Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I also run an organization that puts on concerts around UCSB. It doesn't pay too well but its worth it to plan and run some pretty big concerts (some of them get like 8,000 people). I'm looking to get into the live music business once I'm done here.
Do you have rooms available often?

I just applied to UCSB, for the Linguistics program, either doing a double Linguistics/French or Linguistics/minor french, depends how ambitious I get, and by ambitious I mean the amount of determination I can muster to make money/get loans/hustle to stay in school as long as I can until I get paid to spill the overflow of knowledge onto others

Yah so I'm about to quit serving, cause I love people and I want to keep it that way, trying to find a non-profit job, still attending CC after years but I'm glad cause it took me this long to find out that I love Linguistics. Car free and fixed too!

Finishing up undergrad at Wabash College as a History/English double major. I also work part time as a bike mechanic and will be attending either Duke, Vandy, or Stetson Law School next year. I still gotta see who will give the most money.

I post messages in forums, then come back later and delete them whenever someone is happy about getting post #100 or 1000 or 10000, etc.
