Living large... Well, probably not that large... :p

Just so you know....

I dunno if anyone noticed but I kinda blocked any external access to my block for a few days... After being bullied by an asshole, I tried to block access for stuff like that...
But, who can't stop an user to bully another one...
As my loyal (who? P: sarah perhaps...) readers may have noticed... yes, I'm 25 and still studying... I made wrong choices before and yes, I am a mature student(what qualifies you as mature?), but that is only my business... This guy decided that it was funny to make fun of me, just cos I'm 25 and still at school... I do guess he finished school by 19 or something... and feels he has a right of ruining a perfectly nice day for me with so ill intentioned comments....at least I'm doing something out of my life, instead of dropping out of school all together...
I started on marketing, but since my dad wouldn't let me change my major, I had to stay studying something I knew I wasn't made for... and then stuff got a bit out of control, and when my family finally realize the huge mess I've made, it was a few years too late... and at 22 I started on a new university from scratch, by my own decision, I decided to take all the classes and not bring any from my old university...
Now, in the 2007, I'm finally 11 classes away from graduation... You see, that's the difference when you like what u r studying... and I do like it...
So, as you can guess he really pushed the wrong buttons... I am aware of the wrong things I did... I have to live with my mistakes... It's annoying enough to see my friends graduate and move on with their lives, while I'm still stuck in school... to have someone, that really has not right to make fun of me, reminding me those things... I try to be polite on my online life, cos I see no reason on making fun on people online... different cultures, different backgrounds, different perspectives on life... I understand all that... it's sad that some ppl don't see it... I hope this guy will just stay away from my blog, and avoid making any comments, as I'm not interested in reading whatever he may have to say...
I'm sorry I let all this come out... but in case you were wondering like him... that's the explanation why me at my "old age" am still at school.... P:

P.S. If I'm a mature student... how would you call him?

How much would you pay for Radiohead?Merry Merry Merry Xmas!

I got a bunch of used polymer clay packs from a craftster's swap.... and I have been playing with it... It's like playing with play-doh... just with a lasting effect... :D
And I wish the camera's condition only needed charged batteries... P: I completely died... it's just insane...

Yo, stay in school!!!!!

I am 39 and back in school going for my PhD in Computer Science. I manage 5 brilliant college interns at my office.

I am not your typical black guy - I have taken 3 startup companies to the NASDAQ and have been a Habitat for Humanity sponsor since college. Well, I have been arrested (like most black men), but not for robbery, for driving my Porsches and Corvettes over 130mph.

There is an intellectual deficit in the USA> I am part Canadian so I sometimes think Canadians should retreat, but smarts will prevail in America.

if not, I am so buying an island and bringing all you with me

Hi everybody,

Can somebody suggest me a better online shopping website where I can purchase a Gold Hoop Earrings at reasonable prices. However, I searched the web and find the resources i.e.

http://www.topestore.com

http://www.latest-beauty-tips.com

http://www.safeshoppe.com

where the prices are compartively low.
Please suggest if you have some other better resources.
