the time is right : D

Syd-chan · « **Reply #29 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:43:42 pm »

Hm. Interesting. >> I just need to figure out what I want to do now. XD

oslapedo · « **Reply #30 on:** September 30, 2008, 09:52:49 pm »

You have a while to decide, if you rush you might get a headache or a brainfreeze!

Syd-chan · « **Reply #31 on:** September 30, 2008, 10:01:36 pm »

o.o Brainfreeze? XD Never had one. Meh, I'd just like a small idea. I'll have to think about this for a while.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #32 on:** September 30, 2008, 10:27:51 pm »

Do you go there too Koga?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #36 on:** September 30, 2008, 11:39:16 pm »

oh yeah...IN STATE COLLAGES COST A LOT LESS!

This is something that I can no stress enough....they are A LOT A LOT less. (don't know the number but I believe about half the price)

not yet still working on my transfer from BCC ( Bellevue Community College)

oslapedo · « **Reply #38 on:** September 30, 2008, 11:59:43 pm »

Awesome! What will you major in?

My mom lives in WA and she has shares joint custody of me with my dad. Would that do anything for in-state-ness?

KogaRyu · « **Reply #39 on:** October 01, 2008, 12:30:19 am »

I still have plenty of time so im still undecided. As for current situation im not really sure.. i think it might depend on whom your living with more but then again i have no idea... sorry

oslapedo · « **Reply #40 on:** October 01, 2008, 12:33:02 am »

Tis okay! I'm determined to go out of state no matter the cost, so I don't care!

What fields are you interested in? I enjoy aquatic sciences, especially marine biology.

Yup! To get in-state tuition you have to have parents that pay taxes in that state, and you do!

My dad lives in California; so I get the same deal! *highfive*

OMG. IF YOU CAN USE HER ADDRESS, YOU CAN TOTALLY GET INSTATE TUITION!!!

(which is why I could get instate tuition in Michigan. Oh Grandma)

I wouldn't recommend this as generally employers see a BS as a BS work experience and side things are what makes one stand out from other candidates.

At work there are people who do the same job but some have Physics, Electrical engineer, chemistry, chemical engineer, manufacturing engineer PHDs
I don't see the double up if just having one will get someone qualified for job. Instead of doubling up on majors, use some of your senior electives as classes that'll also count as a masters.

Math 112? You need to pick up the pace bro. I took that 2 years ago.

It's because I took it three years ago in High School (as Pre-Calc) so I thought that I would brush up on it.

I actually tutored some people on math 111 and 112 at PCC and If you can do algebra well then you can handle calculus. Those classes I thought were harder than Calc 1 because it is all weird hard to wrap your mind around uses to stuff taught in lower level math classes.

Starting calc is basics. It is something new but only simple applications. Second and third year of calc and other higher math is a different story though.

I'm working toward a BA. I was considering double major in graphic design and photography, and minor in Japanese. But it's just a thought at the moment...

Well I could be wrong about the usefulness. Might want to talk to some potential employers or people that you know that have jobs you'd like to get when you graduate.

Talking to the School about such things won't get a very objective answer, as someone who gets paid by school has a conflict of interest.
