Renting

[Aurora]

Seriously. The moment one of these guys fucks up you're going to go from good friends to bitter enemies in not time at all.

It's possible for some places to provide a separate lease for each person. Thus, if one person is a loser and doesn't pay...the others won't be pounished. I had this setup for two yrs in Austin.

LOL.


IP I lived with 2 people I never met before when I was in college and it worked out fine. Each of our names was on a lease and we were treated as seperate tenants. If anything it was like living alone and only occasionaly running into each other. My roommates were older than me and serious about their jobs and education. These guys were working on masters degrees, coaching sports, etc. Just make sure your new roomies are as serious about school as you are. Try and find an english major if you can. It might be in your best interest.

I'm still trying to compute the IP = EE, although I took some engineering classes as easy electives. That's a good racket those guys have going, because none of it is as hard as they want people to think.

Which ones did you take? Something simple and gay like basic DC circuits?

It wasn't EE. I took a couple IE classes, which actually wound up being somewhat useful afterall. What you have to understand is that Purdue engineers are a horribly arrogant group that thinks the school exists for them. Some crazy ass percentage like 30% of all professional engineers have Purdue degrees. Many of the astronauts do in particular. NASA donated a space shuttle simulator to the aeronautical department because of this.

Engineering isn't going to seem hard to anyone in computer science or math because usely the classes that the average joe bob dumb fuck can't get through, are the math classes. These are the same math classes that eng, science, math, and computer majors all have to take the first 2 years.

If you can get a math degree or a computer science degree, you can do Engineering. So I don't really expect for you to think its hard from the few classes you've taken. However it would probably be like pulling teeth for someone like Mr-K or Aurora. Some people just loathe the idea of doing math for hours on end. Hell most people who are math, computer, science, and eng majors still loathe spending hours doing math. They just fight through it becuase they love what you can do with the math later.

I think why many eng act like eng is so hard isn't so much becuase the material is so hard to learn but becuase the first 2/3 years of the material will kill the spirt of the average person. You go in to learn things A,B,C, but you have to take things D,E,F for 2.5 years before you get to do what you want. D,E,F aren't technically hard, but making yourself do 10 pages of each, everynight, while the english majors and history majors our out drinking, complaining about their 10 page highschoolish essay on Blake gets old.

So no, I don't really think the mateiral itself is hard. Making yourself do all of it, learn all of it, everynight, when you don't want to, and everyone else around you isn't, is. There isn't anything really hard about using calc to find the volume of a cone, or using matrices to find the force loads inside a bridge. Its just long and tedious and you have to do it everday, while everyone else is doing the same shit they did in highschool. Unles a person is doing at least 2 or 3 hours of HW everynight in college, they don't have it as hard as the typical math, science, eng, or computer major.

As for why some get big heads, well that is just a matter of personal priorities. You have some people that are in love with the written word and dream of writing wonderful books that will change the world. While you have others that are in love with useing science to make marvilious things like rockets and computers, and big super death robots. Both are going to think the other is kind of stupid. You can't write great books with death robots. Death robots don't know how to write. All they know is how to kill. And you can't build death robots from books and great essays. Death robots are made from metal and death beams.

If an Eng major tells you that his class work is harder than computer, pure sceince (like phyiscs), or math, you can tell him to stick it up his ass.

Oh and Industrial engineerings are jokes. Its a glorfied business management degree.

Could you spell check it first? I would spell check everything but I haven't unpacked my computer.

I'm still trying to compute the IP = EE,

have you ever considered that my over the top, bullheaded, stuborn, idealistic ways may be really good for learning and getting work done?

Hell, wouldn't you lay odds that I could learn to spell if I put half the effort I put into being a prick into learning grammar and spelling?
