haha.. yea, the reason I didn't want to go to medical school was b/c it would be hard as hell and take up half my life !

wow, you've got it all planned out lol.. I need to plan ahead and get some goals planned out too..

Haha, I'd say! Especially if you're graduating in a month.

Ooo.. awesome. Thanks.

Haven't I seen this thread before?

Baby, It's A Fact - Hellogoodbye

tuh, myspace.. Some girls at my school were actually stalked and abducted by some dude on myspace.. So they blocked myspace with websense.. but we all just use a proxy to get around it.

Omgosh that's ridiculous. (about the abduction)
Yeah, that hasn't happened here but my school is basically like a prison so they also blocked myspace. The weird thing is they blocked all the proxy websites too... so I don't really know how to get around that.

haha, yea.. only one more month for me!! If I did something in health care I would do pre-med, then hopefully go to medical school and become a doctor (neurologist would be nice..)

Where do you plan to go for college? VT?

Oh, that's awesome. I wanted to be a neurologist for quite some time and then realized how extremely hard it would be (plus the amount of years spent in school). So I settled for NP.

VT doesn't really have what I'm looking for, so I'm going to a local college for 4 years and then Mountain State University for the next 2 years. I've got it all planned out. Lol.

sharp edges on

Do you also

George Washington -> president

Grammar is hard to master sometimes.

really? that's cool.. You're a junior right? I'm still not sure if I want to major in something computer related or go into the medical field too..

Yep, junior :-/
I can't wait for high school to be over and actually focus on things that really matter to me.
What would you do if you chose something in healthcare?

Lol... I don't have facebook... I'm an addictive member of myspace as of now.

Yeah... I don't think it really matters, as long as you're doing it in the remembrance of them. That's really all that tomorrow is. Remembering and honoring the people who died.

Lol.. I absolutely love learning about the human body. It's so interesting. That's why I'm studying to become a Nurse Practioner.

Yeah, it would just be nice if people participated tomorrow.

You have facebook? (totally off topic, I know lol).

Constitution -> founding fathers

pasture

I don't like science. The only branches I like is chemistry and human anatomy/physiology.

Yeah, it's totally off topic.. sorry.

True, the media is stupid sometimes.

I also love

places you fear

you get a sucky thank you note. ;)

i put in a "great job."

revolution -> revolutionary war

Yeah, it's Virginia Tech.

Lucky is an understatement. :)

America -> industrialized

chase

that place so

completely out of

Oh and if anyone wants to participate:

Tomorrow, April 20, 2007, is being declared as Hokie Hope Day in honor of the victims of the Virginia Tech shootings. Everyone is invited to show their support for the Virginia Tech family by wearing the VT clothing or school colors of orange and maroon.

Additionally, Governor Bill Ritter is encouraging places of worship and other facilities across the state to join in a nationwide bell-ringing and moment of silence. That'll take place at 10 a.m. on Friday. Governor Ritter has also ordered the Colorado flag to fly at half-staff at state facilities until Sunday. President Bush had previously ordered U.S. flags fly at half-staff through Sunday.

Friday also marks the eighth anniversary of the attacks at Columbine High School in Littleton.

So, if you'd like to participate and show support, that would be great. My entire high school is also encouraged to do this tomorrow.
Thanks.

Truthfully? Probably nothing.. Unless many people start a petition or start lobbying for a change in gun control policy.

Yeah, and even then, they probably won't do anything.

Yes, in our fictional utopias guns and killings would not exist. But we've got to be REAL here. Guns will never be outlawed; We should be thinking of ways to better the current gun control laws.. Such as no one with disabilities can own a gun.. or no foreign immigrants can own a gun (I'm just throwing ideas out there). This was a terrible incident... But we've got to realize that it has happened before, and it will happen again... (Hopefully not as many people will die next time, though)

Right.
But what will the government do? They need to do something soon.

:) I agree... I use 'lol' alllll the time.

Best friends are hard to find.

Sorry.. I don't know the guy's name b/c its korean lol.. Don't feel bad as you haven't done anything wrong.. I guess I'll call him Cho now..

I never realized he was admitted to a mental health facility in 2005.. And I was almost positive that you could not obtain a gun in any of the states if you had been admitted to an institution..

Ok, thanks. :)

Yeah I know, I thought so too... it's weird... =/

I agree It's not gun control we should be worried about. Rather the person controlling the gun.

And how are we supposed to fix that problem? We can't control who gets a gun... as long as they pass a background check and such, they get one. I mean come on, the rules have to be changed one day, before it's too late. And to me, it has already become too late.

I want you guys to know that I'm not disagreeing with you at all. I understand completely that it is in the control of the person holding the gun in their hand. But I'm just not a big fan of guns... they scare me. :S I feel that the amount of death tolls in this country would decrease without the possessions of guns... I mean, why wouldn't it? I know everyone says that people would just start making bombs, but seriously...? I don't know, maybe I'm just flat out wrong.

The Secrets In The Telling - D&C

in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

...but who killed all those people? Not guns.. It was the south korean dude. If he hadn't abused the gun control laws, then those people would still be alive. Why should everyone who owns a gun be punished for what some korean did?

Well maybe if people would have realized that he shouldn't have had any ownership of guns, then this wouldn't have happened. He was admitted into a mental health facility in 2005.
(please don't say stuff like 'what that korean did' ... I kinda feel awkward because I'm half Korean.)

wealth -> rich

race

I like racing games also...
But one game I absolutely love is Zeldo on the Wii.

that can often

yeah I seem to use '=/' a lot too.

I use these sometimes...

I truly am sorry about what happened over there. And I believe I did mention that there was an [obviously smaller] shooting at the school I attend. I was on campus when it happened. No, we didn't have 30 people killed, so our story didn't make the sensationalist national media, so it hardly gets attention outside of local media. That was the second gun related crime incident in about a month and a half here (the other being armed robbery, nobody was hurt), not to mention another shooting that occured last spring (those are the incidents I remember at least). And I'm just talking about stuff within 3 blocks of my school and where I live. Don't tell me to be mature about it, don't tell me to grow up, and don't tell me that I don't know what it's like to be that close to a shooting.

My point was that just because you've been shaken up by an incident (very understandable), doesn't mean that you suddenly have the power to affect the rights of others. And I'm certainly not going to forfeit my right to defend myself with the best means available to me.

Okay, then you should know how I feel.

Well, my point was just the fact that I hate the gun control in this country. And it's hurting innocent people.

I don't care what you think. And I'm right.

(I know this is an idiotic post. I'm making a point about yours.)

Okay, you DON'T know the kind of affect it had over here. I am just minutes away from Blacksburg. I go there a lot. And I'm sorry but there was a guy from right here, where I live, that was shot. So don't be a complete jerk about this situation. Stop being immature and grow up!

There are several questions that science cannot answer today. What does this mean? That there must be some super being creator out there somewhere? No, only that our technology is not quite there yet. In the future science will be able to answer everything; there will be no religion in the world. But as far now, I simply stick to the laws that govern the universe. They have never been wrong yet..

I guess.
