Dougiefresh 0 #1 May 27, 2005 Hmmm... 5 minutes ago I was just another guy. Now I'm a Master of Materials Science. It's amazing. It all comes down to three signatures on a piece of paper. I sacrificed a 3+ year relationship, financial stability and my mental health, and in the end I still have no freakin' clue. Fuck it, Dude.

Dougiefresh 0 #12 May 27, 2005 Well, right now it comes with the freedom to jump all summer. And I intend to use that freedom to its fullest.

Sure it does... things like metallurgy, engineering stronger materials for building construction, the best mix of concrete or glue, etc... there are lots of possibilities out there."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougiefresh 0 #21 May 28, 2005 Unfortunately, you won't see me this weekend. My grandparents are sick so I'm going to help take care of them. Besides, I have to move out of my apartment...so probably no jumping for me until Wed. And job-wise, I'm looking at semiconductor companies, thin film research, silicon micromachining, stuff like that. It should pay well, but I'm more interested in skydiving than work right now anyway.
