What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

It rained all night around here so it kept many kids home.

Last year I got close to 100 kids (actually ran out of candy and had to shutoff my light). This year I got 29. Lots of leftover candy bars that I have no interest in eating. Near the end I started giving handfuls to kids. LOL.

Yeah that's the only upside to the kids not going out as much as usual. Halloween time is the only time of the year that I binge on lollipops and candy bars.

Rashard Lewis is amazing in 2k7. Once he catches fire no one can stop him. Too bad Duncan is also amazing

Oh man... it's rediculous going against him... he hits everything. As for Duncan, I'm glad he can't be stopped because he's on my team.

About the full bars Longhorn... you should have found a party instead. I don't really like clubbing in all honesty, and the whole bar scene... I love to party, and the best way to party is to go to a party.

I'm the same actually. I don't like clubbing either. Don't know what it is.

That's the thing about PC...especially on a night like Halloween...everyone is out at the bars, so there aren't really any parties going on around campus. Usually on weekends we go to the bars on friday and then a house party on saturday, though, so that saves some money.

Yeah, I'm not really too big on the bar scene, but ya gotta adapt to what you have and...that's what we have here so I'm trying to get into it.

True... I think that was my main problem getting into the whole club/bar thing, and that would be the rediculous dough you have to drop and you are not even guaranteed to have a good time. One thing I don't like much about parties though, is the fact that I don't throw them... meaning the music is usually mainstream trash that - yeah, you can grind to - but it's not enjoyable to listen to at all. I know some underground rap that you can grind to and I know tons of underground I can enjoy. I wish I was playing the music.

It was the opposite for me, I was Lewis facing Duncan. Duncan had 18 points and 7 rebounds in the first quarter alone. Fortunately, they quit going to him after I put Mouhammad Sene on him.

Lewis is amazing for me, he's averaging 30 ppg, he's passed Ray Allen as my primary option.

Too bad Ridnour screwed up twice in the final minute, costing me the game

Yup...one night out at the bar usually costs around 20 dollars.

Then you add in the food you order when you're drunk(especially considering the 3 amazing pizza places right around the bars) and you get closer to 30.

May not seem like a lot...but for college kids without jobs, 20-30 dollars twice a week is pretty damn expensive.

Although, that's usually why we go on Weds. 1 dollar drafts and 4 dollar pitchers

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

At least, unlike them, I'm not already drunk. They're all sitting in the room across the hall in a druken state probasbly watching a movie or something.

That's still more fun than studying for a test.

Sadly, I am doing pretty much the same thing.

Yeah...but being drunk and trying to study for a test would be a bad idea. At least this way I can actually study and, sort of, retain some of the knowledge.

How's UConn going, anyway? Having fun there?

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

Uconn's pretty cool.

I don't have many complaints.

And you don't have to spend $30 at a bar to get drunk.

You should have come here.

Too big of a school for my liking, in all honesty. Minus the whole...party scene at PC, everything else is exactly what I wanted in a school, so it works out in the end. Plus...pregaming is like the party-before the party, so it's all good. We still have room parties and house parties...just, sorry to say, not as frequent as I would've liked.

I may be going out to visit UConn sometime this year though...just to see how much i would've liked the weekend-life there, haha.

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

I am really beginning to regret not transferring, or at least attempting to transfer to the UConn School of Law in Hartford. The commute wouldn't be that different than it would be to Springfield, probably an extra 20 minutes each way.

I was talking with some people last night about the professors we have had, and how little we actually learned. Last year we had some worthless visiting prof from New England School of Law, which I can safely say is one of the schools that sits below WNEC in the scheme of things, and it was apparent from her teaching. In fact she is the first and only professor I have ever believed I had a better knowledge and grasp of the material than they did. I am also pretty sure I can get 30 classmates to agree. Then to top off the little bit she taught us, she handicapped us on the exam with ridiculously short word limits. Of the people I spoke with who I knew were at or near the top of our class, everyone said that has been there worst grade by far.

Next we have my Evidence teacher from last year. She used some ridiculous work book to teach the material. She also gave us optional reading from a Horne book (previously, every professor I had strongly advised not using those), which typically amounted to an insermountable task. She spent at least half the class on Hearsay, which as important as it is, is still a joke. She completely rushed through or skipped major chunks of the rules of evidence. Every T/Th before CrimPro there is an Evidence class meeting, and I can safely say they are learning 100x more than we did.

Then last night in Trial Methods, a course I need with the law I want to practice, we were let out 40 minutes early, after we spent the previous hour talking about Juvenile law. We were supposed to be learning how to get introduce evidence, sort of an important skill, which now has been skipped over in the 2 classes I should have learned it in. We were let out early because the professor didn't review the material before class, fine **** happens, but this was the second straight week class was cut short because he failed to prepare. I know to the HS/College kids getting out of class early sounds great, but when it is crucial to learn the stuff for your future livelihood, you get pissed quick.

Add to that, yesterday I looked at some questions from the most recent Massachusetts Bar Exam, and wow I didn't begin to know how to answer. Fortunately it was from a class I haven't had yet, but nonetheless that isn't good. I now realize my final semester will need to consist of Trust & Estates, Real Estate Transactions, and some other fun bar review course. None of this is what I plan on doing, but now I need to.

Maybe UConn wouldn't be different, but it is a highly ranked school, so I can't believe it would be this bad.

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

My dorm's "Recreation of the Fifa World Cup" starts today.

I got stuck with Paraguay, and have my Group Stage game against England today. Should be pretty interesting. I know I can beat my roomate(who happens to be T&T in my group) and I should be able to be the England player, I'm just worried about the lack of skill in Paraguay's midfield catching up with me and cancelling out my 06 WC skill.

Should be interesting.

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

Last night I downloaded some program that lets you watch some TV channels on your computer. I accidently left it running all night, and apparantly it uses a lot of bandwith.

Today I got an email that I violated my bandwith limit, so for the next 7 days I get my speed restricted. And it isn't fun. Not sure exactly how fast it is now, but it seems a lot slower than I ever remember 56k being.

[WTF]

Re: What the Hell is on Your Mind Thread

:y4: They have bandwidth restrictions? I have used those programs, and left them running for days, but never received any notifications or anything.
