University of Maryland woohoo - Tilted Forum Project - TFP - Sexuality, Philosophy and Political Discussion

paparora · 08-19-2008, 10:15 PM

Hi,

My name is Piyush, it is Indian. I have been living in the States for as long as I can remember, and currently attend University of Maryland College Park (Go Terps!). I am majoring in Accounting/Finance but strongly considering the medical field. My hobbies consist of reading, Redskins, women, music, and the usual.

I was lured into these forums when I did a query in Google on 'remembering movie quotes', which I absolutely cannot do but am envious of the people who can. It made me feel better knowing that I am not the only one with this "problem", and that most people who memorize the one-liners are usually people who watch the tv/movie multiple times.

The forums look great, and I cannot wait to become a part of this community.

Nice to have you here, Piyush.

We do have a fair number of collegiates participating, and it is always a pleasure to have yet another voice their opinions.

Welcome, and enjoy the forum.

Hello from one tormented college student to another!

Isn't college grand? Can't wait till I'm done this upcoming June. What about you?

paparora · 08-20-2008, 01:06 AM

You mean to say you are excited about being out there in the real world, with responsibility and all that jazz. People ask me who my role model is, and no I dont say Mother Teresa, Gandhi, MLK..for me the role model is Van Wilder. joking..

What are you studying?

Well I'm an SEC and Independent guy so we won't clash when it comes to football. But I think the Redskins are gonna be a problem when the Pack destroy them on Wildcard Weekend this year.

Welcome man, my name is Taylor. You'll love it here.
