well any savings i have is the first thing to go when the college assesses my family's financial situation unfortunately.... So if i have it, they will make me use it towards college, if i don't have it, i will get more grant money... Isn't that hilarious?

Is that allowed?! Isn't that strictly personal information?
Here in the Netherlands, everyone is allowed to get a money grant for four years (the amount of time most studies take). It's the same amount of money for everyone.

I'd rather pay off my student debt in small increments once working again.

yeah but can you really taste the difference or is it all about the lack of steroids?

it is lack of steroids and antibiotics PLUS it contains much more health benefits (many more vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids) and there is a lot less fat. I think my organic eggs have 50% less saturated fat.
Yeah a wii would be pretty sweet.

Does organic meat have a higher protein content?

My next $400 chunk of extra cash is being blown on a 2gb DDR pair and a new outfit.
Other things on my list:
Additional clothes
GeForce 7900 GTX
12" JL W6v2

That's not a bad idea either. I've been wanting to pick up a 17" macbook or maybe a dell and toss kubuntu on it.

I'm saving up for a $4500 computer right now ;[ I've made a goal to record a full CD by the end of next year. I have everything I need except a bass guitar and a new computer to record everything. So now I have to save up for a few months to get that crap.

I'd probably buy materials for a workbench to build in my garage.

I'd spend a few cents on the cheapest yamaka I could find, put it on, and stick the rest in a bank account somewhere. Shalom! Mihail!
