Overwhelming....
I just wanted to say if you see less of Rhynn around...
REJOICE!
No, that'd make me sad...but if that's how you see it.
Anyway, as it stands I'm still not sure how much time I'll have to myself....
It may come to the point where I can only be on scheduled quests that fit my time frame and not much else...
That being said, if you want to Rp with Rhynn or if there's something that needs to be done feel free to drop me a PM or contact me via messenger (LynnJuniper@msn.com)
Here's to hoping my brain doesn't get eaten
-
enjoy :-)
-
Ahh.....the joy of College......err.....I think.
You'll love it.
-
Good luck and have fun :)
-
Good luck and do well in school
-
Oh... still two more years to go till college...
-
I can only say this. Have the time of your life. (I dont mean goof off and stuff like that and get bad grades) But enjoy it take time for yourself to take it all in.
-
Heh I accidentally took it all in all at once. Just now. Right now.
I think I nearly gave myself a heart attack *stares at the syllabi things thinking "Theres no way I can do this"*
-
I wish we had college and campus and frathouses and all that stuff you seen in teenmovies in denmark. Give more easy ways to pick up girls in denmark.. *winkity wink *
-
Yes!!!! Less Rhynn!!! *dances the no more rhynn dance*
*winks* you know im kidding, i need you here so i can sell you again, ive hurd the resale value on slaves is quight good *grins*
-
*weeps a bit* boo hoo :). I know the feeling, Im starting classes myself though im over any shock as im in my 3rd year now. Just do the following: take a deep breath, feed your sylybis to your dog, reprint it, read it over, (attention! dont feed it to your dog unless you can reprint it), go to all your classes (believe me it helps), listen, take notes, check out a couple of chicks in class (well guys in your case),*snap snap* not for too long have to pay attention to the professor, make friends, read, read, read, read, party on the weekends and finaly party with Jareg sometime :).
Good luck hun, and take ahold of the education like you own it.
-
*giggles* Upon further reading of this english syllibus from HELL Its pretty apparent that I'll hardly be here -_-;
Four research projects in 4 months for one class...Its hillarious considering in highschool it took that long to do one...
I'm offically overwhelmed and wigging out
Rhynn signing off!
-
Just be glad you're not me, complainer. Never place into honors classes. Your advisor will try and weasel you into filling the class to boost your credits so they can charge you more. I have too many credits. Way too many. You're freakin' out? I'm freakin' out!
-
Don't worry, once you earn your first degree you'll realize that school is kind of like the borg. . .
You will be assimilated . . . you'll never stop going :)
I know, been an engineer for 10 years now and I still find myself going back to pickup yet another bachelors/masters program :)

Resistance is futile...

I think the way it is now is rather good... But that is just my oppinion. And also Storold wont be around for that much out of GMT evenings now for the same reason(almost, my semester at AU just started).
Good luck Rhynn, pay attention in classes and work a little and I am sure you will do great.
-
Good luck with it. As was said above, you should make sure that you enjoy yourself a little while you are there.
Then, ten years after doing your degree and honours you can go back and do something fun!
That's what I did. Well, not that working full time and doing an MBA is exactly fun. Oh, doing a little contracting out of hours and playing here also cuts into your social life. Bah, who needs friends anyway.....
-
Good luck :)
-
*gives Jess a big hug* Man will you need it. Remember to sleep when possible and on the weekends, go to some wild parties! But don't get too drunk cause after the party, you'll be needing to get back to work. Good luck! Do whatever it takes to get that A! :)

bah. college ain't so bad. once you find your rhythm, you'll have plenty of time. the trick is getting there, finding your flow, and then applying it to each class encounter. the projects that at the moment seem so daunting will soon become afterthoughts, normalities that hardly impede your normal mode of function.

Pure Milty poetry... *wipes away a tear*

Just think... after college life... comes REAL life

That is the wisest thing I've ever seen. Kudos, dude.

In my expert opinion, 4 research projects of any substance in 4 months is exorbitant. You should seriously consider asking around for another instructor who will better fit your style of learning.

Sometimes wished I did the college thing. Live in dorms and party lots, well atleast thats all I would have done in the first year. Though I made the right choice, I lacked the focus and motivation to really accomplish anything in College and that would have ended up in me wasting alot of money to eventually drop out.

Yeah but this is a core class for the college so... No matter the instructor the syllabus will be the same... I really do appreciate all the help, and Welcome Back Rhiz! But Upon further inspection I realise It's just a bunch of seperation anxiety and being thrown into a GIANGANTIC place from a place where there was a graudating class of 60 kids that I've known for four years...I'm afraid Ill loose all my old contacts and never make any new ones...It's just a bunch of overwhelming daunting things that...*sighs*... and to top it off I can't sleep! *laughs*

I met all the friends I really keep close to me in college. All of the ones from highschool, except two, I never see except on a random occassion. I see the rest of my friends, when really I consider everything else in my life, as my family. You'll be fine.
-
Right on, Eight-bit. It's exactly the same way for me. The dearest friends I have I met in college.
So chin up, Lynn, the best is yet to come!

Agreed, although I have some good friends from high school, I have met some of the most important people to me at Uni. Your true friends will stick to you no matter what. Besides ten years after high school when you meet, if they are good friends, it will be as if you only saw them yesterday.
You do a lot of maturing at Uni, it is the first time that you have to really motivate yourself to work. I didn't get a hang of that until 3rd year....
You will be fine. You will figure out that you really can do an assignment by staying up all night (and still be attentive in class the next day, coffee really helps, or learn to sleep with your eyes open) and that going out every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night until 2-4 am is normal.
Not that I did anything like that...
-
Eh. I was in Science One at UBC for my first year. I lost count of the number of research projects we had to do, and then we had to put together an original research paper for the end (and 20% of our mark). Once you get used to it, you'll realize that four research projects are nothing. Of course, that's the same time that your profs will realize you're used to it, and double your work. *grins in a DM-esque way*

If you wear a trenchcoat to cover your nightie in your early class, start sleeping in your clothes when the weather turns warm.
