My name is Jen, I go to school, and occasionally learn things. I love James Dean, Hanson, Sloppy Firsts and Second Helpings by Megan McCafferty, Fall Out Boy, Elton John and Billy Joel. These make me overly qualified to give advice ESPECIALLY since I spend the vast majority of my time watching and obsesing over Oprah.
I've been through some stuff, and watched even more drama on TV, so I can help with your problems, no matter what your story is Wishbone.

to those of you who go to college: is 18 hours a semester a little too much? i'm a highschool senior, graduating early, and i also want to get through college as fast as possible too. i also want to work while i'm there... does this mean that i'd have no social life whatsoever? i don't want to kill myself with schoolwork like i have been this whole year but i also want to get out of there asap, i have my reasons.

It really depends on your program. If the majority of your classes are lectures, followed by a multiple choice exam and midterm, or an essay or two then it should be no problem. However if you have more intense classes, like with labs, assignments, presentations and what not, it may be too overwhelming.
An easier way to complete college faster with out being bogged down during the year is to take summer classes. I'm not really sure of the American credit system, but you should be able to earn two per summer.
It's almost impossible not to have a social life while at college, especially if you are living on campus, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

thanx, summer classes sound like a pretty good idea. i know that college always means having a social life, especially in UT Austin (which is where i'm going). so basically, i have to mix the types of classes i take? i'll have that in mind when i pick my classes =)
