1. Dont give up
2. Dont party too much
3. Have fun but dont forget #2
4. Do as many internships and Coops as possible, look for then as soon as possible. They will get you a good job faster than good grades alone.

I have a BS degree in engineering management and taken many ME courses.

Good luck

ya i would say that i do have a serious relationship. been together for almost 2 anda half years

im moving to NC to be with her not join the military her dad is a captain or something high up in the marines and it doesnt seem like something i want to do (be away from my family)

also i dont party... never been a fan of being drunk. hell i havent even tried more than a sip of alcohal before.

once i move down there i am going to look for internships at places. i hear charlotte is HUGE for MEs.

and ya i could not IMAGINE being away from my g/f or family for 15 freakin months... thats unreal. i was away from ashlee (my g/f) for 3 months and it was INSANELY hard on us. i feel dumb saying that when you were away for 15 months but ima kid. lol so i still have alot of time to mature

but the army, marines, reserve none of that is for me.
