No, I had class from 9 to 5 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, 12-8 on Wednesday, plus a few hours on Friday. Take into account the time to travel to and from school, as well as get ready, and that is basically 8-5.

This was on an 18 unit course load, with 6 3-unit engineering classes.

As far as homework, I think you are a bit misguided here. Many assignments for my classes take at least 5 hours, while some projects take about 20 hours a week of work (per project). When you have big, group project, it can be very time consuming.

Luckily, projects are staggered as far as due dates, so I'll spend 20 hours a week doing one project one week, then another 20 doing the other the next week.

This is all ontop of class time, as well. Not to mention the midterms and quizzes that seem to be almost every week.

You're so full of shit for multiple reasons. 1. I find it incredibly unlikely that you would have 6 engineering courses in one semester. What about all the crap that you have to take - technical writing, courses from the humanities, etc.? 2. You're more or less making my point. Many of us have been to college. We know better than the "class from 9 to 5" and "12 to 8" and more hours on Friday. What you really mean is "I have class from 9 to 10, and 10 to 11, then I'm off until 1, so I don't do shit for those two hours, except
socialize.
Then, I'm out from 2 to 4, when I socialize again, and finally have class from 4 to 5." The vast majority of college students have shitloads of free time between 8 and 5 on Monday through Friday when they're NOT actually in classes. Further, at every university I've attended, if you really did have 6 engineering classes, they're not going to be a mile from one another, as they'd have to be if someone were spending an hour a day walking (as someone else claims.)

Well hopefully you didn't give up the manasshole hooters as well. We were supposed to get a beer sometime, capisce?

FIRST DAY, WISH ME LUCK!

Also, I got tired of that place. Too many irritable women, not cute enough for the bullshit. Probably cuz their regional manager is always harassing them. If you ever wanna get the girls talking, ask about Gretchen.

And I dont drink anyways.

good luck. I'm always a huge supporter of education
:thumbsup:

Good luck man, just finished finals (part time night school for fun) and they were tough.

Last time I was at that Hooters, there were girls missing teeth... no lie. But glad to see you're onto bigger and better things like an education.

I'm going to have to agree with this.

I took 22 credits last semester (18 credits of legit engineering classes) and it wasn't exactly "I WILL NEVER EVER POST ON ATOT EVER AGAIN" Even with working part time jobs and studying, I found plenty of time to play video games, and post on ATOT, and hang out with friends.
 
@DrPizza Why are you so fucking angry?

Not angry a bit. Just one of my pet peeves is college students claiming that their school work keeps them so busy. They're rarely as busy as they say, and quite often, a lot of how busy they are comes from poor organization.

Well I was definitely pretty damn busy in my senior year. Labs nearly 3 or 4 hours a day on top of 5x 1hour classes in different parts of campus.

The general education claases are pretty laid back but it when you get higher in your course level, your time commitment goes way up too.

I agree completely. College students portray this "lifestyle" where they have to eat crazy concoctions of really cheap foods and that they have no money and no time to do anything other than school. It's a bunch of bullshit for all but the most dedicated.

See my previous post in this thread for what's possible if you aren't talking out your ass and can organize your life.
 
Is shorty banned? The reason I ask is b/c his avatar isn't showing up and that is a sure sign. If so, his thread title takes on a whole new meaning. 😛

j/k shorty 😛

It's especially funny when they don't even hold a job outside of schoolwork
 
BUMP!

I have bad news for you guys.

Could only get one course that I need for the 2nd summer term. GI Bill doesnt pay me unless I stick to my major. So starting tomorrow I will have lots more free time, unless the history teacher overloads us with homework which I seriously doubt. That means I will be out of the house for only 6 hours a week, and probably doing homework for 3 hours a week.
So plan on seeing more of me.

Today was slow cuz I went to the range and stuff.
