oh man, you just brought back sweet college memories...

i LOVED going to school! finals lasted only a week or so and most of them were easy anyways (in computer science and math, you basically just solve problems and write programs ) so that didn't bother me at all. and you had food right on campus 24/7, 60% - 40% girls to guys ratio, something to do every night, and just a load of fun...

Heh, all my schools always had them in December but it's work for me now. Kind of a mixed blessing. I liked school, but I like making money too.

And just wait until you get to the endocrine system!
ha ha, is that where your avatar comes from, is that some kind of crazy biochemical factory your work in?

You guys are so lucky you're all done with school!

I really did nottt want to take a science class this year. Graduation requirements are 2 years of a science... and colleges require 2, and some are 2 years with 3 years reccommended.

my counselor MADE me take a 4th year. "itll look better for college apps." it wontlook better if i FAIL the class. i seriously suck at biological sciences. its abunch of memorizations. my brain cant store all of it!

But if you take notice, the Lehigh Valley is full of Biblical names...probably named by moravians...Nazareth, Bethlehem, Emmaus.

Bethlehem is awesome at Christmas time...I go there every year to see the lights and eat at Bethlehem Brew Works on Broad and Main street! The shops are pretty nice, too. Definitely a nice change from my shit town.
Isn´t there a place called "Myanus" somewhere in the U.S.? I remember ALI G talking to an police officer there and askin "Do you have sticks in Myanus?" Officer was like .

@Enroutte: It will just turn out fine, you`ll see. Just remember to concentrate...

I found this:


Mianus is a locality in the state of Connecticut. It featured notoriously on the TV program Jackass, due to the fact that it sounds like "my anus", though it is actually pronounced "my ANN-us". Geographically, Mianus is nestled in a valley between two mountains.

A river of the same name runs through Mianus and the town is also noted for its high quality education facilies with North Mianus High School having a considerable national reputation and Mianus attracts students from across America.

I saw this writing in a bathroom at De Anza: "no matter how smart you are, you will end up here". I thought it was funny.

My high school really didn't even have finals.

It seems like everything I ever learned, I've learned in college.

Anyway, yeah it's been shut down for 20 years now and actually Sands Las Vegas is looking into buying it and turning it into a casino!
WOW it's definately a small world.... I remember looking out of my apartment window and seeing that same thing since I also went to Lehigh as an undergrad (graduated in '95). Actually Bethlehem steel owned a 7mile tract of land there... Really mind blowing.

Didn't hear about the casino though..

Haha. I graduated Lehigh last year. If you remember the Morning Call, they usually have a lot of information regarding the new casinos.
