In Australia, if you live in Melbourne, you go to a College in Melbourne. I think in my class of 100 (and this goes for most courses), there would be 2-3 interstate students. Obviously, international students pay a lot extra, but for an Australian Citizen, we pay in the way I showed you before. And rofl at your mum, bl with that. My mum was tight on me during HS but once I got to College, I was paying the fee's so if I stuffed up, then thats my fault. In my HS, of the kids that went to college, probably 15-20 stayed in state out of 300.

Thats incredible, why is that though? Is it because Colleges in the US specialise more than in other countries or are kids actually looking for a more real college experience (if that makes sense)?

Our town is different because it's pretty wealthy. Public education is the cheaper alternative to private, so if you can afford a good private school, they tend to be of better quality. Specialization matters too, definitely. But the public schools do have big in-state %s.

In VA, it's the opposite, at least in the part where I'm living.

I played on the VCU court awhile back. Do you live near Richmond at all? I've been to Richmond and Va. Beach (Dan, Nanz, our friend Drew and I went there before school began.)
That's my Virginia story.

I just found a butterscotch candy in this big box of candies my roommate got today. Makes my night 5% better. Which is probably closer to 1% considering how shitty my calculation can be. I though I had an A in this fucking class.

Yeah, got that vibe. It seemed touristy, but the beach strip was insane.

The people seem to artsy though I was stationed at Lanley AFB for a few years. It was a bit of a boring area. Most people do look to get away first chance they have.

Martinez, why do you have to drag everyone down with you? When you said you were back in school, didn't I say good for you? Anyway, I responded to that guy without telling him I thought he completely missed the point.
