Ahh college, how I wish I could remember more of mine!

Seriously, have fun and enjoy it. Some of the people you meet there will be friends for life.

Oh yeah, and study or something like that. Any idea what you will major in? Besides girls and parties.

Well when I'm not doing any of that stuff, I'll be studying aerospace engineering and hopefully get a job with Lockheed Martin or Boeing after college.

I remeber universerty.
It was lots of messing about, buying stuff and drink with your student loan, not doing any work at all, moking the history students (who had no work at all, yet still whinged about 'all the work' they had to do), and finaly, realise you have coursework or an exam tomorrow and pull a paniced all nighter to save your universaty carear...

Congratulations. I havent a clue about US Universitys, is that a good one, what will you study?

I was fairly well behaved at Uni, I only went into the student bar once (for my free drink) and didnt want to go back. I lived about 5 miles from the campus so I could stay at home. Studied Electronic and Electrical Engineering so naturally I now work in IT!?

You'll have fun.

Yes 24 hour shops are fantastic, if somewhat sureal, going into a shop at 3 in the morning where you are outnumbered by the staff 20 to 1... Subways being open to 4am was always a godsend too.

Yes, A&M is one of the best state schools in Texas. They have a long history as a school of tradition, which I like very much. As to what I will study, I said before I will major in Aerospace Engineering.

Aerospace eh? I used to work for BAE SYSTEMS and spent a few years working on systems for Tornados and various Airbus and Boeing aircraft. It was really interesting work.

My friend and neighbor works for Lockheed Martin in King of Prussia, PA. He's an engineer, but we don't know what he does, he's not allowed to tell us. The FBI even came to our street interviewing some of his neighbors to ask routine questions.
