Well, I did have this entire thing about college I wrote about (mainly concerning what I want to do eventually), but I got the Blue Screen of DEATH, which closed my window for some reason. I refuse to write it again.
Anyway, I understood very little of what you said. Including the catch-all thing. Then again, I don't care a single bit about politics, and it wasn't entirely neccessary for me to learn, so I didn't. *loves being homeschooled*

Aww, sorry I missed the college rant. And don't worry if you don't get the "catch-all" thing. If you're not in politics, you don't need to know. But if you are, like the people in that class, YOU SHOULD!

I suppose they prepare you for this kind of stuff in school, but I'm homeschooled, so

Computer game programming is cool as long as we can extract a promise from you that you'll never sell out and make terribly done games in half the time and claim they're the greatest thing since sliced bread. Programming is a little too math oriented for my abilities, but if you can do more than I can (which doesn't take much), more power to you.
I'm an insomniac too, especially in times of high stress. I worked around it at college. I was tired a lot, of course. And when you can't work around it...well, that happened to me and it was bad. But you survive.
But to end on an up note...LiveJournal is a lot of fun, if you have time to maintain it. Which, as people have been able to see, I have not. But get one anyway and get comments from random strangers.
