    So I finally picked a college...

    PITTSBURGH

    Just for the sake of doing it I will talk about the other schools as well.

    MSU - Decent campus. Too bad everyone in my group and the guides were idiots. During lunch they had the worst conversations I have ever heard and promptly kept MSU at the bottom of my list.

    OSU - Liked the campus, sweet stadium, sweet rec center. Not a lot of geniuses again though. I got to meet Jim Tressel during the admitted students program where there were like 2000+ people I would say. He then made a speech that focused on football and tradition. OSU would have been great if I were playing football. Too bad I want to learn things.

    Miami - Great campus. The amount of hot females suprised the hell out of me. Oxford hides them well from the rest of the country. Academics seemed to be pretty solid and probably the best out of all the schools I got into. However, I am not for being in the middle of nowhere. Throw in the fact that the sports program is meh (I know I am contradicting myself compared to OSU, but I need SOME sports). I would be going there though if I wasn't going to Pitt.

    Pitt - Love the city, three professional franchises, good school, lots of history, good people, URBAN, living in the towers seems like it would be sweet. GOOD FOOD! Plus they gave me a free t-shirt, bling bling. Oh yeah, and they have this guy who sells exclusive pitt clothing on the campus on a street corner, and I was wearing my Chargers shirt so he gave me a Steelers 5 Time SB CHampions bumper sticker.

    On the way back on the plane my dad and I sat next to a guy and he was reading a playbook so we asked why he was reading a playbook, turns out that he used to be in the NFL (last team was GB) and was going into the CFL so he had to learn all new stuff. His name was K. Peterson I think, and he played WR. Went to New Hampshire University. Also played for the Jets and some other teams I think.

    Anyway, sorry this was horridly written, but oh well. You got the point.

    Plus if someone wants to upload my Pitt icon so I can feel special please do so.

          Congrats. Kinda strange though, expected you to go to MSU (btw, why is the P capitalized?)

              Poor typing on my part when I created the name, and an even lower quality of proof-reading.

                      Have fun gettin' smoked by UConn the next four years!!




                      JK, college is a great time bro and I'm sure you'll enjoy the hell out of it at Pitt.


                      And I hope that's Miami of OH and not FLA that you're turning down.

                            some words of advice... don't take what other people talk about, whom you dont even know, as a measure of how good a school is. what were you expecting them to talk about? geometry and the different kinds of plants?
                            youd be surprised what people talk about at other schools... i think those MSU people werent hiding the truth, like others do so well at.

                            I can understand that choice, however. I chose a different major, namely because of a few students that I couldnt stand had that as their major as well. I was on the fence about my major as it was.... but looking down the road and seeing them in my same classes for 4 years didnt look too nice.

                            real tough though.. in cases like that, stick with your gut instinct. if you only have a few days then yeah, it could be an easy choice to look at the glaring negatives. in my case, i had 4 months with those folks to decide against it. lol

                              I think the P is capitalized because he is going to Pitt....or maybe he just can't type.
