This is write of passage. Every high school does that. I think that's how I stayed so skinny in highschool.speidel28 said:
I coudn't really vote since im in Middle School, 8th grade acually so I'll be leaving when the school year ends (in 172 days) to go off to high school.
I want to go to Plymouth State University (USA) when i go to collage, which with my grades now seems VERY likely. When I get there I want to get into the feild of criminal justice, like a patrol cop or something of the sort. I just really DON'T want to live my life in a little cubicle, no matter how good the pay is, I just can't live like that. I want to be out in the feild doing something new every day.
My dream job however would be Rally Racing, i've always loved the sport and have always wanted to be part of it. However I'm only 14 so I can't say if I'm a good driver or not. However from my experience with [real] Go- Carts, Gran Turismo, and Dirt I am amasing, atleast compared to my peers. My mom went go carting before and even though she had a faster cart i beat her because of the way i drive. Although this is irrelavent because Go-Carts are far from the real thing but atleast its a start.
But anyway, I'm in 8th grade and my grades are pretty damn good in everything except LA, NO I DON'T SEE HOW A RIVER AND A OCEANS MIXING EQUALS LIFE. that was what I said to my LA teacher when she threw a really stupid "figure it out" question at me, fucking poetry.

I have a Bachelors in Science of Game Art and Design from the Portland Art Institute. So far no luck breaking in to the industry mostly due to personal life issues getting in the way of me getting serious about my career. But in time I will break in. I do 3D Modeling and am a Texture Artist. Maya, ZBrush, and Photoshop are my main weapons of creation.
I'm a junior in highschool this year, but I will probably be taking a college course during the winter.
The poll options don't really fit since I am in the UK, but I voted working towards a Masters Degree. I am still an undergraduate, but since the poll is to find out level of education, degree type takes precedence. I am currently on the 2nd year of an MEng course, but since seeing this semesters timetable I cannot say I am looking forward to the start of the University year.
Completed high school and I tried to get 2 Bachelors, Bio-Informatics and Journalism. I failed both, and now I'm working for a while. I do want some form of a degree because high school gets you nowhere, probably an Associates degree because I don't think I can't be bothered with 4 years of school anymore, I prefer working. But I have yet to see when, I don't think I want to spend a couple more years in this country. Decisions decisions...
I'm in my 5th semester of undergraduate study at Penn State. I'm currently studying Computer Science.
What's funny is that, aside from Calculus and assembly code, I don't think that there's anything I've learned so far that I didn't already know, or could've learned pretty easily from the internet. Though the football and the parties down here are well worth the price of admission anyway
Gotta love Penn State.

Im (hopefully if i passd repeats) going into third year of my Bsc in Business and Management. Sounds like a nice system there i have to submit a thesis to attain my Bsc, and i have a 6 month work placement in between 3rd ad 4th year. Still I agree that a formal education certificate is not the fairest way to judge a persons education but trends do show where the money jobs go. And unfortuately more often than naught the self taught lose out. So its best we stick with the system. hate to have teh US setup though, college is free for all up until Bsc level in my coutry, that may have to change though witht the budget shortfalls
Last year of college, getting my BA in History.
And I'm making preliminary plans to go teach in France. So I'm working on my French.
