If you like Cars for example, then you can search majors that require building, designing, or testing cars.

If you like to build buildings then architecture is one of those. Those who major in that = you can come up with amazing drawings of houses, towers, bridges, highways, ect...

One of my friends he is graduating this year in Petroleum Engineering from Cal State Long Beach and the best part is he got interviewed by this company and once he graduates = off to work.

Computer science is also another great major. A couple of my friends are majoring in that and if you dream in video games then that'll be cool. Working for your dream developer except EA lol.

What motivated me to purse my major was because of Chemistry and I thank my high school teacher for that. When I was senior I was really lost on what I wanted to be and then the teacher she said that I had this passion in Math and in Science and should do research in Chemistry. Then after a week of researching then bam. Made my decision and so far now 2 years later. I look back and still proud of the right decision I made.

In this world you can be a doctor, police man, lawyer, even the president o7 ect...

It will last me about 2 years or so but will never be as powerful as my desktop which is for design and video editing.


Sorry for double post. But DEFINITELY java. Almost at a year and a half experience with it.. Im not good but i might just stay with it.

I need to learn Python to really use blender... What do you make games in?]]>

Right now I'm in VB


VB is great to use! I only have a year experience with it though but there's one thing i like...

It's quick. Just click click type enter enter enter type.

Java? ..... JPanel n JFrame :( not so quick to make a window.

Timers and loops can't run together in VB! Remember that.


We are going to learn that next month the loops and stuff. Even the If statements.

I only have to take C++ and continuing C++.

With my major being Chemical Engineering.
Im half way done in Math. Can't take Physics till Calculus 1 is done. Im currently in Pre Calculus. I have to finish till Differential Equations and Linear Algebra. Since after high school (Class of 2013) went straight to community college = cheap and not bad. So by Spring 2017 Im done and transfer to UCLA.

My list of UC's are UCLA , Berkeley, Stanford, Irvine, and Chico.

Either of those Im ok but my mom doesn't want me to move out = <.<... but she just has to understand. I will visit though.

I won't even take loans well maybe a small load but if that was the case then I would pay it off fast and ignore the Low interest rate. I dont wanna be reminded to pay a loan for like 20 stupid years = Nope.

In money wise I only spend on school. Financial aid really helps. Social life for me is meh. Not interested in meeting people nor relationships. I find it being single to be very relaxing and just peaceful. No complaints, bs, girl problems, none nada zero.

I'll make sure to live a simple life as possible. Taxes =mmm maybe since we dont know where the momey is going = if the Government isn't wanting to tell us then well we should have the option to NOT pay. I hate it when congress passed the making it mandatory to pay taxes in the 20th century. Why should corporations pay less while we are being sucked up by our wallets. I wonder what happen to equality and liberty.



Tell me a bit about chemical engineering. Next year is university for me and i still don't know what to choose!

I see where your mom is coming from... She's tryna look out for you.. Especially with the amount of craziness going on nowadays..


HONESTLY! The system is so taxing! But thankfully here in ontario minimum wage went up a dollar... And in Canada if you're under the age of 18, the government gives $60 to the family monthly



Just that $60 is tax deductible so...
The system abusing exploits to get money out of us.

If carbon taxing becomes a thing give up on life for now...]]>

On paper, Dust is amazing

- True free-to-play
- On a common platform
- Reasonable payment model
- Extremely customizable playstyles
- Unique (PvP only FPS MMO)
- Deep & rewarding progression system

Then I think about what it's like for a new player getting spat out of the academy after one decent afternoons playtime. I wonder how many public matches it takes them to work out just how far behind the bulk of the playerbase they are, and how much of an SP and ISK grind is ahead of them before they even begin to field the same kind of HP and DPS figures? Then I wonder why they'd stick around when they could just as easily (cost aside) jump into literally any other FPS and be given a fighting chance as a new player.

npe is terrible

been saying it forever they need to extend battle academy drastically]]>

The laptop won't be just for gaming but for school as well.

Im using Microsoft Visual Studio for my computer class to create Windows aka applications and then spring take C++ and one more computer class.

I have a quiz today so yay. Our project is to create a bookstore. Im planning to create a application for Dust 514 but idk. Kinda like a stock market but since Dust has many items = long time it will take.

mm i have a custom desktop

i run windows 7 for school and gaming

linnux mint 17 for personal use
and avlinux for work (so i can manipulate flash streaming sites to push my stream faster than everyone else)

you should look into a triple monitor rig

i find it ideal for school

get a nice 24 -26 inch
with 2x 21 or 22 inch and then you set up your side monitors in landscape so you have you big monitor running normal and your little ones sideways like wings

http://www.amazon.com/Mount--MI-753-Computer-Monitors-Compatible/dp/B00BDT072S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1444143186&sr=8-1&keywords=triple+monitor+mount

im using this and have a 24 inch running normal and 2 21 inch's running vertical

is ******* epic for writing an essay you can have word open on you main screen and your research on your left and right screens]]>
