Me being the A-hole highschool student plug it in. Don't get me wrong my uncle is an engineer and he totally agrees with me that most (including him) are booksmart but no streetsmarts
haha.. i don't know about most engineers. i'm an engineer, afterall. i think a lot of people just don't care while they're in college. my room mate, however, doesn't have a clue.

Think of all the money that I'll be wasting:sad:
damn.. we're paying $950 for our one bedroom apartment.. i think it's better to live with someone while you're in college. if you find a good room mate, it'll make life more interesting.
