As do I. Doing things this way is sort of weird.

[rockandrose]

Surely, it won't be long till the Introductions section will be filled with millions of new threads.

Ah well.

[Sanctus Dei]

Anyone know anything about the Art Institute?? I'm worried if I go there for Media Arts and Animation and pay the ridiculous tuition, I will come out of it in debt with a Bachelors degree no companies respect... Advice anyone??

(AI of Pittsburgh via online correspondence if you need me to narrow it down)

[winged_dreams]

Meh, I feel guilty for not being on so much. But sometimes I feel like I don't have anything to contribute.

Anyways, I just need a top for my Valentine's Day outfit to be complete.

[cannibalnuns]

Bollocks! You do have plenty to contribute.

Hi winged. Haven't seen you in a while, missed yah.

[winged_dreams]

*dances* I'm happy. Only four more classes to take and then I can get my degree! Woot!!

[mortalitas incomitatus]

i'm hungry....feed me please/thankyou

[sensuous0mar]

That actually is the rule. I've had to wash her nasty dishes before. It's gross.

[WolfMoon]

Hey Winged!



Sanctus, I have no idea about the Art Institute. But I would check online and ask around at different places and see wht the real colleges that people hire from are. The main thing should be your art, not where you learned it, though. Just blow them away, luv. I mean with your art of course. Wow them!

[sensuous0mar]

Um...I don't know where you're from...but I go to a great school for art. We have a 98% in field job placement rate within a year after graduation. It's fab. I'm an art major...incase you didn't know.

Personally I am not a fan of the Art Institute. Their tuition is ridiculously over priced, and I was not impressed with what they offered for said ridiculous price.

I would be inclined to suggest you look for a reputable college or University in your area, with a good Media Arts program. It's hard to go wrong with a Bacehlor's from a University. Plus you can take your core classes at a local community college to save money, and then transfer to a University as a Junior to take your degree specific classes and finish your Bachelor's.

That's what I am doing, and I have saved a TON of money doing it that way.

I was also put off by the fact that the Art Institute, really puts on a hard sell. I don't like being pressured, and at least in Houston, they simply were relentless.

Have you considered applying for Financial Aid through the Federal Government?

I can help walk you through that process, if you want to see if you are eligible.

Pm me or whatnot, and I'll show you how to apply for FAFSA.

Glad your thinking about doing the degree. I kick myself daily for not doing it myself twelve years ago.

I just know you will be fabulous.

*Licks*

I still can't believe it's not butter.

Well, the reason I'm almost 100% going to The Art Institute of Washington unless I don't get accepted hehe.... Is because they don't really focus on core classes such as english, math, science, and history.

For the entire 4 year program I'd take a total of 1 math class, 2 history classes, and 1 science class. Only having 4 liberal arts classes out of 12 semesters in my opinion is pretty sweet.

[Mr E Nigma]

Oh EPS, I also meant to ask you if you know much about Melatonin. I've looked a bit, but I thought I'd see if anyone has any experience with it. It's supposed to be a healthy sleeping aid. My mom picked it up for me, and to anyone else who might know about it. I'm open to anything. I just want to satisfy my parents' wants of me sleeping at night time more, and not only getting 2-3 hours of sleep. I mean they have put up with it for 7 years. I should probably try a little harder to improve my problem and I don't want it just for them, I do want it for myself as well.

OKay this leads me to my second problem then guys.. I need an online course because making it to class is damn near impossible with my work schedule. I swear I feel like I am stuck under a financial vs. convenience rock at the moment.

I have taken quite a few online classes. They do require a bit more discipline, but as long as you pick classes that aren't going to toally bust your balls, the flexibility they offer is very nice.

It really depends on what you are going to take. Most Community Colleges and Universities offer a variety of online classes.

Ask Xng for info on the colleges in your area. She has some good information.


Mr. Penguin..

Yes, I have taken Melatonin. I wouldn't reccommend something to you guys that I had not first tried myself. It is gentle and easy on your system. Or at least it was on mine. I found that if I took it about an hour before I was ready to sleep, after a long hot bath, it worked best.

Also try and avoid caffeinated products altogether, but especially during the evening hours. They don't jive well with the Melatonin.

In addition, try and get your room as dark as possible. Our bodies are genetically predisposed to entering a sleeping state, during nighttime hours. The darker your room, the deeper your sleep will become.

Last but not least, try some Chamomille Tea with the Melatonin. Chamomille is naturally relaxing, and the two together were very helpful for me..

Let me know how it works out for you..

Here's hoping you can get a good nights sleep.

[edible_eye]

i've been sick as a dog for the past 3 days...

boo hoo.

- ok, back to bed. -

Well it said to take it 20 minutes before sleep. I took it around 10:28 and went to bed around 11:00. I did fall asleep faster than normal. I ended up going unconcious around midnight-ish. As much as I was happy to sleep longer than usual. I woke up around 1:30 with a slight headache. Got to bed again around 3:00 and woke up at approximately 5:30. =shrugs= I'm guessing a lot of it's because I don't think I'll sleep well. I just need to get used to the stuff and allow myself the ability to sleep.

Thanks for the tips I'll try them as well.
