Hey, everybody, how's it going? I know I've been gone for several months, but I am back and here to stay. I decided to give up on GameFAQs altogether about mid-January, but I got the urge to come back and post, you know how I am! :D
So, a lot has happened the past few months. My love life totally fails... The thing with Gabby was a huge blow up. Basically, I'm not man enough for her, so even if she breaks up with her boyfriend, there will never be an "us" because of my height, strength, and "boyish features" and immaturity. So, yeah... Although, I have a hook up opportunity this summer with someone who is actually attracted to me, so screw her...
As far as life in general, I've been busy finishing up my senior year of high school and getting ready to go to Penn State Berks in the fall. I can't believe I'm graduating in a few months and going off to college. That's been about everything with me... How is everybody else doing?
Welcome back!

Indeed, here's your last post:

I assume TonytheFFMan was banned for some kind of MBH or Hellhole escapades?
…you know how I am!
We sure do.
The thing with Gabby was a huge blow up.
Gabby? Last I heard you were pursuing this Angelina character.
So what will you study in college, history? As for me, I'll enter a PhD program in cognitive psychology at Stony Brook in August.

Nah, it's the inconsistency with the mods, man. They ban the people who actually try and discuss the games on the message boards and let the trolls stay because they 'appear' to be the civilized poster. I set a couple of FF fanboys straight for crying at the fact that FFXIII wasn't like the previous FFs.
Gabby? Last I heard you were pursuing this Angelina character.
Ah, yes, the stringer... She agreed to give dating me a shot and then called me the next day and said she wasn't interested after all, blaming me and saying that I "guilted" her into saying yes. I have no more feelings for her, as I don't have anymore feelings for Gabby. With me, the turn off from women is their shallowness. Both were very shallow and not nice, so I am not attracted to them anymore.

Ah, that's changed since we last talked. There is an overabundance of secondary History teachers (and I didn't do my research and realized the college I'm going to doesn't have a secondary education major); thus, I've changed my major to elementary education. I'm still interested in minoring in performing arts for acting, however.
Good luck with the psychology! :)

Good to see you too, LP. I decided to stray away from video game characters or Final Fantasy, so I chose something relevant to my life. "MagnificentMurano" was not within the character limit. :(

As am I with his... He still won't give our love a chance!!! :P
But seriously, I am glad to be back. I vowed never to return to GameFAQs because I was fed up with the hypocrisy of the mods and the stupidity of how the forums are. I mean, you can't even discuss a game anymore without someone coming in and starting trouble. I'm not going to let that keep me down, though. Mountie is here to stay!
Oh, you did wind up going to Stony Brook, Kodi?

Yep! I was admitted only to Stony Brook and Caltech, and at Caltech, the faculty member I was most interested in working with turns out not to be taking new students, and the department leans heavily towards neuroscience and economics, whereas I'm increasingly leaning towards social psychology. And I really like the two people I expect to work with at Stony Brook.
I'm sure plenty of people would think me mad for making such a choice. It does sting to think of applying to postdoctoral or faculty positions at elite schools without a degree from an elite school. Oh well.
And yes, I am aware of the irony of I, who hate people, becoming a social psychologist.

Completely missed the point I was somewhat trying to make...
Isn't Stony Brook a big Chemical Engineering school? I know a few friends that go there and they're all chemical engineers... Undergrad of course.

Welcome back, big dog.
I'm guessing it's not Penn State proper, is it? Not College Park. Not Beaver Stadium.

Nah, man, it's Penn State Berks. I prefer the much smaller campus because I will get to connect with my professors and classmates much easier. I don't want to be a number. I want to be known as Anthony, not Student Number 1,453... <_<
Have fun being bored as hell 90% of the time...

Boring? Hardly... The two girls I live with are part of the Campus Life board, which is my access to all of the activities. Not to mention, they know a lot of people. This is my chance to be in a "popular" crowd. I hope I don't mess it up.
And before anybody says anything, yes, girls. I've known them for four years from our 4H drama club. Plus, they both have boyfriends, so yeah... :P
Sounds like a college age remake of Three is Company.
But anyways, I would have been significantly more amused if your username was Jesus and you had posted this topic on Sunday.

I just can't fathom the "small school" thing. There was nothing better than spending every Saturday with 92,000 of my closest friends...

Thanks, Nala! =)
As for the "small school" thing, I was never really a popular kind of guy, so I'm not into the whole "big school" setting. If I manage to make it with a smaller school setting, that means I can succeed no matter what. Knowing who I am and what I would like, I would hate a large campus setting.
