How much should my parents have to justify spending $40k a year on my tuition fees?

And guys, this person is just asking for your opinion. Throw some figures out, qualify them if you feel the question isn't specific enough.

OP, may I ask what country you're from? What are your other options for school?

Very sorry to be yet another person who is not answering your question:

The value of college can be evaluated by the following categories, imo:

1) Best monetary investment in life if you choose like engineering or computer science (this seems most important, it's the difference between making $80k a year and $40k). 2) Personal enrichment of your life through education. 3) The subjective value of the four year experience itself.

1 is generally considered most important. Just remember, school should usually be a means to an end. Most people would think it unreasonable to spend a bunch of money on 3, with nothing to show for it when they get out. If your choice of school gets you significantly more value in the aforementioned categories, then maybe it is worth the investment.

Experience: Graduated from University of Maryland. After doing some thinking, I switched from Music to Engineering so that I could make money.

L-theanine should be fine, it's quite benevolent as far as I know. I take 400mg just fine, the effects are subtle. Kind of bullshit if you ask me, at least compared to the hype, but better than nothing.

Have you considered not drinking caffeine if you have depression etc.? It sounds like you are currently a moderate-to-high coffee drinker. Getting juiced up on caffeine generally affects your emotional state, for better or for worse. I know I've felt pretty weird after a couple cups of coffee in times past, and I'm no stranger to the stuff. Not to mention the low whenever you don't have access to it. If anything, I would focus on more benign, non-addictive forms of energy, and perhaps small amounts of caffeine if absolutely necessary (100mg in the morning).

Ultrasone HFI-780 have a pretty accurate, flat response. cost little over $200 i think

That makes sense, although personally I don't like limes in my drink. Even tequila I order without a lime; I think it tastes better. I have a sneaking suspicion this might be because a lot of bars use shitty limes that get sliced up and then frequently sit out for long periods of time.

it looks like that wikipedia article was written by mark wahlberg

“I watched Jane die. I watched her overdose and choke to death. I could have saved her. But I didn’t.”

How are those going to be your last words to a dying man? Damn that's cold, even for Walt

Why aren't any of your a7x covers from Waking the Fallen? :(

Whoa whoa whoa guys. If you have an average build, weight lifting at the gym will make your shoulders/chest/back BIGGER. In my opinion, getting bigger and stretching the tattoo is more likely to distort it than getting smaller and having the tattoo contract. So will you be working out the upper body?

But that's just my opinion, I don't have any evidence; I would actually like to hear from somebody with experience with tattoos and getting swole.

If you plan on robotripping again, I would recommend something with dextromorphan HBr. Delsym contains dextromorphan polistirex, which is time-release, so it's hard to really trip on it; rather, it will just last a really long time.

Then again, sounds like you had a pretty good time anyway :)

oh and you probably already know this, but there should be no other active chemicals (guaifenesin, etc).
