I feel lately that I don’t have much control over my life, that I’m somewhat helpless to change things and that I’m not really worth people’s time or attention. It doesn’t help that most of my friends have moved on after graduation and are either getting married and having kids or leaving state. I just got my first post-grad job and I start a week from Monday, but I’m just a little bummed out lately that I’m kind of standing still and am a little lonely. I also feel that I haven’t been living as much as I would like. Meaning in high school I didn’t get involved (mostly due to me having moved here right before freshman year and my mom being really controlling of where/when/what I did) and in college I didn’t really find a niche either (and I wish I had transferred after freshman year since the rest of the experience wasn’t worth the money I spent that I could have gotten elsewhere). What do I do?

“Louisiana Republicans supported Gov. Bobby Jindal’s overhaul of the state’s education system, which includes a voucher program that allows state funds to be used to send students to religiously-affiliated schools — until they began to realize that Islamic schools could also be among the institutions supported by taxpayer funds.”
Then loser goes on to say “I actually support funding for teaching the fundamentals of America’s Founding Fathers’ religion, which is Christianity, in public schools or private schools…Unfortunately it will not be limited to the Founders’ religion……I do not support using public funds for teaching Islam anywhere here in Louisiana.http://thinkprogress.org/education/2012/…
Yea since most of our founding fathers were Deist and Atheists, I say we starting using that money and building more Atheist schools. Right in the heart of the bible belt

Hey everyone.
What I am looking for is a dropshipping service located in the European Union because I’ll be targeting customers within the EU. Now I’m not looking for a huge company that has a state of the art website, a live chat help maybe and loads of employees because the seller (me) will be paying for all that through increased prices. What I’m looking for is maybe a few names of very basic dropship services that I can buy from because the most important thing to me is being able to buy the items cheap, of course reliability is a plus too but that’s why I’m looking for recommendations.
So if anyone can name or link me to any websites within the EU that they know of, it would be much appreciated, also I haven’t specified a product category because although I have my preferences and some past experience telling me what may be best, I am open to whatever (any niche) that can make a good profit.
Thanks.

Posted on 25 February 2012. Tags: 10 years, college, current engineering, engineer, engineering degree, engineering software, flexible hours, job, length of time, niche, state, Very, Work
I’m about to graduate with an engineering degree from a large state school but have found my niche in tutoring. I am VERY successful with my tutoring and making almost as much as I would being an engineer, but have more flexible hours and easy work. So what I’m trying to ask is could I still get an engineering job say 5-10 years later if I had no experience being an engineer right after college or would my degree be obsolete because of the length of time? I obviously plan on keeping up with current engineering software (solidworks, excel, mathlab etc..) so would this atleast get me an entry job or would I be too outdated?
