Talking with my brother

[yaksha42]

Was talking with Robb on Yahoo Messenger.

Me: My summer break is only three weeks
Him: Woah, shitty.....
Me: Yeah, but I can get a bachelors degree in three years
Him: I'll still be a bachelor in three years


I'm trying to be nice to him. He just got out of heroine rehab a few days ago. He got the Japanese Kanji letters for Miserable and Awakening tattooed onto him.

Bachelor's degree in 3 years? Doesn't it normally take 2 years for it? :o

[yaksha42.livejournal.com]

No, normally for a full time student it's 4 years for a Bachelors. An Associates degree (which I already have) takes 2 years.

Ah yes I forgot 2 years for a AA 4 for a BA 6 for a Masters and 8 I think for a PHD :o

Heroine rehab? So he was dressing up in a Wonder Woman outfit before?

Whoops, scratch out that last "e" :-p


He was also telling me when he was in Portland when the war started. There were riots there (he wasn't participating in them ... so he says ... ). He got caught between a mob and a line of cops. He ended up being beaten with a stick, pepper sprayed, and stepped on by a horse.

He spent 4 days in the Uni hospital.

Hmf. If I were participating in a riot, I'd be proud of it.

But... ouch.
