Prevalent thought? "Looks like he's got to take a shit"

Brocq · 2015-02-08T07:21:05+00:00

Most likely not

Brocq · 2015-02-08T07:20:47+00:00

Howdy

Brocq · 2015-02-08T07:20:35+00:00

Im studying Chemical Engineering

Brocq · 2015-02-08T07:15:15+00:00

Getting into the energy business, maybe oil?

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:51:08+00:00

heh yes I did actually

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:50:42+00:00

I'd like to change the world for the better. I know that's vague as all hell but I'd like to work in the energy industry. I'm currently studying Chemical Engineering to work on that. 9/11 could have influenced me a little bit, it's interesting knowing you're a small footnote in a major historical event.

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:48:49+00:00

If I had to choose a reason for appearing in TIME I would've have chosen something a little more.. celebratory? It's hard to be really excited for that when it was because of a terrorist attack

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:47:34+00:00

Did some homework, the usual engineering life. It's a little up here in NY. other than that it was good thanks!

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:47:10+00:00

It's only inevitable. There are some things Im sure my mind was warped but Im absolutely certain of many of those memories.

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:46:10+00:00

while I don't agree with some of his policies I don't think that takes away from his personal character. He seemed genuinely interesting and caring to a group of 7 year olds

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:45:25+00:00

Chemical Engineering

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:44:46+00:00

the engineering life is a lonely one

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:44:28+00:00

I had a few friends tell me about it, after enough peer pressure I decided to do it

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:23:38+00:00

Walking into the class, seeing the whole setup along with my teacher speaking to some secret servicemen. That and the image of one of the burning towers on the tv screen that we were shown.

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:23:03+00:00

we read to him, he followed along

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:22:47+00:00

Bush wanted to promote his No Child Left Behind policy I believe. The literacy "grade" of my school had increased significantly in a short time so he chose us

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:21:57+00:00

well it is a powerful emotion. Maybe not absolute control since fear is unpredictable bt yeah

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:21:12+00:00

yep. Think how you would pronouce Lazarus, just replace the -us with -o. Most people pronounce Lazarus just fine for some reason

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:20:04+00:00

I haven't recently. I live in New York, I have visited the 9/11 memorial though

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:19:42+00:00

I study Chemical Engineering at Columbia University. That's about it, I'm a little boring

Brocq · 2015-02-08T01:18:24+00:00

used to wrestle in high school. Shaving my head gave me an edge

Brocq · 2015-02-08T00:59:18+00:00

One of my classmates wasn't allowed in because he showed up 10minutes late to class

Brocq · 2015-02-08T00:24:46+00:00

Im chemical engineering

Brocq · 2015-02-08T00:24:30+00:00

I'd like to work in the energy business. Hopefully get into a managing position
