  1. Eh... I'm not into boobs that much, but from a womans POV I would say number one. Now when is somebody going to post three naked dudes so I can judge?? Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  2. all the people who used to pick on me (and I got picked on EVERYDAY!!) are now either single parents and/or college drop outs, or never went to college at all and are still stuck in the small little piece of shit south Jersey town that we grew up in. (and I live in FL, have a wonderful boyfriend, and about to graduate college with the degree of my dreams.) It's so horrible to say that I feel like they got what was coming to them.

  3. Hey, don't do away with New Jersey!! Well, not only because that's where yours truely was born and raised, but what about all the WaWa's??? I couldn't do without!! Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  4. For the most part the landings are great-- I even jump a white jumpsuit that has hardly seen dirt in 4 years. I was thinking of going with the black for the re-sell factor and all, but it's just so ordinary to see a black rig. I want something different, but will still meet the needs to stay tidy looking for a re-sale down the road. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  5. Ok.... yea, the pink is def. out. I figured I might as well throw one idea in that was totally out there. (obvious in the fact that it didn't look like any of the other designs) The input is helping me to narrow it down, but damn, I didn't know this was such a hard decision! Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  6. wow--- this is AWESOME!! Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  7. I know whats up with it-- it sucks. Go to NOAA.gov. They do the real forecasting. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  8. and some more.... this is it, I promise. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  9. some more..... Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  10. So.... I'm replying to my own post so I can upload some more attachments.... Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  11. So... I got this 50% off a wings certificate burning a hole in my pocket, but I have no clue what color options I should do. I kinda have an idea to do a teal/grey/blue/white possibilities. I dunno.... I need some input!! Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  12. Unless your the girl who's smart enough to not go home with them and become the dropzone bike. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  13. I've had similar problems at DZ's. I feel pretty left out and disgusted recently at some places. One person even approached my boyfriend (who has about 700 jumps) and I and states, "Oh, I see-- hanging out and jumping with your low jumper number girlfriend!" And this is coming from a person who is part of the "sky god" clique at the DZ. I really didn't appreciate it.... in fact, instead of looking down on lower jump numbered people or making comments, why don't you invite me on one of your jumps with your clique?? No.... of course not. I think this is really awesome. I used to jump at a DZ where people do this all the time and it made low numbered jumpers feel very included and I had more fun learning that way. Even when there is organizing, it seems like it's always organizing for the big boys and girls. I would love to see organizing specific for some people inbetween. I understand this could become a zoo, which is why it's nice when a few people who know what they are doing are up on a jump and invite you along on a regular day at the dropzone. I was even just at a collegiate boogie this past weekend which would have been a perfect place to see some organizing with low jump number college students, but there was nothing..... I understand this is a gross stereotype, and not every DZ or high jump number person carries this mentality, but quite a few do; especially in my more recent experiences. I think it's a problem worth looking at, espcially if you look at retention rates for students at certain DZ's. Just from my personal experience-- the DZ I mentioned earlier that made low numbered jumpers feel included, made me so excited to be out there every weekend. I never felt embarassed or dumb like people were looking down on me. In more recent times, I don't even want to go out to the DZ anymore because I feel isolated and looked down upon. I dunno... just my personal experiences and my two cents. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  14. my friday class just got cancled, so I will be getting to the DZ Friday afternoon sometime hopefully. PPEERRRFEECCTT timing for a cancled class. Skydiving, beer, and a 4 day weekend!!
  15. And kiddies, this is sesame street on drugs..... Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  16. not typically known to your typical top 40 radio listener, which happens to be a good chunk of society. Walk through walmart and ask 10 people if they ever heard of these guys and I bet majority will say no. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  17. I always thought that too until I got to my senior level classes, especially dynamic meteorology, and all we do is DiffEQ and BVP. Now I kinda appreciate the DiffEQ that I had. Do I think that I could have gotten a crash 2 day course of "this is the diffEQ you'll need to know to use in this dynamic meteorlogy course," ....yes. But, if schools did that, then they wouldn't get your money for that whole extra class you took for DiffEQ as a pre-req. It sucks. My boyfriend did end up using it in a real world situation once. Funny story-- Us and my roommates were all getting drunk together one night at myhouse and somebody gave a math riddle and none of us could solve it. Matt whipped out some DiffEQ and got an answer-- all while drunk! It was cool beans. I was just pissed because I can hardly do that crap while I'm sober. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar)....

  18. oh, god..... The111 is going to flip his shit when he sees a thread about the Dresden Dolls. I can't believe anybody else listens to that band! And here I just thought he was weird. SOOOO.... EDITED to add that I didn't click on the link until after I made my post (doh!), and that's the exact song I was thinking about when I saw the thread title! This song was good, and there's also one about a girl in a jacket on a slide or something that was played for me too the same time I heard this one. These guys have a pretty unique sound. God, this song is going to be in my head all night now and thats not good when I have to get to bed for an 8am class! Dammit! Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  19. Ha.... yea, I was there a couple semesters ago. Wait till you get to boundary value problems and complex variables. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  20. AMEN.... yep, thats about all I have to say about that.
  21. OMG....I still can't believe you got that thing down to a two way. You're so sick dude. BTW, all the cool people drool on themselves after that game. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  22. I'm in the same graduation boat....but I am definitely not on interviews yet!! I think I'll jump my ney-neys off until spring break and worry about it then! Congrats on the job-- thats cool beans. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
  23. hey....if you come to the collegiate boogie bring that electric star game! I might be mistaken but I think thats you who owns that, right? Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
