I wish, I can't commit to a diet which is necessary.
The good foods just don't get brought into my house.

Good, stop being an emo bitch now.

Maybe I should apply there.

Maybe I should apply there.

It's a really good school. Especially for education.

I don't need an education degree. I'm going to grad school, so with a PhD, I can teach anywhere.

I'm just going to the best one in the country. If it's free, I might apply there just because grad apps are a fuckton of effort, and I didn't build a statement of purpose or vita to not submit it to everyone willing to look at it.

Oh fair enough.

All of my recommended colleges were located in Florida/California, and unless I can get my current financial plan kicked into gear, I'm gonna have a hard time getting the money for tuition there. My current plan is to do computer security, penetration testing, website design, venture capital, flipping houses and cars, and a bit of ebay vending to get around a hundred and sixty thousand a year. Highly unlikely that I'll be as successful as my numbers projected, but hey - I'm down with anything over 100k a year, and that should be easy enough because a normal computer security job runs about 60k starting salary to 100k normal salary, and then website design would pay 1k-2k per website on the side, and pen testing jobs for random companies would pay a fairly large amount depending on the size of the company. and that's not even including the stuff that I'm not sure if I'll do or not (Flipping houses and cars and doing venture capital and all of that)

At the moment, I'm not allowed to get a job because I should "focus on school more" before I get one I've also been thinking of getting into a vulnerability reporting program like Zero Day Initiative to get paid for debugging programs, but with a week of experience so far I'm not too good. That would bring in 1-5k per exploit though, which could be awesome to make just for screwing around on the computer after school and stuff.

But congratulations on getting accepted! That's awesome!

>setting the bar at 100k/year

lol

Just go wherever offers you a scholarship. Most colleges have academic scholarships wherein they'll let you attend for free if you keep above a 3.0/3.5/etc.
