Well, I'm back in school after taking two years off to basically do nothing other than make some money which I then spent and am now poor again.
So far I've found that college is alright but paying for books sucks especially for the classes that are only 5 weeks long. One cool thing though being in the technology courses is you can download Windows 7 for free and use it on your computer.
My father bought me a new 17-inch Dell laptop for school which I was very surprised about. It's a pretty awesome laptop and I've already loaded it with the latest Adobe CS5 software as required by my college courses. It even has a HDMI port so I can hook it up to my TV which is also pretty awesome.
