Large Vent
I'm typing this from my school laptop at the moment, because I have gotten my desktop taken away. The desktop I recently spent upwards of $1000 upgrading for gaming and school use (I have film, at 8 gigs and After Effects is thousands of times better than 2 gigs and Windows Movie Maker). I understand this may seem like a childish rant, seeing as many of you are in your 20s and 30s, but the reality is that for the next four years I will have to adhere to my parent's rules.
The reason for losing my computer, however, is downright stupid and frustrating. My parents wanted me to get a "study skills tutor". I got 5 As and a B last year in my finals. I had a GPA of 3.7 last year. Granted I didn't study much at home for the finals, but I studied a shit load at school. And I still got great grades. They still force me to use the tutor.
They told me about the idea a week ago, almost instantaneously I informed them of how downright idiotic it was. They didn't care, they gave me a week to change my mind or I lost my computer, the whole time I was dead set against it and I would never do it.
So I lossed it. Normally I wouldn't be the one to rant, but this effects many of you too. I won't be on as much, and I won't be able to make many images for people (Sorry Adam), but I still have use of Photoshop Elements, and if I learn to use that well enough I will continue to make signatures.
Another thing is that the computer is app-locked, I can't install anything new on it. (Without hacking it, but thats instant expulsion) so I'm stuck with Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player, etc. The computer is also being constantly monitored, and I cannot clear history or anything on Internet Explorer (yet another feature they have blocked), so I beg that none of you post pornographic images while I am in the chat, or at least give me a warning so that I may leave you to your fun.
Oh, and Internet Explorer doesn't have a spell-check, so I'm sorry for any spelling errors.
EDIT: I also can't watch my sig at IWF, so I'm debating about turning it off or not. Since I almost never visit there anymore, I don't see why I should, but if I ever do it takes a year to do anything because of IE. Any help on the matter is greatly appreciated.

Got my computer back. Hopefully. I told them if I get a 4.0 in Quarter one, then I don't have to use the tutor. Shouldn't be too hard.

I have to get all As in the first half of the first semester.
Actually, all As and up to 2 Bs, because I have 2 honors classes, but still.

Good stuff, it is pretty ignorant to pay money to a tutor to tutor for a student getting above a 3.5, well, even a 3.0, when that money can go for something better, IMO.

Hardline, would you mind locking this thread? And since its no longer relevant, deleting it would be nice.
