gahh i still need to get mine finished, but i think the deadline is later, i just went down to Ames to tour the Iowa State Campus today. It's pretty nice but it's a long ride down there, it's just two hours but it's in the middle of Iowa so the whole way there it's nothing but corn on each side of the car so it felt more like 3 or 4 hours. I still need to decide Iowa or isu
*sigh*

OMG! OK first I have admit to a biased opinion because I went to ISU. But for the love of all things mighty try IOWA. Just to let you know, Ames is a hole is the ground. There are no cool bars, (they are all on two streets in a two block radius of campus) like one movie theatre, no jobs for students, and all the apartments are owned by the same rental agency and so they use that monopoly to charge outrageous prices. If you live in dorms they were built like 30 years ago and you have to still take a shuttle to campus? In Iowa city you actually have a downtown separate from campus and so jobs available if you would want one, not to mention a social scene large enough for everyone to find a place, and the dorms treat you like a student rather then a student loan waiting to be disbursed. On the academic side, IOWA has a better medicine, law, and graduate programs in everything and their biology department has more funding while ISU completely canceled the Zoology program due to lack of funding. And at IOWA the departments for each school have people that give a dam about what you want to do and will individualize your experience at school while at ISU you can only pick from a preset number of "tracks" in any department. Having said my rant. . .n I do apologize for that.
I grew up in Des Moines and so had friends go to both campuses, many people liked diff things about each, so I totally don't mean to intrude in your decision making, it is after all a big decision to make. I was just surprised to see someone talking about my stomping ground. . .Either way best of luck with your choice!

oh wow it's always cool to meet another Iowan or a person that grew up in Iowa. My sister goes to Iowa and she really likes it.
Though i'd really like to go into enviromental sciences or something like that. And what i hear and have looked at ISU has a lot more classes and stuff in that area. What did you study when you were at ISU?
but anyways thanks for the advice, it's good to hear from someone who had a first hand experiance

Trying to put a thermostat in the car I'm driving right now. Broke a bolt off so not I'm at a standstill until I can get into work on Monday morning to get more tools.
Of course, I need the car to get up to work to get the tools to get the car running.
Oh brother.

When I stair at my shoe laces in a meeting it' usually to
build love, patients and tolerance
when i stair at my shoe laces when sitting on a bench
under a tree at the park, it's most likely I'm trying to
focus on an object to start my meditation.
When i stair at my shoe laces while walking down a street,
it's probably becuase i stepped on dog ****.
Anyway, i don't have my shoes on. I'm barely awaken,
I'm having caffine and soaking in the sunlight.
I glad I read the post and replied to them.
I awaken with negative thoughts , by replying to this,
it stopped my negative thought activities.

Soaking in the sun? Ug! Is there still sun somewhere? No sun here today. Got our first real snow last night. Looks like this covering is here to stay now and the only light is the glare off of it. LoL
Ok, time to close the curtains again.
