Re: Post one "Did ya know" fact about yourself.
Did you know I'm extremely terrified of balloon popping, walking on ice and bugs?
Balloon popping is self-explanatory. And it hurts my ears, owowowow Walking on ice came from an accident and bugs... got bitten WAY too many times and bigger ones just scare me

Did you know that I am a Star Wars fan to the point of... obsession.. I have all 4 Star Wars Slurpee cups from '05, 4 Star wars Lego sets (and one mini) on my shelf of Star wars, at least 10 comic books, I've seen all 6 movies at least 20 times each, and I own 80, possibly 90 novels from the extended universe (out of 140-150). |

Re: Post one "Did ya know" fact about yourself.
Did you know that my dad is obsessed with the band Kiss to the point where he dresses up like them for Halloween and concerts even if the concert is hundreds of miles away?
He also sings karaoke pretty much every night and it's really embarrassing since he sucks. Help me.

Re: Post one "Did ya know" fact about yourself.
LOL, did you know that I'm scared of elevators?
I haven't used one since 2007, and that's when I almost caused the death of someone from misusing an elevator. Not gonna go into details.

Re: Post one "Did ya know" fact about yourself.
I tried to choose jobs that allowed for a lot of overlap and computer access while still making ends meet. For instance, I could staff the computer lab as a tech assistant while working on a research project for another job on my laptop, and do my schoolwork on the lab computer, and then continue working when I went to the library later to work as an admin. asst, and then try to fill up the rest of the monetary gaps by teaching the SAT/LSAT (which paid well but required some travel and had the drawback of not allowing me to get homework done or study). I'd work my ass off during the summers to earn a bunch of extra money that I could throw back at the school, too.
There were times when I'd have like seven classes due to being a dual-degree student (where most CAS students take four and engineering/business students take 5) and about 30-40 hours of work a week on top of it in order to finance my tuition/feed myself/buy shit/etc. Due to my time constraints I couldn't always make it to all my classes because of work, so I tried to only attend if classes required participation or didn't put their lecture notes online. What I'd usually do is read the lecture notes and if there ANYTHING I didn't understand 100%, I went straight to office hours or bugged the living shit out of the TA's. Office hours are hugely underused in college and are a great way to really understand a topic one-on-one with the professor. So basically it all came down to extremely strict time management. The funny thing was that I still had time to do a bunch of other shit with my life -- it was just an extremely stressful one that took a toll on my mental and physical health. Bastards who have their shit paid for have no idea how easy they have it lmfao. |

I would expect private colleges to provide some financial aid (or even a full ride if you're an amazing student) :O I'm sure your summer jobs were related to your concentrations though! So it should've been like killing two birds (in your case, 3) with one stone. Tough stuff.. I'm glad I got a CalGrant & other scholarships x_x.. |

Re: Post one "Did ya know" fact about yourself.
That's why my situation was so "unusual" -- I had a shitload of scholarships but not enough to cover the entire cost of tuition, but my financial aid was slaughtered because my father died and my mother inherited a shitload of assets and insurance payouts. The problem: She didn't want to pay for anything even though schools judge "need-based aid" off parental financials. And being a financially-independent student isn't enough to declare yourself as emancipated.
And yeah during my junior year I landed a gig as a trading-firm quant, so that was a lot of fun. |

Re: Post one "Did ya know" fact about yourself.
Did ya know that whenever I'm pooping I HAVE to read shit that's around me.
Shampoo bottles, toothpaste ingredients. Weird and random shit I pick up and read. I don't like to read the same thing twice, but sometimes I can't help it (no new material). |

Wall Street isn't all it's cracked up to be -- there are better ways to spend your youth IMO. I plan on changing jobs eventually LOL.
