You must be a science major.




Most of my classes are probably 80%+ Chinese (computer science.)

Yeah,

As I started hitting my 3000-4000 level classes there is literally nothing but asians/indians and white people.

Yeah man honestly you have a few paths you can take coming out with a science degree. Most people plan on med school (which I never wanted to do...don't want to be a doctor).. with obamacare and socialized healthcare you won't make money doing it anymore... You can jump into a lab tech position which don't pay that much.. You can join the army or similar and they throw you through office training then off to whatever you want to specialize in be it you qualify. Get Masters degree and bypass the entry level aspect of just having a bachelors. Or if you are lucky you know someone who can get you into a good position right off the bat.

basically you need to specialize in a specific area. Not that I haven't had plenty of good job offers, I just can't take them when trying to do all the work to get a masters. It's retarded. ass backwards. The sciences are difficult territory at first but it all pays off in the end. Money isn't my main goal. I want to live comfortably of course but I also like research and shit along them lines. Main goal would be to get into drug development...which you need MS or Ph.D

That's fair. I've just hated all the research i've done throughout my undergrad career. It's just so goddamn tedious and it never works out how you expect it to. Combine that with shitty equipment and time constraints and you've basically got a disaster on your hands. To be honest, I'm probably gonna go into sales :shrug:

There are very few white people in my classes, maybe 5-10% or so. The rest of the non-Chinese people are mostly from elsewhere in Asia or the Middle East.

For those who want to change the world and attending school. Drop out. Only stay if you are trying to fit in to this place. If you wanna do something great and upset the status quo, drop out. If you can't see yourself doing that. Ask why.


--------------------

Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Psalm 12:6
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Hebrews 11:3
Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Revelation 3:11
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Yeah there's a difference though. Research and development in almost any field is where it's at. R&D in engineering is basically a gold mine especially if your contracted by the military.

so in one month i will be starting school in humboldt.  i am terribly nervous about the whole situation and am definitely gonna need something for the train/bus ride so i don't have a panic attack.  but even just thinking about completely starting over gives me slight anxiety attacks. 

how have you that have gone off to college, how was the transition? like leaving home and being on your own? is it weird being off on your own? i know these questions may sound weird, but i am really nervous for thus upcoming adventure.




heaphones help alot. just sit and get comfortable and zone out to music

I did that longboarding to class but not during lecture. Just listen. Lecture just gives you test tips or examples. The studying solidifies curve balls.

Don't get lonely, Mingle around

Don't do drugs

Get Enough Sleep

Eat Well

Take a shower everyday

Don't take more classes than you should

Submit your papers on time

Call your folks once in a while and tell them you love them

...and don't do drugs,, get laid though as often as you can

Meet as many people as you can,
But don't forget to make time for yourself as well!

Also don't skip class, unless you know you can get away with it.
