If you don't know what to do just yet - get the crap you need to do out of the way.

Go to community college. I play less $1300 per semester on books and classes. And I don't put out of pocket because i qualify for the Pell Grant, which I am awarded with no payback of about roughly 5,000 a year. So you get covered and receive a check in the mail for the money you didn't use.

That **** is so cash. Things will get more difficult when you choose to go to a four year college, though. but for the two years you're in community college, you should be good.
See my problem is I need to get a 2yr that specializes in something, then work smalltime, work my way up/go to school on weekends to get a better job. I can't do my basics, 4 yr, then just go out an explore. I lack the money to do internships. I have to work full time, so yeah =/. Unless I lucked out on a paid one, that is.

Unless you need to go to uni for your job, don't.

It's a buttload of money, and you don't always get something out of your degree.

Yay!

Unfortunately, speedfan is telling me that my laptop is on fire, so I may have to give it a bit of a break. :(
Get on when you can! :)

Cool, just add me and I'll get on that!! Wait who da LH leader of dis??

:phone:
Moi.

I added you and you're added to the LH chat. F8AL is the leader and ZIO and I are his 'helpers'.
I also added finalark as a 'helper'. He's cool and smart.

It's horrible I wish I were graduated already like F8AL :c
:troll:

I kinda miss being in school.
Not me.

I played Melee everyday during lunch in High School.

I really miss that.
I did too. Good times.

F8AL

I love you. <333333

Add me on Skype, people.

I just got a brilliant idea. Why don't we, the LH people, put a podcast about gaming together?

Finally platinumed Storm 2 :D

Never have to play that game again....
I got the 50 rank wins the cheap way.

Deidara. I tried to use Pain. I won like 10 with him, but the lag made it really annoying, so I used the cheap method. I got pretty good with Pain, though. (My favorite Naruto Character, btw).

Terrible. So many characters suck, so many broken. :/

Not at all.

-Minato is too fast
-Sage Mode's Naruto has like Exodia the Forbidden one Priority
-Pain's Shirai Tensei can counter the entire world.

For some reason, UJ (Ultimate Ninjutsu's) Can be canceled out by everything, there is no "priority" or so it seems.

Deidara's Birds... oh god his birds.

Fun game to platinum, but you're better off with MVC3 for competitive.

haha that's what i'm saying though. even mvc2 is competitively viable. i'm not trying to say that the game is competitively viable, but i'm just wondering what it's like if two good players play each other

if you have 4 characters who all have great attributes, then i'm sure each of those characters might have a chance against each other?

Eh, it's more like who gets what off first most of the time.

Also, online due to input lag Sage mode naruto wins everytime almost.

Also, Substitution Jutsu makes everything broken. Forgot to mention that. Just spam L2 when you're in a combo (or some Xbox button), and 90% of the time you'll escape the combo as long as you have 10% Chakra.

It's awesome. It's fun, but MVC [3 at least] far nicer too you. I mean one UJ off and you've lost pretty much. Making a come back is rare because they can dart around the field and stall or Sub. jutsu stall.

MvC [3 at least] has had comebacks at least.

It's fun, got a great adventure mode, and a great game to platinum/100%. Was my 9th platinum trophy actually ;). It just falls short competitively.

Speaking of FGs, you do any missions on MVC3 Chok? I'm 40 shy from my platinum on the game, and the capcom fighters are giving me a lot of trouble.

Ammy in particular. Weapon Change combos are so evil...

Well dern. I wish I lived somewhere where people amazing at this game could help me.

Actually, I've got one more trophy that's going to give me troubles.

Win 5 ranked matches in a row.

I think I'mma use the whole copy your save file after every win onto storage, then reload from that if you loose. I hate cheating, but the lag+ the fact I have 10wins/20losses yet I get paired with 200wins/60 losses a lot makes it hard to win...

MK is the same way... =/ Except I'm better and can hold my own there. Yet I loose online because lag is sooooo bad.
