be careful. you can get in a whole lot of trouble for that, pretty sure it's illegal.

First time I ever heard of someone doing this, a college professor told me. Dunno if it's illegal but no one seems to think it's a big deal.

[EDIT] Full ride caps off at a full schedule and I take a couple more classes than that, so it's not like I'm pocketing everything. Thx for tip though.

[EDIT2] Yup I had to agree to use it for school purposes only. That means I can just use it for 'housing' and not pay for it out of my own pocket. Either way I get the money.

Finally got back at an asshole who'd made me feel inferior ten years ago. Wasn't looking for the win, but he ragequit the mailing list and blamed me, so I'll take it.

Yeah, this is actually pretty normal, enjoy your free monies.  Save up, buy car, "transportation to campus."

Both incredibly legitimate suggestions. I've been in the market for a car for a while. This will definitely help out.

Despite what a calender might say, today was the first TRUE day of fall in Arizona. And for the next month and a half it will be the nicest weather anywhere in the world.

First time in my life went to a RL firing range. It was awesome. I can't aim a revolver in RL either.

My fucking word so damn loud, left ear still ringing
