Social dance? So random, haha.

MTU realizes how many fat students are up there, so they require three PE credits for most majors. A few of my female friends(who are attractive, just FYI) are in the class and asked me to take it with them.

Ladies...

^Get it.

I'm assuming social dance (if talking about what they consider popular and what people do now) is simply guys standing with arms above heads and girls grinding up and down like they are a stripper pole, then I repeat, get some.

Madame_Furie got her degree (also first class) in Business IT and did a part time stint at McDonalds and nothing since. It's a great use of a degree :lol:

Get Education to survive in real world. Go to real world and get rejected and stuck in job that doesn't need skills obtained.

Or in my case, Get IT qualifications, go to get a job, get rejected by Job Seekers...

I went to Youngstown State University for a year and effectively dropped out. Why pay a lot of money to work at where I would now more than likely?

Although, I went to bartending school (in Pittsburgh) graduated (huzzah mixology) and have gotten turned down for all jobs in regards to bartending (Youngstown, Boardman, Austintown area. For those not in the know, Midway ish point between Kennywood and where Geauga Lake used to be). So til I move Im stuck doing Burger King and warehouse work handleing machines that cost far too much money (5k+).

Yay edumaction!

First class is in 20 minutes. Basically it's counseling for how not to totally **** over your college education and future.

That amounts to 16.5 credits. I'm still dead set on mechanical engineering.

Plumbing first year.

Hoping my experience of constructing custom coaster supports in RCT3 will help me with scaffolding.

Nearly the end of the autumn semester now, but got exams in January so I guess they still count. In my final year now, which all seems very scary! It's also amazingly stressful trying to juggle all of these modules and my final year project. Anyway, along with my project this semester, I'm doing:

-Reciproacting Engines
-Signal Processing and Instrumentation
-Structural Vibration: Analysis and Practice
-Tribology of Machine Elements

And as if anyone cares, my project title is:
"Design and development of a wave compensating crane for materials handling on/near water"
