Couldn't sleep last night, no appetite today, and my body aches. Whoever said you couldn't get addicted to weed may have been wrong. Go for a run

My roommate suggested doing 20 push-ups everytime I had the urge to pack a bowl. That's that kind of hokey boot camp bullshit that I love. As for the sleep, it's mostly the dreams that bother me. Weed made me not dream. In other news, I got an email from my school about my semester bill posting and holy poo poo am I glad vocrehab is a thing. gently caress paying $14k for a semester of public school

At CU I would have been paying close to 12k a semester, but with my pell grant, their matching grant, and a few scholarships I signed up for I realized I could've gone to school for free without the GI bill, granted I would've had to pay my expenses out of pocket. I miss starting each year with a cool 8k to blow

Tried talking a couple people in my unit out of Phoenix and DeVry, one of them took my advice and finally just finished his Bachelors in Comp Sci from a local school and left the Air Force for a programming job. The other couple of guys stuck with Phoenix, tried to leave the Air Force, and can't find jobs after completing their "degrees"....

not caring here posted:Sounds like the only thing airtight about that is that he got hosed both in the rear end and in the mouth at the same time. I feel bad for the guy. He loved what he was doing in the military, got medically discharged after getting hosed up in The Suck, decided to get the civilian equivalent degree, and got suckered by some lovely for-profit online college. We're doing the best we can with his situation and at least now he knows to tailor his resume to each job he's applying for instead of shotgunning them  Free advice: get some professional help with writing a resume and cover letter -- even if you think you know how to do it. Feedback never hurt anyone.

My $120k piece of paper will be better than your $1 million piece of paper. (Had someone try to use that as an excuse to gently caress off in school. "I'm doing all of this just for a $120k piece of paper so why work hard?" Goddamn kids are stupid.)

My school is about $35k a year. Throw in dorm fees, required meal plan if you live in dorms, and books and it's closer to $45k a year. It's legit cheaper to pay $1000/month rent and buy your own food than it is to live on campus. Private schools are ridiculously expensive.

There are some private schools near the Twin Cities that cost ~$50k a year. There was some article in the Star Tribune last year where the deans of these schools were whining about how their enrollments were down because of "sticker shock".

One lovely thing they do though is if grad students take undergrad classes they get charged the grad school amount. Summer of 15 I took 4 classes (Was miserable, oops), and had this grad student in one of them. He got charged $7k for one class, I got charged $5k for 4. Mind you my price was due to tuition banding which means you don't get charged for any credits past full time.

Grad programs always charge the going rate if you take an undergrad course. It's part of your graduate degree plan, then it gets charged that rate. Ideally you don't have grad students in undergrad classes though. That usually means you don't have the foundation you should have, or that your degree program has that much slack.
