"P.S. If you study Philosophy, English, or History as your major, you just might end up working for a MUD some day! (It's either that or McDonald's...)"

These are the subjects I will be applying for.
-gasp-

I failed quoting.

EDIT: McDonald's, most likely. Or the Finnish equivalent, Hesburger.

So? Living at home a little after you graduate college is financially wise, and they aren't annoying enough for me to leave before I have my car paid off and have a decent amount of savings.

I wish my school had a rifle club I had to settle for sabre fencing and archery. I'm going to a shooting range and to a wine tasting club for my 21st birthday next week though.

By the way, if there's anyone in the Bay Area with fencing gear and wants a sparring partner, I'm feeling rusty and need to spar.

Lastly, I REFUSE to believe that the world would trust someone like Casilu with nuclear physics knowledge....

I passed the FBI background check fine. Also, what is dangerous that I could do with an advanced knowledge of nuclear physics?

Haven't quite decided what to major in. Hmm.

If you are at Stanford, do everything you can to catch a talk with Dr. Ronald Davis. The research he is doing on genetic markers in human trauma patients is very interesting. He'll blow your mind.

Ayup.

Maybe I'll send someone to pester you for kicks.

I'm starting to get depressed, clearing everything out of my bedroom in preparation to move out.

My stepdad won't come with me to freshman orientation.

Wut?

I didn't ALLOW my parents to come with me. The LAST thing I need is my folks embarrassing me in front of new people.

Where: Open University
What Degree Program: Bachelor of Science in Physical Science, with the possibility of a BA/BSc in Mathematics after that.
Start Date: I'm studying now! Most OU part-time courses run January-October.
Classes this Semester: Using Mathematics (completed in June, level 1 - 30 points), Exploring Mathematics (level 2 - 30 points), Mathematical Methods and Models (level 2 - 60 points), Mathematical modelling residential course (level 2 - 10 points)
One Way Commute Time: None! It's mostly home study, but the optional tutorials are about 40 mins away, the residential school week was held at Nottingham University, about 3 hours away.
Earliest Class Starts: (for the residential course - 9 AM)
Latest Class Ends: 9pm for the main course tutorials. This is part time, so the tutorials run in the evenings after work.
Year: This is my second full year of study although I started with a few short courses in September 2006. I will have completed 130 points worth of courses this year, 10 more than a full time degree! After that I just have the 120 points of level 3 courses to do + 2 more residential schools (equivalent to third year of a degree program) However, I am only intending to do 60 points + 1 residential school in each of the next two years. I want to be sure I have enough time to get good marks!
Classes next Semester: The quantum world. Space, time and cosmology. Quantum mechanics: experiments, applications and simulations.

Where: University of Kentucky

Tervic, I'm going to be a Nuke as well.

I think that's slightly above Casilu on the panic meter.

I honestly doubt that.

I guess listing high school courses wouldn't cut it.

I want to finish the year already.
