[RE-INTRO] Hello, i'm Otus.

  1. Very interesting! Great into. I hope you enjoy, and have enjoyed, your time on EMC! I hope to see you do great things.
  2. Love your music interests... quite similar to mine... as being from BC also.

    You are still young, but i must say... another aspect of higher studies you likely wont have considered is the social side. Studying items of interest with others of similar interests is quite life changing for many. Most of us are shy in school... but the social side of higher ed is a vastly different world.

    In any event, Keep on rockin!
  3. Emulators aren't illegal. Downloading a copyrighted game's ROM is. Using ROM's online that were uploaded by others?... I'm not sure.
    The only surely legal way to use an emulator is to rip your own ROM's. However, this is in most cases very difficult and probably costly.
    But this thread isn't about emulators or ROM's, so I won't explain my personal opinion (because I have downloaded ROM's myself too and still might in the future).
  4. Very interesting. What are your favourite bands?

    As for the social aspect it's good, but it's not the only way to socialize. I don't want to spend a ton of money and go back to stressing myself at school again just to be able to socialize.

  7. I want you to hear this then: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpLv4M4paSI

    My favourite song at the moment, best intro ever, the drums are really one of the key parts of this song
  8. Great choice. I was a drummer before I sang, so that's what i tend to hear apart from the lyrics. I like too many songs to have a favorite, but when I played Bonham was my favorite drummer... heavy steady hard sound.

  9. Welcome back, Otus, and thank you for sharing! I hope to see you online once in a while!

    One thing I would comment on - you don't need to have a rock-solid plan for your future, but make sure you do take steps to secure your future. If mechanics and autobody work are what calls to you as a passion, pursue it wholeheartedly. Consider finding a business where you could apprentice at, and if you do end up going to college, focus your coursework on your passion.

    Good luck, and welcome!
