I'm in my 4th year of the 6-year program at the Earnest Mario School of Pharmacy (EMSOP) at Rutgers University. Pharmacy school, like medical school, is a 4 year graduate level program in itself, but you only need 2 years of undergraduate studies before going to pharmacy school so many colleges offer 6 year programs directly out of high school which is what I did. So that puts me in the 2nd year of the actual graduate-level pharmacy curriculum, which is the most difficult yet. But I'm doing fine - academics have never been an issue for me, and while it certainly is tough, I never have been nor will I ever be worried about passing - and I thank God for that.
 

I'm not back on Gamespot by any stretch of the imagination, I'm simply posting this as an update in case anyone here still cares, and also because I'm bored.
 

In terms of gaming, I've been playing Halo for the past 2 years and I don't anticipate any other online multiplayer game grabbing my attention away from the Halo franchise for the foreseeable future. I had my time with Uncharted 3, but after a hiatus from it, I just don't find it that appealing anymore now that I've experienced Halo. When I get more time, I will be going through my still huge backlog of PS3 games - probably in the summer. But for now, if you want to play Halo 4 with me, add Chuck Finley BD (GT inspired by Burn Notice) on XBL and let me know GS sent you.
 

My PSN ID remains Pat_on_your_back and if I should happen to create a new one for the PS4, I will be sure to let you guys know. I do plan on playing GOW Ascension online, and also future Uncharted games online, but I doubt anything will replace Halo as my mainstay of online gaming. I may also try AC3 online but I haven't touched that game yet and it probably won't be so popular anymore by the time I get around to it, if ever.

Part of me misses this place, but the other parts are tired and want to go to sleep.
So to my former and current friends on GS, and anyone else reading this, peace ... until next time
