'When I first started college, I took the full load and while I did pretty good, that all changed as I got deeper into my major, which at the time was electrical engineering. Since I was on...
I've been called a snob before. I kept to myself a lot (still do, but I'm more open now), but people perceived it as being shy at best and standoffish/uppity at worst. While the snob accusations...
I have a Facebook and the reason I initially created it a couple of years ago was so companies would know I existed. How did it get to be that companies want to see your Internet presence before...
Since I've made this post, I've been doodling and/or studying anatomy most days. That and checking out tips and tutorials peppered throughout the Internet. I used to lurk around on Conceptart a...
For me, it's because it's fun to just let go and journey into that inner world, ya know? Sometimes I get so engrossed in what I'm doing (be it writing or drawing), time goes by in a flash. One of...
Welcome! This is a pretty laid back forum, and I think you'll like it here.
Before I read anything, I take a look at the Table of Contents and how the chapter is organized (sometimes repeated on the first page of a chapter). I then read the first sentence of each...
I've done that too. Sometimes I look back and my stuff now is better than something I did a month ago. I'll show other people just to make sure that I'm not tooting my horn or anything, and they seem...
A group of ferrets is called a business. Also, the male angler fish gets absorbed into the female angler fish during mating season. When all's said and done, she has her own sperm bank. ...
Read or just look out the window. I listen to music if a flight's longer than forty minutes.
Nope, but when I was a kid, I used to take hint books to the bathroom if I had to do business while playing computer games.
Voting actually matters because the world is largely run by sociopaths. According to their Bizarro World logic, silence (i.e. people not voting) is consent. The universe is far stranger than we...
English (1st language). Latin(?)- It's a dead language, but I took it in high school. I'm currently in the process of learning Spanish. I can pick up the gist of a Spanish conversation...
I think I should just doodle something everyday. Doesn't have to pretty, just something that loosens me up and reminds me that Hey, this is supposed to be relaxing and fun! Sometimes I think I...
I love to draw. I've been doing it since I was a wee thing. I didn't get serious with art until about a few years ago. I bought books on art basics (color, composition, anatomy, etc) and started...
Just stay positive and be yourself and you'll find someone! Of course, like others have said, be prepared for the possibility of rejection. Lots of it.
I don't think I've ever had a close friend outside of work or school. Pretty much every friendship died because we were too different or life got in the way. The friends I do have at work (more...
I couldn't afford to not try. If my brother or I didn't give a crap, then our parents made (yes, made) us give a crap. Loved learning, but hated school. As long as you love learning, you're good...
I don't really think it matters. If the kid has a natural drive to be the best student in the class (or being pushed by parents), then he or she will be valedictorian. For the record, there was...
Welcome! *Hands Mystery Man a plate of cookies* Do you like cookies?
BS in Computer Engineering. Been debating on whether or not I should take the FE exam. I'm leaning on Yes, but it's so darn much to study!
Thanks! I like weird though. Makes life more interesting. Cute dog!
I've been lurking on this site for the past two weeks or so, and I finally gained the courage to join. It'll be nice to post on a forum again!'
