I was scanning through the TV channels one day and landed on Dr. Phil and there was this guy who's been in college for 13 years and wants to continue to go for the rest of his life lol..I think he's the one who they named that law after where you can only go for so long before you have to pay everything out of pocket if you wish to continue.

i don't go to school but i'm planning to go back by next year hopefully, i was lucky to finish a 2 year course in computer, i never even had used what i learned. I tried having 2 jobs before and it aint easy, i lasted 1 year doing that. I had a co worker before that has 2 jobs and she goes to school plus she gets up around 4am to work out and we get off work at 11pm... damn!

I just started my first year at LSU

I didn't work, but I played in their marching band which took lots of time. I took 16 hours the first semester and 19 hours the second semester :computer:
Now I work at Chuck E Cheese for the summer about 40 hours a week.

I just finished my freshman year of college. Went to school from 8-12 everyday and then drove 25 miles to work right after. Working for my dad at his car lot right now. I also buy and resell cheap cars through his lot. Decent wages and profits from cars but I'm seeking another job.
