| I like RIT enough. I'm studying IT with a concentration in "networking, security, and systems administration", a concentration in "information assurance" and minors in Psychology and Computational Mathematics. I was going to stay here for my Masters (MIS) but I've decided I just can't tolerate being... |

a twisted belt will injure you pretty badly given the right accident conditions. There's always a way to fix it, just keep trying! |

| i like more raceharness :P illegal for street use though. I race my car and don't even use one, no monies in my race budget.

| Just go to a community college and transfer :? I don't think MIT takes community college transfers. Besides, there are several 4-year universities I've already gotten into that I prefer over MIT, so why would I bother?

| in a real, physical situation where I'm stressed I just get pretty bad anxiety feelings. Fast heart rate, sweating, darting eyes, feel like I'm about to vomit.
