Next fall I'm going to start premed classes, and hopefully in a couple of years I'll be studying for my MD at UW.  I'm excited, but the idea of being a full-time student again is daunting. I've decided not to try to work during this process, which will be a first for me, and the idea of living off of loans makes me sick to my stomach. But I think it's the best decision in the long run, and my loved ones are backing me up on this.Oh my God. That is really incredible. I wish you the best on your endeavour. And here I am bitching about trying to get my B.A. M MyeternalgrattitudetoPhil&Val.Herman said "We want sweaty truckers at the truck stop!

Hey, getting a BA was so freakin' hard that I'm only now going back for more after graduating in '03. It's a big deal, especially if you are a grownup whose parents aren't funding your entire life. So. . .keep bitching.  Seattle Org Invasion July 28th-30th  http://www.prince.org/msg/2/177514

Yay art history! 
What was your concentration? The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

Seriously,some of those guys are college grads, at least in our area. Times are tough and they make good money. "Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"-Dr Seuss

Currently working on Liberal Arts Associates Degree in Music Performance and paying for it as I go. Going to need more loans when I take the Liberal Arts degree to Wayne State University. Where can I go to school for free? I've always heard an urban legend that after you've lived in California for a year, school is free. Anyone else ever heard of this? BFA Communications Design (graphic design, mostly) at Pratt. The only way I know of to go to college for free is to work a job at an art school. If you work at New School in NYC for example, you can get your degree on the side for free. [Edited 2/17/06 12:33pm] | |
