Default School has been sucking my 40k time.

Hey guys-
Sorry have not been around. I had to move out and go back to school. Plus I had three serious car accidents between my friends and family to deal with. So I have had no 40k time.

Anyways Im getting back into the groove. My friend bought me an exorcist as an xmas gift. But I'm trying to prioritize. Not sure what to paint first. LoL

Well that sucks... Nothing more that I can say. But Hey Im glad that you can join us again. I know what you mean when school is sucking up your time! Not only am I starting up a Fraternity, but Im a Resident Assistant too, not to mention my studies.... I have to paint 50 marines for my Adepticon Team Tournement, and I only have 3 modeled and painted....

But hey its awesome that you are added among the ranks again!

School isn't all bad. You could be working a crummy job somewhere. As for the painting, just do which ever one you think is gonna look cooler first, then try to top it with you next model!

I hate school with all my heart

At the same time i`m Magna *** Laude material... i know it doesn`t add up, and i should really be taking advantage of my oportunities and so on and so forth

BUT I HATE IT!!!

There are so many reasons i hate it it`s not even funny It`s quite sad really. But alas, i`ll finish this blasted thing with decent grades, astronomic grades if i put a little effort into it, and get a really nice and cozzy work palce

BUT I STILL HATE IT

Unlucky...school sucks, but what can you do? (Other than drop out, that is )

And I concur, paint the Exorcist!

Yeah...exorcist, And don't forget to post pics.

As for school...it's only bad when you don't like any of the following:
the classes,
the routine,
the teachers,
the principal,
the other students,
the whole getting up early thing,
the endless writing,
having to sit up and pay attention...

*Sighs*
I'm going to be alot less active on here and with 40k because of school (And well, band practises which, though damaging my ears , i tend to like more than 40k)

And yeah! The exorcist first! ;-;

Welcome back!

I'm in agreement that you should paint the exorcist first :P

School isn't so bad if you're genuinely interested in what it is you're studying. Otherwise, I wouldn't be going back! But yes, it does cut into 40k @_@

Hmm... not much to add
But on a similar topic:
my parents did NOT kill me after parent teacher interviews
WOOT!
yes i'm in grad year and it's pretty sad when a 17 year old guy is afraid of his parents.
But when your parents are hardcore-asian parents and would do ANYTHING (including taking a hammer to your entire GW hobby collection while you're asleep) to get your grades on track... BEWARE!

anyway, random quasi-pertinent subject lol
rant clear

And I thought I was having problems! Gee whiz.

Im in my second year of college and you all sound like you are going through hell.

Thanks for the concern everyone. My Dad's going in for surgery now because of his accident. But everything will get better.

40k is a good way to get my mind off of things, if I didn't play with a bunch of jerks all the time.

I'm in my second year of college too. College is a good way to find people who play, if you don't care what people think you could advertise a bit.

Everyone goes through the same level of hell no matter at what stage in life.

Why? because being at your current stage you are equipped (more or less) for the earlier stages. therefore relatively we all go through the same amount of hell!

lol

I'm in my senior year in high school, soon I'll be off to college and won't have to be worrying about my warhammer figures being taken away (which is like...9). Downside is I only get to take the PS2 game console with me, I'm leaving behind...a ton of others!

Anyway, I see school as this: I go to school, I go to college, I get a degree, a degree=higher paying job=make more money to use on warhammer.
