I'm a bit of a nerd at heart -- Hell, I suppose all the folks here clinging onto a console over 20 years old has to have some nerdiness in them.

Anyway, just interested in where people went for their ejumakayshun.  For me:

John Marshall High (Los Angeles)
Pasadena City College
Univ of Southern California
Univ of Melbourne (currently enrolled)

There seems to be quite a few Cali folks here (or who have ties to California) -- Anyone a Barrister/Lancer/Trojan? (Prob unlikely... but never know!)

Here are all of the schools that I can remember going to:

Preschool in New Jersey (I forgot the name of it, though; was it Kathy Preschool :cry:?).
Bendorf Elementary School (after I'd moved to Las Vegas).
Lawrence Junior High School
Durango High School (for my freshman year)
Spring Valley High School (it opened as I was entering my sophmore year, and I had recieved my high school diploma from there).
University of Nevada Las Vegas

I'm currently trying to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science. It is within my best wishes that I will be able to obtain it :).

DONE WITH FINAL EXAMS!  W00t!  =D&gt;  They seem to finish a tad earlier for here for the summer (December) break, so that's that!

Good luck to the rest of you that are still in school & are heading into the exam period.

Nice Termis!  =D&gt;   :dance:

There were a couple years in University where I "lucked" out and had all my exams and papers finished in the first week of December. It was painful having all those assignments and exams crammed together like that, but it was worth it in the end. Having an entire month off away from school was sweet, especially when you have a job on top of it.

Nah, "d'ya" would be an abbreviation for "do ya" not "did ya".  Otherwise it would be "Where'd ya go to school".

Haha, yeah -- can't stay that way for too long though.  Now that we're on our long summer break (2 months), I gotta go and try to find some extra cash during the times.  It's tough getting by only on one income these days.

Curtis High School, Staten Island NY.  But I ditched alot and smoked blunts, and drank disgusting malt liquor that I could never imagine drinking now.   

Those were some rough times...

Basically, if you guys are familiar with all those 80's anti drug propaganda and D.A.R.E. Officers, I did not listen to them, except about Crack.  Remember kids, Crack is no good, it will make you steal from your homeboys and you cant play double dragon if your on Crack.
